Another media pundit and member of the Obama cult.

What results do you allude to Hillary? Your failed healthcare reform attempts? Or all that “presidential experience”, like tea and crumpets with Benazir Bhutto, or your overseas trip with Sinbad?
You are a junior Senator, same as Obama. Pure and simple. And, as a New Yorker, from what I have seen, you have spent virtually half your time in the Senate running for president, from day 1.

Who really doesn’t care about American people. FYI, China gained its strength off the Clintons last Presidency, if you noticed, that’s when China started its large move to the US which made it look like the Clintons had the stronger economy (what I mean by this is people, low mid income, could get more for their dollar) by bringing in cheaper made and contaminated products that would later lead to lower manufacturing jobs, company’s had to compete with H. Clintons Wal-Mart (for those who know).
I did travel to China so I’m not just wasting space behind closed doors.

Another ridiculous article written by Aaron Bruns. I can’t believe he gets a pay check for writing this crap!!
Obama does not care about anyone but himself, blacks, Muslims and Islamic organizations. Anyone who does not know that is just plain uninformed!

When will America realize how phony Hillary Clinton is. She will say anything to get elected, not to mention sell out her husband and daughter. This is not someone that is sincere. Please choose Obama, or anyone but Hillary. It will be just like it is now in Washington, if not worse.

She was obviously referring to President Bush, since Mr. Obama is not yet, and might never become a president.
Nice way to put up a negative Clinton headline with no real substance. Especially with Hillary’s campaign on the move upward.

And let us not forget that it was the caring Clinton legacy to hand us Al Queda and organized world terroism. Will there also be a continuation of the “experience” of traveling the world blaming the United States and apologizing for everything (more legacy)? Hard to say, as she has been so specifically vague. This is quite a resume´of “experience”!

Sorry Voter:
You cannot Blame President Clinton or Hillary for the Al-Queda terror network. They have been growing strong long before and long after the Clinton Presidency.
Let’s just blame them for the prosperous economy, the surpluses, the good times I personally experienced during Mr. Clinton’s administration. Terrorist have been around in many forms for thousands of years. To try and blame a single administration for world terror is just terribly ignorant.

Does Aaron Bruns know his A from his E?

That was rhetorical.

OK everyone, time for a joke:

What is the difference between a Fox Embed and a catfish?

One is a bottom feeder…the other is a fish.

That was a good one TheRepub.. Aaron should really consider a new career.

Great point, Jordan, seems like that should have been a second paragraph but maybe when someone cut and pasted it was left out, or her pause was not enough that someone realized it was a different paragraph.
I agree with Jordan just reading the words one knows it is not about Barack Obama.
The answer to your question is No if you had not figured that out.

Apparently, this child was left “behind.” So sad, yet another Bush failure. Only a total idiot could possibly misconstrue Senator Clinton’s comment to this degree.

It was obvious it was about Bush.

This is for anyone who is still hung up on the Iraq issue;
Let me first state that I do not support George W. Bush with much, but when it comes to us being involved in this war I do agree with the fact that we should have gone in, yet I do not agree with the way it was handled.
Having said that we must first look at what got us to this point and why it had to be done.
1) George H. Bush was first to go into Iraq and failed to complete the mission. Knowing that Sadaam was the cause of going into Iraq in the first place and we didn’t remove him. Instead we just bombed him to retreating and making promises that once we left he recanted.
2) So Bill Clinton later bombs Iraq and fails to remove Sadaam from power and once again Sadaam retreats and agrees to more promises and once again we leave and he recants again.
3) So finally we are once again faced with Sadaam and his antics so we have George W. Bush left with what should have been handled two times before and it was GW that took the courage and insight to what needed to be done …… remove Sadaam from power so we didn’t need to keep going back.
Like I said before that his problem was a failed strategy that has left us where we are now. But ask yourself one thing: Had we taken Sadaam out from the beginning would there have been a need to be there now? And would we not have been able to focus more on Bin Laden and possibly preventing 911?
I feel there was more than just one administration at fault here.

The speech is a two-prong attack at Obama and Bush. We hear from Obama “YES WE CAN, YES WE CAN”. What does that mean? Yes we can do WHAT? And then Obama’s other mantra is “CHANGE, CHANGE”. What is he changing? Since a change involves a previous/current to a current/future phenomenonm, which one is Obama implying? And WHAT is he changing, and from WHAT?

