Like most people in Mingo County, West Virginia, Leonard Simpson is a lifelong Democrat. But given a choice between Barack Obama and John McCain in November, the 67-year-old retired coalminer would vote Republican.“I heard that Obama is a Muslim and his wife’s an atheist,” said Mr Simpson, drawing on a cigarette outside the fire station in Williamson, a coalmining town of 3,400 people surrounded by lush wooded hillsides.Mr Simpson’s remarks help explain why Mr Obama is trailing Hillary Clinton, his Democratic rival, by 40 percentage points ahead of Tuesday’s primary election in the heavily white and rural state, according to recent opinion polls.

A landslide victory for Mrs Clinton in West Virginia will do little to improve her fading hopes of winning the Democratic nomination, because Mr Obama has an almost insurmountable lead in the overall race.

But Tuesday’s contest is likely to reinforce Mrs Clinton’s argument that she would be the stronger opponent for Mr McCain in November, and raise fresh doubts about whether the US is ready to elect its first black president.

Occupying a swathe of the Appalachian Mountains on the threshold between the Bible Belt and the Rust Belt, West Virginia is a swing state that voted twice for George W. Bush but backed Democrats in six of the eight prior presidential elections.

No Democrat has been elected to the White House without carrying West Virginia since 1916, yet Mr Obama appears to have little chance of winning there in November. Recent opinion polls indicate that Mrs Clinton would narrowly beat Mr McCain in the state but Mr Obama would lose by nearly 20 percentage points.

West Virginia is hostile territory for Mr Obama because it has few of the African-Americans and affluent, college-educated whites who provide his strongest support. The state has the lowest college graduation rate in the US, the second lowest median household income, and one of the highest proportions of white residents, at 96 per cent.

A visit to Mingo County, a Democratic stronghold in the heart of the Appalachian coalfields, reveals the scale of Mr Obama’s challenge – not only in West Virginia but in white, working-class communities across the US. With a gun shop on its main street and churches dotted throughout the town, Williamson is the kind of community evoked by Mr Obama’s controversial comments last month about “bitter” small-town voters who “cling to guns or religion”.

“If he is the nominee, the Democrats have no chance of winning West Virginia,” said Missy Endicott, a 40- year-old school administrator. “He doesn’t understand ordinary Americans.”

West Virginia, ordinary Americans? Is she fucken kidding. Ordinary Americans are not cooking up possum pie for dinner and serving road kill cuisine at the church picnic!

This is from January

“Do you know how difficult it is for women to stand up and say we are the best at anything? The Democratic Party has to know that women are the core, women have to be at the table and women are going to be heard as we continue in these contests until they finally end.”

– Hillary Rodham Clinton

She was speaking to a gathering of 1,500 at the “Generations of Women for Hillary” fundraiser at the Omni Shoreham Hotel in Washington. The women gave her “a thunderous and extended standing ovation.” And why not? She is the women’s candidate. She represents us. She is opening doors for us. In the short span of her historic presidential campaign, Hillary Rodham Clinton has taken a lifetime of venomous misogyny and she has taken it for all of us. If she has not reawakened the long dormant feminist movement, no one can. If she wins, we win. If she loses, we lose:

“I’ve been counted out more than once. But thanks to all of you I’ve come back. When I was counted out in New Hampshire, it was the women of New Hampshire who came back and said, ‘No, she’s not finished yet.’ When I was counted out before Super Tuesday it was women from California to Massachusetts who came and said ‘No, we’re not finished yet.’ When I was counted out before Ohio, before Indiana, we have always come back.” And it’s not so much about my comeback it is about our comeback.

Watching the Hillary movie below I discovered that I was not as familiar with the details of the Clinton FALN pardons and how they benefited Hillary and her Senate Campaign. This clip is from the end of the Hillary movie. If you have not seen the movie and have the time I highly recommend watching. Now if you are a Hillary fan your head is certain to explode.

