Your sad and must be Repub. Many things that Clinton did for this country that is Pres. Clinton was good. But there was a lot that was not so good. For one Repub will have a feel day with her. She is not a strong woman at all, if so Bill would have been in check years ago with the first sandal and the women.
She has voted on NAFA sending jobs to other countries. Maybe you need to do some research. Hillary was a Repub. before Dem. she was a water girl.
Now the recent lies really have me going dun dun. I rather someone talk to me from the heart instead of reading to me the speech.....
Go do some resereach before trying to attack an area you do not have a clue toooooo.

Hello cspan2,
Well darling we meet again!!! I have a difficult time believing that you would know a stereotypical female or understand her behavior if she blowed you everyday for 20 years!!! You boys need to lighten up on the hate of the Clinton woman and try to focus on the issues that separate these candidiates. Your behavior is unacceptable and silly. Grow up and talk about the issues and let the pussy breathe.

:_| I DO KNOW: They are all a bunch of self centered, self righteous, pompus little tyrants with delusions of god-hood. I can't wait until they all get to the Pearly Gates; aren't they in for a big surprize, when they get tossed into HELL for being total, unredeemable, asswipe towellettes, to burn forever, and ever. It is the least GOD can do for unleashing these bedwetting, pimple-dicked, retards on us in the first place.
As for the DICK, and his 'So' comment: just prooves, beyond the shadow of a doubt, that all these guys want, and all they have ever wanted, is war, death, murder, and have NEVER cared, not for one billionth, of one billionth of one second about anything or anyone except their own profit, and well-being. In fact: THEY WANT US ALL TO DIE, so we will quit bothering them while they strip this planet of everything, including life. Even value-less dirt comes before you, or your safety, or the lives of your children. They are purposely shovelling more and more of us into the ovens for their own profit. (They get paid by the body, I guess.)(Lyndon Johnson's body counts ring a fucking bell?)
If ANYONE is the "Hitler" here it is George W. Bush, and his Uber-Goober, goose-stepping pal, Dick The DICK Cheney. Not to mention the rest of the Hitler Youth, like Rice, Powell, Rumsfuck, Ashcroft...
("Haldeman, Eirlichman, Mitchell, and Dean...") And it will NEVER end. When they're done on the road, they'll bring it on home for their little victory dance. And that will on our graves.:O
George and Dick are the terrorists, the murderers, the thieves, the liars, and the profiteers. That is all any of them have ever been. It is all they will ever be. And little Johnny McCain, "the hero" (to noone but himself) fits right in.
:| As John Sinclair said:"They would jail us all if they could -- ALL in the name of Freedom, Democracy, and the unspeakable obscenity they call the American Way!"

I read alot... And I try not to push my opinion on anyone but my closest friends and poor husband but I saw something about Lynn Cheney and Dickey that just kept me up last night.

She is a part of the American Enterprise Institute for Public Policy Research and this think tank went to Washington D.C to fight the PTSD diagonosis of alot of the service members returning from the Operating Theaters in SWA claiming that it is effecting the redeployment of troops and causing too many servicemembers to be discharged for a disorder that is most likely stress or some other pre-exsisting condition.

I just can't understand the disconnect these people. A few days ago Dicks little "SO" comment and yesterday on ABC Dick said that "This war is obviously hardest on the president" Right... I don't even know anymore.

To whom this may concern,


My name is Eddie. I am 15 and a huge Bill Maher fan. My Uncle is Alan Paul of The Manhattan Transfer and I think it would be a great opportunity and idea to have him on the panel for the week of April 11th.
My uncle is a Barack Obama supporter and is really politically active and I believe he would be an interesting candidate for the panel. I live in Michigan and I will be out in L.A. that week working on some Recordings and I just think it's a cool Idea. I myself am also A Musician and am also huge into Politics. Bill has it right, thats for sure. I would really appreciate the idea to be brought to the forefront.

Thanks a lot,

Peace N Love
Eddie

I have a question to ask. Am I the only democrat that is bothered by the Super Delegates? I have always believed that in this country, one person--one vote. Why do these democrats get more votes than I do? A party who is supposed to be for the people--but a chosen group of elite
may decide our next president. Why doesn't anyone seem to have a problem with this???????????

