Sen. Hillary Clinton took no guff from her Democratic challengers at Thursday night's debate in Las Vegas, landing effective counterpunches when Sens. John Edwards and Barack Obama tried to bash her.

What I heard last night were several different versions of:

1. Abortions for everyone
2. Out of Iraq now—raise the white flag
3. Health care for all
4. Tax the rich
5. Bush is bad

None of the candidates strayed from these main points. The rest was just style.

OK, so this really isn’t like high school debate. In fact, it really isn’t debate at all. It’s a show. And all of the “debaters” practice and put together lines (or their writers put together lines) they’re going to throw in somewhere, even if it’s completely off topic. Most of them set up complete mock debates that include nastier questions and accusations than they actually get.

I NEVER watch the “debates” on either side. It’s a complete waste of time, IMO.

Not one candidate on that stage last night showed any of the leadership qualities,intelligence or class necessasary to be the next POTUS and that included the vastly overrated Humpty Dumpy Clinton. the democrat party should be ashamed! These candidates are the dregs of a once proud political party.

I was really impressed by the video! I exchanged a few FreepMails with Freeper jwb0581 and found out he did the whole thing using free video editing software he picked up off the Web.

Even though the video was released soon after Hillary's official anouncement to run for President its subject "Stop Hillary Now" is valid! And the video is very moving!

Please share the youtube link with all Freepers.

And what is with Edwards using the term “neocon”?

Notice how whenever the audience seems to be buying what a candidate is saying, Hillary will nod her bitchy head in agreement to suck the oxygen out of the room and make it all about her.

Ubama and Edwards LOST their fleeting opportunity to get a knock-out punch. They had her on the ropes and they both threw in the towel and instead will go down in history as “nice” losers.

Did anyone notice she bragged about Tip O’Neill and Reagan ‘fixing’ social security in 1983, and no one questioned her:

If they fixed it then, why does it need to be fixed AGAIN?

The truth is, they raised the payroll taxes to put money in the lockbox for the boomers and true to form, it was spent. A more true fact of why tax hikes never work has ever been presented in a debate and no one picked it up and ran with it. — not unexpected from Democrats whose toolbox only has ‘raise taxes’ on a slip of paper inside — that and the larger than life O’Neill who cannot be criticized by democrats.

Little Wolfie rolled over like an obedient little puppy dog and let the Pretzel and her demons pet him all night long. What a mealy mouthed disgrace.

How about asking the Pretzel some questions about her flip-flopping, illegal immigration stances, planted questions, illegal campaign contributions, campaign contributions from those Bubba pardoned, her REAL qualifications (NONE), her dysfunctional household, etc, etc, etc?

Hillary “Pretzel” Clinton is so vastly unqualified with massive amounts of negative and criminal baggage in her past. Believe me, much more of this will be exposed in the next year.

One thing in our favor we didn’t have back in 1992 and 1996 with Bubba’s elections is the predominance of the internet and places like Youtube. If people around the nation could have watched “The Clinton Chronicles” as you now can online, they never would have voted for a sexual predator like Mr. Clinton. In the last Presidential election, millions of people saw the Swiftboat commercials on TV and probably even more on the internet. It’s time to Swiftboat the Pretzel (Hillary).

Anyone who has been cheated by, lied to, fondled/raped by, or has knowledge of the criminal activities these two deviants have been involved with in the last 30+ years needs to come forward in mass making Youtube videos and getting the word out to a worldwide audience. Peter Paul and others are doing this now.

This isn’t the Walter Cronkite world of news reporting anymore, and the liberal dimms hate it like cockroaches hate the light.

Swiftboat the Pretzel!

My daughter occasionally gets guff when she highlights her native-American heritage. She doesn’t “look” Indian. But truth be told, most native Americans are not a race, but mixed race. My sister as “looks” as Indian as any full-blood.

The problem is when the candidates are not asked questions whose answers probably have not been rehearsed—or cannot be answered.. Rudy has reparedly asked what her experience amounts to? What has she actually done? The question by Russert about the Clinton papers was a dagger thrust, because it threatened to reveal her lack of personal; accomplishment.

“her cackle”

Right after her “I am woman, hear me roar (but don’t be mean to me)! speech? Then they panned back to Wolfie.

Yep, I heard it too and I’m hard of hearing: it sounded like the Witch of East cackling at Dorothy and Toto!

Interesting. The MSM usually uses the word “fiery” to describe communist or tinpot dictators.

Try a Lexis-Nexis search.
