McClatchy Newspapers ^ | Feb3,2008 | By Matt Stearns | McClatchy Newspapers

WASHINGTON — To hear Hillary Clinton talk, she's spent her entire career putting her Yale Law School degree to work for the common good.

She routinely tells voters that she's "been working to bring positive change to people's lives for 35 years." She told a voter in New Hampshire: "I've spent so much of my life in the nonprofit sector." Speaking in South Carolina, Bill Clinton said his wife "could have taken a job with a firm ... Instead she went to work with Marian Wright Edelman at the Children's Defense Fund.".....

Her “35 years” are actually just 7 years in office. Anyhow, Sheets Byrd has been in office for 100 years, but that doesn’t mean I’m gonna vote for him.

Clinton worked at the Children's Defense Fund for less than a year, and that's the only full-time job in the nonprofit sector she's ever had.

Tsk...facts are stubborn things.

What’s truly astounding is McClatchy Newspapers are known for hard leftist editorial positions. Here they are, attacking a patron saint.

And what has she actually accomplished? Any claims of her experience are a joke. Obama can't attack it however as he has none himself.

Yes, but it is the PAPER work during those 8 years as copresident is what they are hiding. They do not want the American public to know what it really means that she was copresident, she cleared everything Bill said and even make him retract what he did say if he did not get her permission first....

Remember Congressional leaders standing on the White House grounds after a meeting with old BJClinton and within the hour somebody out of the White House claimed he said something different???

(remember the investigation on General Franks somebody leaked right at the beginning of the 'WAR'.... it was about his wife being where some claimed she ought not be.)

One of the more mystifying things about this election is how Hillary Clinton has succeeded in portraying herself as the “most experienced” candidate in the Democratic primary. Barack Obama has more years in government and has won twice as many elections, but even he has bowed his head to it and been reduced to arguing that it’s “Good judgment that counts, not experience”. How did a smooth-talking, Harvard-grad law professor fall into that?

Obama's actually been in representative government for several years longer than she has.

I've wonder the same thing. It's almost as if he's...afraid of her or something.

She has never “served” anyone but herself.

“...so much of my life in the non-profit sector”. Right, she’s been unemployed. The bum on the street corner could say the same thing.

I wonder if this really IS an attack on hillary. It gets some of the most damaging facts out there, yet it hardly says anything about what they really represented.

I suspect the opposite. This is calculated to get the facts out there in a monotone, so they can say, yes, they have “reported” them, and besides, it’s “old news.”
