First, my apologies to Carol Burnett, for paraphrasing her line in her legendary "Gone With The Wind" sendup. It was so pitch-perfect, I don't know how she got thru it, wearing that fabulous Bob Mackey creation, complete with curtain rod.

But since it seems like it's getting more and more acceptable to tell the truth about Senator Hillary Clinton, as long as Barack Obama gets credit for it, I thought I'd offer this:
Watch below the fold....

sgary's diary :: ::

Hillary says "Lobbyists Are People too," says she's going to keep taking their money, she's going to keep inviting them to the table.

John Edwards thinks it may take more than lobbyists changing from red to blue neckties to change a corrupt system

  I briefly posted it the other night and salo savaged me, or at least I took his 1,000 constructive criticisms that way.
  My sister helped me screw up my courage by insisting I at least post it somewhere other than YouTube.
  I'm just tryin' to have some fun here.

has been one of my favorite TV moments for so long. Carol Burnett is the best, and the "Gone With The Wind" skit was one of the funniest things I have ever watched. Here's part of it
