Why don't you simply do a Google search and read the Wiki article if you really want to know? Her accomplishments are too many to rewrite into a list and, frankly, I wouldn't go to the trouble because I don't think you're really that interested.

Coming from Europe, i can tell you that we did have a laugh at the "Bill Sticking" days of the Clintons. Bill having affairs with women is a issue between Bill and Hillary. If Bill had been the local roadsweeper, no one would have cared. He was, however, the president of the United States. Imagine being worried about your daughter becoming an intern to Bill in case he took advantage of her. We could not understand how America watched Bill looking into the camera saying " I did NOT have sexual relations with that woman" and then didn't impeach him. Unfortunately Hillary has shown that she will put up with anything to get what she wants, even deceipt. My wife is American and cannot stand Hillary. She says she cannot believe a word she says. If sleeping with the president makes you qualified to become President, maybe Jennifer Flowers should also run. Maybe as VP, then Hillary and Jen could compare notes?

Sorry, but no daughter of mine would be throwing herself at men in power. I would have raised her with enough smarts and self-esteem to make her own way, the proper way. I would be FAR more concerned about the Republican Congressmen trying to proposition my son in a restroom, even outside of D.C. Of course, my son would likely break their tapping feet and wandering hands.

Otherwise, your really sexist remarks implying that Hillary is not intelligent or accomplished are offensive. Perhaps you need to actually read Hillary's biography before asserting that she had to sleep her way to success.

No need to read the "ramblings" of a Maggie Thatcher wannabee.

Uh, Thatcher is an ultra-conservative and has nothing in common with a moderate Democrat. As for her "ramblings," I suggested that you read her biography -- you know, a profile that someone else has written -- not her autobiography.

My wife says that she didn't sleep her way to the top but she doesn't mind cutting throats and clawing eyes out to get there!

I haven't read her Biography, but Dick Morris, who was a close adviser to the Clintons, has and he disputes a few of the "facts" that she has written. He should know.

If you wish to engage in intelligent discussion, perhaps you need to read about Hillary Clinton's record yourself instead of merely repeating your wife's hyperbole? Just a suggestion.

Your wife is then very sexist(clawing eyes out) and/or naive about how ANY politician gets to the top.

I get the impression that you don't want to read anything that may disagree with your ideas but why don't you try reading what MALE republicans did to McCain when he dared to compete with bushy when he was running for president.....would THAT be described as "clawing eyes out" ? Cutting throats?
