Politicians Should Think Before They SpeakTommi Avicolli-Meccabyline‚ Apr. 11‚ 2008Guess who said the following: “What you have to spew and spread is extremely dangerous ... it's dangerous for our children to even know that your philosophy exists!” Was it Hillary Clinton telling off General Petraeus at the recent Armed Services Committee hearing on the Iraq War as he once again played lapdog for an administration intent on remaining in the Middle East to secure oil for America, at a price tag of $177-million-a day? Was it Barack Obama confronting the evil folks who run Fox News, a media outlet that shamelessly promotes right-wing causes in its “news” broadcasts? No. It was Illinois State Representative Monique Davis, telling an atheist that he was unwelcome at a State Government Administration Committee hearing into shenanigans involving a Baptist church. |
