President Clinton Runs Around El Paso
El Paso, TX—
President Bill Clinton ran around this border town holding 4 rallies one after another and attracting thousands of enthusiastic supporters—people even climbing into trees to get a glimpse. But, at least one heckler tried to get the best of the 42nd president shouting at him about his years in the White House. Clinton was discussing his wife’s ability to work with Republicans in the Senate, but went on a tangent talking about his own history with his rivals:
“When Hillary went to the Senate people said, ‘Oh Hillary won’t get anything done in the Senate. The Republicans are in the majority and they do not like the Clintons.’ Now there was some truth to that, but I think it was because I was elected twice and our ideas were so much better than theirs,” Clinton continued to cheers from the crowd, “I don’t think they liked that.”
The heckler interrupted, but what exactly he said was drowned out by boos from the crowd. Clinton fired back not losing his cool during the pestering:
“They sure did and I beat them too because it was wrong what they did and you know it. They violated the Constitution then just like they have for the last seven years and if you elect her you will have your constitution back again and that will be good.”
The heckler kept at it and Clinton got more cheers jabbing the protestor, Republicans, and the Patriot Act:
“Oh let him talk he thinks you came here to hear him and we are not like the Republicans we believe in free speech. I don’t even want to know what books you checked out of the library.”
The heckler ceased and Clinton went on to talk more about his own history saying that a candidate needs to define hope–a veiled jab at Senator Obama—yet he did note that he ran as the candidate of hope and that he is from Hope, Arkansas:
“I believe words and inspiration and hope are important. I’m from a place called Hope. I ran as the candidate of hope,” Clinton said, “In order to be a good president you got to define what you hope for and how you are going to be able to keep faith for Americans by turning hopes into realities in other people’s lives and that’s what she’s great at.”
Clinton campaigned here in 1996 drawing a massive crowd of 44,000 people–a detail he made sure to mention today on the stump.

i find it sick that obama takes in the african american votes without even a tug and uses the racial card when needed! but when a real issue or conferance comes up obama in no where to be found! IF I WAS BLACK THIS WOULD MAKE ME SICK! HE NEVER CARED ABOUT AFRICAN AMERICANS! I HATE THAT MAN MORE EVERYDAY! HOW COULD HE NOT SHOW UP TO THIS FUNCTION HE HAS TAKEN WITHOUT WORK AND WHEN HE NEEDED TO WORK HE LET THE POOR LIVE IN SLUMS WHILE HE TOOK MONEY FROM TONY REZKO! I HATE YOU SAINT OBAMA AND YOUR TIME WILL COME TRUST ME!
YOU R RIGHT………ONLY HILLARY HAS GUTS TO FACE THE TRUTH AND STAND UP FOR HERSELF,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
Yeah…it looks like Hillary’s running around El Paso looking to pull some illegal aliens out of the Rio Grande in order to get some more voters as she goes down in flames.
So this is who some Americans feel is best prepared to lead our country?
Organized a campaign based solely on a date certain win. (February 5, 2008)
Squandered over $100 million dollars worth of donations and has what to show for it? (11 straight losses that she claims were not important because she had won the big states)
She stands on the Senate floor to denounce the leader of Kazakhstan (Nursultan Nazarbayev) for his communist human rights violations while her husband brokers a deal for Frank Giustra and receives $31.3 million for his efforts along with pledge for $100 million dollars more.
Loans her campaign $5 million dollars to continue on and when asked about releasing her tax records- states that she will disclose this information if she gets elected.
She touts her claim to 35 years of experience which includes her eight years as First Lady yet refuses to release those records for the American people to see.
She brokers over $341 million dollars of the tax payers money for her earmarks and refuses to divulge any records to show where this money is going.
She agrees to the rules of the DNC to not campaign in Michigan And Florida and that those states will not be awarded any delegates, but once she realizes that plans of sealing up the nomination on 02-05-2008 does she stand up for those voters and demands that she receive those delegates even though her opponents were not even on the ballot in one of those states. (Seems as though if these two states were so important to have their votes count she would have fought for them from the beginning).
She demands to have more debates so the American people can get a better understanding of the candidates and yet she preaches the same old things she had said in the previous eighteen debates.
She preaches to America that if she is elected that she would meet with military leaders to determine the best path to take in bringing home our troops to end the war. How ironic is it that those are the same military leaders who are leading us now including General David Petraeus for which she told him this on September 12,2007 (“Mrs. Clinton told General Petraeus that his progress report on Iraq required “a willing suspension of disbelief.”)
She claims that when she is President she would instill her plan help those having mortgage problems, but just how many of those people will still have their homes when that time comes? If she cared so much she would be introducing legislation now to help all of those in need.
The only people who would “Flock to Bill Clinton”, are horney women! OBAMA ‘08!
Obama on front page of the GLOBE Headline : OBAMA SEX SCANDAL - With a MAN!
Also tells about a woman - Megan Hughes
http://www.whitehouse.com
Hillary 08
OBAMA HAS DELUSIONS OF GRANDURE IF HE THINKS AMERICA WILL ULTIMATELY ELECT HIM.
HE IS THE RACIST BIGOT CHECK OUT HIS CHURCH WEBSITE http://www.tucc.org/about.htm
heck he don’t even like american black people he’s for the africans only
he and his pastor don’t have very nice things to say about our country not to mention his poor under educated princeton and harvard grad wife who in her own words just recently was enlightened to feel proud of our country. why is that because the uneducated blacks and whites are banding together to vote for her husband a man who will talk our enemies to death and sell us out to the highest bidder
the talking heads have the audacity to say that hillary gets the uneducated vote.
he will be so busy trying to save africa that we will be overrun with his cousins hope you guys aren’t to attatched to your heads
TEXAS REPUBLICANS, VOTE FOR HILLARY TO KEEP THE DEMOCRATS DIVIDED!
I haven’t been on these boards for long, but one thing that sticks out is the Hillary supporters. They are forceful bunch who do not hesitate to name call. Facts are not required, because in their minds Hillary is like the second coming. Obama “fans” seem to be positve and just promote their candate. You guys in the Hillary camp seem to more cult like in your support then the Obama. The only way that is not true, isif you are actually inner circle campain workers doing your job promoting her at the same time attempting to desroy the opposition. You guys claim Obama does not have any accomplishments - I agree. But what does Hillary have? 30+ years of being a campainer w/ Billy? What has she done that qualifies her as president?
Hillary is a dangerous person. Getting her out now is the only way to save the country from the worse election ever. Running up against here will tear this country apart. It nearly did with Billy, it will certainly with Hillary.
Whatever you do - don’t vote for her!
BILL WAS HANDING OUT AUTOGRAPHED CIGARS, AND AN INVITATION TO TH SENORITAS TO GET THEIRS BROKE IN. MY WIFE IS HISPANIC AND WE ARE EMBARASSED BY THE HISPANICS OF S. TX. THAT VOTE FOR THESE PERVERTS. OF COURSE MOST ARE ILLEGAL AND GET WLFARE, FOOD STAMPS, ECT.
AISHA DID YOU GET YOU CIGAR==OR WAS YOU WAITING FOR A TONGUE FROM HILLARY
Yeah, Bill Clinton had some “great” ideas… like a certain real estate transaction in Arkansas. Like be married to a woman who somehow knew enough about cattle futures to turn a few thousand into 100,000 in one day. Like facilitating giving Yasser Arafat, a known terrorist, 1/3 of the Nobel Peace Prize, instead of serving him a standing indictment for the murder of 2 American and 2 European diplomats by Black September. Like being involved with ( I am being kind here) with Sandy Berger stealing classified documents from the National Archives. Like listening to Hillary and not bombing Serbian positions in the Bosnia-Herzegobina crisis; a mistake which had the profound impact of 10’s of thousands dead and our country being the recipient of 100’s of thousands of refugees.
I didn’t mention Filegate, Travelgate, all those women, and having cigar sex with a 19 year old intern. I didn’t mention lying under oath and being disbarred for it. I didn’t mention Hillary had to have been knowledgeable, and therefore complicit in, all of his lies.
The worst administration in the history of this country, and the aforementioned “great” ideas are just a little of the dirt.

