Hillary Win???

[All American Kid]

haha yeah i didn't really realize my name could be misconstrued until after I already signed up. I'm just hokie that enjoys hunting.

I guess what kills me is that with this tuition increase I did not get anymore federal loans (yes loans not handouts) while other minorities did. I'm paying my own way to college and tution hikes kinda hurt. I thought i'd have enough money to live off my summer jobs, but when prices go up i lose study time b/c i have to work. Which would you chose a car designed by an engineer that spent spare time mastering his field or a car designed by an engineer that had to spend his extra time working in food service b/c tuition rose?

Alcohol and tobacco purchases need to be taxed more heavily instead of education. They are luxuries that people are gonna buy anyway (b/c they're addicted).

I totally agree. I always thought of higher education as more of an investment more than anything. If the state pays more in education they will definatally get their money back in revenue in taxing a higher wage. Not to mention the statistics that show low crime rate with college grads.

Anyhow, I failed to clarify my bigger point on my prevoius post as how it is pertinent to this thread. your right:


uhoh, Warner can't run for the Democrats. He's a wealthy business owner that PRIVATELY made all his money and used his BUSINESS prescence to get political standing and into public office. He's not eligible.

He is probally one of the last capitalist liberals left. He didn't make his money by realestate scams or marrying a rich woman (there is a name for that isn't it). Therefore, the Dems would never nominate this fellow even if he did make good Govenor which made some hard decisions that worked with a republican legislative branch. He in my opinion is more fit to be prez than the Hildabeast but Dems wouldn't see that.

Just for the record. As I respect him and give him credit due, I think he would lead the country down the wrong way with alot of his views. --AAK

Why Rummy in '08

1) We could finally attack Canada. ( a bunch of p*ssies already, thinking their so bad with there ford trucks with shotguns on top, and police ride ponies and are afraid to carry guns)

2) Rummy rules with power and not money. ( The way it should be)

3) Will continue to slaughter the animals that worship Islam and would allow pissing on that crappy book called the Koran. (It is a romantic dream)

4) A your with us or against us attidude.

5) Will allow slaughtering of hippies. (Always a big favorite of mine.)

6) Bomb more countries then I can count

I say impeach Bush let's get Rummy into office now


1. Why?

3. Sounds more like a wet dream.

4. Build skools not boms!

5. Yay for slaughter of innocents! That's the American way!

I'm not one to read too much in a poll, but they do at the least offer some measures on the probabilities of a canidate becoming elected. I know this is only 2005 but all signs are showing that Hillary is going to be a serious threat. Consider the latest from the Gallup organization. http://gallup.com/poll/content/?ci=16651 --AAK

I don't see why you are all worried about Hillary. By the time she is nominated, she may have dug herself in a hole. Not only that, by that time, the Republicans will have put out everything she ever said and did, and how she voted as a Senator. There is so much out there that is bad about her. It will all come out. I don't think she can win.

Madame Hillary By R. Emmett Tyrrell with Mark Davis
Excellent, excellent book. I learned plenty that I didn't know and that Hillary wouldn't want people to know. I agree with bumblebee. Not a chance that she'll get elected. However there would be one (just one) positive side to her election: Bill would be the first lady.

I would add to that list the elimination of any state and local laws that are in direct violation of the the Bill of Rights with reagard to the 2nd ammendment.
I would also add that all schools be required to eliminate all forced diversity and multicultural indoctrination. Schools would be required to teach academics and academics alone.
-Bring back the firing squad or public hanging for crimes of extreme violence- especially crimes against the very young or the elderly
-eliminate all "hate crimes" legislation
-prayer in school would be allowed but of course optional
-Christmas should once again be able to be celebrated in school and public venues
- politcal correctness should be made illegal
- Ted Kennedy should be formally charged for the death of Mary jo Kopeckne
-traitorous actions and sedition would once again be chargebale offenses
-elimination of the IRS -replaced with flat tax, national sales tax or something equivalent

Pretty much took the words out of my mouth.

[LiberalsAreBabyKillers!]

I agree with you chief, but I think we need to do even more!

[LiberalsAreBabyKillers!]

Hell, I agree with all of ya! (except for the liberals)

Hillary is not going to be a problem in '08, but New York attorney general Eliot Spitzer is the new democrat hot boy. Eliot Spitzer is more well liked in New York and in the DNC.

I wanted to put out Condi's qualifications, but there was so much, I didn't know where to begin. I just asked the members to look her up on the Internet.
In case some don't know, she also speaks fluent Russian.
Thank you IHL for putting this out.

Question: If Hillary wins in '08 and Clinton is the head of the UN, what do you think the Republicans/conservatives will do?

Question: If Hillary wins in '08 and Clinton is the head of the UN, what do you think the Republicans/conservatives will do?The international community won't accept it. And for that matter, neither will Americans. One or the other, but not both.

Bill Clinton can not take over as Secretary General of the U.N. due to the fact that the trial of Slobodan Milosevic has not ended. In addition to that Eastern European Nations who have a lot of stroke , to say, in the voting will not give up their values, virtues, and morals to elect a pathological liar into the head seat of the U.N.

Bill Clinton was and is along with his wife and everyone that supported him, the downfall of American society. Why would we want him to be the down fall of the international community?
