Hillary's Senate record
Washington Times ^ | 11/21/04

Posted on 11/21/2004 10:36:37 AM PST by kattracks

Our friends at the National Review spotted this post-election howler in an Associated Press dispatch: "For 2008, the presumptive leading presidential candidates are New York Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton, a Northeastern centrist . . ."

[snip]

• The Americans for Democratic Action (ADA), the self-styled premier liberal organization that issues annual congressional voting ratings by tallying the votes cast on its 20 most important issues, has given Mrs. Clinton scores (ADA cleverly calls them "liberal quotients") of 95 percent for each of her first three years. Mr. Kennedy's ADA ratings have been 100 percent (2001 and 2002) and 95 percent (2003).
    • If the ADA guards the liberal flame in Congress, the American Conservative Union (ACU) performs the same function for conservatives. Mrs. Clinton's average ACU rating (2001-2003) of 11 is not much different from Mr. Kennedy's 5 for the same period.

[snip]

She has compiled an average annual rating of 14 percent from the National Taxpayers Union; Mr. Kennedy's is 13 percent.

[snip]

• Each year the nonpartisan National Journal ranks each senator on three separate liberal/conservative continuums according to dozens of votes cast on economic, social and foreign-policy issues. In 2002, not a single U.S. senator was considered more liberal than Mrs. Clinton on economic and social matters.

[snip]

Mrs. Clinton will surely seek to adopt the "centrist" image over the next few years. To this end, she will undoubtedly be helped by her liberal media friends, who, like Hillary, understand how deadly the liberal moniker is to a politician nationwide. In the interest of truth, The Washington Times editorial page will occasionally take a close look at her positions in order to confirm beyond any freshly arising doubt just how entrenched her liberalism truly is.

Clinton isn't a liberal. She's a leftist.

Just like the unabomber's manifesto was published so he could be more readily identified, we need to have Hitlery!'s undergraduate thesis published so all will know how much, if any, she has morphed from her leftist "training".

She is way to the left of the Leftists, she is a Socialist/Nazi. Nazi stood for National Socialist Party. She is a Communist. If she is presdident and Bill is head of the UN..... watch out. Gonna make Big Brother come alive.

Just in case you forgot

Hillary was no stranger to having her own White House sleepovers to raise money for her NY Senate campaign just like her husband.

Her biggest influences while in college were Saul Alinsky, Carl Oglesby and Marian Wright Edelman. All in which are radical hard-core left wing activists.

Hillary and her husband both loathed the military and did assign them not to wear uniforms on the grounds of the White House.

Hillary’s Democratic delegates heckled and spit on the Albany Honor Guard of the Albany Police Department at a Democratic convention calling them Nazi’s of the third reich.

She walked out on a tip in a NY restaurant before her election and her entire family walked out again in England without even paying their entire bill in a pub.

She actively used the used the Secret Service to block questions from the press including average NY citizens during her campaign run working to her advantage.

She was was the head of her husbands legal defence team during the impeachment trial. Remember the trial included abuse of power with women including sexual misconduct, threats and obstruction of justice.

She had a rumored affair with Vince Foster which is convincing since they both had joint investments in Pharmaceutical stocks with the firm Stevens Investments. Hillary set this up right after her big health care scare failed.

Lets not also forget that the missing billing records from the Rose law firm that were in Vince Fosters office that had been subpoenaed suddenly ended up on Hillary’s night stand with her fingerprints all over the place?

Hillary had a photo op and numerous meetings with a DNC campaign fundraiser Jorge Cabrara who is a convicted drug ringleader.

Cattle-gate Where Hillary turned one thousand dollars into one hundred thousand dollars overnight in cattle futures, which still baffles the best minds working at Wall Street.

Travelgate Hillary was in charge of throwing out the employees of the travel office and hiring family friends and relatives inserting them in a coupd’etat fashion.

Filegate Hillary was also in charge of hiring White House staffers to sift through FBI files illegally obtained by the White House.

Does this women deserve to be our next President?

Hillary is a communist. She did her law internship under the attorney for the Communist Party of the USA, Robert Truehaft of Berkeley.

Hillary Clinton's college thesis was on Saul Alinsky and his book Rules for Radicals. Hillary is a (Senate) closet anarchist.

Nope. She's no anarchist. She favors soviet style big government.

That's a tough but fun test!

Looks like I had the unabomber as the more "rational" (I got much less than half correct), though the differences were always closely nuanced ;-).

Gore is truely a wacko.

If you go back and look at the "things" she and some of her cohorts have tried to put forth, you would change your definition.

** SHE IS A MARXIST **

Unfortunately, with Hillary - already - as the presumptive 2008 DemocRat nominee / candidate for President, we can't wait until then to start - and keep - hammering away at her and exposing her true colors.

That has to start now!

Hitlery needs to be defeated in '06. Can New York Republicans find a decent candidate? Rudy? Colin? Jim P? Anyone??
