Then there's this...

Oh, Hillary you do have your moments...

Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton invoked the Bible yesterday to criticize a stringent border security measure that, among other things, would make it a federal crime to offer aid to illegal immigrants.

"It is hard to believe that a Republican leadership that is constantly talking about values and about faith would put forth such a mean-spirited piece of legislation," she said of the measure, which was passed by the House of Representatives in December and mirrored a companion Senate bill introduced last week by Senator Bill Frist, a Tennessee Republican and the majority leader.

"It is certainly not in keeping with my understanding of the Scripture because this bill would literally criminalize the Good Samaritan and probably even Jesus himself," she said. "We need to sound the alarm about what is being done in the Congress."

Well, she's got it right about these idiots locking up Jesus. He would be a threat to the politicians, the banking industry, border patrol and well, pretty much everyone else who calls themselves a "christian" but is actually a christofascist. I've always wondered if a returned Jesus would get all Moses on Falwell et al's ample asses...calling down plagues of frogs, locusts and most feared: empty bank accounts.

You go Hillary...you've now just managed to earn yourself a subject line in a whole new RNC fundraising letter from Ken Mehlman: Sen. Clinton hates Jesus.

Jeebus.

Hillary is panderer. I am hoping for Warner or Feingold in 08. Maybe Gore. Hillary stands for nothing. She voted for this war, and has caved on every major issue thus far.

I'd love to see Feingold in 08 myself. That aside , Hillary is as much a panderer as Bush is in alot of ways. Although she does stand for more than Bush promised.

as for voting for the war - most did after being presented with the information that bush gave them and the line delivered that he would use force as a last resort ( yet that's what he jumped too) Caving in to every issue? She more leans towards a moderate voice than a 180 which has alot of dems upset.

She's done right by New Yorkers. So she can't be all bad. Maybe a strong woman makes you angry and insecure.

Zombies of Hate
It is unbelievable that while we spend billions of dollars to prop up a theocratic and corrupt goverment thousands of miles away in Iraq (as an excuse to occupy the Middle East) that right now here in our own back yard human skeletons lay in the desert unfound as our illustrious politicians get their campaign moneys from the very corporations that caused these skeletons to be there in the first place.

I blame the illegal (but not immoral)immigrants no more for coming to this great nation than I would blame first grade children for becoming addicted to Heroin that a drug dealer (who stands across the street from their school)methodically sells to them every day.
The Republicans and some Democrats who are for this present immigration bill have become that drug dealer while they themselves have also become addicted to the money from corporations and the hate that can get them their votes.

They may argue from a legal standpoint, that they are only for enforcing the rule of law but they are not arguing from a moral one. They are acting immorally. And, Just as Martin Luther King broke "the law of men" to uphold "the much higher law of humanity for Mankind"
These poor illegal immigrants break "the law" but do not break the laws of humanity. Everyday, that this immigration problem is held up and not solved while people are dying in the desert our leaders must know that indirectly they are violating the laws of humanity.

And now, we see, most despicably some politicians such as John Shadegg and Jon Kyl pimping their drug of hate, fomenting the building anger between Anglo and Hispanic peoples in our beautiful country. Will it bother them once the race riots start and the killing begins? I pray to the Almighty that it does because if race riots and killings start then the evil Genie will be out of the bottle and who knows when and if it will ever be able to be put back in.

Like the Serbian, Croatian and African leaders of the last decade who used hate to begin their murderous ethnic cleansing some of our political leaders will become Nationalist leaders, who while provoking anger will have their egos stoked as they are propped up by the very people that they evinced that anger within, the very people that they turned into Zombies of hate.

Don't go after these immigrant children of GOD who have only come to our great country with no malice in their hearts and only to feed their families and find a better life. Go after the politicians who like drug dealers are addicting some of our fellow Americans to the wonderful sensation of hate in order to get themselves more votes.

Remember we can have a blood bath and a witch hunt in trying to extract these 11 million illegal (but not immoral) immigrants and put on a shameful show on for the world (as we lecture other countries about human rights)or we can show the world that we Americans will solve this serious immigration problem on our own continent with the humanity and magnanimity that our forefathers would be proud of.

America was the humane and civilized nation that could solve serious problems such as this immigration dilemma and we shall prove that we still are that great nation, that "great experiment" that can solve these dilemmas of mankind.
Fortunately, we the people of America are still humane and civilized as a nation because we are America.

We must show the world that Bush and his Neo-Cons no longer speak for us, for they are trying to change America with their race baiting by appealing to the hate in our hearts, not only is this unscrupulous and immoral it is UNAMERICAN.

We shall retake our nation one mind, one heart at a time and give it back to the principles that were outlined in the Declaration of Independence. That all men are created equal and that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights.

Why didn't you hear about that swarthy middle-easterner that a CIA contractor-type managed to kill in what they so charmingly call a "palestinian hanging": suffocated when his chest muscles gave out, arms outstretched holding his weight. Very painful, and it takes a long, long time to die.

It's a bloodless crucifixion.

Way to go, christofascists. Your moral authority and inherent godliness is now on display as an example to the whole world.

Michele- Name an important issue that is unpopular where Hillary has shaken the tree. She still supports the war. She has not backed Murtha. She voted for it. (Almost half the Dem Senators did not,and over half the Dems in the house, did not). In fact, Byrd attempted to filibuster the Use of Force on Iraq Resolution. She has not come out in favor of Censure, even though the Administration is clearly breaking the law. She voted for the Patriot act, both times, without blinking an eye.
You know,little things, like supporting and defending our Constitution... on those issues, she has been a wash.
Playing the sex card is not going to work. You have to have facts that back up what you are saying. Hinting that I may be a sexist because I think a politician (who happens to be a woman) is weak shows more about your attitude toward such things than mine. If Hillary is so great, what has she done? The most important issue facing this nation is the war in Iraq.
