It's wonderful to have such a healthy conversation about all of the ideas that were floated. However, can an individual of controversy, such as Hillary's, be trusted with her Judgment. - look, even if it's not about hosting sleazy enemies of the US, even on a domestic agenda, such as her failed health care reforms - which if you remeber was a major agenda for her husband's first term, even on a demestic scale, Hillary used bad judgement, and failed misreably. Can she be trusted????

I'm not sure any politico can be trusted these days. Romney has played bad pool recently switching from his position on some very significant issues that would be considered moderate or even progressive to meet the conservative vote. Rudy has disgraced himself as far as I am concerned with his turn-coat antics. Very few of the guys at bat are batting high numbers for me. And McCain, who was never my favourite, seems to be one of few sticking to his platform.

Who can we trust?

I won't kill Hillary for the health care initiative. The country clearly wasn't ready for it at the time because it was too "socialist", and she misread that. But in my opinion it wasn't a mistake that shocked the conscience. However, I'd look to her war vote (and her stubborn refusal to admit it was a mistake) as a more damning indictment of her judgment. I believe that she is basically a shill who is trying to see which the way wind blows before taking a stand on any issue, and someone who will be beholden to the corporate bottom line if elected.

But the REAL question is what color font would she have used?

Hillary Clinton was actually a 'Goldwater Girl' in 1964 as a teenager. Her wealthy parents from the upscale area of Chicago where staunch republicans.

While attending college at Wellesley near Boston, she made a conversion to becoming a Democrat and a liberal.

People do change. I was a Javitts Republican, or a NYS Republican. Now I'm registered Independent, and vote choice.

Back on topic, Hillary Clinton is NOT Presidential material. Anyone who thinks Noam Chomsky is a genius should move to Moscow.

What is her word? What day or what hour did she say this word? We pretty much know what Bush has to say but it's too hard to keep playing ping pong with Hilary. My neck gets tired.

After reading so many posts regarding various government ideas, here is the latest Associated Press release regarding Hillary's "TODAY" idea of government. If the polls should change, look out for a new agenda!!
Quote:
NEW YORK - Pledging to rebuild "the competence of government and the confidence of the American people," Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton says she wants to streamline the functions of the federal government and boost its accountability to taxpayers...
Moderator cut: Provide a link instead of copying everything here, please

Oh - mb919 - regarding the Hillary's print color - If she reads that post I think she would opt for no color - to be politically correct!

By which you mean conservative, like red state? She's definitely more conservative than Obama or Edwards, or maybe even the "conservative" president they just elected in France...

Or do you mean communist? I didn't know she supported abolishing private property and having the government run the whole economy with an iron fist! Sly woman, hiding her true intentions so methodically and convincingly.
