Without question, Hillary Clinton is using every weapon of mass deception in her arsenal to attain the Presidency. With a solid lock on the liberal vote, Clinton is now pursuing moderate voters with breath-taking zeal. Senator Clinton has been remarkably successful at distancing herself from her husband’s legacy of appeasing Osama bin Laden by casting herself as one of the few Democratic Party leaders who supports the liberation of Iraq. While she may be successful at fooling a pliable public, one of the major issues that will stand in her way is her unabashed support for abortion on demand.
The current battle over President Bush’s Supreme Court nominee, Judge Samuel Alito, has demonstrated that our nation is deeply divided over the subject of abortion. There is no question that Senator Clinton’s judgment on the issue swings far to the left and will become a major subject of debate during the 2008 election cycle. However, in her typically pathological fashion, Clinton has been gradually trying to recast herself as a moderate within the "Pro-Choice" community. For example, Senator Clinton, in a move that can only be described as "immaculate deception", has recently come out against partial birth abortion. As with all Pavlovian politicians, she must now realize that this achievement has produced the reflexive positive reward that she sought; because she is now taking a stand against China’s policy of forced abortion.
Senator Clinton has recently spoken out about China’s "one child" policy by attacking the "forced abortions" that are a part of that nation’s domestic plan. In her never ending quest to co-opt the public discourse, she has even gone so far as to demand that President Bush address the topic with China’s President Hu Jintao when he visits China this week. It is certainly fitting for President Bush to address this essential Human Rights issue during his mission to China, but for Clinton to demand such an action is nothing but pure conceit.
President Bush has actively fought against "forced abortions" in China by suspending payments from the United States to the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA). UNFPA funds abortions in 150 third world nations as part of their mission to control the world’s population. Under the presidency of William Jefferson Clinton, the United States enthusiastically allowed taxpayers’ dollars to be directed into the coffers of UNFPA. This is, of course, not surprising as both Clintons have never made a secret of their fondness for the abortion "right". Conversely, President Bush has put an end to using taxpayer funds to pay for foreign abortions by withholding money from UNFRA; citing the Kemp-Kasten amendment which prohibits U.S. funding of coercive abortion and forced sterilization.
A 2002 report by the U.S. State Department found that UNFPA funds were being used in China for the "imposition of a birth limitation policy coercive in nature that resulted in instances of forced abortion and forced sterilization." Furthermore, that same study also found that the officials of UNFPA had worked closely with officials in China who employed coercive methods of population control.
Despite the Senator’s public declarations denouncing China’s policies, and her demand that President Bush address the issue of forced abortion while in China, Clinton has been quietly working behind the scenes to restore funding to UNFPA. Using the Senate’s recent tsunami relief legislation as a cover, Clinton introduced an amendment to the bill which called for renewed U.S. funding for UNFPA. The amendment, which she proposed to the 2006 Foreign Operations Appropriations Bill, would have resulted in China, once again, having access to U.S. taxpayers’ dollars to help fund its universally denounced program of "forced contraception".
By proposing her amendment to the Foreign Operations Appropriations Bill, Clinton is knowingly supporting China’s policy of "forced abortion". Despite this blatant disregard for basic Human Rights, Clinton is now attempting to, once again, reinvent herself for her own political benefit. Evidently, it appears that Senator Clinton truly believes that the United States has become such an Orwellian society that the history of her actions can simply be erased by a few carefully placed public statements. Lamentably, she may just be right.

Ugh.
The very thought of there being more than one face like that is a hurl-a-rama.
Unthinkable.
I certainly would not refer to the hikldebeast as a horse's MOUTH!
Let's see how she votes tonight.
Yeah I hope the extra face that the HILDABEAST has is a tad prettier than the one she ususally runs around with.
Ha, another Clintoon in the white house. No chance. This nitwit is toast and I hope she is the RAT selection.
"I certainly would not refer to the hikldebeast as a horse's MOUTH!"
I didn't. That would only be an insult to my blog.
oh, good. we woeuldn't want to get our ends mixed up, would we?
Even my Dem friends don't like her... it isn't going to happen.
I think it's just the House....
Only two faces? I could have sworn she had seven serpentine heads.
Never underestimate Lady MacBeth. Now is the time for people to relentlessly point out every single hypocritical statement she utters, for the next 3 years. Some folks have a short attention span and need to be constantly reminded.
PS: don't insult horses ;-)
LOL.Reminds me of a quote attributed to Lincoln.When told he was two-faced,he is reported to have said;
"If I had two faces,would I be wearing this one?
Hillary would get a significant number of votes just because she is a Democrat and just because she is a female. Many will vote gender and party no matter what.
Do not grant to the federal govenrment today any powers you do not want Hillary to have tomorrow.
should turn it around: it would be more like her
butt - face.
Both hideous...
"Many will vote gender and party no matter what."
If she runs, that's why I hope the Republican Party will be smart enough to run Condi against her. That will cancel Hitlery's gender card while appealing to black voters.
I agree razorgirl. Some libs I know don't like her either.
