New York Sen. Hillary Clinton opened up both barrels on supporters of President Bush Monday night, saying she's "sick and tired" of the way the patriotism of Bush's critics has been questioned.
"I am sick and tired of people who say that if you debate and you disagree with this administration somehow you're not patriotic," a shrill-sounding Clinton shouted during her address to Connecticut's Jefferson Jackson Bailey dinner.
"We should stand up and say, we are Americans and we have a right to debate and disagree with any administration," she shrieked.
The non-presidential candidate, who's miles ahead of every other Democratic presidential hopeful in every poll that includes her name, zeroed in on the economy, saying that Bush had given the nation the worst economic policies since the Great Depression.
"In just two years, the country again faces hefty budget deficits," she said. "We are, unfortunately, reaping the bad consequences of a wrong economic policy. They have the most wrong-headed economic policies that we've seen since Herbert Hoover."
In an attempt to explain why the country wasn't saddled with the bread lines and street-corner apple salesman of the Hoover-era, Clinton said, "People know better than what they hear and what they see."

Uh huh. Personally, I'm sick and tired of people who undermine the President and military in time of war while claiming that they're "patriotic" and "support the troops."
FDR took office in 1933. Did not bad economic times continue through the mid-1930s and even into the late-'30s? Perhaps economic ups-and-downs are in large part cyclical, irrespective of who's in office. And maybe there's a carry-over lag-time from the previous administration. And perhaps Sen. Clinton should say, "They have the most wrong-headed economic policies that we've seen since Franklin Roosevelt." And maybe the FDR/LBJ Social Security/Medicare taxes are an oppressive burden on the American taxpayer. Ya think?

