Clintons can't both be right

Three short years ago, Hillary Rodham Clinton made an impassioned plea for her inalienable right to criticize and disagree with our elected government, accurately describing measured dissent as patriotic.

Now her husband, the former president, reincarnates his predictably disingenuous self in a lame attempt to link today's tea party movement with the horrific domestic terrorism brought to bear at Oklahoma City in 1995. Ongoing desperate efforts to discredit and taint engaged Americans, through infiltration and intimidation, will fail miserably as the silent majority slumbers no longer.

Tea party on, dudes. Our esteemed secretary of state had it right.
