Papers? I Don’t See Any Papers.

    I admire Media - No WORD on the first page on any site .
    Like it is Onama is messing all over and they are blaming him and whoever is close.
    Did ANY other superdelegate endorosing Clinton answered again and again - why did he do that?

    It is hard to understand - WHY we all still watch these dirty games.
    WHY?

    Question: How many lies can a Clinton tell in a 3-month time period?

      I agree with you! I think she is dividing the Democratic Party because if the shoe was on the other foot and she was ahead, she would suggest to Obama to get out of the race. Also she would probably put in a lawsuit to have Obama put out of the race. This when the American people start belive that the Democratic Party has become racial.

    Why is that the Clinton's can mastermind things, don't play by the rules, change the rules with it fits them and never called on it. I think Hillary is hiding something relating to her taxes just as I thought she didn't want these articles seen.

    It is a disgrace how the Clinton's can mastermind things and get away with it. I don't think she has the experience that she has stated many times and she is hiding something relating to her taxes.

    "Archives spokeswoman Susan Cooper says it is "really hard to predict" if any of this material will be released before the election."

    Really? Hmmmm. Let's see. . .based on Billary's record of hypocritical efforts to dictate perceived truth through illegal evasion of open records laws . . .I predict "NO". Now that wasn't so hard.

    And she claims to be vetted... claims that people know all about her...

    You can't believe two words from the Clintons.

    "Given all that they went through in office..." -- YES, and a good chunk of it brought on by Bill and Hillary
    themselves -- this falls into the category (once again) of CLINTON VICTIMHOOD -- woe is them -- they
    are just trying to do their best "for the country", "for the children" and its that VRWConspiracy, and now the
    VLWconspiracy who are trying to do them in. We should trust Hillary to be the best candidate for the job,but
    , as Ronald Reagan once said "trust but verify" , there will be no verification from Hillary, because then her
    entire "web of deception" would disappear. She, as did her husband, has a massive cadre of handlers, to
    be sure that she looks just right, sounds just right. Perception is everything , and she hopes that the
    public will once again be conned , as they were with good ol' boy Bill. The country does not need another
    Clinton.

      Good call on the VictimHood. That sums up quite a bit.

    This is just what happened during TravelGate - missing papers. Here's the New York Times article from then:

    I have never claimed a political party and most certainaly never wanted to vote for a politician in the past,I own my own business and dealing with employees and salespeople and their companies and all of the negtive energy I recieve from their theft and lies and lack of responsibility,I would like to see a candicate who can see through the bull and go forward to achieve one goal at a time and move on to the next without hesitation, and ignore the doubters and wannabees.our country is a business and should be run as one ,with leadership who has been there and knows whats going on and is prepared with a plan and execution to succeed.hilary is without a doubt ,in the groove and ready to impress.she forgave bill and no matter what your thoughts are about them sexually,hillaty and bill are a true team for u.s.make no mistake,hilary,is the right choice for u.s. in these times of terrorism and dictatorship.it"s time for a change,lets get the tetstotsterone out of the white house and save our country from ww111!she will get my vote!

      Um... we're already in WWIII. Sorry to tell you. I don't care what happens between a husband and a wife, but when that husband is the Commander in Chief and lies under oath, no matter the topic, I am going to have a problem with that. And if people think Bill is going to sit around a pour tea for four years, they have got another thing coming. "Ousting testosterone" isn't going to solve anything. That's a very sexist statement... and I'm a woman. How would you like it if someone told you that your business had to "oust the estrogen"?

    If electability would be solely based on individual's credibility, character or integrity , the White house and the congress would be a lonely place to work.

    What the heck are the liberals thinking? Why would ANYONE vote for her or even listen to her when she is so obviously dodging this very real issue? Has anyone asked themselves "why?" Why wouldn;t she want them released until after the election? hmmmm....

  • Posted By: kdrew86 @ 11/28/2007 3:07:43 AM

    Technically its not up to her if the documents are released. Its up to her husband and I'm pretty sure he has things in there about him he doesn't want to get out. She wasn't president and if she was the major driving force behind his decisions in some areas that would make him look like a weak man and he doesn't want that. Its not her decision to make its her husbands...and if you payed attention to the lewisky crap you can tell that he ultimately makes his own decisions...hence cheating on his wife.

    • Posted By: kdrew86 @ 11/28/2007 3:15:37 AM

      And also its up to Bush also to release them since he can veto Clintons decision to release them. They both have to agree. And Bush knows what is in those files. I doubt he wants that either.

    Anyone thinking that the Clintons will let loose of those papers before the election is whistling past the graveyard. And dollars to doughnuts, you won't find out after , either. They had to sit on her and get her out of the office during his term , because that big mouth of hers was getting them into trouble. Now it's his mouth. But if they want to keep him quiet , it's a lot easier than her. Just find him a broad and swear the secret service to secrecy outside the motel, and you can hole him up for the duration. I just can't understand one person in America, male or female, that can even think of her as President. I mean , I can see a bunch of left wing college girls , and nutsy feminists falling for her line. but any red blooded American Male who backs her should be drawn and quartered. She is a socialist and has never voted for a tax cut. She will bleed the average man dry, despite what she says. She is in the pocket of all the big wheels, so it''s not them that will be paying for her hairbrained schemes. I just can't understand it. The two of them are so crooked they have to practice what they are going to tell the cook what they want for breakfast. I'm just hoping for someone like Tancredo, or Huckabee, or an Independant of some worth to really bring up her past for all to see. These debates are a lark.... Everyone is kissy feely.... You have to go for the jugular.. She did the same last night as she always does, and the same way Slick Willie did before her... Talk and tap dance and say nothing. Is this the kind of person this country wants ? She can't keep running down the beach, and put her toe into the water. Sooner or later, she'll have to get in. Then maybe those who want to vote for her will finally get an inkling of what's she's really like.

    If not disclosing papers from the Clinton years in the White house now (utilizing the FOIA and the right of the American people to know), who says that Ms. H Cinton will be honest and forthright with the American people now and in the future. What does H. Clinton have to fear? Truth, integrity, honesty is what Americans want (and FULL disclosure).

    This is a great opportunity for Newsweek to prove it's alleged unbiased presentation of the news. Assign aggressive journalists to research the facts and publish the unvarnished truth BEFORE the election. Why are the Clinton documents not available? I personally doubt Newsweek can prove itself unbiased. History is too clear in the anti-Republican leaning of this rag.

    • Posted By: Right_by_Choice @ 11/13/2007 3:31:04 PM

      It's worthy to note that Kerry gave the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth all the amunition they needed by refusing to release his military records. Exactly the same tactic Hillary is taking. As Dr. Phil would say, "How'd that work out for you?