WASHINGTON (CNN) — Fallout from President Clinton’s controversial pardons of 16 members of a Puerto Rican nationalist group last summer prompted Republicans Tuesday to introduce a measure to reform the pardon process and require input from victims and their families.

At a Capitol Hill news conference, Sen. Orrin Hatch (R-Utah) and Rep. Vito Fossella (R-New York) announced the introduction of a measure requiring the Office of Pardon Attorney in the Justice Department to notify victims or their families of key events in the clemency process and allowing them to voice their views. It would also require law enforcement agencies to provide information on the potential impact from a grant of clemency.

President Clinton was widely criticized after he granted clemency to the FALN members over the objections of law enforcement officials, and after the Justice Department consulted representatives of the FALN prisoners, but not the victims.

Hatch and Fossella were flanked by the widow of one victim and the son of a second victim killed in the 1975 FALN bombing of a New York restaurant.

Justice Department officials say the proposed measure is unconstitutional because it would restrict powers granted exclusively to the president.

The sponsors insist the changes would not interfere with the chief executive’s decision making.

“The president will still be able to disregard the Pardon Attorney’s reports, use another agency, ask anyone in the world for advice, or exercise the ‘pardon power’ without anyone’s counsel, Hatch said.

Hatch said he expects the Justice Department to oppose the measure, but hopes to gain support from Democratic lawmakers.

Fossella rejected the notion the legislation is being introduced to embarrass Hillary Clinton’s bid for a Senate seat from New York.

“As far as Mrs. Clinton is concerned, this has nothing to do in my opinion with her candidacy for the Senate. This has everything to do with the privilege and power vested with the president of the United States that will long survive this campaign for the Senate,” Fossella said.

Joseph Connor, son of Frank Connor who died in the New York bombing, said he hopes something good finally comes from his father’s death.

“We’re hoping that we have made a difference here, and I believe we have through this bill. And maybe it can be a part of his legacy,” Connor said.

Diana Berger Ettenson whose husband was killed in the blast said she too hoped the measure would gain bipartisan support.

“I would urge people on both sides of the aisle to come together to do the right thing, and I would also urge future candidates for the office of president to think very carefully regarding this awesome power that is placed in their hands. This power of clemency is like no other power,” she said.

Clinton’s sympathy for Marxist terrorists

Between 1974 and 1985 the FALN (Puerto Rican Armed Forces of National Liberation) organized 120 terrorist bombings in the United States. Many Americans were killed in those bombings, and many more were crippled. In 1983, another Puerto Rican terrorist group known as the Macheteros, attacked and robbed a Wells Fargo armored car in Connecticut. The Macheteros intended to use the money to finance a terrorist campaign against the United States. Working under the cover of Puerto Rican nationalism and claiming to act on behalf of the “oppressed people of Puerto Rico,” the FALN and the Macheteros are nothing but Communist revolutionaries. Both groups were organized by Fidel Castro’s secret police. The ultimate goal of the FALN and the Macheteros is the creation of an independent Marxist-Leninist dictatorship on the island of Puerto Rico.
While Timothy McVeigh awaits execution and has no chance of receiving a pardon for his role in the Oklahoma City bombing, President Clinton has seen fit to pardon 11 FALN terrorists and five Macheteros who have been serving prison sentences in the United States. Some people are wondering why Clinton did this. It was not a popular move. What pressing political reason did Clinton have for releasing 16 Communist terrorists and revolutionaries from jail?

I’m bored so I’m still cataloging some more Hillary Clinton stuff.
I’ll be very honest, after watching her interview with Bill O’Reilly the other day all it did was piss me off to no end. I lost all respect for O’Reilly because I don’t think he took the interview seriously and spent most of his time flirting with her like a little bitch.

I’ve been reading a lot of Hillary stuff in the last few days I have been reading multiple sources of materials on her mainly to refresh my memory on the specifics of her background.
Although I knew about most of her baggage it strikes you just how fucked up and manipulative she is and I am convinced that no “reasonable” individual that is familiar with her total history of lies and distortion can support her.

