When Hillary Met Nixon

When Watergate staffer-turned-first lady Hillary Clinton met Richard Nixon for the first time in 1993, she actually praised the nearly impeached ex-president for being "light years" ahead of his time.

No, Mrs. Clinton wasn't so prescient as to have seen Nixon's past in her future. She was referring to the 37th president's never-passed health care plan, which, according to one-time Nixon aide Monica Crowley, Hillary praised as a "blueprint" for her own soon-to-fail plan.

Wednesday's New York Post's Page Six previewed the upcoming issue of Avenue magazine, where Crowley, now a WABC Radio host and Fox News commentator, reveals that the ex-president wrote to Bill Clinton in 1992 to congratulate him on "a very well-run campaign."

After three months waiting for Clinton to reply, Nixon told Crowley: "What do you expect? They're Arkansas dogpatch."

But the very next year, Crowley recalls, the Clintons invited Nixon to the White House.

He accepted, and upon his arrival at the White House he was greeted by Hillary, who blurted out, "Your health care reform legislation in 1973-74 was so good that we are using it as a blueprint for our own package."

Then, without a hint of irony, Hillary added, "Had you survived in office, you would have been light years ahead of your time."

Crowley remembers Nixon later fuming: "Had I survived in office! Maybe I could have if she hadn't been working to impeach me."

I'm sure Mr. Kennedy would not be included under this medicare coverage. It would only be for the little people...

I'm terribly sorry but I have no idea what you are referring to.
Your reply is completely off topic.
I was talking about an actual audio quote by
Ted Kennedy on CNN Radio news, It had nothing to do with Monica Crowley, Hillary Clinton, or even Laura Ingraham for that matter.
So I am sorry but I do not understand who this "She" is at the beginning of your reply.
Thanks anyway.

You mean the one about ted referring to Barack Obama as Osama Bin Laden? That was Great.
for everyone else:His speech was "What can Democrats do to win back the White House" and he said they should ask Osama Bin Laden the stumbled like hell and semi-corrected himself.
I think he meant the first one.
With the Dem's hatred of America they probably would take advice from Osama.

The 'SHE' in post 4 is from my article I added.

Kennedy's health plan to have everyone covered is originally from my article I added.

It was Nixon's plan.

'SHE' is Hillary Clinton who took Nixon's health plan and wanted managed care for all the USA.

Kennedy is now running with it.

Brit Hume played it also as the closing clip, and the group was laughing themselves silly. Brit repeats at 12 EST.

When is Teddy going to open up Hyannis Port so that we can all camp out on the grounds and use the facilities? He believes in cradle to the grave, right? So where's my invitation?

I see that ex-playboy, and MultiMillionaire Sen. Teddy Bare is once again trying to increase the strength of Plantation Politics in America. (Plantation Politics is where everyone goes to "The Man" for all of their needs. "The Man" lives at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, in the big White House.)

Sen. Teddy Bare, who has never worked a day in his life, just loves to buy votes by spending taxpayers' money! Yep, when the dems lose an election it is a sure bet that they will soon try to buy votes by proposing to make the Federal Plantation bigger! This year it was Sen. Teddy Bare who did his duty for his party.

Hmmm - - - maybe one of y'all know, has a democrat EVER proposed ANYTHING that did NOT involve an increase in government spending?

Tell you what, Teddy Boy... we'll extend Medicare to all citizens, but only if YOU pay for it... God knows you don't need Medicare...

Every illegal alien in America gets public benefits as if they had a Medicare card.

You think that is good for the illegals.

Why isn't it good for American citizens too.

Tell me where I am wrong.
