Hillary Clinton - stall ball

[chance1]

Hmm. Perhaps it's a conspiracy to keep Hillary off the Sunday programs. Ya think? You know, give her any exposure and she risks being elected. Can't have a woman in the WH. We'd have to amend the Constitution first. Just thinking aloud.

she could go on any show she wants

all the mods (not u) would love to have her - and I suspect they would treat her well - especially George Stephanopolous - Tim would not be as easy

I for one would love to hear her talk for 1/2 hour or so - on the whole litany of today's issues - not sure why anyone wouldn't think this would be a good thing - find out more about her

 

[chance1]

Maybe, chance, Hillary realized that the election isn't this year, but next year, and not just next year, but LATE next year. No one outside of those that really need a semblance of a life really cares about what lies and bullshit politicians have to say this early in the game. And what game? It hasn't even started. You know, she's a senator, right? It might be a good idea on her focusing on her current duties as opposed to rushing around the country and the news shows (a large number of people watch that shit on Sunday mornings?) talking about her vision for what she'd like to do in 2009. Just a recap, this is 2007... May 2007. Election is in 2008... November 2008. Her duties as president would not begin until 2009... January 2009. Stop living in the future; there's a world happening right now, you know? For serious.

r u kidding?

the guests on Sunday AM News programs are liars and bullshitters?

the idea is to get to know them - wouldn't u like to learn more about Hillary?

duties as Senator? she's hopping around the country on jets campaigning - be real

can't imagine anything but she is hesitant - cause she's polling ahead

"stall ball"

 

[chance1]

One last thought ..............

her website has printed shit that for all we know has been written by her people - perhaps she hasn't even read it

when she is face to face with Tim Russert (example), she would need to have her wits about her - to truly believe what she is saying - to not be scripted

I for one would love to see it - not cause I wanna knock her - I want to see it

I could see voting for her in 2008

But I gotta know more

sorry to drone on guys but it's amazing to me that u think it's ok for your top dog to not be out there

As you may recall, Hillary gave a series of interviews after she announced the formation of her exploratory committee.

Since you are just dying to see her in a sit-down interview, here's one to quench your thirst:

Part 1 of 3:


Part 2 of 3:

[White Eagle]

Thank you lance. Even these interviews were back at the State of the Union, I doubt her views have changed that much. I knew back then what her views were and I can't see being on Sun morn TV would add much more.
If there are new views I'm sure the word will get out.

 

[chance1]

Yeah - no need to debate the issues

Debate is so ....................................

illuminating?

 

[chance1]

Oh, see, I had no idea. If we want actual political debate in this country, as opposed to bobbleheads with talking points, we need to tune in on Sunday mornings! Are these real debates, like has Obama been squaring off against Giuliani? My, that explains why the other six days seem so empty and almost mind-numbingly unbelievable; they save it all for the traditional day of worship!

I guess her failure to show up is just an obvious excuse, among many I'm sure, for you not to cast your vote for her. I'm certain she's not lost anything there.

Call me crazy

I like to see Presidential wannabes sitting with Tim Russert on Meet The Press

He's armed with instances where the individual has perhaps not been consistent on a position - they need to explain themselves to the American public on an issue that is usually pretty critical

It is an opportunity for us to see them deal with adversity - and either explain intelligently or struggle to deal

I like those moments

Those moments matter

To me anyway

 

[chance1]

Ok, 'crazy', you can call me insane, but I'd rather see the current president be held accountable for what he has done instead of worrying about what hopeful (or hopeless) wannabes have to say about a position that can flutter in the wind for all that matters now. The current president, and current other elected officials are the ONLY people in government I know that *NEEDS* to explain themselves on ACTUAL issues that ARE REALLY critical. An opportunity, if you will, to see them deal with responsibility - and either explain intelligently or reveal themselves to be the useless charlatans that deserve to be removed from office.

I like those moments; those moments actually matter... to democracy anyway.

I guess I must've detoured to the Bush sucks part of the thread ............