Unless a specific newspaper writer, TV political pundit, political crony or prominent political blogger has a specific stake personally and or financially to her obtaining the presidency they can’t possible look someone in the eye and honestly say that they believe Hillary Clinton should be president and do so in good conscious.

Anyone who knows Hillary’s history and would still say to anyone that she has the moral character to lead this nation is either a bold face liar or has major moral judgment issues.

The vast majority of politicians lie through their teeth on a daily basis, but Hillary with the guidance of Bill has made political deception into an art form.

Hillary Clinton Fired For Lies, Unethical Behavior: The now-retired general counsel and chief of staff of the House Judiciary Committee, who supervised Hillary when she worked on the Watergate investigation, says Hillary’s history of lies and unethical behavior goes back farther – and goes much deeper – than anyone realizes.

“…When the investigation was over, Zeifman fired Hillary from the committee staff and refused to give her a letter of recommendation – one of only three people who earned that dubious distinction in Zeifman’s 17-year career. Why? “Because she was a liar,” Zeifman said in an interview last week. “She was an unethical, dishonest lawyer. She conspired to violate the Constitution, the rules of the House, the rules of the committee and the rules of confidentiality.”

Senator Clinton’s Latest Judgement Call - Hire Sandy Berger. He who stole highly classified terrorism documents from the National Archives, destroyed them and lied to investigators, is now an adviser to presidential candidate Hillary Rodham Clinton. This is raising eyebrows even among Clinton’s admirers. “It shows poor judgment and a lack of regard for Berger’s serious misdeeds,” said Jonathan Alder.

… On several occasions, Berger stuffed highly classified documents into his pants and socks before spiriting them out of the Archives building in Washington, according to investigators. On one occasion, upon reaching the street, he hid documents under a construction trailer after checking the windows of the Archives and Justice Department buildings to make sure he was not being watched. Berger came back later and retrieved the documents, taking them home and cutting them up with scissors. Two days later, he was informed by Archive employees that his removal of documents had been detected…

Hillary Caught Lying About Ohio Hospital Denying Healthcare: (New York Times) Over the last five weeks, Hillary Clinton has featured in her speeches the story of a health care horror: an uninsured pregnant woman who lost her baby and died herself after being denied care by an Ohio hospital because she could not come up with a $100 fee. Turns out, she was never refused treatment and that she was, in fact, insured. Also, as reported by ABC News “The hospital, which was never named in Clinton’s speeches, objected this weekend, saying it wasn’t true and demanded that Clinton stop telling it.”

CBS News Expose’s Lies Behind Hillary’s Bosnia trip (Video): Clinton: “I remember landing under sniper fire. There was no greeting ceremony, and we were basically told to run to our cars.” The problem is, that’s not what happened. CBS News accompanied Hillary and Chelsea on that trip and reveals footage from their arrival, and the rather friendly greeting which apparently never happened.

Also: Bosnia poem reader, now 20, stunned by Hillary’s Tall Tale: The Bosnian girl who famously read a poem to Hillary Rodham Clinton during her 1996 visit to the war-torn country is shocked - and her countrymen infuriated - that the former first lady claimed to have dodged sniper fire that day.

Hillary claims she simply misspoke about her Bosnia trip. However, Time magazine recounts four instances where Hillary Clinton misremembers sniper fire upon her arrival in Bosnia. (With some video of her reading her remarks.) How many times does it take for a “misspeak” to become a lie? You decide.

Senator Clinton Found Fibbing on War Support (ABC News) Senator Hillary Clinton tells an Oregon audience that, if you start measuring war opposition in 2005 instead of 2003, then she actually opposed the Iraq war first. ABC News argues this is not only weird, but not actually true.

Poll show majority finds Clinton Untrustworthy (The Washington Post) Lost in the Hillary Rodham Clinton campaign’s aggressive attacks on Barack Obama in recent days is a deep and enduring problem that threatens to undercut any inroads Clinton has made in her struggle to overtake him in the Democratic presidential race: She has lost trust among voters, a majority of whom now view her as dishonest.