He cannot change Washington because he is a part of Washington. He is not a Washington outsider. So the guy talks a lot of rhetoric with little substance or detail. The last President who campaigned like that was Bush. And now we have seen where he has taken our country. Like Bush, his supporters seem to be thinking they can have a beer with him.

ARE WE GOING TO ALLOW OURSELVES TO BE SUCKERED BY ANOTHER OVASIVE EMPTY-RHETORIC CAMPAIGNER? WHAT IF HE LEADS US DOWN THE SAME PATH LIKE BUSH, WHO DO WE BLAME IF NOT OURSELVES? He has already threatened that he will attack Pakistan to get Osama…That’s scary.

The Clinton Legacy

The Progressive Review

This list was compiled at the end of the Clinton administration. It was last partially updated in 2000

Our Clinton Scandal Index

The Clintons, to adapt a line from Dr. Johnson, were not only corrupt, they were the cause of corruption in others. Yet seldom in America have so many come to excuse so much mendacity and malfeasance as during the Clinton years. Here are some of the facts that have been buried.

RECORDS SET

- The only president ever impeached on grounds of personal malfeasance
- Most number of convictions and guilty pleas by friends and associates*
- Most number of cabinet officials to come under criminal investigation
- Most number of witnesses to flee country or refuse to testify
- Most number of witnesses to die suddenly
- First president sued for sexual harassment.
- First president accused of rape.
- First first lady to come under criminal investigation
- Largest criminal plea agreement in an illegal campaign contribution case
- First president to establish a legal defense fund.
- First president to be held in contempt of court
- Greatest amount of illegal campaign contributions
- Greatest amount of illegal campaign contributions from abroad
- First president disbarred from the US Supreme Court and a state court

* According to our best information, 40 government officials were indicted or convicted in the wake of Watergate. A reader computes that there was a total of 31 Reagan era convictions, including 14 because of Iran-Contra and 16 in the Department of Housing & Urban Development scandal. 47 individuals and businesses associated with the Clinton machine were convicted of or pleaded guilty to crimes with 33 of these occurring during the Clinton administration itself. There were in addition 61 indictments or misdemeanor charges. 14 persons were imprisoned. A key difference between the Clinton story and earlier ones was the number of criminals with whom he was associated before entering the White House.

Using a far looser standard that included resignations, David R. Simon and D. Stanley Eitzen in Elite Deviance, say that 138 appointees of the Reagan administration either resigned under an ethical cloud or were criminally indicted. Curiously Haynes Johnson uses the same figure but with a different standard in “Sleep-Walking Through History: America in the Reagan Years: “By the end of his term, 138 administration officials had been convicted, had been indicted, or had been the subject of official investigations for official misconduct and/or criminal violations. In terms of number of officials involved, the record of his administration was the worst ever.”

STARR-RAY INVESTIGATION

- Number of Clinton Cabinet members who came under criminal investigation: 5
- Number of Reagan cabinet members who came under criminal investigation: 4

CRIME STATS

- Number of individuals and businesses associated with the Clinton machine who have been convicted of or pleaded guilty to crimes: 47
- Number of these convictions during Clinton’s presidency: 33
- Number of indictments/misdemeanor charges: 61

- According to the House Committee on Government Reform in September 2000, 79 House and Senate witnesses asserted the Fifth Amendment in the course of investigations into Gore’s last fundraising campaign.
-James Riady entered a plea agreement to pay an $8.5 million fine for campaign finance crimes. This was a record under campaign finance laws.

ARKANSAS SUDDEN DEATH SYNDROME

- Number of persons in the Clinton machine orbit who are alleged to have committed suicide: 9
- Number known to have been murdered: 12
- Number who died in plane crashes: 6
- Number who died in single car automobile accidents: 3
- Number of one-person sking fatalities: 1
- Number of key witnesses who have died of heart attacks while in federal custody under questionable circumstances: 1
- Number of unexplained deaths: 4
- Total suspicious deaths: 46
- Number of northern Mafia killings during peak years of 1968-78: 30
- Number of Dixie Mafia killings during same period: 156

It is important in considering these fatal incidents to bear in mind the following:

The fact that anomalies need to be investigated further carries no presumption of how a death actually occurred, only that there remain serious questions that require answers.