i was waiting for a looser like you ,,,to turn a fox news blog into ur bedroom talk,,,,,,,
i was waiting for a looser like you ,,,,,,to start ur copied speeches like that black crack pipe of urs
i was waiting for ,,,,,,,,,,my husband tongue in my mouth ,,,,,,,,,,,,,but he was busy with ur mama
Judy,
Positive like Dave’s posts below yours?
Aisha,
I certainly hope that you are a well educated woman, talking smack like that. Supporters of Hillary like you , are what the country despises. You have stooped to the same low as Hillary. If you are educated, you should know that Hillary is not going to win the nomination. She has to win by 73% in both Texas and Ohio. She has not been able to win by that margin, in any state.
Your SUPER DELEGATES, are flocking by the day over to Obama. I hope that when Obama does win the nomination, you decide you are going to vote for McCain instead. Obviously you hate Obama with such disdain that you will NOT vote for him.
Hillary is out of money, she is getting outfundraised by Obama. I truly believe that it could be because of ignorance like yours. People obviously do not want Hillary.
Get over your anger issues, and obviously there are a lot. I think you Hillary would be great candidates for anger management classes.
Lojoes,
I believe you sound just as angry as Aisha. Quite frankly, you also do not sound educated. Please understand that both Obama and Hillary will be friends irregardless who wins. Honestly if you research you will see that Hillary and obama have fought together recently on allot of issues against the republicans. This is not a matter of who is worst to choose rather who is best. The common denominator in everybody thoughts (both Obama and Hillary supporters) is we want this country back to a peaceful and stable envirenment. You are taking away from this went you begin to use words of hate. Good luck and God bless
Arwa,
First let me preface this by saying that I am not angry in anyway. If you read the above blogs, from Aisha, you cant say that she isnt hateful. I am a republican voting for Obama. Plain and simple.
Hillary will WIN this nomination. People are seeing the real Barack Obama now - he is arrogant, all talk, copy-cat, can’t even attend the annual black forum because he is too busy trying to fool people. That was something, he could have spared some time to this very meaningful event. Oh, that’s right, he wanted african-american votes, he got them and now he doesn’t care. I am telling you, this is ALL ABOUT HIM and not the people. He makes himself look as this innocent guy who doesn’t know about washington and what he does he is against it, makes these saintly speeches and behind everybody’s back - does dirty tricks; sounds dangerous. Wake up people and see the real Barack Obama and the REAL Michelle Obama, before it’s too late!
Vote for Hillary; She has been working real hard all her public life for us the people. She really really cares about the country. She has been treated very unfairly by the media. Just yesterday CNN had posted an article about how Obama said he would have quit if he were in Hillary’s position, I think even fox has the video where he’s being all arrogant, his body language and the words he is using, he is so full of himself. The article is challeger vs champ! Anyways, when that article on CNN got anitObama comments they took it off their website and also the comments made by people and replaced it with a more sympathetic headline for Obama. See, that’s just not fair. He is being saved from all the negativity and is not getting any negative remarks from anywhere. That’s the only reason, he’s doing good and is getting so many people to go listen to his speeches, because the media is advertising him and making him into a popular brand. If educated people, like the media says are giving Obama their votes then, I don’t know where they got their education from. Please vote sensibly, vote smart, vote for Hillary ‘08!!
BILL CLINTON IS A ROCK STAR!!!!
Bill Clinton was a very good president and did a lot for our country. What he did in his personal life, is his personal business. He was loyal to our country and our poeple and always worked for each one of us. Our country was flourishing when Bill Clinton was our President. He is still loved and respected around the world. People just love him!!!!
Obama is trying to be like that, but never ever can.
You know there are 5 or 6 people on these boards who sound exactly the same. All Hillary supporter - all sounding like they have the exact same cult like follower energy. All who equally refuses to see what is really going on. Makes me wonder if these people are in fact one person.
Hope Hillary has enough cash for your paycheck!

