Poorly Positioned to Point Fingers

Obviously, I disagree on policy questions with Barack Obama. But to read that Hillary Clinton's campaign has the audacity to call Obama's political action committee a "slush fund" barely passes the laugh test.

Apparently, the Clintons want Americans to believe that there's something out of the ordinary in Obama's PAC giving funds to politicians who endorsed him.

Whatever the merits of the criticism, it barely passes the laugh test coming from the woman who decided to launch her senatorial bid when her husband was still president. Indeed, her husband's administration -- the one where she gained all her supposed "experience" -- was famous for paying off political supporters with nights in the Lincoln Bedroom and so much, much more.

Obama essentially responded by telling Hillary to knock off the attacks, noting that everything that's been done is legal. That's pretty restrained in my book, given what he could have said.