A nice thought.

But I like to think that if we look close enough, even those that seem like "pitiful self-serving, self-righteous ever hateful, habitual liar[s]" have redeeming qualities. Sometimes, in pursuit of defending our beliefs, we sink to using vile hyperbole as a manifestation of our passion. I'm guilty of this too. My new mission statement is to weigh the legitimate criticisms and let the angry, ignorant rhetoric roll off my back.

You know what I really wish Bill would look into the camera and say. I wish he would look into the camera and say exactly what I think about a huge chunk of people in this country who think they hold the moral high ground on many liberals. If it weren't for intelligent libs do they not see how much harder life would be and then they bitch about Bill telling it like it is on drugs, religion, sex. Hell, we have even created them a Vchip in all their homes and they still want to complain about the stuff shown on their sets and they still wanna try to tell us what we can and cannot say oon TV.In my opinion that means they are just too damn dumb to operate it properly and once we take power again I think we ought just take them all away. Let them get all their news from thier churches. Let the blind lead the blind, it's what they do everyday on Fox News. Consevatives always wanna seem to make it a war. A war on Christmas, a war on Easter, a way on prayer in school. They insist on starting wars when we are in no way telling them what to believe or not believe. All most of us want is for it to be acceptable to everyone and do with it what you may and leave the ones of us that don't think the way you do the hell alone. That's all we ask.
And another chord was struck with me the other night watching the show as well when it was suggested we rename the penny the dollar. We really might as well. Look at what we are fixing to do in two months. This Bush White House is going to be responsible for sending us all checks, or so it appears. Who is really sending those checks? China. The people poisioning our society with their junk products that we are just stupid enough to buy is loaning us this money because when you are in debt you have no money to send. PERIOD. So in order to spur not our economy but our willingness to keep the shit flowing in the Chinese are way more than willing to send us a whooping $300 bucks. It's pocket change compared to the fortune they will make in return. And pushing those seemingly small sums to all Americans is going to put even more money out there which will kill the value of the dollar even more and you think oil is high now just wait till those checks clear.
Wish I could go on but that is all the time I have for now.

I think alot of conservatives aren't seeing what should be the scariest thing to them should be. Lieberman seems in some sort of odd way to be the puppet master behind McCain. Did you see how fast McCain corrected himself without thinking twice once Joe told him what he meant. I'm starting to wonder if watching McCain traveling around the world if we weren't just seeing some sick twisted thrid installment of Weekend at Bernie's. We saw the whole trip McCain being followed by Graham and Lieberman and never ever saying anything without them. Makes me wonder....

An open letter to Barack Obama: Please do not give disingenuous people a thought, as they do not mean you or anyone but themselves any good, and that rarely works. Stay the course, give your message and earnest Americans will respond, for I believe, like you, that most Americans are great people, but the pitiful self-serving, self-righteous ever hateful habitual liar is like rotten meat, you want to stay far away as possible or bury it.

PEACE & LOVE

Wow! A natural leader? Your joking right?
That's like saying president Bush is a great president.
You too must have fallen for those so-called inspirational speeches. Maybe if he quotes M. L. King and Kennedy in new speeches you might say he's God and or you'll give your life for him too.
Fact is, Hilary has more experience in so many more ways than him and McCain too.

You Obama fools better wake and face the reality of racism/reverse racism, the lack of real experience and now the deception on his part for spinning off the Rev. Wright situation. Before it's too late and the Obama illusion bombs our democratic presidency away to a Mc Cain victory.
Why do you think most Republicans in the media keep saying they are worried about going against Obama?
What A Joke! They want you to play into their trap like so many have already, so they can beat Obama easily, rather then go against a "white" strong, experienced & highly politically connected Hilary Clinton.
Oh Yes! If Obama was a white man, he would have not won the black vote in most states, that the Clintons have had for many years before he came along.
As Democrats let's not vote stupidly like the Republicans did with president Bush, not only voting him to office once, but twice. Get A Clue American Obama Followers!
