    Comment: just wanted to share some additional information with the readers here. Have anyone been watching fox news they have been bashing Obama every single day - I mean they are on a roll - keeping the same headlines going and going they are trying to throw the kitchen sink at Obama. Well as I listened last night I thought it was pretty interesting for Hannity to say Obama would raise taxes on people like him (he must make over (250k yr) and he is angry about that. Well I wonder why he didn't say Hillary would do the same because she as well plans to raise taxes on people making 200k and up. The reason he didn't mention Hillary is because it is there stragedy to get as many Hillary suporters as possible to keep this negative debate going so they can rip her up in November- they want Hillary to win not because they support her it's because they know McCain will beat her bad. Obama has the better chance and the momentum and that makes them sick, just listen to them it gets annoying the bashing is all day long. Don't get distracted folks let's push for change!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Comment: PATHOLOGICAL LIARS. DON'T KNOW THEY ARE LYING.

    PERHAPS THAT IS HILLARY CLINTONS PROBLEM?

    DOES SEEM STRANGE TO TAKE CHANCE OF GETTING CAUGHT IN A LIE.

    EVEN CHILDREN KNOW NOT TO LIE.

    PERHAPS HILLARY LEARNED FROM BILL THE MASTER FABRICATOR "I DID NOT HAVE SEX WITH THAT WOMAN---------MISS LEWIINSKI" ?

    BUT, BILL GOT CAUGHT TOO DIDN'T HE?

    I THOUGHT CHRISTIANS WERE TAUGHT NOT TO LIE?

    BILL AND HILLARY----------------------ATHEISTS REALLY ?

    Comment: to peace101: you are wrong in stating "Obama, who I don't ever remember hear brag about himself,"
    Here are some examples:
    He brag he was a constitutional law professor, but he was only a law lecturer.
    He said getting no money from oil companies, actually he received large sum of donation from individuals related to the oil industries.
    In a formal speech celebrating the Selma march, he tried to credit JFK for his effort bringing his late father in Kenya to United States, which is not true.
    Anyway, it has been reported that Obama, Sr. was a habitual bragger, Obama, Jr is no better.

    Comment: As this story broke I was surprised that Hillary would knowingly lie about any incident where there were definitely cameras and video present. Did she think no one would look at the old footage? That is very poor judgement. Or did she actually believe she experienced a dangerous mission? I watched one of the speeches when she told this story and she didn't do the rapid eye-blinking most liers will. I find this very disturbing that she is misremembering to the extent she is totally changing the reality of her experience to the extent she is now the hero. Notice the difference in how Hillary presents herself. There is a lot of bragging going on. That's what this whole scene she created was about, bragging how brave she was. Contrast that with Obama, who I don't ever remember hear brag about himself, despite a lot of accomplishments. Which leader will choose more wisely, a bragger or someone not self-centered?

    Comment: Hillary Clinton is a fraud and should retire from politics. It is embarrassing that she represents New York as senator of this wonderful state. Maybe the people will wise up after her great defeat for the whitehous title. It's funny to think that all the damage that has been exposed with respect to her so called "experience" and her "character" goes back to herself. She is her own worst enemy. The constant lies and the arrogant demeanor, the sense of "entitlement" that we as Americans should bow down to her and coronate her as "Queen/President" is totally absurd. I can't tell you that I approve of Obama as a good candidate but I can tell you with certainty that Hillary is awful. AWFUL !!!

    The fact that her Chief political strategist has been asked to resign (wink, wink) is laughable. He is still in her campaign but as a "pollster". How naive can Hillary think we are. I suppose this is all part of the "right wing" conspiracy which is out to get her. Hillary's photo should be used in all dictionaries as reference to what a typical liar and a cheat, err I mean, politician looks like. And why don't we add the word -- LOSER!

