I think we are in for a lot of this. Stuff like this comment:
But I have to say - this does not surprise me, and for sure - Hillary would not have done this to the gay community.
STOP IT!
I am not going to sit here as people say "Hillary would not have done this" to everything Obama does that you do not like. It is an outright stupid argument. That is right. It is STUPID. In all truth, no one knows what Hillary would have done BECAUSE SHE LOST. You can make all the claims that you want. I can claim she would have done the exact same thing. That is also a stupid argument.
And these arguments are unfair. You cannot disprove them. I cannot disprove that Hillary would have picked a more tolerant person to deliver her invocation.
What is this argument if not left over anger from the primaries? We get it. We all get it. You are oh so sad that Hillary was not our nominee. It only added insult to injury that you were wrong about her being the ONLY one who can win in the general. Not only did Obama win, but he won big. We Obama supporters did everything we could to bring you in. As someone who left my job for the Obama campaign, I saw all this first hand. I cannot even begin to count up all the hours we spent trying to convince Clinton supporters, who should have already been on our side anyways, that Obama was the right choice. We wasted valuable hours that could have been spent reaching out to real undecideds. At first, I held the naïve belief that once the convention was over, they would chill out. I was wrong. I thought that once we won the general election, we would stop hearing complaints about who was at the top of our ticket. Apparently, I was wrong again.
So fucking stop it! Barack Obama is our President. Hillary Clinton is not! So lose the fucking "Hillary 08" tag line. Join us in a conversation about where to move this country forward. But unless Hillary Clinton herself, comes out and says, "I would not have done that." Then SHUT THE FUCK UP! You do not know that. I do not know that. The only person who has even a vague idea of the truth on that one is Hillary. And guess what. She is a solid American, so she is serving her country and not being a crying, sore loser.
