Hillary Clinton: Demagoguing Her Way into the Oval Office
nationalledger ^ | Feb 26, 2006 | Jim Kouri

Posted on 02/26/2006 8:57:20 AM PST by ncountylee

Senator Hillary Clinton (D-NY) blasted the Bush Administration's proposed port management deal with the United Arab Emirates as a move that would "turn over our sovereignty to another country."

The New York Democrat says she's still opposed to the deal and plans to introduce legislation that would block Dubai Ports World or any other company owned by a foreign government from operating US ports. As of today, we have almost 50 members of congress introducing bills to stop the UAE port deal. If only they would propose as much legislation to protect US borders.

Clinton said critical infrastructures like seaports must be operated by the United States, not foreign-owned companies. However, Hillary Clinton critics have pointed out that during her husband Bill Clinton's administration, several ports -- including a US naval base -- were turned over to companies based in communist China, as well as other nations.

According to columnist Charles Krauthammer, in spite of objections voiced by the intelligence community, Clinton pushed for deals with communist China after he allegedly received campaign contributions from Chinese lobbyist Johnny Chung. Krauthammer says that today the intelligence community sees no problem with having the UAE deal go forward.

If the Beast gets elected over a tough stance on the Ports deal and protecting borders, then G.W. will have handed her the presidency on a sliver platter.

"Early in 2009 President Hillary Rodham-Clinton..."

Before that happens, God is just likely to remind Mrs. Bill Clinton in a real personal way what happened to the LAST Junior Senator from New York State to run for President, circa 1968.

Because God really does have a sense of humor, ;)

I would doubt by our standards they do, but I wouldn't be surprised if they think they do. While I would like to think they might have reflected on it, I'm by no means convinced they did.

NEVER FORGET


..The actions of Southern California citizen activists finally saved the U.S. Long Beach Navy Base from being turned over to the Communist Chinese by the CLINTON White House for China Army Money.

Senator INHOFE (R) was alerted and he got voided a CLINTON "Waiver" in the 1998 Defense Budget that otherwise would have permitted the deal to go through. Not long after that the Senator saw his propeller come off his own private plane during his take off to meet President CLINTON for a Hurriance disaster releif tour.

Later JOHNNY CHUNG personally went down to a commplicit Long Beach Mayor and City Council to publically apologize for his hand in this and to expose theirs. A real profile in courage.

In all probability Ron Brown was murdered. His plane didn't just crash into a Croatian hillside. There's a book called RON BROWN'S BODY, author escapes me at the moment. You'd have to special order it. I can't find bookstores stocking it. Wonder why?

I've read it and it points to the plane having been messed with during its landing by people who knew what they were doing.

This book has been completely surpressed by the MSM.

C'mon, think about it. Why would voters be pissed off at Bush about national security...and then turn around and vote for a woman who WILL NOT MAKE AN EFFORT to stop illegal immigration or enact serious profiling, to name only a few issues regarding national security? And if people really, genuinely feel passionately about these national security issues, they won't be fooled by the same old pretense of "concern." They'll look for the real thing and a real track record...............and that sure isn't Hillary.

LoL.. ChinaGate?.. so soon they forget..
National Security technology SOLD on the open market to the highest bidder, the Chinese no less... I want to see some REPUBLICANS HANGED for not pursuing China-gate.. But then the Vinnie Foster affair had its toll.. The message, if we can HIT the The U.S. Asst Attorney General in broad daylight and have the Fort Marcy Park Rangers on their bicycles investigate the murder.. The message:
SO WHO ARE THE HELL ARE YOU?.. had its impact evidently..

Democrats are the party of hate......

they could not get much traction with "hate Bush" even with the help of their lap dogs in the press.

so now they go after arabs.

I first found Free Republic years ago by doing a search on Ron Brown's death. Somehow, I was led to a post about it at the old "Whitewater" page at FR.

Hillary Clinton: blasted the Bush Administration's proposed port management deal as "a move that would "turn over our sovereignty to another country."

Start with a lie, and build on it. The company will not be "managing our ports". all it does is unload and load containers on ships. it does not direct ship traffic, it does not have control over the port in any way. The secuity of the ports is done by homeland secuity, the coast guard, and customs.

The lead sentence should read- Hillary Clinton:- "a move that would "turn over our sovereignty to another country." Democrats have been turning our sovereignty over to another government for decades through agrements and treaties with the UN, which are constitutionaly invalid.

I liked Ron Brown.

He was the anti-Begala.

Begala is smart but such a nasty pessimist.

Brown was a partisan...but a very pleasant man.

Because people are stoopid. Because the Beast will run as a badass conservative. Hopefully, I am overly concerned, but I cannot see handing her or the rest of the rats such opportunities to at least appear to care about national security when they don't.

Lefties can be just as racist as anyone else. It just matters what the group in question's relationship is to Republicans. If Cubans support Jeb Bush, they are maniacs. If Cubans support Fidel Castro, they are honorable.

Deomocrats no longer talk about a jobless revovery or bad-mouth the strong recovery.

They will now try another tact to destroy the economy before the next election.

Shut down ports and trade to disrupt the nation.

They know that there is no American company that can do the job...the unions have them all in a strangle-hold!

You're too kind to Hill -- this is no character flaw. She's the personification of evil.
