But I thought they were her friends! Didn't she help some of them get pardoned by her "husband" when he was (gag) in office?

Guess Bill and Hillary forgot to pardon this guy when they pardoned 20 or so P.R. terrorists.

I have the solution for these demonstrators: let Congress declare P.R. indendence immediately and cut off the flow of federal $$$. We have been subsidizing this backwater long enough....

amid fears the killing of a Puerto Rican nationalist in an FBI shootout could lead to a resurgence of pro-independence violence.

Why don't we give them their independence? They are an Island with nothing to offer the US. I say go on your own!

These guys must be hard core if they would kill their own.

There is a presence of hot-head dip-sticks down there, but when the votes are taken, the majority still want to be a part of the U.S.

Hell! She is their HERO! The only thing she is afraid of would be their demonstrations of LOVE for the her!

It would NOT play well for the "centrists" (Why does that remind me of a politburo term?) in the US to see the anarchist and criminals so devoted to the clintons.

They are a welfare state. Just the way she likes it.

Puerto Rico should no more be judged by these scumbags than America should be judged by the A.N.S.W.E.R. crowd.

IMHO the Puerto Ricans should have their independence so we can quit spending millions on them yearly.

Am I wrong, or didn't Puerto Rico have a referendum regarding statehood, territory or independence? Didn't they choose the status quo?
