HILL'S 'STAND?' WELL, TODAY IS THURSDAY.....(strongest waffler in the pack)
NY POST ^ | November 15, 2007 | KENNETH LOVETT in Albany and GEOFF EARLE in D.C. with Carl Campanile

Posted on 11/15/2007 4:38:21 AM PST by Liz

Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton, who aides recently said supported Gov. Spitzer's controversial plan to grant driver's licenses to illegal aliens, yesterday hit reverse and for the first time came out forcefully against the idea. Clinton's about-face came hours after a besieged Spitzer withdrew his proposal because of massive opposition and just a day before today's latest Democratic presidential debate in Las Vegas. Clinton has taken heat from her Democratic and Republican rivals after fumbling over the issue during the last debate on Oct. 30.

I don’t agree. You are looking at what is probably her pick for Sec. of DHS! Then we’ll get those driver’s licenses for our new voters!

NYT on Hillary's position on driver's licenses, almost one month ago:

Clinton Takes Stand on Driver’s License Issue (Sort Of)



uhhhh. Wait! Not so fast.

October 19: NY Daily News:

Hillary cheers, but doesn’t back Spitzer license plan


Hold on! The wind has shifted.

November 1: Boston.com:

Clinton backs N.Y. driver's license plan for illegal immigrants


Recall Wesley Clark's cry "Mary! Help!" during a presser when he first announced his run in 2004?

Hillary yells: "Bill! Help!">

November 6: Associated Press

Text of Bill Clinton's Comments
I think it's fine to discuss immigration. We should. I believe immigration needs to be discussed. And it's fine for Hillary and all the other Democrats to discuss Governor Spitzer's plan. But not in 30 seconds, yes, no, raise your hand. This is a complicated issue. This is a complicated issue.

If these s-o-bs - and yes, I include Hillary in that description - love Mexico so much, why don't they go there and run for office?

The guy’s entire political future is buried under an avalanche of bad judgement, bad press, and dirty tricks.

Gotta watch out for card-carrying ACLU types like Spitzer-—always bleating about “civil liberties.”

Self-aggrandizing jerks like Spitzer act only in their own best interests..............at the same time these phonies are preaching “tolerance and compassion.”
