The Junior Senator from New York headed to Iowa?

A little bit of buzz out there today is that the Iowa Democratic Party Thomas Jefferson- Andrew Jackson dinner keynote address speaker might be a woman who is married to a Jefferson: (in middle name only)

And represents Jackson Heights in the United States Senate

One Former First Lady Hillary Rodham Clinton, who can count and knows that there arent that many more Jefferson-Jackson dinners between now and January 2008 of next primary season.

About 3/4 down the page for today under the 'Iowa' header.

Is there any IOWA freepers out there to go and freep the wicked witch of the East?

[axel f]

Just the thought of this evil woman so close to my state gives me the creeps.

[ewing]

What is she doing out there in the first place?

[hgro]

Only in Iowa could a lesbian communist liar and thief find a voice in a dimocrat forum.

[ken5050]

Upstaging the other 6? or 8?, or 10? Dem candidates...

Oh, I think 2008 was intentional. She's not going to take on incumbent Bush. Assuming she wins re-election [gag!] in 2006 she'll be in a much better position to challenge for an open seat two years later.

[babaloo]

I know of two. Not sure if we can get close enough due to the fumes from old crusty. In fact, if she comes here I may have a use for my plastic sheeting and duck tape.

When is this blessed event to take place? I'm hoping the Iowa Democrats put together a "straw poll" that will intend to rival the one the Republicans had. It was a HUGE event. Thousands and thousands attended. If you Freepers remember, it was held at Iowa State University and far more showed up than they had expected.

Trying to connect that vile woman in the way they do, with men like Andrew Jackson and Thomas Jefferson, makes me want to puke. There is no shame in those people what-so-ever. They are the antithesis of everything those men stood for.

Being a Southern boy from the Big Easy, Andrew Jackson is particularly close to my heart

.

"Andrew Jackson, (1767-1845), jak's[sch ]n, 7th PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES. A rough-hewn military hero, he was regarded by many as the symbol and spokesman of the common man. Jackson entered the WHITE HOUSE in 1829 after winning the second of two vigorously fought ELECTION campaigns. Through his forceful personality, he restructured the office of the president and helped shape the DEMOCRATIC PARTY as the prototype of the modern political organization.

Less educated and less schooled in government than many of his political opponents, Jackson had leaped to national fame in the War of 1812 as the hero of the Battle of New Orleans and had captured the imagination and dedicated loyalty of a vast segment of the American population. He was widely acclaimed as the symbol of what the new American thought himself to be--a self-made man, son of the frontier, endowed with virtue and God-given strength because of his closeness to nature, and possessed of indomitable will and moral courage."

Why, "only in Iowa"? Iowa, for the most part, is pretty conservative. And unlike many other states, they voted to make English their official language.

Hillary Clinton has more in common with Elizabeth Báthory then she does with Thomas Jefferson

Good Picture, that about says it all!

Thank you very much.....I have a million of them...
