The problems with the clinton''s they think they are blue blood,they look more like liar''s and thief''s

As a British citizen who is both an admirer and supporter of the US, I am appalled that someone as inexperienced and flagrantly disingenuous as Hillary Clinton can be considered suitable to be President. There are far too many examples of lying politicians on both sides of the Atlantic, but her brazeness is exceptional
She has lied about her role in Northern Ireland and has been caught lying again. She even lied to Edmund Hillary that the spelling of her name was after his; as he was reported to have to said it was unlikely her parents would have heard of an obscure New Zealand beekeeper as her birth pre-dated him climbing Mt Everest.
Her legisative record is limited and her foreign experience negligible. I am not aware that she has ever managed a large organisation in either the private or public sector.
If she is elected, God help America.

My feeling is that Hillary is too smart to "forget" what actually happened that day on the tarmac. We have seen that she is highly intelligent. From this, I deduce that she was probably not telling the truth when she spoke about her landing "under sniper fire" in Bosnia and having to cover her head while running for her car.

Hey ''Lil Hillary,

IF you really was under sniper fire, WHY are you so hellbent on becoming the Commander-in-Chief? Didn''t that scary experience cause a lil woman like you a case of involuntary bowel movements? Aren''t you glad you didn''t pack light for the trip lil missy? Please leave the management of the Iraq War to men folk, who don''t *** themselves when they come under sniper attack. See lil woman playing president and being president is two different things. Ask yourself lil woman, If a leader leads by example, Do you really enhance the troops'' confidence when you smudge your mascara with tears because you come under small arms fire? Stand Down, ''lil missy and let a real man lead.

With all due respect to the cbs journalist, her account here fails to point out to some key elements, all of which is misleading.
This trip was taking place 4 months after the war ended, the bosnian warring factions had been long disbanded. There were no combat or frontlines in spring 96, and at that time the Nato troops were bulldozing the former lines, while the bosnians were going through a political dialog. There were no armed bands roaming around with "sniper rifles" firing off at the airport, close by, or anywhere else for that matter. The reporter here fails to state that no danger could result from "armed elements".
She also fails to elaborate that no trip with any "potential threat" would have been authorised by the Pentagon and the Secret Service, even if Clinton were some lunatic mother, responsible for the lives of her teenage child, and accompanying american civilians. She also fails to point out that the Nato troops and SS, as a precautionary measure, secured at least a 5km radius around the base. It is incomprehensible to think that Clinton, her daughter would stroll around the base with no helmets on, if there was as much as 0.1% of potential hostile fire.
By the way, i was a war reporter during the bosnian war.

HILLARY-OUS 2012 STRATEGY

Some say that I, Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton, should have spent Easter weekend in Chappaqua, writing my withdrawal speech and preparing for my return to the Senate. They ask why I stay in the %u201908 race when Obama has an insurmountable lead in states, delegates, and popular vote. My strategy is for victory in the 2012 presidential election. I will continue to pursue several lines of attack on Obama including denouncing his experience, blaming him for the fiascos in Michigan & Florida, and even praising our Republican rival Senator John McCain as more patriotic and experienced than Obama. My goal is to do extensive damage to Obama to ensure that he looses the general election in %u201908 and pave the way for my eventual election in 2012! It%u2019s a HILLARYOUS strategy, but I will be president by any means necessary.

Hillaryous definition: When someone describes a situation in a way that benefits their selfish goals, despite all of evidence to the contrary (reality).


1. Obama leads Hillary Clinton in delegates by 121, popular vote by almost 750,000, he also leads in the number of states won. However, Senator Bayh of Indiana, who backs Clinton for president, proposed a new Hillaryous gauge by which superdelegates might judge whether to support Clinton or Obama. He suggested that they consider the electoral votes of the states that each of them has won. What a hillaryously undemocratic method to override the will of the majority of the voters in the Democratic party.

As Bill Bradley said, "the bigger the lie, the better off they think they are." This is just one more of a long list of lies and distortions about her so-called accomplishments...the childrens health insurance program, opposing NAFTA, the Irish Peace Accords. Haven''t we had enough lying for the past sixteen years?

[user168-2009]

There''s something special about Hillary and Bill Clinton. They have the ability to fool some people all of the time. Amazing.

Tragically I''''m sure they don''''t even remember why I continue to harbor such bitter feelings toward them. SOOO interestingly I called my cousin a week or so just to see who his family is backing. I have to admit that I was shocked that they too are for Hillary. YES, I slapped myself sufficiently for making such an assumption.

With all due respect, I have persons of African descent in my family as well as those who are of black Irish descent. Not to diminish the two, but other people DO differentiate and even pale or light colored blacks are treated differently by whites than those of darker skin. There really is NO comparison. Your remark is just as demeaning to blacks and others as you implied about people who have minority friends, you really have no clue. consider that some will accept black Irish and some will not-but a black with dark skin, lives with maltreatment almost every day of their lives, not just occassionally at stores when they travel with someone else.
