Robert Scheer on Hillary Obliterating Iran " Clinton Threatens to ‘Obliterate’ Iran" -- How proud the Clintonistas must be. They have learned how to rival what Hillary once termed the “vast right-wing conspiracy” in the effort to destroy a viable Democratic leader who dares to stand in the way of their ambitions. Sen. Clinton’s eminently sensible and centrist—to a fault— opponent is now viewed as weak and even vaguely unpatriotic because he is thoughtful. Neither Karl Rove nor Dick Morris could have done a better job.