WTG Lojoes…….its people like Aisha, that give us Democrats a bad name….
Aisha,
Just for the record. I am a WOMAN. Yes I know thats hard to believe, that a WOMAN cannot like BILLARY. I know a snake when I see one. Be careful Aisha, she may offer you an apple…..
If Texas Republican vote for Hillary Clinton in the primary it will at least give McCain and fair shot at the Election. Obama will spin and card any issue. Hillary Clinton know one another and will compete respectfully, as all american should. Obama camp will use the same old tackits, but it appears he claims Dems and Republican use OLD tactics, as if he is independent to both parties.
HUMMMMM.
Absolutely, republicans should vote for Clinton in Texas. I much perfer a fair fight between McCain and Clinton then an underhanded fight between Obama and McCain. Oh yes, Obama his not giving up the money as he promised. CHANGED his mind, is the CHANGE he talks about.

Your posts clearly shows why Hillary will loose this race since the only thing that either one of you says is the same old thing day after day. Hillary and her supporters sound like broken records and cry babies. It’s time you come to your senses and realize that she is finished.

Can someone tell me what the heck is going on with this blog? Aren’t we all supposed to just express or views?
I would like to say that as an independant, I am open to any candidate. I just want whoever is going to do well in the white house. I don’t know if it’s Hillary, Obama, or McCain, but I do know that I am going to be a little more openminded then these two on this blog…geesh
MI VOTES COUNTING…STICK BY THE RULES
I can’t speak for Florida but in Mi our state governor & our democratic party could have reversed their decision & went back to the original primary date to prevent all of this but they choose not
to. They fully knew the ramifacations of that decision. The National Democratic Committee gave them an option to come into compliance or lose their delegates. Now they are crying over spilled milk. The DNC also said that if they have a caucus the delegates will be seated but again our state refused.
Also, there is a rumor going around in Mi is that our (last term) governor (Dem) has been promised a spot in Hillary Clinton’s cabinet when Hillary becomes president. Now of course, tonight on the news, our governor,Jennifer Grandholm, is`supporting Hillarys position on seating the MI snd Fl delegates,as is.
Is this the way it’s played. FL. & MI state democratic partys
did this to their own voters. Not the Democratic National
Committee. And the states democratic party themselves need to make it right…not the Democratic National Committee.
Hillary Clinton is not using MI to cheat & win the race. She should be disqualified for her tactics.
The Clintons have not changed. THEY ARE POWER HUNGRY, CHEATING, LIARS. THAT WILL DO ANYTHING TO WIN EXCEPT PLAY BY THE RULES!
As a woman and a parent I think the clear choice for the Deomocratic Presidential nominee is
Hillary Clinton. Obama HOPE is not enough if it were then action would not be required to bring about positive change all we would have to do is HOPE for it. You make empty promises that you can’t possibly keep if your plan is just to HOPE for them.
I believe in faith, prayer and HOPE but, when I need help I pray to the almighty GOD the Miracle Worker not to OBAMA the self annointed Prince of HOPE.
To Master Conservative,
You’re an idiot!!! Illegal aliens can’t vote.
