(New York - WABC, February 2, 2007) - Senator Hillary Clinton, under fire for her fairly weak opposition to the war in Iraq, is coming out with her strongest words yet against the war.
She says if the war's not over on inauguration day, and she's elected president, she'll end it. As we see the war getting worse and worse, we see Hillary Clinton becoming more and more critical.
Her past support of the war may complicate things for her political future.
**SNIP**
Clinton today spoke before the Democratic National Committee, as did almost every other Democrat running for president.
*SNIP**
Former Senator John Edwards has apologized for his vote to go to war. Today he chastised Bush for his refusal to change.
"This president describes himself as the decider. I got news for you Mr. president, you're not the decider. The American people are the decider and they have decided upon you a very long time ago," he said.
At Friday's DNC meeting in Washington, a few anti-war activists heckled Senator Clinton. They have dogged her every move because of her 2002 vote. But so far, it doesn't seem to be hurting her that much. She remains the clear front runner.

Damn, now Hillary can control the sun. We're worse off than I thought.Hmmmmm. Now I'm wondering...
Just a few presidential elections ago, the RATS were going hard after anyone with a gun. They dropped that just as soon as the last voting booth closed. Could this be more of the same? Get the idiot voters worked up just so a RAT has a better chance of getting elected?
There's something rotten here...

"We have to take our country back."
We need to ask, "Back where?" "Back when?" "Whose country?" "Is there a Democrat's country and a Republican's country?"
Didn't we try that in the 1860s? Do we have to do it again?
We all know the answers to those questions. What we don't know is how those questions will be resolved.

She is NOT her husband. He was a talented SOB.
She's not a natural...I will not be surprised if Obama and Edwards are the ones fighting it out at the finish line.

SEN. CLINTON: You know, when I was in Iowa last weekend, I met -- (interrupted by cheers) -- had a great time. Thank you all very much. (Laughter.) I met a young man, an engineer, who was training his replacement. And he said, "You know, I did what I was supposed to do. I went to college; I got an advanced degree. I've worked hard. And now, I'm training somebody who is going to make one-tenth of what I make."
What does this guy do and who is he training? Several elections past there was a story from Iowa(?), where, the farmer would only hire college grads to operate his $100,000 farm equipment, because, they would take better care of it.
Does Russ Feingold know she is the decider?

Two observations -
1) If that is a recent picture then her face lift fell.
2) She is becoming more "Kerry-ish" then the man, "jon carry," himself!

This is the makeover. She's had the surgery and botox; she has makeup, hair and voice people. Her suits are now brights or pastels so the wardrobe expert has been consulted. Even her DC mansion has been redone by an interior designer for her little web chats.
What more can she do in the next 2 years besides hide in a cave with a bag over her head and a sock in her mouth?

If that is a makeover; I made a wise decision by not having one.
To: Libloather
I pray to God on a daily basis that if The Hildabeaste does take the White House <shudder> that we have a solid Republican Congress to try and keep her in check.
The Hildabeaste as POTUS with a Democrat Congress will be the end of the American Dream. Period!
