I like hillarys plantation comment about as much as Mayor Nagin of N.O. saying his city should remain 60% black. Can you imagine a white mayor saying his city shoud stay 60% white????!?!?!?

Hillary Clinton Blasts GOP 'Plantation' NEW YORK -- Sounding a little like a preacher, a fired-up Sen. Hillary Clinton lambasted the Bush administration and the Republican-controlled Congress during a Martin Luther King Jr. Day event, predicting the presidency "will go down in history as one of the worst" and saying the House of Representatives is run like a "plantation" where dissenting voices are squelched. "When you look at the way the House of Representatives has been run, it has been run like a plantation, and you know what I'm talking about," Clinton, D-N.Y., told the crowd at the Canaan Baptist Church of Christ in Harlem. "It has been run in a way so that nobody with a contrary view has had a chance to present legislation, to make an argument, to be heard." Speaking to a group of Hurricane Katrina evacuees in the audience, Clinton offered an apology "on behalf of a government that left you behind, that turned its back on you." Her remarks were met with thunderous applause. "We have a culture of corruption, we have cronyism, we have incompetence," she said. "I predict to you that this administration will go down in history as one of the worst that has ever governed our country." Republican National Committee spokeswoman Tracey Schmitt, reached by telephone, responded to Clinton's remarks by saying, "On a day when Americans are focused on the legacy of Martin Luther King, Hillary Clinton is focused on the legacy of Hillary Clinton." A spokeswoman for the White House declined to comment and referred questions to the RNC. The Rev. Al Sharpton, who organized the Monday event, said Clinton's comments were important to her primarily black audience. "It was significant to us that she did it at our forum on Martin Luther King Day and in many ways said what a lot of us have been saying a long time about the Bush administration," Sharpton said. Clinton was joined at the event by a host of elected officials and some others looking to be elected officials. Other speakers included Democratic gubernatorial candidate Eliot Spitzer and the man considering a run against him in the primary, Nassau County Executive Tom Suozzi. Republican state attorney general candidate Jeanine Pirro attended, as did Democratic New York Sen. Charles Schumer, Republican Mayor Michael Bloomberg and a number of City Council members. Actor and activist Harry Belafonte made a late, but extremely well-received, entrance. Bloomberg, who spoke and left before Clinton's remarks, noted that this year marks the 20th anniversary of the King holiday and said it was vital that King's message remain alive. "We must not let the real man or his message recede into history," Bloomberg said. "Sadly, that's something that often happens, and our heroes and the fathers of our nation have to be people that we constantly tell our children about so they understand the sacrifices that were made." © 2006 Associated Press.

I'm realizing one can't understand these two threads but in light of each other. Therefore I hope you folks don't mind my merging them. Very valid comments that I hope folks understand instead of getting confused over.

Nagin will be a has been very soon. He is utterly incompetent and all he could do was blame others for his complete incompetence. If he's in charge, he's to fault for all the chizzit that went down in NO during the hurricane. And what can you say about billary, except &&%#(@&#%^!%%#&#(@0.

Are you trying to say the House of Reperesentatives HASN'T "been run in a way so that nobody with a contrary view has had a chance to present legislation, to make an argument, to be heard?" In the last few years, the Republican House leadership has locked Democrats and "disloyal" Republicans out of important bill-writing or discussion sessions, brought them to the House Floor on short notice, banned amendments, demanded immediate votes without allowing anyone time to read the bills, and held the votes open for extraordinary lengths of time until they managed to twist enough arms and change enough votes to ensure passage. Some of you people may not like the lady's choice of words (mainly because you don't like her), but what she said was completely true. |

Hey, got the complete quote about the "chocolate city" thing... Straight from Willy Wonka: "Surely God is mad at America. He sent us hurricane after hurricane after hurricane, and it's destroyed and put stress on this country. Surely he doesn't approve of us being in Iraq under false pretenses... It's time for us to come together. It's time for us to rebuild New Orleans---the one that should be a chocolate New Orleans. This city will be a majority-African American city. It's the way God wants it to be. You can't have New Orleans no [sic] other way. It wouldn't be New Orleans." ---New Orleans Mayor Ray Nagin, not race-baiting, just in need of a few more votes... got this quote from the patriot paper

troy- I think thats part of being the majority party in congress. When the dems. are in control, they have and will do the same thing. Its just one of the consequences of loosing seats after election, you dont always get what you want.

Its crunch time people , the President is doing what he needs to do to keep the disloyal , anti-American portion of this country on its toes. This country sits at the brink of total chaos. Here is my top ten problems facing America in the 21 century. 1) China , need to put a foot in their ssa ! 2) Illegal Aliens , Show them the door and slam it on their ssa on the way out. 3) Terrorism , someday a Nuke is going to be lit off here regardless how much money we throw at the problem. Millions will be dead. 4) High Taxes, stiffle the ability of our people to keep some of the hard earned xtras our hard work brings. 5) 2 party system. Why not 5 or 10 . Democrats are never happy . Republicans never can make the Dems happy. Sounds to me that Democrats are Bi-polar and need to be Institutionalized. 6) Criminals 2,000,000 + in prison. If you comit a capitol crime you die ! Drug offenses should be treated, with community service (need to build housing)with the threat of hard time in the background. 7) Need to keep Russia as close ally. If Russia is our buddy then a United Europe is a non threat. As is China , N Korea ,kept in check and the Middle East. 8) Out sourcing jobs. Punish if not cease any businesses started in America and jobs being sent outside the USA . My God who thinks this is a great idea? 9) Tax Religeon. 10) Remember what our forefather gave up so we can watch TV, listen to knuckleheads like Clinton and get fat on processed foods . I know I rant but if I had too even though I am 40 , I would fight and die for this country tomorrow then see this country dissapear from the world stage. |
