Default The Spirit Of Giving

Right on the Mark: The Spirit Of Giving

With Christmas just around the corner presidential candidates are making Christmas campaign ads. Yesterday I told you about the controversy over Mike Huckabee's ad. I also mentioned Giuliani & Obama. Today, I want to talk about the Hillary Clinton ad...

...Ah, the spirit of giving is easy when it's not your money.

Are you Chris Matthews? Geeez! He was calling her Evita Peron. It wasn't the best commercial but come on. Do you ever get tired of finding reasons to kick this gal?

Who's kicking?

It's not about the best or worst commercial --- it's about the promises.

The universal pre-k really cranks me off...

I went without to ensure my son went to pre-school & was ready for kindergarten at age 4. He will graduate high school & start college when he's 17 & he also holds a 3.7 gpa. He takes honors math & college prep for everything else. Am I bragging? Well, maybe a little. I'm damn proud of my son. It all started by making pre-k or pre-school a priority. I didn't need a damn government program to do it. Some will make it a priority & some won't. This isn't kicking anyone. This is just telling like it is.

My son wants to go to Georgia Tech for engineering & become an architect.

Hey sorry but after watching Matthews go crazt over her commercial. Where he basically went on the attack over her commercial.(Which I didn't care for) Then I saw you start in.
My point is that other commercials had the same sort of announcments and they didn't get the attack he gave her.
Don't get the idea I agree with her on all this stuff. Because I don't. I just think she gets dumped on an awful lot.