Top Democratic Strategist Declares: 'Hillary is running in 2004'
NewsMax Special ReportNew audiotape and report reveals embarrassing secrets that could derail her ambition to recapture the White House...
Dear NewsMax Reader:
Let me give you an announcement that will cause Hillary Clinton's blood pressure to spike and may hurt her chances of being elected president in 2004.
You see, NewsMax has just released an explosive one-hour audiotape - "Hillary Up Close" - exposing the hidden story about Hillary from Arkansas State Trooper Larry Patterson.
This tape is NewsMax's one-hour interview with Trooper Patterson, who reveals the skeletons dangling in Hillary's closet - skeletons you haven't yet heard about.
At last, Hillary's most embarrassing secrets are laid bare for all to see. You'll be better informed about the Clintons than 99 percent of your friends and relatives after you've heard this new tape.
Trooper Patterson guarded Hillary for six years. That's how he became virtually a part of the Clinton family. Patterson is rock solid. His credibility is impeccable and his story will boggle your mind.
In this shocking tape, he exposes the real Hillary Clinton.
Hillary Rodham recognized that she could never become president simply by herself. So she latched onto a charismatic young liberal classmate at Yale Law School named Bill Clinton.
Patterson reveals - for the first time - Hillary's utter contempt for the people of Arkansas and her shocking, crude remarks made behind closed doors about blacks, Jews, police officers, Republicans and others.
As Patterson puts it, Arkansas and its voters were mere "stepping stones" for her true quest: the White House.
There's a lot more about Hillary he shares - details never revealed by the press - some too graphic to print here. This tape is definitely the REAL Hillary UNCENSORED!
Patterson Walks in on Hillary & Vince Foster
Trooper Patterson shares the Clinton secrets, including why he believes Vince Foster really died and details about Hillary's steamy relationship with her one-time law partner - including a shocking encounter he saw the pair engaged in!
Trooper Patterson also reveals why he believes the Vince Foster he knew so well didn't die of suicide but was murdered in cold blood. You may have wondered how Hillary was able to tolerate Bill's innumerable, brazen adulteries.
After all, no self-respecting wife would put up with it. But as Trooper Patterson explains, Hillary's relationship with Bill Clinton was a marriage of convenience - a "business partnership" rather than a real marriage.
That's why Bill could do anything - even get caught with his pants down in the Oval Office - and she shrugged it off instead of walking out in disgust. Hillary knew from the start that Bill was as guilty as sin in the Monica Lewinsky scandal. But she couldn't admit it publicly.
Instead, she followed the advice of the country music hit "Stand By Your Man" and blamed the scandal on that "vast right-wing conspiracy." This would be laughable if Hillary weren't so dangerous.
Many of us laughed when Hillary announced her bid to be the next senator from New York. You probably did too. But we're not laughing now that she's in the Senate, are we?
Hillary won New York by a landslide because practically everyone underestimated her. She even carried SOLID REPUBLICAN DISTRICTS! This is amazing!
No, we can't afford to underestimate Hillary again. She's the last person America can afford to see in the Oval Office with her hand on the red telephone.
Spreading the unvarnished truth is the only thing that will stop Hillary from winning the 2004 presidential election. That's why NewsMax wants you to get this shocking new tape into your hands so that you can hear the secrets with your own ears.
New Report Corroborates Patterson, Reveals More Secrets
Trooper Patterson's claim that Hillary definitely plans to be president is corroborated in Carl Limbacher's new report, "Hillary Clinton Plans for the Presidency," which reveals even more secrets.
You've probably heard Carl Limbacher on Rush, Fox News, CNN and other major news and talk shows. Carl is a topnotch investigative writer for NewsMax.
Limbacher's 40-page report shows that Hillary began preparing for her own tenure as president as soon as she arrived in the White House in 1993.
Hillary throws temper tantrum and screams at Bill; dozens of security officers listen in shocked amazement.
In fact, the first major crisis in the new administration was when she demanded, in a screaming match with Bill heard by dozens of security officers, that she be given Al Gore's vice presidential office, right next to the Oval Office!
Hillary always saw herself as the successor to Bill Clinton.
In fact, Clinton staffers openly talked of their "12-year plan" - based on the notion that Bill would serve two terms and Hillary at least one.
These details are all revealed in the new tape and new report, now available from NewsMax ... just Just Click Here.
Scary? Of course. Laughable? Definitely not!
In "Hillary Clinton Plans for the Presidency" you'll find out the full story, including:
* Hillary's formation of HillPac - her pre-presidential war chest that is serving as her presidential committee
* Her takeover of the Democratic National Committee, headed by her and Bill's puppet, Terry McAuliffe * Her lockout of Al Gore - who has been blacklisted by Hillary from Democratic bigwig donors * Her secret poll numbers that show she can win the Democratic nomination and maybe even the presidency
* Hillary's strange and worrisome alliance with Sen. John McCain (even Tim Russert of "Meet the Press" discussed this NewsMax exclusive on-air)
* The top Democratic strategist who says boldly, "Hillary is running"
* Details of her recent trip to Iowa, the first stop of her presidential run.
...and much, much more.
Why haven't you heard this from the major liberal media? Real simple - the media love Bill and Hillary.
In fact, the Roper study shows that 89 percent of the Washington press corps voted for Bill Clinton in 1992! And you can be sure that the same people are for Hillary.
Only one media organization is shining a light on the Clintons and Hillary's power grab: NewsMax.com and NewsMax Magazine.
NewsMax is already spearheading the effort to expose Hillary's corruption and to stop her in her tracks.
NewsMax is the ONLY media organization holding Bill and Hillary accountable for their gross negligence that led directly to the events of Sept. 11.
In an upcoming edition of NewsMax Magazine, we will also be reporting on an FBI agent who will soon go public. He claims that Sept. 11 could have been avoided - but Clinton policies prevented the FBI from rooting out al-Qaeda's network here in the U.S.
NewsMax has a big job ahead as we seek to expose the Real Hillary Clinton.
OK Hillary. Exactly what would you be doing differently, and why would it work?
And when Mrs. Clinton gets angry..............
People DIE !!!!!
Are you going to believe me or your lying eyes? The real tragedy is that 40% of America will answer "You, oh goddess of give a way doles".
BTW, I heard the sound byte on the radio, and "shrill" is an understatement..she was rabid...foaming at the mouth...

Clinton was asked whether she favored regulation of the Net. She said she didn't yet know, but commented:
"Anytime an individual or an institution or an invention leaps so far out ahead of that balance [contemplated by the Founders] and throws a system, whatever it might be -- political, economic, technological -- out of balance, you've got a problem, because then it can lead to the oppression of people's rights, it can lead to the manipulation of information, it can lead to all kinds of bad outcomes which we have seen historically. So we're going to have to deal with that."
I think she means people with access to an alternative source of information other than Dan Rather and his kind can lead to all kinds of bad outcomes.
Is that critics from the right only??
Okay, Hillary, but keep it fact based and civil. No silly, vague statements designed to inspire fear or disgust where the plain truth wouldn't. No name calling. No comments designed to manipulate human emotions.
Ah, you've nothing to say now, huh Hillary?
'nuff said
I left out a word - NOBODY is questioning Bush's critics "patriotism".
I wasn't speaking for everyone who has an opinion, obviously. I was referring to Bush public supporters, who have been VERY careful not to impugn the critics patriotism. More careful than I would have been.
