Here's one that could be answered if she released her tax returns:

Hillary,
How much money does Bill Clinton earn from his relationship with Ron Burkle (http://www.judicialwatch.org/jwnews/090106.htm - broken link), a contributor to your Senate campaigns, and Burkle’s company, Yucaipa? Are these funds currently available in bank accounts to which you have access? Will you use these funds for your campaign? How about Bill’s speaking fees, some paid for by foreign interests and governments – what are the financial benefits to you?

BTW, this isn't a question for your pastor. It's a question for you, Hillary.

OK then. Here's another one for you Hillary:

Why did you fail to report more than $2 million (http://www.judicialwatch.org/hrccomplaint.shtml - broken link) in contributions to your Senate 2000 campaign? (Testimony from the criminal investigation and trial of your National Finance Director, David Rosen, shows you knew the total costs of the fundraiser, yet failed to accurately report them.)

Anybody?

Something else to ponder while we listen to the sound of crickets:

Goldman Sachs, another corporation that generously funded your Senate campaign, received a $25-million grant from the Department of Housing and Urban Development and a $1.65-billion bond in federal 9/11 aid. You went to the groundbreaking ceremony of their new 43-story headquarters in 2005 and said you were "proud to have worked with my colleagues in Congress to secure $20 billion in federal aid for New York" and "major employers like Goldman Sachs needed to know they had a partner in government." That year, the company was worth $43.3 billion and turned a $5.6 billion profit. Why should the government give them this money?

And when are we going to see those earmark requests? What are you hiding?

Post them to Hillary's blog or something. I don't think she's here Art.

Wow, Ron Burkle! I had to work a dossier up on that dude when I worked in Chicago.

Well, you are an ardent supporter. Why don't you give it a whirl? How do you think she'll answer these questions when John McCain and the Republicans are asking them?

Better those questions than McCain asking "Mr. Obama, do you really believe that AIDs was invented to commit genocide against blacks?"

Why would he ask him that? Has Obama ever said anything like that?

It would be like asking McCain if he thought Katrina hit New Orleans because gay people live there. It would be a dumb thing to ask.

The man who married Obama and put his hands on his children to baptize them said that. It remains Mr. Obama's responsiblity to utterly condemn and reject the words of his "mentor."

The only dumb thing here is the attitude of denial on the part of folks who deny Jeremiah Wright's injection of hatred into this campaign.

Obama used Wright when he needed black authenticity. Now it's time for him to throw that hate freak under the bus.

The chickens, so to speak, have come home to roost...

Good one.

Obama has been trying to run strictly on a positive message, Hillary hasn't been hit with anything yet, and she's going to go into the general election completely unprepared. And likely she believes that the Republicans like Rush Limbaugh and Ann Coulter have really switched over to her side.

Why would Obama have to answer something like that? You Clinton supporters are trying to lynch Obama for things someone else believed and said.

And how absurd is it really for a black man over 70's years old that lived back when the Tuskegee Experiment was revealed, to lack total trust in the government?
