WASHINDGTON -- George W. Bush and Hillary Rodham Clinton are finally on the same ticket -- the most admired man and woman in America, according to a poll released Monday.

The Republican president and the Democratic senator from New York and former first lady won't be found on the same sides of many political issues. But they're both seen in a favorable light by the American public.

I prefer pairs of Bushes.

†With God all things are possible.†

How about turning Hillary into a hot conservative chick?

LOLOL!!

Thank you for posting that beautiful picture of our wonderful President and beautiful First Lady. I can now go to sleep without fear of nightmares of evil, old, ugly, wrinkled witches like the one that appears on post #2.

I think I'm going to be sick now.

"We can dream, can't we?"

I think that would take some powerful dreaming...some serious drugs might be in order as well.

[sweetliberty]

Welcome to Free Republic, and don't mind the tough initiation. No newbie escapes.

[expatguy]

I understand about Bush, but Hillary???????

Because she is a female and a large percentage of the public feels pity for her and empathizes with her "struggle". She is a woman shamed who's husband cheated on her.

thank u, sweetliberty!

When people were asked to name the man they admire the most, Bush was picked by 29 percent.

(snip)

Sen. Clinton, was named by 16 percent,

Oh this title heading is very misleading .. it makes it sound like President Bush and Hellary were tied or the poll numbers were very close

Now I would like to know why any one would admire a lying, stealing and corrupt women like Hellary .. who continuously allows herself to be a doormat?

Oh and I LOVED the 3% Bill got ... hehehehe

[DarthMaulrulesok]

Well...Bush I understand (resolute in war and all that) but HILLERY?
Why admire her - for her utter shamelessness and ruthlessness in seeking polititcal power? What has she actually done on her own to benefit the country? I can't think of anything - unless it is to set an example of how to act if you are a power hungry socialist.

[T. Jefferson]

Ask the same poll on Fox News and elephant ankles wouldn't get 1 percent.

I understand about Bush, but Hillary???????

It`s about good and evil...Some will always support good and some will always support Grade A 100% psychotic straight from the deepest bowels of hell, Evil.

<< **I'd take Condi**

Me, too! Condi is definitely a winner! >>

Isn't she a georgeous lady, though?

Course all of those of us of a Capitalistic, FRee-Enterprise, "conservative and/or "right wing" bent have a great place to begin on the road to attractiveness.

We all have brains and the ability to employ and to apply reason and logic.

"It`s about good and evil...Some will always support good and some will always support Grade A 100% psychotic straight from the deepest bowels of hell, Evil."

Yes .. but 29%?

Oh, you mean Senator Clinton, not President Bush!



(See how childish that looks? I can understand you disliking the Clintons - but this pathological hatred is not unlike the lunacy over at DU.)

Jeez...I admire my own senators more than I do Hillary. Not that I'm voting for Dianne Feinstein or (God forbid) Barbara Boxer any time soon, but they made their own way in politics, instead of riding on their husbands' coattails.

[No Dems 2004]

I can never understand how ANYBODY could admire a low-level opportunist like Hillary Clinton. I mean, she's even ineffective as a senator - when was the last time you heard her bridge partisan gaps or anything - she's just another plug for Democratic filibusters.

I don't admire her any more than I do the president of France.

[Leroy S. Mort]

How about turning Hillary into a hot conservative chick?

When the Clinton/Clark ticket emerges from the convention, half the electorate will be convinced she was that all along. Emphasising Dean's looneyness only makes Hillary seem more "moderate"...it's all in the plan.

The same Queen of Darkness who wrote this slop:

"Protest is part of the search for self-definition, the attempt at coming to terms with our humanness. We are all of us exploring a world that no one understands and attempting to create within that uncertainty ............, we’re searching for more immediate, ecstatic, and penetrating modes of living."

What a load, and how admirable!

"we’re searching for more immediate, ecstatic, and penetrating modes of living" - like cattle futures? What a woman.

I think this is nothing more than another prod at Hillary to run against Bush.

The media has been propping her up since Wellesley in 1969. The mainstream/liberal/communist-leaning/one-world media is America's strongest, most destructive ENEMY, and won't stop promoting her until she is President.

This woman who claimed to a roomful of school children and others years ago that she was named after Sir Edmund Hillary. Unfortunately, Edmund Hillary was an obscure beekeeper in New Zealand when she was "born", and Edmund did not scale the mountain until six years later!

This Hillary? --- "Senator Hillary Clinton's inner circle is furious at MIRAMAX king Harvey Weinstein after the former first lady suffered through a public relations nightmare during Saturday's AMERICA: A TRIBUTE TO HEROES concert in New York City.

Hillary Clinton was jeered and booed by thousands gathered at Madison Square Garden as she took to the stage -- unannounced -- to introduce a movie clip. VH1 cameras captured firemen and police heroes wildly booing Clinton, who attempted to raise her voice above the shouting crowd.

"Get off the stage! We don't want you here!" yelled one New York City police officer just feet from the senator. Anti-Clinton slurs spread and intensified throughout the Garden, with many standing near the stage lobbing profanities.

Event-planner and close Clinton friend Harvey Weinstein was visibly shaken as he heard the crowd erupt with boos and jeers, according to an eyewitness. The junior senator from New York ending up giving the shortest presentation of the evening, clocking in at under 20 seconds.

"How could we not know this would be the wrong forum for Hillary?!" shouted one confidante. "These are cops and firemen who listen to right-wing talkradio. They still think she killed Vince Foster, for Christ sake!"

Other New York politicians received warmer welcomes during the 5-hour concert which featured Paul McCartney, Mick Jagger, Elton John and others. Former President Bill Clinton, who took the stage minutes after his wife, worked over scattered boos with talk of the rescuers' heroism. Following the Clintons, James Taylor soothed the heroes with an acoustic FIRE AND RAIN.

The concert raised millions of dollars for September 11 relief efforts.
