This is too funny. Hillary's policies weren't and aren't tremendously different than Obama's. If you think that Hillary wouldn't have been in favor of a stimulus, rescuing various business concerns, or expanding social programs, especially health care, you are smoking some serious dope. The difference that Hillary was referring to (besides foreign policy issues) is that she wouldn't have even made a token attempt at bi-partisanship. Give the election results, Hillary would have taken Republican names and kicked them where the sun doesn't shine. If you think for a second that Obama is at war with FOX, Hillary's version would have been a full out nuclear exchange.
......... The difference that Hillary was referring to (besides foreign policy issues) is that she wouldn't have even made a token attempt at bi-partisanship.
That's EXACTLY what Obama made,....a 'token' attempt, nothing more.
People forget that Hillary is running the show just like Cheney did with Bush. Hillary had her people get the top appointee posts( Rahm, Holder,) her enemies got kicked to the curb( Kerrey, Richardson).
oh that's rich! Seriously ... that's just HIGH-larious!
Richardson poofed the pooch when he switched allegiances to Obama from the Clintons. Richardson was Clinton's guy for a long long time. He gambled, he failed. That one, I'll give ya, but the others ... nah.
I wanted Hilary in the first place, because I know she is smart and experienced, but I suspect she carried to much baggage to beat Obama, who was unknown and fresh and someone people could project their hopes on.
I am not a Hillary fan but maybe just maybe Democrats voted for the wrong person. It seems to be playing out that way.
Yes they did vote for the wrong person. The right person was Mike Gravel. Hillary remains what she was in the primaries and all her life: the cattle futures swindler, the butcher of Waco, a conniving, insincere, AIPAC-owned, surgically-altered political prostitute.
I was horrified when Obama gave her the Secretary of State job, but as she was his closest competitor he couldn't reasonably make her junior ambassador to Bhutan or something--as much as I would've enjoyed that scenario.
Look at who's lost touch with reality. I would post a long grocery list of Obama's (what would you call them? : not faux pas, not miscues, not errors..........you would have to call them.....) calamities, but what would be the point?
Although I disagree with his political views in many areas, the only thing I'd classify as a calamity I've seen in the Obama administration has been his failure to totally repudiate Bush's policies on Iraq, torture, assassinations, etc.
I'm not sure what else is a calamity--the lack of war with Iran? The rebounding GDP? What exactly would it be?
