HITLARY GETTING THE COLD SHOULDER?
Is the Smartest Woman in the World getting the less-than-royal treatment from her New York constituents?
NewsMax tells us that, as President Bush visited rescue workers at the World Trade Center, firemen and policemen couldn't wait to shake his hand. But then came Hillary--who's been everywhere from Ground Zero to Wall Street, soaking up as much press as she can find.
According to NewsMax's source: "Nobody wanted to shake her hand. They all stood there with their arms folded."
Not only are these rescue workers heroes--they also see Hillary Clinton for what she really is.
SPEAKING OF HITLARY...
...did you see the puff piece NBC's Dateline did on her and Chelsea? Evidently --horror of horrors -- Chelsea was just 12 blocks from the World Trade Center last Tuesday.
Let's see...if a city block is about a tenth of a mile, then Chelsea was about 1.2 miles from Ground Zero. Was that a close call? Hardly.
Actually--maybe it was a close call for Hillary. Had Chelsea been farther away from the destruction, Hillary might not have gotten any face time last night.
I hope so. But, God, what a terrible price to pay to maybe be rid of these vermin -- FINALLY!
And protected by the SS men. What a bunch of hooey! And who gives a rats fart about her and Chelsea? It's always about them isn't it?
I do this, too! I haven't watched network news in a couple of years for this same reason. Sure do wish there were some way to throw something through the TV into the studio, though.
It may be far too early to make these kinds of predictions, but my sense is that Hillary is watching her political aspirations go up in smoke. Notice how utterly mediocre she is when she is asked a question and doesn't have a canned response -- she makes George W. Bush look like the most eloquent public speaker you've ever heard (nothing against Bush's speaking skills, but even he would be the first to admit that it's not his strongest point).
Worst of all (for Bill and Hillary), I think Democrats are starting to realize that because the U.S. is in a position where real leadership is needed, the prospects of Democrats winning important, high-profile political races are, by definition, pretty poor. Health care reform, mentally imbalanced presidents, reparations for slavery, and villages raising people are not all that important or acceptable at a time when the nation needs some serious adult leadership. In fact, people are probably asking themselves why the hell 99% of the things that passed for "important issues" up until 9:00 AM on September 11th were even being discussed in the first place.
Bill Clinton is doing what he does best -- which is, nothing of any real substance. And he's burning with envy at the sight of a real man doing a real job without any need for the support of a bunch of third-rate hacks and a first-rate propaganda machine.
Ask yourself these questions:
Where is the first place I go to get my news?
Am I getting any benefit from FreeRepublic?
Am I learning from FreeRepublic?

WHY New York? Why would underworld Terrorists choose the State "belonging" to Hillary Clinton?
Aren't Bill Clinton and Hillary Clinton the Champions of Terrorism, after releasing TERRORIST's last year??
Aren't Bill and Hillary Clinton the Champions of ANTI-DEMOCRACTIC governments, dining and clicking wine glasses with Chinese Premiers, and kissing the ruddy cheeks of wifes of Palestinian Leaders?
Would not this attack on New York be an attack and embarrassment to Senator Hillary Clinton?
So WHY was she not OUTRAGED! Instead she gave a wimpy speech about "We will rebuild...I can hardly wait...to see Scafolders in the sky..."
Bill Clinton is still a powerful world leader, in office or not, and choosing HIS WIFE's state could be seen as an assault on HIM!
Was Hillary's state a target? Or was this a FAVOR?
