The Obama Protocols
Hillary! is in trouble for the inferences her assassins have drawn from her comments about the history of the Democratic primary process. Whatever this is, it clearly illustrates the Obama Protocols, wherein all speech, even that which has nothing to do with him, is deemed out of bounds if it can be declared an attack on Barack Obama, and you'd better bet that if Obama's peeps think it can be, it will be. The results are entirely predictable: even President George W. Bush, making a speech a world away in the Knesset on the occasion of Israel's 60th birthday that made no mention of Obama whatsoever, is on notice.
Conversely, every stupid, dishonest, dangerous, inept, wrong, incorrect, misinformed, uneducated, vacuous, squirrely, ignorant, idiotic, totalitarian or otherwise objectionable utterance by the Obama camp is protected under the Barack Obama Campaign Speech Protection Act of 2008.
For example, which of these constitutes a threat by a prominent female Democrat to assassinate Barack Obama:
or
Answer: that's not the point.
Hillary Clinton perhaps inartfully answered a question about staying in the race, and she's being pilloried.
Michelle Obama played the race card by suggesting that because Obama is black, she could reasonably expect him to be shot between her home and the local gas station. She is fomenting racial enmity. Despite all that that implies about the aspiring First Lady's view of race relations in America, her comment vanished into the ether.
Pointing that out will soon be deemed an attack on Michelle (and the MSM) and therefore unacceptable speech.
Operation Chaos continues.
