Did I mention raise taxes and waste money? She'll pay billions in bribes to every terrorist organization in the world and will give 100% control of the U.S. to the UN.

I consider myself equal opportunity: I despise all political parties just about equally. Put aside the rhetoric that separates them to pander to their respective followers and we often get that regardless of party it has more to do with power and money than principals and people.

With that said we still have to make decisions given the choices we have.

As a liberal (a liberal amount of rights and a liberal amount of power when necessary to protect it) I don't want Republicans (or what they have become) deciding who the next supreme court justices are going to be. Presidents come and go but we are going to be stuck with Roberts, Alito, Scalia, and Thomas for too long and I don't want the next three to be anything like them.

As for Hillary, I invite you to view the following:

Its not because of Bill that I think she is the best choice but in spite of him. I believe she will be a far better president than he ever was (which I rate as a "B" at best since he never had to face a truly major crisis except of his own doing).

Having a woman - especially one at least as qualified as any of the men - at long last as president will also be a great moment for American democracy.

The Libertarians have a test that adds a up and down component to the left and right. When I take that test I am in the top center right.

Yes, that means I also drag my harry knuckles on the ground, grunt and make other noises.

May I return your wishes for a Happy blessed New Year!

Really, what did he do?



He got caught in a lie (remember him pointing his finger at the camera), then went in to an African-American church to confess his sins (one of them anyway). He signed NAFTA, after Bush the first negotiated it, he could have left it unsigned. And lets not forget the money from China to get him re-elected, for our nuclear secrets, I mean after all we would not want China to miss hitting us if they ever decided to shot as us, do we. (What is Billery going to sell for her contributions? IE: shoe or chew or what ever his name is.)



Until the American people wake up and finally realize that there is no difference between the Republicrats and Demopublicans, we will keep getting the same as we got now.



Everyone, cries the republicans done this or the democrats done that. Here is a question, where was the repubs or the dems when the other side was doing what it was doing? (hint: right along side the other party, check the voting records!)



From a ex-dem ZB, so lets here some answers.

Most polls I've seen show Obama faring better in head-to-head matchups with Republican candidates than Hillary does. I think that's part of what is driving primary voters towards Obama.


Mr. Coudapeipstrel,

Go to Obama's web site:
http://www.barackobama.com/index.php

Click on the "issues" tab. There are plenty of specifics there. Most all of the candidates' web sites have specific policy proposals. They make for great reading.

Happy new year everyone!

Africa to try to straighten out their sorry asses. How is that a change? From Iraq to Africa?
Ron Paul doesn't have any personal messes in his life. He is Truly the only agent of change. He's truly uniting Republicans, Democrats, and independents. His message is different
than the nanny stating socialism coming
from the rest of the candidates, Republicans and Democrats. It's time for a real change back to the constitution! Ron Paul Rocks!

ZB wrote on December 31, 2007 10:49 AM: The more the RJ - a right-wing rag - pushes Obama and attacks Hillary the more I know that Hillary is the best candidate to kick the Republicans out of the White House.

The Republicans know they can beat Obama and they know they can't beat Hillary. They are pushing Obama for the same reason I hope Huckabee is the Republican nominee - nobody will actually vote for him in a general election.

As to why some Republicans mindlessly hate Hillary: because she actually stands up for democratic values instead of just talking about it: Healthcare, children, the elderly, equality to name a few. Republicans talk about values but nearly every Republican Candidate has a sordid personal life, while Hillary stood by her family during the most difficult times. And they hate Bill because he actually made life better for millions of Americans instead of just a few.

Btw: I know lots of republicans who are supporting Hillary based on the facts instead of the personal attacks such as this from the RJ.
