You know, I’ve about had it with the Republicans. Wednesday night’s “debate” proved they are a bunch of dirty, low-down, mean, nasty skunks who will stop at nothing to trash, denigrate, demean, and otherwise disrespect my guy, Senator Obama. When a campaign stoops so low as to use a candidate’s actual words and personal associations against him, then I weep for the future of social democracy in this soon-to-be-great land of ours. Come the election, we’ll know how to deal with people like this!

Last nights debate between Clinton and Obama was a big eye-opener for me. As they both attacked each other, just what did that ackowledge about their experience and leadership qualifications? This is serious business folks!

Clinton says sniper fire: http://youtube.com/watch?v=FfWIjv13XX0 Chelsea agrees: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kwIsjd3KPPoandfeature=related This daughter of privilege either lies when asked questions or says it's none of our business. Who does she think she is and why would American's believe anything that comes out of her mouth? The Clinton's are becoming a bigger joke than the un-educated and elderly that still support them but that is all she seems to have left. She seems so very desperate these days with lie after lie from helping the Irish Peace Process, to these lies above over Bosnia. The fact that her mother lies and she backs it up should stop us all in our tracks. After being lied to for years by these people (remember Whitewater, Travelgate, Vince Foster's murder, the hiding of evidence, the lying under oath in a sexual harassment lawsuit, the lies to America about that relationship, the impeachment, stealing and having to return furniture from the White House when they left... when is enough enough America?

Why I, Pro-Hillary, Changed. I was very much pro Hillary from the beginning of the campaigns. I still very much like her policy positions, her speeches, her personal enthusiasm, her energy, and very appealing projected cheerful positive personality. There is not that much difference between her underlying positions and Obama's. However over time, and a deeper reading and review of Obama's many positions, speeches, anecdotes and reviews of Obama's leadership capabilities, mental and strategic insightfulness and adaptability, and underlying personality, I have come to believe that Obama is much much more substantial in all qualities as a presidential candidate. The last straw of disappointment came with the unforgettably repeated Bosnia whopper and the subsequent attempts to dismiss questions about it. I worried that it might be the tip of the iceberg. There are several possibilities each of which is not good: 1. Did she really miss-remember? If so, what does that say about the acuteness of her Presidential mental tools? I.e., we are in trouble. 2. Did she fantasize and develop an extremely detailed fantasy of the events and then believed her embellished fantasy? If so, what does that say on how we can trust her in forming the foundations of her judgments in the future as a president? I.e., we are in trouble. 3. Did she deliberately and consciously lie and in detail, to further herself? If so, does that show an underlying weakness towards using that type of a crutch in critical pressure situations either to steam roller others or to hide a position or worse? I.e., we are in trouble. See also, http://online.wsj.com/article/SB120663639483768965.html?mod=todays_columnists Looking further into this concern, I now believe that she really does have a repeating pattern of lapses in personal integrity. I still like her positions and presentations. However I think she is not electable. I don't think she has the fantasy of a chance against John McCain, the straight talking express, and his team, and the Republican Swift boaters. There are several specific instances noted below. Her boss on the Nixon impeachment team, Jerry Zeifman, the General Counsel and Chief of Staff of the House Judiciary Committee, a life long democrat, says her pattern of deception and unethical behavior goes back much further; he says - He fired her and refused to give her a letter of recommendation, "Because she was a liar, .... She was an unethical, dishonest lawyer. She conspired to violate the Constitution, the rules of the House, the rules of the committee and the rules of confidentiality." http://www.jzeifman.com/ He "regrets" that he "had not reported her to the appropriate bar associations. .... Eventually, because of a number of her unethical practices I decided that I could not recommend her for any subsequent position of public or private trust." http://www.aim.org/aim-column/hillarys-crocodile-tears-in-connecticut Hillary wrote a fraudulent legal brief, and confiscated public documents to hide her deception. .... The brief was so fraudulent and ridiculous, her boss Zeifman believes Hillary would have been disbarred if she had submitted it to a judge. http://www.jzeifman.com/ In the Whitehouse Travelgate firings, she denied having any involvement in the firings. An independent counsel grand jury investigation took sworn testimony from many people working with her, and elicited that she had directed the firings, and the independent counsel concluded that Hillary's testimony was factually false. http://www.nationalreview.com/york/york061303.asp Does anyone really believe that she, with no prior or subsequent experience of stellar success to show in stock and commodity trading really believe that out of the blue she was able to earn 10,000% in one year of commodity trading ($100,000 of profits after starting with $1,000, or eighty times George Soro's best year) with the biggest gains on short selling, on her own after spending some time perusing the Wallstreet Journal as she says? That was unquestionably an assisted trading favor in the shade of under the table compensation (and at worse, a bribe through fraudulent transactions). http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m1282/is_n3_v47/ai_16709018 There are numerous other anecdotes on the web. http://www.realclearpolitics.com/articles/2008/03/hillarys_list_of_lies.html http://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?res=9905EFDC1339F93BA35752C0A960958260andscp=5andsq=william+safire+blizzard+of+liesandst=nyt How can we have such a person be President? She would have to be dealing and negotiating with multiple foreign leaders, domestic leaders, many different constituencies, all having different agendas. Would she be agreeing to or promising one thing after she had forgotten prior promises in another direction? Would she be saying one thing, while working behind the scenes to do something else? Would she be fabricating fantasies to support her positions when such positions are unfounded and have no popular support? Who can trust her? We had a problem with President Nixon's integrity, working surreptitiously behind the scenes at Watergate. We have a problem with President Bush's character, fantasizing about weapons of mass destruction in Iraq, and fantasizing about Saddam's support for Al Queda. How could we have taken such huge risks electing Presidents who are so flawed in their underlying integrity and character? I am sad to conclude that Hillary's pattern of ethical lapses reveal a fundamental tragical weakness that simply makes her not electable, no matter how otherwise appealing she may seem to be.
