Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton blasts President Bush and his "radical" administration on Saturday for attempting to dismantle the "central pillars of progress in our country during the 20th century."
Clinton makes the comments to Saturday editions of the HOUSTON CHRONICLE, sources tell DRUDGE.
The former first lady says she has become convinced the Republican administration wants "to undo the New Deal," the Roosevelt-era policies that ushered in Social Security and a host of other governmental assistance programs.
She said that Bush, who campaigned as a "compassionate conservative" in 2000, had taken a "hard-right turn to pursue an extremist agenda" after moving into the White House.
"I don't know where it came from, but the fact is that this President Bush has not only been radical and extreme in terms of Democratic presidents but in terms of Republican presidents, including his own father," she says.
She believes Bush is beatable next year because his administration is "making America less free, fair, strong, smart than it deserves to be in a dangerous world."
"We have to change direction before irreparable harm is done," she adds.
"This administration is in danger of being the first in American history to leave our nation worse off than when they found it."
Developing...
*YAWN*
Nope...she's wrong...America was MUCH worse off when her husband was in office.
What a moron. I still can't believe NY'ers put her in office. They might as well have voted for the head of some satanic cult.
ROTF! Poor Jean. He doesn't even have the nads to shut her up. With allies like her, who needs an opponent?
Funny, I haven't seen anyone trying to "dismantle the New Deal" yet....and that socialist crap that FDR (may he be barking in Hell) inflicted on this nation needs to be dismantled!
bump!
She has memorized one line in the past four years. Why does everyone think she's smart?
blah blah blah...just more Hillary drivel and drool.
I wish she'd take a hard-right turn off a short pier.
Her Shrillness was also shown polls which show she is the most disliked person in the Rat party.
She is the most polarizing person on the planet and the fear that she could ever be president is overblown.
"This administration is in danger of being the first in American history to leave our nation worse off than when they found it."
Too late that has already been accomplished by first Jimmy Carter and then Bill Clinton.
Ever see the county-by-county map of NYS for the 2000 election? The red bits far outnumbered the blue bits. We can thank the metro areas and the City Of Evil (Ithaca) and environs for Hilliary being elected. Gad, how I wish the red bits would secede.
The only "deal" the Bush administration has been trying to undo are the DEALS made by the Clintons that truly harm America and have made millions for our allies in Europe and the mid-east. No wonder the United Nations and all Socialists/Marxists countries want John Kerry to win – he has as little integrity as Bill Clinton had and they know it and will use it to do business as usual and appease all terrorists........
Any bets that she'll be the keynote speaker in Central Park?
Right you are. Sounds like you might have been reading "FDR's Folly" lately. I love Roosevelt-bashing. He's still their holy of holies.
"We have to change direction before irreparable harm is done," (to the socialist movement which I hunger to lead) she adds
New Yorkers making this no-talent, coattail-riding hack their Senator is one of the most egregiously stupid political acts in American history.
Shrillery is just rehashing the same tired, worn out fearmongering that she has memorized and is part of her m.o.