    Comment: As a open-minded Democrat (as opposed to the more commonly used Liberal-minded Dem) I have been weighing both candidates on many issues, while leaning more towards Hillary all the time because of the experience factor. But as a vehicle for change, I have seriously considered that Obama might be a better tool. He has a charasmatic, inspirational talent that draws people wanting change. And he HAD a honest demeanor. My biggest concern with Hillary was the previous scandals in her past. IE: whitewater, etc. Because she has looked out for herself in the past, I felt this might be an issue in the future. Until now. Okay, Hillary "mis-spoke" regarding the sniper fire surrounding her arrival to Bosnia. As this "SCANDAL" has evolved, it in many ways resembles her stories concerning this event. It grew, much like a fisherman's "one that got away" story. Much like the winning basket in a high school heroes rememberance story. It grew and became a more dangerous mission. That does not diminish the fact that it happened, nor the importance of the diplomatic good she accomplished. And, since then, I have discovered we have another "mis-speaker" on the ballot. He doesn't admit his lies - he denies. He didn't hear words spoken from the pulpit as a weekly litany. He was never present and has no knowledge of his america-bashing, anti-white friend and mentor (!!) saying any of the numerous crap that has been exposed and that I will not repeat, even as a reference point. This was a deciding factor for me. No more sitting on the fence. I know where I can trust Hillary - with my income, my life, my children, and my country. I do not know if she will find a way to benefit from it. At this point I do not care. I do not know if I can trust Obama with my life, etc., he has no experience and is not very forthcoming with any plans he might have. As for my country, it appears that he is surrounded with individuals who do not value America very much (HIS WIFE, HIS PASTOR-FRIEND-MENTOR), so I definitely cannot trust my America (my home) to this man.

    If Obama is the only choice I have against John McCain, I will either write in my candidate, vote McCain, or refrain from voting. And judging from conversations in the breakroom at work, I am not the only one that feels this way. Americans can vote for someone who is richer than us. We can vote for someone who is a different sex, or a different color - it is 2007 after all. But Americans will not vote for someone who will sit by while their intimates bad mouth America. Not in America. Freedome of speech, yes. My friend, no. My vote, most definitely not.

    Comment: The woman and newborn have no name. The hospital that claims it did not happen, has no name. So the media is exposing a non-story. How does the hospital give out medical information on a patient so easily? Who signed the release? I am sure if they wanted to they could PROVE the story; somewhere, someone probably lived and died that story.

    Why aren't you covering the fact that the first black man to be this close to possibly being President did not go to Menphis! He has a debt to MLK. He is facing a great responsibility. If his nomination means the DEMs lose to the GOP----he will have a legacy to run from.

    Comment: ROFLMAO Pull in them claws ... goodness. Hillary just has a little trouble with reality. Recently talking healthcare she has been talking about that poor pregnant woman without insurance that the hospital turned away and ended up in heaven. The story was not true. Go figure. Have a nice day all. :-) PS I am kinda happy that it didn't happen - it was a sad sad story.

    • Posted By: Illinois Voter @ 04/07/2008 00:48:54

      Comment: It did happen, the details of the story that Hillary was told by a Sheriff Deputy in Ohio was not accurate. Hillary did not know the Sheriff Deputy had his facts wrong. The woman did die, only she died 2 weeks after giving birth. She did have insurance coverage, but did not have the required $100.00 fee to be admitted to the hospital. So Hillary did tell the story as she was told the story in good faith.

    Comment: Newsweek readers seem to forget the relevance of some of the largest untruths to be told: Large volumes of documents relating to the Iran-Contra scandal were destroyed or withheld from investigators by Reagan administration officials. The affair is still shrouded in secrecy. After the weapon sales were revealed in November 1986, President Ronald Reagan appeared on national television and denied that they had occurred. The foreign branch of the US intelligence community still denies that they helped bin Laden recruit radical Islamic "fighters" that they trained to fire hand-held missiles, to detonate explosives and employ guerrilla tactics; they provided funding for the Taliban during the Soviet-Afghanistan War, which, ultimately, helped bring about the demise of the Soviet Union. In violation of the Boland Amendment, Reagan outwardly lied to the American public and yet his illustrious presidency remains untarnished. Share this while calling pledged delegates.

    One refrains from arguing the merits of William Jefferson Clintons statesmanship, eight years of peace and prosperity, but leaves another to ponder this: When world-renown economic scholar, Alan Greenspan, was asked who he thought was the most capable and smartest man he ever worked with, he both penned and answered it was, Bill Clinton. His wife is no less capable.

    By LISSA MUSCATINE and MELANNE VERVEER
    Published: April 1, 2008

    Washington

    AS staff members who traveled with the first lady, Hillary Rodham
    Clinton, to Bosnia in March 1996, we have followed with more than
    passing interest the extensive news coverage of her landing in Tuzla.
    Video footage clearly shows that Mrs. Clinton?s assertions that she
    landed ?under fire? and that the arrival ceremony was canceled were
    wrong. She said so herself last week.

