From Bush to Clinton to Bush to.....Clinton???



yeah, the election is far off...but not that far away. I'm not huge into politics, but i do watch the news daily and so it's on all the time. yesterday (i watch Brian Williams on NBC) it was reported that conservatives are starting to show lots of support to Hillary and her campaign. They report that a wave towards Hillary is due to an overwhelming frustration with the Bush administration. They say that conservatives are remembering how great things were when Bill was in office as opposed to the frustration of now.... Ok, not gonna get into the agenda's here. I love Bush's personality and antics - how can he not crack you up - he's totally the kinda guy you would want to invite over to watch the Super Bowl, but he is a public relations idiot.



What blows my mind about this wave of change in support is how idiotic people are with the claim that things were better when Bill was in office. Well, duh....Clinton was the "Kramer" of the Presidential corpus. Everything fell into his lap - it couldn't have gone bad. People rave about the time of "peace" we had, well Clinton followed Regan's end of the Cold War, and Senior Bush's middle east conflict - we had no one's ass left to kick, of course there was peace. People rave about how the economy was booming, ummmm this thing called THE INTERNET broke into culture and naturally created thousands of jobs - not exactly a governmental program. But of course Al Gore's outrageous claim to the invention has led some to believe Clinton was behind it. That claim reminds me Dr. Evil speaking of his father "My father would womanize, he would drink. He would make outrageous claims like he invented the question mark. Sometimes he would accuse chestnuts of being lazy. The sort of general malaise that only the genius possess and the insane lament." I don't know a lot about the history of the Presidency and what each man has had to go through, but in recent history no one has delt with more than "W". I mean we suffer the worst attack ever on American Soil which launches a nation wide fear of terror, the Stock Market plummeted as soon as he was sworn in, and then we suffer the worst natural disaster in our countries history. Somehow Bush "didn't see" 9/11 coming, attempted to recreate Black tuesday, and then is responsible for some genormous wave washing out New Orleans. Listen, I really have felt loads of sympathy for what that city has gone through - but they said the storm was going to be aweful and screamed "GET OUT" - when in doubt blame Bush i guess.

Still, are we really gonna elect a woman?? Are conservatives really gonna jump on board with her?? I still think that NY and LA just don't get it - the rest of the country is on a different political map. Some country reneck is not gonna vote for a woman.....at least no one from Sweet Emotion that is.

I don't bye the rhetoric that conservatives are showing support for Hilary. Let's just be honest, if conservatives are showing support for Hilary...they aren't conservative. Hillary supports big government, abortion, gay marriage (i think), pretty anti-war, etc. Hmmmm....quite a few of the things conservatives are against. Anyway, I like the political talk.

I miss Al Gore's ridiculous claims. Too bad he's finally been labeled a wacko...because it was fun when the media paid attention to him.

So the only reason you have to NOT to vote for her is because she has a vagina? Not because she's a rabid liberal, or pro-choice, or a Clinton, or anything else? Interesting.

I think Hilary Clinton had something to do with the dissappearance and death of JFK jr. - there I said it - I don't have proof - but...those Clinton's are twisted - you know - he was going to run against her for Senator of NY....did marianne say vagina in her comment?

Well if any support comes from the conservatives for Hilary, I would have to say they might do it simply to sink the Democrats as the USA will not elect a woman, simple as that.

how do we know that Bill did not push Hillary into such a strong image during his presidency so that he could secretly control the country for another 8 years during his wife's "presidency"?? knowing the path is through appeasing some conservatives??


...and Yes Marianne, let the record know that i have nothing against "Vaginas" - but i'm not sure if Hilary qualifies in that category.

It's vagina. No quotes needed. As Bill Parcells says, "It is what it is. "

...um...what just happened here? I have read the word vagina more in the last 2 minutes than i have the previous 29.5 years. I think i commend you...I think.

and, just a general question: what does it take to get your comment "removed" by the blog administrator? It must have been much worse than "vagina"...not that there is anything wrong with that.