No - you did

And here's a more recent interview she did on May 11th:

Part 1 of 2:


Part 2 of 2:

 

[lancelva]

Not every interview she's done is on YouTube (we don't post most because of copyright issues), but here is another I came across, this one was the Bloomberg News interview on March 15, 2007:

 

[chance1]

It's called perspective; and having a perspective that things that matter are those that shape the now. You seem less concerned with reality than you are for a future that may never exist, with a person who may or may not ever be president years from now. I am more concerned about our actual president now being held accountable. I also said other elected officials too, but the presidency is what is being discussed here---that is, your alleged concern about a "presidential 'wannabe'". I've made my point I don't know how many times, so I'm guessing you've gotten it and haven't a single substantial reply since you went down this really pathetic, typical thing you do.

From post #68, the one to which you posted that pathetic, typical quoted text above, I said, "The current president, and current other elected officials are the ONLY people in government I know that *NEEDS* to explain themselves on ACTUAL issues that ARE REALLY critical. An opportunity, if you will, to see them deal with responsibility - and either explain intelligently or reveal themselves to be the useless charlatans that deserve to be removed from office.

Pwned.

Perspective?

I think not

it's called diversion

any topic that isn't "Bush sucks" becomes "Bush sucks"

BOOOOORING

 

[chance1]

You are so far the only one to say in this thread "Bush sucks"... well until now... and you had said it like two or three times now. Worrying about someone for a job she's no where close to getting while the government continues churning along, doing whatever damage ti pleases---that, chance, is a diversion.

yeah yeah

bringing up the current President when the thread is about Hillary

that's Bush sucks

no matter how u slice it ICO7

the 80 thinks every issue is about Bush

read again - please

 

[White Eagle]

lancelva
Thank you. Those are 2 very impressive interviews. I like Hillary and think it is time for a woman president. It's scary how the voters of this country feel about that, but if she gets the nomination I will Have to vote for her, and pray a lot that it goes well. We cannot have any more Republicans, especially those running, in the WH.
I feel the same about Obama. I think it is time for a Black to be Pres. But it is still how the bigots will vote. And if he gets the nomination I will vote for him.



Oh yeah, Bush sucks.

 

[chance1]

Hillary talking about mortages - rates - foreclosures - WOW - pretty impressive - lots of details and clarity.

She's a smart lady on this financial issue

Hmmm

She SHOULD go on Sunday AM News Shows

Looks like she has nothing to hide - if she's this smart, it will come across and IMPROVE her standing

what's up?

She already has the vote of intelligent people. Its people like you she's working on now, the ones who think Bush is a genius.

ur like gum on my shoe

ur like gum on my shoe

The way to get gum off shoes is to put them in the freezer for about an hour. It hardens and you can peel it right off. ***IMPORTANT NOTE *** Make sure to remove your shoes and put them in by themselves.... don't stand in the freezer for an hour, its dangerous!

 

[chance1]

I'm not exactly sure why you ask me to read again; it's quite easy to take in the rather shallow depth of your bullet-point text messages. At least you said please. I also think you are just in denial and you know that Bush sucks, however, my point hasn't changed that I'm more interested in what people currently in office are doing or plan to do as opposed to your obsession over make-believe future land. Of course, this may just be another manifestation of your denial---your obsession over a future when Bush is no longer president. It fills you with such desire that you must agonizingly analyze the nuances of what this future utopia, a world without Dubya, could be. Oh, praise Hillary Clinton, for she may well be the future that shall set you free!

sorry IC

really tired of your putdowns

and your analysis of me is equally lame

talk to the 80

 

[lancelva]

***IMPORTANT NOTE *** Make sure to remove your shoes and put them in by themselves.... don't stand in the freezer for an hour, its dangerous!

Shhhhh---you weren't supposed to tell him that part.



Disclaimer: This is only a joke; I do not wish harm on anyone, even if they belong to the other party.

 

[chance1]

"Equally lame"? Seems pretty spot on, considering you are obsessed over everyone claiming 'Bush sucks', as if you are running from some truth. Project much? That "80" thing is pretty "equally lame"---can you cite where you actually proved that statistic?

obsessed?

I think when the 80 take every thread that isn't titled "Bush sucks" and make it "Bush sucks" - well that's obsessed

True or False - "Bush sucks" - does NOTHING for you and the 80 - gives u a hard-on as if ...........

The 80 thing is "spot on" - sorry if the truth hurts

PS - still plenty of time tonight to take a thread about someone other than Bush and make it about Bush

go for it

it's what u (and the 80) do
