We have heard many candidates say that we should be focused on the way forward in Iraq.

How can our nation or the world move forward if we do not try our best to understand how our nation was led into a war of choice?

Do you think that those who created and dessiminated false WMD intelligence should be held accountable?

If not what kind of message does this send to our children, the world and the families that have lost relatives (both Americans and Iraqi’s) in this unnecessary war?

-Are you willing to tackle this issue?
-What would you do differently?
-Do you think Israel should abide by UN Resolution 242 and other UN resolutions that they are in violation of?
-And do you think that India, Israel and Pakistan should sign the Non-Proliferation Treaty? And are you willing to encourage them to do so?

the two common linkages of the presidential teams since then are either bush/clinton and skull/bones

1980-88, bush as vp, s/b member
1988-92, bush as p, s/b member
1992-2000, clinton as p, s/b member
2000-08, bush as p, s/b member

even in 2004, the two candidates were both s/b members, even the wife of the losing candidate was previously married to a s/b member before she married another one

given 2008, why would anyone in their right mind vote for hillary, as it would continue the bush/clinton duopoly, and as the wife of a s/b member, same shit, differnt iteration

can we please stop doing this to ourselves ??

anyone but clinton, anyone but a republican

Oh, I guess I imagined a post I read last week where someone was advocating violence as a means to accomplish our goals. A few posts later this person was rebuked by another FDLer, however there was no official condemnation, therefore, a third party reading might assume that this type of activity is at least tacitly condoned. Next, what I’m suggesting is playing offense rather than defense. O”Reily, unfortunately, has an audience, and I think any opportunity to make him look less credible rather than more credible, should be taken advantage of.

That’s loser talk. To hell with Bill O’Reilly. He is full of shit. His smear has no validity.

The truth is that any site with open comments is going to get its share of wackos. That is the basis for O’Reilly’s smear.

The attitude expressed above seems to say “it’s bad if O’Reilly says it is bad.” That is false.

It is normal and fine that sites with open comments get occasional wackos. It’s no big deal, even if Bill say it is. It is nothing that needs to be defended, even if Bill has convinced you otherwise.

Bill O’Reilly is full of shit.

“I hear a lot about how fundraising is like a shadow primary, and that the amount of money someone can raise is an indicator of how well they will perform as a candidate. Do you believe that the amount of money someone raises is an indicator of how well they can govern as President, and if so, why?”

I’d like to follow on this theme:

Senator Clinton,

Can you explain to all of us how to make large profits in commodities trading without knowing anything about how?

You’ve said you were involved during your husband’s presidency, so I have to wonder if you were supportive of his receiving campaign monies from abroad. Did you know it was illegal?

Did you okay the campaign fund-raiser V.P. Al Gore participated in at the Buddhist monastery?

When you screwed-up the health care reform you began to receive large campaign contributions from health care industry companies. How can we trust you will ever create a health care reform to give Americans the care they deserve and need?

Now, your campaign is receiving large contributions. Who is giving so much and what are they buying?

Aside from all the usual issues and policies I wonder what issue or personality is most capable of driving you into a frenzy and into ranting like a loon (as we are all wont to do at times), or do you always maintain your icy exterior ALL of the time?

I saw C-SPAN place a picture of Sen. “John Edwards (D)” next to a picture of your husband, former president “Bill Clinton (D)” and I have to wonder just which Clinton is running for president. Who is the Clinton team fielding against Senators Obama and Edwards and the rest of the field?

Would Bill be living in the White House and advising you daily, as you did while he was president? Who would supervise the interns?

The only Constitutional remedy for the crimes of this Bush administration is impeachment by the House and removal from office upon conviction in the Senate.

What steps have you taken to make this happen?

Quick question: the Beeb is reporting that that &^%*$&# has banned torture Bush bans terror suspect torture, but I’ve yet to see it reported elsewhere. I’m now worried about what else is about to blow up – e.g. what is being covered up / planned. tin-foil underwear anyone?

This. C.I.A. Allowed to Resume Interrogations.
grr. *stomps away crinkling metallically*
