    Hillary is more concerned with her poltical career than voters. Hence, her support for the gas tax holiday which will cut 300,000 construction jobs and increase the already dangerous bridge and road conditions. The American Society of Civil Engineers and most economists say that the gas holiday will just increase gas company profits!

    Obama speaks the truth the to voters. We need this now more than ever.

    Why I support Hillary Clinton: helped establish the State Children's Health Insurance Program and the Adoption and Safe Families Act; attorney for the newly founded Children's Defense Fund in Cambridge; a consultant to the Carnegie Council on Children; published the scholarly articles "Children's Policies: Abandonment and Neglect" in 1977 and "Children's Rights: A Legal Perspective" in 1979;co-founded the Arkansas Advocates for Children and Families, a state-level alliance with the Children's Defense Fund, in 1977, and served on the boards of the Arkansas Children's Hospital, and the Children's Defense Fund (as chair, 1986???1992); (1979???1981, 1983???1992), she served as the chair of the Rural Health Advisory Committee, where she successfully obtained federal funds to expand medical facilities in Arkansas' poorest areas without affecting doctors' fees; introduced Arkansas' Home Instruction Program for Preschool Youth in 1985, a program that helps parents work with their children in preschool preparedness and literacy; Arkansas Woman of the Year in 1983 and Arkansas Mother of the Year in 1984; from 1987 to 1991 she chaired the American Bar Association's Commission on Women in the Profession, which addressed gender bias in the law profession and induced the association to adopt measures to combat it and was twice named by the National Law Journal as one of the 100 most influential lawyers in America, in 1988 and in 1991; helped create the Office on Violence Against Women at the Department of Justice; 1997, she initiated and shepherded the Adoption and Safe Families Act; in her September 1995 speech before the Fourth World Conference on Women in Beijing, Clinton argued very forcefully against practices that abused women around the world and in the People's Republic of China itself, declaring "that it is no longer acceptable to discuss women's rights as separate from human rights" and resisting Chinese pressure to soften her remarks; She was one of the most prominent international figures at the time to speak out against the treatment of Afghan women by the Islamist fundamentalist Taliban that had seized control of Afghanistan; She helped create Vital Voices, an international initiative sponsored by the United States to promote the participation of women in the political processes of their countries;from 1995 to 2004, she brought together women from communities, Catholic & Protestant, to meet & work together toward a common goal of peace in N.

    funny that Newsweek is reposting an article from November 2007.

    Why not try to beat a candidate by explaining how your stances on the issues are better for America than your opponent. What a novel idea for politics

    Hey NewsWeek-To be fair, the Democratic candidates' campaign managers should be given a column as well!

  • Posted By: Jedipowers @ 04/29/2008 6:40:18 AM

    from Alberto Gonzales to Valerie Plame- Rove has been a dishonest and manipulative evildoer who contaminated the White House and masterminded horrible decisions that have destroyed this country- why would anyone think he has enough credibility to write a column? To be fair, the Democratic candidates' campaign managers should be given a column as well!

    Karl Rove is a criminal, the fact that he has a column is proof that Newsweek lacks the moral fiber required for "news" and should change its name to PropagandaWeek.

    I don't know what to make of Karl Rove. He says nice things about Hillary and mean things? Weird. Oh well, I love her and Bill, as does over half of America.

    I think the message that Hillary has been bringing to the table is a return to what she thinks is the "good ole days". Even Bill Clinton talks of her presidency of bring prosperity, even more than his term allowed. Being the economy has reached the cycle of recesion, it sounds like a good idea, and if you can cut the military to the bone, as former Clinton did, and create new programs that reward lazy poor people, the future will look brighter. However, get ready to return to the days of ships under attack, an emabassy under siege, blackhawks shot down. We will lose as many soldiers and civilians as we do in Iraq, they will just be in places like, LA, NYC, Dallas, Chicago. Freedom is not cheap, in both money and lives, but it is what preserves democracy. We don't have to go to war to do it, we just have to be sure our advisary understands our ability and willingness to deploy force in such a manner, it is not worth the price. Post 9-11, unlike post Pearl Harbor, the sleeping giant has not awakened. Put Hillary in office, and the giant may never get a chance to wake up.

    That's why we want her for President, though, persistant, forget nothing and you forgot, brilliant!
    The anecdote about the office mirror, this is an example of a tentative malicious commentary that went wrong, wasn't it? Hillary very perspicacious understood immediately the intentions behind the comment. The intention was to spread a "gossip" or a factoid so she would appear as the Narcisistic one. True is, she can read your intentions immediately. It is like this with brilliant people!

    All propagada. What would you know about what Americans want? Are you now getting paid to do a playbook for the Republicans on free Media money? You were always viscious with your verbal attacks and so it continues. Try a little TRUTH. You have made money and a career out of "dirty tricks" but that does not make you respectable. It appears Newsweek has been bought by the Powers that be.

    Americans are suffering uselessly...HEALTH, HOMES, HIGHER STANDARDS OF LIFE...because of GREED in Corporations, Medical Industry, Insurance industry, Republicians nastiness and greed for OIL, and New World Order, Power hungry individuals that continue to pursue a deadly course of genocide and segregation.
    Remember folks we don't live forever, we all must face up to our wrongs one day, we can only with an unselfish heart create something better for the younger ones of tomorrow...

    What the Republican party needs is someone who emerges as a christian conservative with strong plans and a strong record that reflects positive change for all Americans, not placing corporate values first or providing a soft cushion for the wealthiest five percent. This type of Republican can break down Hillary by showing her greedy, self-centered side and helping create an image that she only wants back in the White House. She had her eight years along side her husband. The Clintons should not be allowed to manipulate the system and have a chance at being the only couple alive who have lived in the White House longer than eight years. Next, they'll have Chelsea running. When will it end? They might as well buy the place!

      If it greedy and self centered is an issue then the GOP should know--after running up a record deficit and amid corruption and sex scandal after scandal (so much for values), they are experts in self centered greed and waste. What exactly is a Christian Conservative?, Larry Craig, Mark Foley, David Vitter, and the other Evangelical Leaders driving their Rolls and Bentleys? If that is the case, I will pass on all of them!

      • Posted By: Cain7000 @ 01/26/2008 11:25:57 AM

        I guess if you have no idea what Christianity is about then you wouldn't know anything about a christian conservative. There are alot of people proclaiming to be christians but never practice their faith. So a christian conservative would be someone who stands up for basic christians ideals and principles on which this country was founded upon. That person would also be cognisant of keeping church separate from state. But they would definitely stand by their fundemental responsibility to protect life liberty and the persuit of happiness. Only a christian would know what true joy and happiness is and it has nothing to do with immorality and greed.

    How to beat Hillary? Keep her from getting the nomination. Start in Iowa. Republicans, reregister on caucus night and vote for Joe Biden.

    I detest what Rove has done for this country. I have met him in person and found him as slimy as you would imagine. And I certainly would not want to know his suggestions for a better America.
    But as for strictly the Republican strategy in the horse race of Presidential elections, I find Rove to be as authoritative of a source as anyone.
