It’s been discussed here and everywhere how the Republicans resort to fear to try to win. Watch FOX sometimes. The line now is that it looks like Hillary is going to be the next president. They’re trying to scare their viewers into getting behind the GOP nominee even if its a cross-dresser or a Mormon – something they haven’t shown an inclination to do in numbers large enough to be of comfort to the GOP and it’s media outlet, Fox.

It’s really not fair that you single out FOX, all the news outlets do the same thing, just FOX has put a conservative spin on it to capture the conservative audience. CNN & PMSNBC is just as worthless.

Also your comments about Mormons seemed a little on the negative side. Thought you libs were supposed to be “open minded” to things. Do you feel the same way about JFK? He was Catholic you know.

I remember something about Oven Mitt’s makeup bill. Died without a trace, while the haircut lives on in infamy.

I don’t get it. Why are you comparing the two? One was $400 for a single 30-minute haircut, the other was $2000 over a 4-year period. Didn’t Billy do something similar while holding up flights when he was President?

And what about the Merckel back rub?

Hillary’s laugh works fine by me. And if she want’s to laugh at stupid questions, I say GO FOR IT girl!

So unless she answers-it IS an election seasonon and she IS fair game. Playing the victim card for everyhting is getting very tiresome for people who would like to hear some answers.

You missed the opportunity to see The Imperial Campaign in action. Nothing that can be bought was left out. …

But for all that, it was disappointing. She rambles, she offers up a lot of platitudes, with a few programs where she gets into details (mainly healthcare). My mind kept wandering. …

unthreatening-looking women. . .teachers. . . child care workers. . .
what is that? I see too much picking apart of HRC here. So you don’t support her. Okay. Let’s hear why you support another candidate.

I think the previous writer gave a hint, that “My mind kept wandering.”

I think we have some very big problems which need to be addressed…monumental really, and Clinton doesn’t address them very well.

Out of Iraq
Health Care reform
retirement pension reform
infrastructure rebuilding
mortgage crisis repair
environmental protection
new energy sources
world fair trade
fix New Orleans
fix the military
fight Al Qaeda
review 9/11
fix education (if it can be done)
fight poverty
improve world relations
revive anti-nuclear proliferation
revive nuclear draw-downs
increase minimum wage AGAIN!
strengthen unions
improve port and border security
improve immigrations problem
revive stem cell research
get religion out of government

I mean, the list goes on and on and on. Hillary has said she’ll work on 3 or 4 of these things.

I’ll vote for John Edwards and his big bold ideas for a better America!

Somehow the image of a line of Repubs wearing orange jump suits, standing in line along a prison wall and whistling while they tap their feet in unison (a la the Rockettes) just makes me smile.

If you think Faux is using Clinton to scare the base NOW, with three effing months until the first primary, if we nominate her, just think what they’ll be doing in the general.

One mistake that a lot of her supporters are making is this:

They’re assuming that Iraq will at least stay at the same level of mayhem, and not get worse. Anyone want to bet 8 more years of a republican president on THAT?

Because, with her ducking the tough questions on that most important of issues now, think about this; if Iraq starts to unspinnably implode, where is the “mistake” word from her? How can she go after george bush and the GOP for what’s going on, when she has spent so long in bed with them?

(As if she shouldn’t ALREADY be going after them…and apologizing, as John Edwards has done repeatedly, for that authorizing vote.)

And, re-reading it, he’s not as hard on Bill, as I thought, but the whole piece is him talking about Hillary, in civil terms. Which is something NO bushCo-sucking columnist would be doing, if they didn’t know that she is the ONLY chance they have to keep the white house, and retake the congress.