The possibility of foul play must be taken seriously in a major criminal conspiracy in which over two score individuals and firms have been convicted and over 100 witnesses have pled the Fifth Amendment or fled the country.

If foul play did occur in any of these cases, that fact by itself does not carry the presumption that the the Clinton machine was involved. Given the footprints of organized crime, drug trade, foreign espionage, and intelligence agencies on the trail of the Clinton story, such a assumption would not be warranted. It is also well to keep in mind the classic prohibition era movie in which the corrupt poitician’s job was not to engage in illegal acts but to avoid noticing them.

THE HIDDEN ELECTION

USA Today calls it “the hidden election,” in which nearly 7,000 state legislative seats are decided with only minimal media and public attention. But there was an important national story here: evidence of the disaster that Bill Clinton was for the Democratic Party. According to the National Conference of State Legislatures, Democrats held a 1,542 seat lead in the state bodies in 1990. As of 1998 that lead had shrunk to 288. That’s a loss of over 1,200 state legislative seats, nearly all of them under Clinton. Across the US, the Democrats controled only 65 more state senate seats than the Republicans.

Further, in 1992, the Democrats controlled 17 more state legislatures than the Republicans. After 1998, the Republicans controlled one more than the Democrats. Not only was this a loss of 9 legislatures under Clinton, but it was the first time since 1954 that the GOP had controlled more state legislatures than the Democrats (they tied in 1968).

Here’s what happened to the Democrats under Clinton, based on our latest figures:

- GOP seats gained in House since Clinton became president: 48
- GOP seats gained in Senate since Clinton became president: 8
- GOP governorships gained since Clinton became president: 11
- GOP state legislative seats gained since Clinton became president: 1,254
as of 1998
- State legislatures taken over by GOP since Clinton became president: 9
- Democrat officeholders who have become Republicans since Clinton became
president: 439 as of 1998
- Republican officeholders who have become Democrats since Clinton became president: 3

THE CLINTON LEGACY: LONELY VOICES

Here are some of the all too rare public officials, reporters, and others who spoke truth to the dismally corrupt power of Bill and Hill Clinton’s political machine — some at risk to their careers, others at risk to their lives. A few points to note:

- Those corporatist media reporters who attempted to report the story often found themselves muzzled; some even lost their jobs. The only major dailies that consistently handled the story well were the Wall Street Journal and the Washington Times.

- Nobody on this list has gotten rich and many you may not have even heard of. Taking on the Clintons typically has not been a happy or rewarding experience. At least ten reporters were fired, transferred off their beats, resigned, or otherwise got into trouble because of their work on the scandals.

- Contrary to the popular impression, the politics of those listed ranges from the left to the right, and from the ideological to the independent.

PUBLIC OFFICIALS

MIGUEL RODRIGUEZ was a prosecutor on the staff of Kenneth Starr. His attempts to uncover the truth in the Vincent Foster death case were repeatedly foiled and he was the subject of planted stories undermining his credibility and implying that he was unstable. Rodriguez eventually resigned.

JEAN DUFFEY: Head of a joint federal-county drug task force in Arkansas. Her first instructions from her boss: “Jean, you are not to use the drug task force to investigate any public official.” Duffey’s work, however, led deep into the heart of the Dixie Mafia, including members of the Clinton machine and the investigation of the so-called “train deaths.” Ambrose Evans-Pritchard reports that when she produced a star witness who could testify to Clinton’s involvement with cocaine, the local prosecuting attorney, Dan Harmon issued a subpoena for all the task force records, including “the incriminating files on his own activities. If Duffey had complied it would have exposed 30 witnesses and her confidential informants to violent retributions. She refused.” Harmon issued a warrant for her arrest and friendly cops told her that there was a $50,000 price on her head. She eventually fled to Texas. The once-untouchable Harmon was later convicted of racketeering, extortion and drug dealing.

