Barack and Hillary: Ideologically Identical
Big Government ^ | Sept 6, 2010 | Ben Barrack

Posted on 09/07/2010 2:31:56 PM PDT by opentalk

The security of our nation is in danger as a direct result of the policies, ideology, and affiliations of our president. Those who clamor for socialism despite its miserable track record invariably defend it by saying it simply wasn’t implemented correctly. Perhaps those relying exclusively on historical accounts warrant a pass in light of a dynamic taking place between Barack Hussein Obama and Hillary Rodham Clinton right now.

Back in April, the Los Angeles Times published the results of a poll that showed support for Hillary rising and support for Obama falling among voters. That trend appears to be continuing. Inherent in these numbers is a contingent of people who jumped the Obama ship and have swum over to Hillary’s.

At least those who call for socialism while never having experienced it have a built-in excuse; they never experienced it.

Not so for the Obamatons turned Clintonistas. Both call Chicago home. Hillary was born there and Obama’s political career was launched there – in the home of Bill Ayers to be exact. Rodham became radicalized while at Wellesley College and was influenced heavily by the work of a Marxist / Maoist and leader of Students for a Democratic Society (SDS), Carl Oglesby. SDS was also the group from which Bill Ayers split to form the Weather Underground.

... Unlike Obama, Hillary not only met Alinsky but she interviewed him for her senior thesis at Wellesley. At one point, he offered her a job with his Industrial Areas Foundation (IAF) – a job she ultimately declined, though ostensibly not for lack of reverence for uncle Saul or his work.

... Interestingly, Hillary landed a job as an intern in 1972 working for a Stalinist attorney allegedly due, in part, to her work coming to the defense of multiple Black Panthers.

Hillary wears ugly pantsuits. Obama needs a teleprompter to sound coherent. They both have embarrassing spouses.

They're both far left radicals with little love for this country.

I wonder why the left and the media think so highly of Hillary?
Is it because of her accomplishemnts? What are they?
What has she ever done that was not marred by scandal or deceit? The Clintons have been involved in politics in the U.S. for far too long. why? are they royalty? When she was First Lady what did she acomplish? when she was a Senator?
As SOS? A big fat zero that’s what. All that is left are her seedy dealings. Now why do people want to flock to Hillary?

It shows in how the state department is being run. Promoting the ground zero Imam and his book. Putting Arizona in a UN report on human rights ....She also talks about wealth redistribution

I can’t see the American public voting for a Chicago Dem anytime for at least another generation. Dems would be foolish to nominate either Barry or Hillary in 2012. The only way the Republicans can blow it is to nominate another dud candidate or if the Dems gin up another Ross Perot type to split the vote.
