Samantha's stepping down is not enough... she should be publically executed in Central Park!! And then her remains- fed to the pidgeons- and then after that- the pidgeons should be publically executed and these remains should be fed to... and on, and on... 'Monster' calling CANNOT be tolerated in America! This crime is right up there with 'talking-loud-in-church'!! Jesse Califano

So when one is in a contest it is unseemly to try to win, now?

Everyone knows Hillary is a bitch and not a monster.

Well given that all politicians aren't human how is calling one a monster going to offend anyone except monsters?

Samantha Power was raising the issue of genocide in Darfur before most people ever heard the word. She's an outstanding writer and advocate for human rights and it was a great credit to Obama that she was on his campaign. She deserves better than to be pilloried in the press like is being done.

It's so sad that speaking the truth gets you fired. I'm glad Obama's not running a negative campaign but I feel like being honest about the Clinton campaign is to smear it.

i find these comments ironic. obama has been using his stooges to attack clinton for a long time now. you can say what you want about clinton attacking obama (which by the way has been quite tame considering past elections) but at least she attacks head on and doesnt hide behind others woth a fake above the fray BS as obmama does.

I'm getting tired of Clinton and her surrogates being able to throw all sorts of innuendos and slurs at their opponents and when stuff gets thrown at her, she cries and demands that people get fired and apologize. It's such an annoying double standard. IMO, she's using her gender as a shield for all sorts of crappy behavior. If she can't take it, she shouldn't dish it out.

I love Samantha Power, that's quite unfortunate.

monster: any animal or human grotesquely deviating from the normal shape, behavior, or character. Hillary has grotesquely deviated from normal Democratic value through her votes in the Senate on several major bills. She's only been able to slow down Barack Obama by lifting entire chapters from the Karl Rove playbook. So... what's the fuss about calling her a monster? It's not like she called her any of the other names that the right wing has labeled her with over the past years?