BILL DUNCAN: An IRS investigator in Arkansas who drafted some 30 federal indictments of Arkansas figures on money laundering and other charges. Clinton biographer Roger Morris quotes a source who reviewed the evidence: “Those indictments were a real slam dunk if there ever was one.” The cases were suppressed, many in the name of “national security.” Duncan was never called to testify. Other IRS agents and state police disavowed Duncan and turned on him. Said one source, “Somebody outside ordered it shut down and the walls went up.”

RUSSELL WELCH: An Arkansas state police detective working with Duncan. Welch developed a 35-volume, 3,000 page archive on drug and money laundering operations at Mena. His investigation was so compromised that a high state police official even let one of the targets of the probe look through the file. At one point, Welch was sprayed in the face with poison, later identified by the Center for Disease Control as anthrax. He would write in his diary, “I feel like I live in Russia, waiting for the secret police to pounce down. A government has gotten out of control. Men find themselves in positions of power and suddenly crimes become legal.” Welch is no longer with the state police.

DAN SMALTZ: Smaltz did an outstanding job investigating and prosecuting charges involving illegal payoffs to Agriculture Secretary Mike Espy, yet was treated with disparaging and highly inaccurate reporting by the likes of the David Broder and the NY Times. Espy was acquitted under a law that made it necessary to not only prove that he accepted gratuities but that he did something specific in return. On the other hand, Tyson Foods copped a plea in the same case, paying $6 million in fines and serving four years’ probation. The charge: that Tyson had illegally offered Espy $12,000 in airplane rides, football tickets and other payoffs. In the Espy investigation, Smaltz obtained 15 convictions and collected over $11 million in fines and civil penalties. Offenses for which convictions were obtained included false statements, concealing money from prohibited sources, illegal gratuities, illegal contributions, falsifying records, interstate transportation of stolen property, money laundering, and illegal receipt of USDA subsidies. In addition, Janet Reno blocked Smaltz from pursuing leads aimed at allegations of major drug trafficking in Arkansas and payoffs to the then governor of the state, WJ Clinton. Espy had become Ag secretary only after being flown to Arkansas to get the approval of chicken king Don Tyson.

DAVID SCHIPPERS was House impeachment counsel and a Chicago Democrat. He did a highly creditable job but since he didn’t fit the right-wing conspiracy theory, the Clintonista media downplayed his work. Thus most Americans don’t know that he told Newsmax, “Let me tell you, if we had a chance to put on a case, I would have put live witnesses before the committee. But the House leadership, and I’m not talking about Henry Hyde, they just killed us as far as time was concerned. I begged them to let me take it into this year. Then I screamed for witnesses before the Senate. But there was nothing anybody could do to get those Senators to show any courage. They told us essentially, you’re not going to get 67 votes so why are you wasting our time.” Schippers also said that while a number of representatives had looked at additional evidence kept under seal in a nearby House building, not a single senator did.

JOHN CLARKE: When Patrick Knowlton stopped to relieve himself in Ft. Marcy Park 70 minutes before the discovery of Vince Foster’s body, he saw things that got him into deep trouble. His interview statements were falsified and prior to testifying he claims he was overtly harassed by more than a score of men in a classic witness intimidation technique. In some cases there were witnesses. John Clarke was his dogged lawyer in the witness intimidation case that was largely ignored by the media, even when the three-judge panel overseeing the Starr investigation permitted Knowlton to append a 20 page addendum to the Starr Report.

If she cares about the American people so much, she should suspend her run for the WH. She is not winning the popular vote, has won less states, and is relying on strategic campaigning and superdelegates to get ahead. This sounds a lot like the race in 2000 when George Bush did the same thing to get the presidential election (lost the popular vote, won the electoral votes). She is no different than he is if she is using the system, not the voice of the American people, in order to fulfill her political dreams!

RESPONSE TO CHRIS — GET A LIFE. NO FACTS ON YOUR PART.
DEMOCRATIC PARTY KNOWS HILLARY IS BEST FOR DEMOCRATS IN THIS COUNTRY AND THE JUNIOR SENATOR SHOULD BE VP AND EARN MORE TIME IN THE TRENCHES TO BE READY IN 2012 OR 2016. THE REALITY IS SUPER DELICATES WILL SUPORT HILLARY, AS THEY SHOULD, AS THE KNOW THE QUALITY OF THE CANIDATES. VOTERS REALLY KNOW TOO, BUT WE HAVE NEW VOTERS THAT ARE RUN ON POPULARITY INSTEAD FACTS, SAD REALITY.

