Yeah, when you hit these lying, carpetbagger socialists with the truth -— they really squeal like the pigs they are. Come on Osama Obama —— keep the truth after Hitlery -— soon it will be McVain’s turn on Osama. He had better pick up the pace.

Why do I get the feeling that the next President will be the candidate with the fewest scandals???

Is it too late to bring back Mr. ‘Sqeaky Clean’..... Mitt?

Obama didn’t lie in his mailings as far as I can tell. Hildy has consistently said there will be penalties and “enforcement mechanisms” in her socialized medicine plan to keep people from privately paying. In one interview I personally heard, she even said the penalty might include garnishment of wages.

Someone needs to find the video and do a side by side!

If we’re re-opening the nominations, I’d really prefer a conservative.

Many forget that Rush Limbaugh was all in support of NAFTA too, and said Clinton made the right decision.

Interesting.

NAFTA is not popular in Ohio...cost that State many blue-collar jobs. Obama's circular merely quotes a 2006 'Newsday' article that summarizes her view as being that NAFTA was a "boon" to the economy. She's livid that Obama's circular doesn't make it clear that SHE is not being quoted, the 'Newsday' article is being quoted.

This is so transparently an ACT, trying to hide her true views about NAFTA from the Ohio voters. Good grief, NAFTA and the Family Medical Leave Act of 1992 are about the ONLY 2 examples imaginable of any accomplishments of the Clintonian dual-Presidency!

J. Lo's movie 'Border Town' dramatizes some of the NAFTA afterbirth. Factories where almost all workers are Mexican women, working long hours for practically peanuts, thousands of whom have been raped & murdered trying to get home from the factories, at night, after their shift ends...

The two videos (Hillary’s rant vs. Barry’s measured and calm response) should be shown side-by-side. Pointing out the facts and using the Clinton’s own words are considered attacks and require a purple-rage retort.

People in Ohio were losing manufacturing jobs a LONG TIME before NAFTA ever came around... high taxes and greedy unions are the problem, not a mushy free-trade agreement.

I know that hurts to hear, but.. it’s the truth. In the 1970’s, the street of Houston were FILLED with “rust-belt transplants”.

The mailing reportedly says that Hillary will force families to buy health insurance even if they can’t afford it.

I do think that’s false. IIRC, Hillary intends to make you and me pay the tab for people who can’t afford insurance.

Right, I am pro free trade, but Clinton does not get to run on “record” and “experience” and then claim to have been against important things done during the Clinton 1990s. One way or the other, but not both.

More importantly it is very very important that the Dim nominee will be the guy who sent out mailers against health care mandates.

You mean like the medicaid deduction on my paycheck every week? Face it, we’re a socialist country already.
