I knew they had to claim to Congress so then what''s the problem with releasing the tax returns? They''ll even get to redact anything that is personal - just the business relationships are important. Is that unreasonable? That''s really a question.

Hey, everyone, let''s just hope that Hillary does not bring both campaigns down. The chances of her winnign this nominations are incredibly small. She is 152 points behind now. If that were Obama that far behind, he would be grilled as a spoiler.

"when we use force in situations other than self-defense, we should make every effort to garner the clear support and participation of others " So then... he would initiate force other than for self-defense? and he does not rule out acting without approval from the international community? sounds just like bush.

LOL--that remark is in intiating wars. (like our Iraq invasion) but if you can--make a video--and be sure to find the instances where he totally disgraces himself by lying about what he previously supported--we''d all love to see that. Hilary would if she could.

Unprovoked aggression =torture to you? Face it--you just want to support Hilary--you said if I provided proof she was for torture, you''d drop her--I did--you didn''t. Like Hilary--like supporters. No surprises there.

A Hillary. This should enter the new slang word lexicon. And we should call a total loser a Bush.

So: "You Hillary! everything you do is so terrible, and evil, fortunately it fails you total Bush!!" LOL

You need to be careful about out of context statements. Here are Obama quotes on torture, habeas corpus and detainee rights. I am not claiming he is on the wrong side of these, but here are out of context comments. Lets make a youtube video, shall we?:

First, when opposing a bill that affected detainee rights he gave the wrong answer as to why:

"The problem with this bill is not that it''s too tough on terrorists," Obama said. "The problem with this bill is that it''s sloppy.

In his speech on the Senate floor, Obama said, "I''ve heard ... the argument that it should be military courts, and not federal judges, who should make decisions on these detainees. I actually agree with that."

Oh, and on use of force:

"when we use force in situations other than self-defense, we should make every effort to garner the clear support and participation of others " So then... he would initiate force other than for self-defense? and he does not rule out acting without approval from the international community? sounds just like bush.

Vet, Clinton and her spouses income are released every year as part of her being a senator.

yep and one year, her tax returns forgot to reveal a 200K donation to someone she claims she never knew. Her campaign mgr went to prison for that--but tapes of her arm in arm with the unknown 200K donors AND tapes of conversations with the same--reveal that once again--Hilary is a LIAR.

See the You Tube video: Hilary Clinton Exposed 1. Very, very revealing and I will post this until people start defending things other than her nonexistent integrity--because the videos do a great job and we can hear the entire videos IN CONTEXT--then still see she is a LIAR.

I would also like to see a woman in the Whitehouse but I would like to see a woman that made it on her own - rather then on the back of her husband. I am not talking about his campaigning for her but rather can you imagine Hillary as a corporate lawyer from Arkansad going to New York without any elected experience and taking a seat in the U.S. Senate. That was a huge power play by the Bill Clinton.

There are plenty of excellent woman governors right now. I''d like to see one of those run next time too.

Wow. you should be president! That was a really good answer to the torture question. Is that what Obama said the first time he was asked about it? Or any time he was asked about it?

Posted by Stratmaster2 at 12:11 PM : Mar 08, 2008


It''s what I said. And no, I''d make a horrifying, nightmarish President who would do all I could to consolidate power, exercise control over all parties and ram through what I felt was best for America--just like Hillary. People like her (and myself) should never run for office--too many would follow us off a cliff, not realizing we have a personal golden parachute and we take no passengers once airborne.