    Yet even since she acknowledged her mistake, the commentary has
    continued unabated. Reports are now being embellished (to borrow the
    term du jour) to suggest that Bosnia was not really a danger zone. Her
    visiting American troops on a peacekeeping mission in a hostile
    environment is now being treated as if it were a trip to the beach.
    During a week of nonstop coverage, few journalists went beyond the
    irresistible video footage to ask what else happened on this trip and
    how Mrs. Clinton might have erred in the details about the landing in
    Tuzla. So here are some facts that provide context:

    We flew in a C-17 cargo plane from Germany to Bosnia precisely because
    it was capable of steep descents and ascents into and out of areas of
    conflict. We were issued flak jackets on the plane before landing in
    Tuzla and were told the tarmac ceremony might be canceled or curtailed
    due to sniper fire from the surrounding hillsides. The first lady and
    Chelsea Clinton were moved to the armored cockpit for the landing.
    Armored vehicles were placed around the tarmac, and Apache helicopters
    hovered overhead.

    In a recent e-mail message to a British blogger, Ejup Ganic, who was the
    acting president of Bosnia during Mrs. Clinton?s visit, wrote: ?I
    remember that visit quite well. Although the NATO troops were in Tuzla,
    we still believed that some positions on the hills were occupied by
    radical Serbs, so I was worried about the overall safety.? The planned
    welcoming ceremony was shortened, he said, but it still lasted a bit
    longer than expected because a nongovernment group brought along a
    little girl to sing to the first lady.

    Later, Mrs. Clinton flew from Tuzla to two military outposts by
    helicopter, escorted by Apache gunships.

    As has been reported, Mrs. Clinton?s trip to Bosnia included a U.S.O.
    component with the comedian Sinbad and the singer Sheryl Crow. The
    helicopters that carried them to performances at American base camps
    zigzagg

      Comment: Later, Mrs. Clinton flew from Tuzla to two military outposts by
      helicopter, escorted by Apache gunships.

      As has been reported, Mrs. Clinton?s trip to Bosnia included a U.S.O.
      component with the comedian Sinbad and the singer Sheryl Crow. The
      helicopters that carried them to performances at American base camps
      zigzagged just above the trees to avoid potential ground fire, according
      to Carey Cavanaugh, who was then a State Department official traveling
      with Sinbad, and helicopters flew alongside to deal with the threat of
      anti-aircraft fire or snipers. These facts explain why many of us,
      including the first lady, believed that the conditions on the ground
      were precarious. We were worried about sniper fire and were prepared to
      rush off the tarmac when we landed.

      In their single-minded focus on the landing in Tuzla, reporters and
      commentators have omitted any discussion of what Mrs. Clinton
      accomplished on her trip. In addition to showing support for our troops
      and for the peace accords in Bosnia, Mrs. Clinton met with Bosnian
      religious leaders, women and community activists and, when she returned
      to Washington, was able to give administration officials her firsthand
      assessment of the nascent reconstruction effort.

      After leaving Bosnia, she met with leaders of Turkey and Greece and in
      those countries promoted efforts on behalf of international development
      and democracy. In Istanbul, five years before 9/11, Mrs. Clinton
      presciently convened representatives of some of the world?s major
      religions to advance a dialogue about religious reconciliation and ways
      to counter religious extremism.

      The video of her arrival on the tarmac in Bosnia may be great theater
      and easy fodder for commentators, but it shouldn?t be allowed to obscure
      what else was happening on this important trip when the cameras weren?t
      rolling.

    Comment: Can we be serious for one moment? Would any of us forget being shot at or be confused if it actually happened? Or would we be mistaken or forget the details and instead have the creative version really be so explicit and totally favorable? What has happened to the American conscience and what does it all mean? Our government boldly and continually lies to us, to the world and, within the government, to each other and then regrettably, it is simply accepted. The deceptions are so frequent and blatant it is apparent that it is being done with total contempt for the American people. From everything about Iraq, Afghanistan and the Middle East to the economy, the results of the government???s deficit mentality and the real costs to the average American, the subterfuge is simply unending. It is even being blatantly done by the candidates in their presidential campaigning and people are accepting it there too and then deciding on their preference based on what is said. Why? We can see the gains the politicians achieve in satisfying their insatiable egos and in the substantial financial support, including for endowing them when they leave office, but ??? why do the people ???look the other way???? How do the people ever justify supporting someone they know is lying (exaggerating, embellishing, misrepresenting, misspeaking,,,), someone who boldly demonstrates a self-indulgent personality you just cannot trust? How can our representatives/candidates be so arrogant and just know they can get away with it? Do they simply understand that the people are so self-focused themselves and just want to be told something, anything that allows them to believe what they want to believe? Has America lost its conscience and no longer seeks honesty, integrity and character in its representatives because those values are now literally un-American, with everyone out to get all they can in anyway they can and with no questions asked? Corporate America has demonstrated a lot of that thinking and there even with the government???s assistance; is that also the prevalent thinking among the voters? If that is the case, where will it take us? Like with the pyramid schemes, the logic of greed just doesn???t work and it simply has to eventually end in default. Two societies and times that come to mind are the fall of the Roman Empire and the rise of Nazi Germany.

