Clinton Ally Barred From Clinton Appearance

This is awkward: The Hillary Clinton campaign has "barred" Providence Mayor David N. Cicilline – a former Clinton Rhode Island campaign chair – from the former first lady's appearance in the state on Sunday, according to the Providence Journal.

Why? Because Cicilline doesn't get along with the local firefighters' union, and the Clinton campaign fears that if he shows up they will protest at the event.

Cicilline is no fan of Team Clinton's decision.

"It's obviously something for me to think about very carefully, because I am very disappointed in the decision of the Clinton campaign. I'm not prepared to say more than that today. I obviously have tremendous respect for Senator Clinton, but I'm very disappointed in the decision of her campaign today," he said.

Rhode Island voters go to the polls on Tuesday, March 4th. There are 32 delegates at stake in the state, and a Brown University poll earlier this month showed Clinton with an eight point lead.

Anything Hillary does makes the news. She can''''t win either way. Obama''''s asked the Rev. of his church to not come to one of his rallies in IL in Oct/Nov of 2007. That is not in the media.

And you don''t see a difference? Obama ASKED his supporter and the man complied. Hilary sends goons to bar the way of one of her supporters and alienates them. Why did she not just be a human and ask him not to attend, explaining why and what was at stake--too much like being decent and considerate?
Oh yeah--she did it to this man because either she figures she does not need him or his state OR that she can make it up to him later--because like most of her supporters--he''s too stupid to know she does not really give a rat''s azz about him.

A Standard Clinton tactic. If you are not of use to her right now--then get yer azz to the back and if she makes you a promise (that goes for you UHC plan people too) and it gets in the way of something else she wants to do--it gets kicked to the curb and so do her supporters. She has done this in the past--she will do it again. Nothing, absolutely NOTHING can be allowed to get in the way of Hilary and what she wants--not husbands, not friendship, not promises, not voters, not the law, not Congress, not you....not me.....

Hahahahah - Donate to the Hillary campaign! They need your money for suites at the Belagio in Vegas and $96,000 for cold cuts and dip for 1 campaign stop. Is that Clinton fiscal responsibility? No wonder she needs to loan her campaign 5 million. LOL

If you think that having health insurance through your job means you won''t have to pay Hilary''s mandatory health insurance premiums - think again! According to a September 18, 2007 Associated Press article, Clinton said in an interview with the AP: "... she could envision a day when ''you have to show proof to your employer that you''re insured as a part of the job interview -- like when your kid goes to school and has to show proof of vaccination,'' but said such details would be worked out through negotiations with Congress."

Go Obama!

Don''t feel so bad. I have suggested that CNN is nothing more than a Tabloid newspaper, more interested in manipulating rather than actually reporting the news-and guess what?. My posts no longer appear in their blogs. Hmmm

(Peter Paul & Hillary) Federal judge Matz from Rosen criminal trial is challenged in 5-page letter
DFU ^ | Oct. 1, 2007 | DFU

Some of you may remember the acquittal of Hillary%u2019%u2019s campaign finance chairman, David Rosen, in May 2005. The judge who presided was the Clinton-appointed A. Howard Matz. Many strange anomalies occured during the trial, and some people believe the trial could be named the Los Angeles Black Sox Trial. Of course, there have been many of those, haven%u201Dt there?

After my visit today to the FBI, I stopped at an office for several hours of business, then I paid a visit to the courtroom of one A. Howard Matz to drop off a 5-page letter into his mailbox.

ilary''s ending comments at the Texas debate were very eloquent--but they became something of a joke, when we realized she had xeroxed her own husband''s words about the "hits she had taken being nothing compared to what the avg. American has taken" Or does she give herself a free pass on plagarizing because she lets her husband fvck other women?