Did everyone get to watch Pelosi on her interview with Wolff, CNN?
Link

I felt that she was quite full of fluff and smug and left me feeling that the upper crust of the democratic party believes that the people do not have the knowledge or intelligence to have the final choice when it comes to the democratic nomination and need a mechanism to babysit us.

She would not answer the question Wolff asked - “Would you have a problem if it comes down to a brokered convention where the super delegates tipping the scales..” despite what the popular votes show. While she did not give a direct answer, she claims that these people are “SUPER” delegates and know what is best.

She specifically stated that the super delegates are a representation of their home states and yet, when you look, super delegates who have pledged so far obviously did not pledge with the majority of States representative votes and many, many super delegates pledged long BEFORE their States primary/caucus.

What I find interesting is that the Clinton supporters so staunchly seem to support the SD system only because right now this is the only edge that Sen. Clinton has.

I am encouraged to some degree to hear Donna Brazile, a super delegate herself, state that she would “walk away” should it come down to a “brokered convention.” Another hope is that I see in the last two days Debbie Dingell (MI) and DNC Christine “Roz” Samuels (NJ) have removed their pledge from Clinton back to the uncommitted list.

My last bit of encouragement comes from watching coverage of the Republican Concervative Convention in which Hilary seemed to be the hot topic. The repbulican party is hoping that Hilary will be the nominee because they feel that there are enough independents and uncommited republicans/concervatives who are “Hillary Haters” and that they will essentially seal the republican bid for the presidency.

It is so completely obvious to me as an everyday citizen that when it comes to the DNC, Sen. Barack Obama is indeed the only clear choice for the People, the Democratic Party and the Country. Why can’t the super delegates see this and more importantly, why can’t Sen. Clinton see this and drop her bid for the better of her party and her country - Mitt did it - so too can you Sen. Clinton

Chris, what a long list of Clinton’s legacy - that must be too bad to be true!

My comment is just this short:
yes SHE can!!!
no HE can’t!!!
Hillary for president!!!

Chris—-Do you mind? We don’t want to see your long long nonfactual crap..knock it off!!!

WILL OF NV. MAJORITY IS NOT WINNING A STATE BY 1 OR 2%, MANY PARTTIME VOTERS THAT SIT ON THE OBAMA SIDE DO NOT REPRESENT THE DEMOCRATIC TICKET TO KNOCK OUT THE REPUBLICAN PARTY. SUPER DELICATICS REPRESENT THE PARTY OF THE STATE IS TRUE, BUT THEY ALSO KNOW THE SPLIT STATES MEANING WITHIN 5% SHOULD GO TO WHO WILL DEFEAT THE REPUBLICANS, AS THIS IS THE GOAL. A JUNIOR SENATOR DOES NOT CARRY THE DAY IN NOVEMBER, BUT THE EXPERIENCE SENATOR FROM NY WILL, AND THAT IS HILLARY CLINTON WITHOUT A DOUBT.
CLINTON WILL PICK OBAMA AS VP, BUT OBAMA WILL NOT, BECAUSE SHE CARE ABOUT THE PARTY, HE DOES NOT. EXPERIENCE SHOUD TRUMP ROOKIE TALK.

Will in Nevada,
Obama is not the only clear choice. I think a lot of people want to see him gain more experience in goverment before we hand our country over to him. It would be simular to you calling your boss and saying ” I can’t make it into work today but my 12 year old son will take my place”. Clearly, your son may have watched and heard what you do at work but he is not qualified yet to take over your job. Obama has only 5 years or less experience as a senator. Obama may make a good VP but Hillary Clinton has the actual hands on experience for over 30 years.
Plus, so many people know sooo much about the Clintons, good or bad, but we really don’t know that much about Obama. That makes people nervous, myself included.