    Comment: Hillary Clinton needs to begin to prepare her exit from the race... Several sources in her own camp admit that she has virtually no chance of winning the nomination except if she succeeds in finding James Hoffa's body and moving it in Obama's flower garden to put the blame on him.

    Since there is little chance for the body to be found, she makes all these negative assertions. The goal seems to be the 2012 election. By putting enough doubts on Obama, Hillary is hoping that he will lose to McCain and that she or Chelsea (who is also an experienced leader after her journey at the White House mansion) will be able to run in 2012. The Clintons might then be able to capitalize again with the rental of the Lincoln Bedroom to big lobbyists.

    Whatever happens, since the Judas story with Richardson, we know that Hillary believes in ressurection; she or her husband Bill would be Jesus if I understood correctly the story. So, we can assume that Hillary will not hesitate to play the kamikaze with this election or the next one since she will probably reborn again, as the savior.

    Hillary Clinton needs to begin to prepare her exit from the race before she hurts herself or others.

    Comment: Its not about cutting of meaningful discussion of differencesof position or focus. Hillary Clinton cannot engage in debate without demonizing her opponent. This personality flew ( among others) gives the Republicans the advantage as this nasty race continues. Hillary Clinton cannot get beyond herself and do what is best for the Democrats towin in November. Shame on the Democratic party if they cannot get it done after an incompetant Republican administration for the last seven years.

    Comment: On November 4, 2008, WE THE PEOPLE will cast a vote to determine whom we hire as President of our United States of America. The campaigning done by the candidates is comparable to the interview process that all of us have experienced when looking for a position of employment. The Republican Party has chosen their candidate that will go through the last interview process. The Democratic Party is still in the process of picking their nominee. The one thing that as always disqualified a potential employee from further consideration is a bold face lie. When Hillary Clinton lied about being under fire in Tuzla, Bosnia she at that point put her self in a position to not be considered any more and forfeited the right to move on to the next step of interview process.
    ???I miss spoke??? she said, Colin Powell miss spoke when addressing the United Nations in reference to the WMDs of Sadam Husien President Bush misspoke. Hillary Clinton just plain lied about what happened or she plainly cannot remember. If her memory is that bad then she cannot be trusted with the Presidency of the United States and the welfare of our defense force. With her Lie she attempted to steal the Valor of every American that served our Nation under enemy fire from the Revolution to the present, McCain earned his. I will not support a liar and a thief.

    The people of Pennsylvania are called to action. End this Charade so we can move on to the next step in the process of choosing between two men of integrity as to which will be the next President of the United States.

        Comment: The issues that are important to blue collar workers, or to ANYONE who see themselves as a "regular person," are the issues that matter to Barack Obama....he'll do good things for American workers, his plan will create jobs and protect working class and middle class Americans......the Republicans have destroyed the working class and middle class with their policies that favor the rich, the CEO's, corporate America....while they get richer and richer.....and the rest of us...who are mostly Democrats, suffer! There is a good reason why unions have backed Obama...he's FOR the working person!

    Comment: The reason Hillary Clinton is waiting so long to release her tax documents isn't that they're dirty or scandalous..no politician is that stupid and she knew she was going to run for president so you betcha they're squeaky clean. It's because she's obscenely wealthy. The kind of wealthy that can "loan" itself $5,000,000.00. And her base of voters is poor people.

    Comment: Bush Sr. Running the Reagan White House (Reagon had Alzheimer's remeber)
    Bush Senior Running the first Bush White house (war with Iraq-successful),
    Bill Clinton Running the Clinton White House (scandals),
    Bill Clinton running the White house again (more scandals-hillary's too whitewater, rose law firm, chinese contributions to campaign funds, drug lords pardoned),
    Bush Jr. running the white house (war with Afghanistan and the Taliban, possibly justified)
    Bush Jr. running the second Bush white house (war with Iraq, unjustified, unsuccessfully)

    And everyone wonders why both Hillary and Bill Clinton have said something nice about McCain..who'll be running the Bush white house again. Can you see the really rich powerful people taking turns here..

