I just cruised over here b'cause I knew the cons would be all over it. They've been a bit quiet lately. If it's any consulation to you trolls, what your administration has been doing is taking us all down. Expect many more scandals and crimes from the repubs to come out. Believe it r not, many of us are NOT HAPPY about that. We're all in it together whether you like it or not.

In Matthew 7: 15-20, Jesus Christ says: "Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly are ravening wolves. By their fruits ye shall know them. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but the corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit. A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit. Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire. Therefore by their fruits ye shall know them."

Clinton 44 involved in some kind of murky finances?

She of the Rose law firm, Whitewater land swindle and turning $1000 to $100,000 in the futures market in less than a year?

This is pretty funny.

A republican senator trying to get some in the potty gets pages and pages of hysterical rantings from the libs, but a thread about Hillary taking dirty contributions from a criminal and the libs avoid it like the plague.

Wonder why that is?

Not so. I am a proud Liberal Democrat!

I am here.

And there is nothing funny about either story.

I think both of them are serious.

Hsu looks like my mother.

I thought she died! I hope it is not the same person!

Hillary looks pasted into the photo.
07:12 PM on 08/31/2007
Yeah. Its typical Arianna. Hsu gave to everybody. Spitzer got $62k. Where's he? Obama got thousands he's returning. Where's he? Bob Kerry put the guy on the New School Board of Trustees. Where's he? And the list goes on. Hillary gets $27g out of her $60-$70 mil, and Arianna makes this a Hillary story. What a pile of crap.

Gee! My eyes are going.

When I read the headline I thought it said,

"fugitive Hairdresser!"

What is damning is that Bill faced a politcal scandal from taking money from the Chinese. If not for Janet Reno, a special prescutor would have been named and an investigation started. Over 20 people were convicted of felony crimes. I don't need to tell you liberals how dishonest an Attorney General can be.

Before we start yelling conspiracy, lets wait and see where the money he gave Democrats came from. He personally gave $600,000 in the last three years and "bundled" millions more. That is a lot of money.

Once again you select an unflattering picture of Hillary. Unfair. Would you like that to happen to you, Ariana?