I am finding myself reading all the fluff about what Bill Clinton did in his presidency. I may be naive, but I for one believe in Hillary. This woman stayed strong throughout what must have been unbelievable hardships. She kept her private struggles private and continued to do what she felt was right for her country. When she decided to run for Senate, I for one applauded her desire to make her own personal difference. I have studied Obamas retoric, and see it as being just that. Yes we all want change from the last 8 years, but all change is systematic, and if you don’t know how the system works, you will never get anything done. I am a fervent Hillary backer and will remain so. She will valiantly work toward change.

This idea of superdelegates is not democracy- as in the power of the people by the people and for the people. The people are choosing Obama, and the so-called superdelegates are choosing Hillary. Go figure. No wonder the Republicans will win again. It is UNdemorcatic for the democratic party to choose a nominee using superdelegates. The only time this would make sense is if there was a tie in the delegate count. So far the people are speaking or have spoken, and they clearly favor Obama. So why use the superdelegate to corrupt the process. If it comes to the superdelegates or backroom dealing (Hillary’s forte) choosing the nominee, the people will and should stay home in November and let the superdelegates elect the President.

Let the people be the deciders. The superdelegates should causus/vote just like everybody else.

This rule should be change to read: incase of a tie then and only may the superdelegates be used to decide the nominee. It is corruption to do otherwise.

Obama is not who he wants everyone to believe he is. Compared to Hillary, exactly what do we know about Obama? He does not have enough experience to run this country and when I ran across this video from another blog I was shocked and speechless! I think every voter should watch this video and read the outline that goes with it!!

It’s politics man. We went there the first time to liberate Kuwait had we gone further there would have been backlash from other nations and the doves. Besides, hindsight is always 20/20. I agree with you that there was more than one administration to blame and I would go further and say that there is more than one party to blame, but personally I am less interested in pointing fingers than in figuring out what to do next. What is funny to me is that if you really listen to what Hillary and Obama are saying they themselves concede we can’t leave Iraq. What do you think “we need a military presence to protect our interests” means? It means “we aren’t going anywhere”. It’s typical double-speak but it’s popular to say “I will get us out of Iraq” so they say it to get votes. In the end they won’t.

What concerns me more though is Obama. He’s so hot that he didn’t vote for the war. My question is “why not?” Despite what we know now there was every indication that Iraq had WMD (hell they had used them before on the Kurds and against Iran and they had a nuclear weapons program that was more advanced than the IAEA realized). Every bit of “intelligence” showed them to be a destabilizing force in the reigon and yet Obama’s position was “let’s do nothing”. That and his willingness to talk to terrorists makes me VERY nervous about his ability to handle terrorist threats. I agree with Hillary on this issue. He’s VERY naive when it comes to foreign policy.

Hillary has been Bill’s right hand from day one. Type in Clinton Body Count to see how many associates of the Clintons have meet an untimely death. There are far to many people listed for it to be coincidental.

Bill allowed China to access nuclear missile technology while President. The Chinese then sold information to Iran. Even Nancy Pelosi commented on this June 18, 1997 on the House Floor. There is no conspiracy theory on this one. It’s a fact. Do you really want the Clintons back in the White House?

{DEMOCRATIC PARTY KNOWS HILLARY IS BEST FOR DEMOCRATS IN THIS COUNTRY AND THE JUNIOR SENATOR SHOULD BE VP AND EARN MORE TIME IN THE TRENCHES TO BE READY IN 2012 OR 2016.}

You don’t know what your talking about (JUNIOR SENATOR) refering to Obama. Hillary Clinton is also a Junior Senator from New York.

Medemoi the meaning to yes we can is We the African Americans can do this. And to change means. Change for the African American.Listen to all his storys for when he worked for the Civil Rights Firm. That is when he said he had to change things. and yes they could He talks about it all the time The only people getting it though is the African American They know what he is saying I’ve also heard that he makes fun of some white folks slang words Oprah wants the White House Black

The Republican party is heading for disaster. You did not see Democrats change their core values as ludicrious as they are after they got their butts handed to them in 04′. Why did we? Until we get back to our core values of securing our borders,language, and culture is when we will gain control of both houses of congress and the presidency. As much as the republican establishment has moved left, it may never happen again. I feel there should be no parties and should elect a man or women based on their record and plans for future policy. I guarantee you our economy would be up and our congress would actually get the necessary things done. If there has to be a party system, then there has to be a third party called the ” American” party.
