Clinton Calls for Independent Investigation; Gets Back to the Issues in Iowa
Hillary Clinton called for an independent, international investigation into the assassination of former Pakistani Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto today. “It needs to be international, it needs to be independent. It needs to have credibility, and nothing that would happen inside of Pakistan would,” she said.
She also said too much American involvement would politicize the process. “I’m reluctant to say it should be an American investigation where we send our law enforcement personnel, because I’m not sure that would have credibility for a different reason.”
Meanwhile, Sen Clinton is back on the stump in Iowa with a distinctly domestic focus today. She’s talking about the housing crisis today, and has a new ad called “President” up in Iowa emphasizing her long commitment to fixing the problem — and contrasting it with George Bush’s inaction. Take a look.

hilly-billy could take a lesson from Ms. Benazir Bhutto. That is a woman leader, without fear , runs only from dedicaton and love for her country. Conviction, honesty, loyality, charactor beyond measure.
Hillary doesn’t even come close. She wouldn’t qualify to polish Bhuttos shoes.
Sen Clinton just showed us her true colors… Lets launch an independent investigation and waste millions of dollars try to play the “Gotcha” game..
Why would we deploy American resources to investigate a Pakistani assasination? Perhaps because calling for it helps Hillary spin her presidential image.
As I read these blog comments and see 5:1 against her, she appears to be truly out of touch with herself and how the American people perceive/feel about her. If they weren’t so entrenced in their 2-for-1 strategy, she and Bill would go quietly.
I did not ask for 2-for-1 then, nor do I ask for it now. That’s just the life-long Clinton strategy that moves Hillary into a position for which she is not qualified.
Every time Bill moves up (think Gov of Arkansas), Hillary moves up with him (think Attorney General of Arkansas). Bill moves up again (think President of the US); Hillary moves up with him again (think US Senate). See the pattern, women?
Consider what America got with the first Clinton co-Presidency:
• Abuse of the powers of the office of the President
• Granting Presidential pardons to buy Hillary’s election to the Senate. As a woman who made it on my own, Hillary’s need to ride Bill’s coattails and her sense of entitlement makes me doubt her capabilities.
• Hillary’s long-suffering marriage to Bill, enabling a lifetime of sexual trysts and trying to contain the Bimbo eruptions, gives me a President without the backbone to stand up to a man. Hillary claims to be tough enough to play with the boys when, in fact, she is unable to leave a cheating husband. How will she stand up to other male leaders who see this in “Mrs.” Clinton and walk all over her?
• Being married to a former President does not make one qualified to be President.
Hillary has less experience in elected office than Barack. She’s held elected office for one Senate term plus one year and has introduced no major legislation during that time. Is this the kind of experience we want in the Oval Office?
I am not a “Hillary hater;” I am an America lover. Please consider very carefully which candidate the Democratic Party puts on the ballot. The future of this country absolutely depends on it.
I understand Sen. Cinton better than I’d like to admitt.. Desparation is very ugly. When you run out of money things seem to take a mind of there own.