    Comment: Below is a sampling of some dates and events Clinton engaged in as First Lady on foreign policy, which are part of the 11,000 pages released by the National Archives and put out by the Clinton campaign upon request. I think the importance of this information revolves around Clinton's curiosity and outreach to nations, as well as her travels and interests as First Lady, which was one of activism. As I've said many times before, "experience" to be president comes when you're actually in the job itself, but Clinton's vast travels and exposure to cultures and the world is valuable, as is her commitment to engagement in the world on many levels. This information was also requested by a foreign journalist on the conference call yesterday. This is not a complete list, but an example of Clinton's involvement in foreign policy related events as First Lady:

    Bill Clinton Praises McCain Again

    Friday, March 28, 2008 1:45 PM

    By: Newsmax Staff

    For the second time in a week, Bill Clinton offered high praise for Republican presidential nominee John McCain ??? the candidate who could end up squaring off against Clinton???s wife Hillary.

    At a stop in rural Pennsylvania on Thursday, Bill told the gathering that McCain is a ???moderate??? who ???has given all you can give for this country without dying for it.???

    He said McCain is on the right side in opposing the torture of enemy combatants and on the global warming issue, which ???just about crosses the bridge for [Republicans].???

    Clinton backs off support for torture

    By: Ben Smith
    Sep 27, 2007 01:05 AM EST

    Senator Hillary Clinton (N.Y.) ended her support for legalized torture at a debate in New Hampshire Wednesday night, splitting with her husband ??? and with her own recent stance on the charged issue.

    (http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0907/6050.html)

    SO WHAT GIVES?

    BILL CLINTON IS NOW PRAISING JOHN MCCAIN FOR MORALLY CORRECT POSITIONS THAT HE HIMSELF DOES NOT HOLD?

    FULL METAL JACKET HILLARY AND THE DEAR HUNTER BILL WILL STOP AT NOTHING TO STOP BARACK OBAMA ...

    EVEN IF IT STRENGTHENS THE REPUBLICANS AND RUINS THE DEMOCRATS' CHANCES IN NOVEMBER.

    Comment: The Clintons are an embarrassment.

    Shouldn't Democrats have a presidential candidate they can be proud of ... like we were in the past, before Bill Clinton?

    Integrity, honor and accountability should not be rare in politics; we need to strive to make them the minimum price of admission, if we are to move our country forward.

    Integrity, honor and accountability are just what the Clintons have not provided, and will never provide.

    Robert F. Kennedy said politics was an honorable adventure.

    It can be again.

    RALPH NADER, GOP'S BEST FRIEND ON LEFT, URGES HILLARY TO STAY IN THE RACE ...

    Politico.com reports that on his web site today, Nader had a little advice for Hillary Clinton.

    Senator Clinton: Just read where Senator Patrick Leahy is calling on you to drop out of the Presidential race. Believe me. I know something about this.

    Here's my advice: Don't listen to people when they tell you not to run anymore. That's just political bigotry. Listen to your own inner citizen First Amendment voice. This is America. Just like every other citizen, you have a right to run. Whenever you like. For as long as you like.

    It's up to you, Hillary. Just tell them ??? It's democracy. Get used to it. Yours truly, Ralph Nader

    Comment: I see a lot of comments from Hillary supporters saying they will vote McCain/Rice if Obama gets the Dem nomination and I agree that I will not vote for Obama. I would be willing to vote for Hillary, but not Obama. My problem is trying to justify voting Republican when I really do not share their values. Some of you out there are probably having the same feelings. Luckily, we have Ralph Nader. Some sore losers from 2004 blame him for the lose for Gore, but he is not to blame. The Supreme Court is at fault for that. Hillary is working hard to provide solutions for America and I will reward her with my vote if given the opportunity. Ralph Nader has been the Guardian Angel for Americans all of his life, even in the face of illegal wiretaps, smear campaigns by major corporations, and a contract on his life to shut him up. Obama has too much money in his campaign treasury and a scary record on the Environment to ever be a consumer advocate and not brave enough to stand up for what is right. If you want truth, vote Nader!

    Comment: I know I said a few days ago stay tuned for more lies from Hillary - well out today here you go - read below

    1. Last month, she called on Obama to reject support from Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan because of anti-Semitic remarks. When a Dallas TV station challenged her to denounce a Hispanic leader who said black politicians had never helped her people, Clinton replied, ``People have every reason to express their opinions. I just don't agree with that''

    2. This week, Clinton said if she were Obama, she would have left the church of Reverend Jeremiah Wright, his longtime pastor from whom Obama distanced himself only after videos of incendiary remarks circulated.