Hillary Is “Misleading The American Public” Craig Gregg, former counsel to Bill Clinton and now Obama supporter, sat down for an interview with National Journal. His comments reflected more strongly a memo he had penned last week, suggesting that Hillary’s claims of experience were overblown.

Carl Bernstein: Hillary’s difficult relationship with truth: Distinguished historian and journalist Carl Bernstein outlines compelling evidence that Hillary Clinton has trouble sticking to the truth. In his past book about her, he expressed hope that this might change. But he notes that current facts about her Bosnia narrative provide definitive evidence she still lies about important things.

Hillary Clinton On Southern Working Class Whites In 1995: “Screw ‘Em” After losing congress in the 1994 elections, the then-first lady gave a less than inclusive answer to the question of how to win white southerners back to the Democratic Party. “Screw ‘em,” she told her husband. “You don’t owe them a thing, Bill. They’re doing nothing for you; you don’t have to do anything for them.”

The statement — which author Benjamin Barber witnessed and wrote about in his book, “The Truth of Power: Intellectual Affairs in the Clinton White House” — was prompted by another speaker raising the difficulties of reaching “Reagan Democrats.” It stands in stark contrast to the attitude the New York Democrat has recently taken on the campaign trail, in which she has presented herself as the one candidate who understands the working-class needs.

“I don’t think [Obama] really gets it that people are looking for a president who stands up for you and not looks down on you,” she said this week.

Hillary Has Not Passed All That Legislation She Touts (Boston Globe) Hillary Clinton, who has frequently described herself on the campaign trail as playing a pivotal role in forging a children’s health insurance plan, had little to do with crafting the landmark legislation or ushering it through Congress, according to several lawmakers, staffers, and healthcare advocates involved in the issue

Clinton Gets Caught AGAIN on NAFTA: I want to remind folks who claim Hillary Clinton never praised NAFTA that, in fact, she did praise NAFTA - repeatedly.

Hillary’s List of Lies (including admitted lies) As Bill Clinton’s public-relations mastermind Dick Morris has now documented, Hillary has the equivalent of a doctorate in not telling the truth.

Clinton Remained Silent As Wal-Mart Fought Unions (ABC News) In six years as a member of the Wal-Mart board of directors, between 1986 and 1992, Hillary Clinton remained silent as the world’s largest retailer waged a major campaign against labor unions seeking to represent store workers. Clinton has been endorsed for president by more than a dozen unions.

Clinton Asks Obama Delegates In North Dakota To Switch Sen. Hillary Clinton made a blunt appeal to North Dakota delegates to switch their support to her, despite the fact that Sen. Barack Obama handily defeated her in the state’s caucus in February.

Hillary caught trying to steal Obama’s elected delegates Despite campaign claims that she would never try to steal the legally elected delegates of her opponent, an elected Obama delegate from Texas explains how they received a robo-call from Hillary attempting to convince them to vote for her instead of Obama at the Bexar County delegate convention. Cheat to win. Clinton/Rove 2008.

The New Republic: Hillary Clinton’s Continued Run Is Damaging The Democrats’ Chances: “…Clinton’s path to the nomination, then, involves the following steps: kneecap an eloquent, inspiring, reform-minded young leader who happens to be the first serious African American presidential candidate (meanwhile cementing her own reputation for Nixonian ruthlessness) and then win a contested convention by persuading party elites to override the results at the polls…”

Financial Times: Why Democrats Must Choose Obama: “Hillary is tied to the past. She is the paradigm of business as usual, with the taint of dynastic succession thrown in.”

DNC Official: Clinton Pursuing ‘The Tonya Harding Option’ “Her securing the nomination is certainly possible - but it will require exercising the ‘Tonya Harding option.’” a DNC official said. It implies that Clinton is so set on ensuring that Obama doesn’t get the nomination, not only is she willing to take extra-ruthless steps, but in the end neither she nor Obama win the gold.

Hillary’s Unpaid Campaign Debt: Schools & Small Business Hit the Hardest: (ABC News) The $8.7 million in debt are staggering for their breadth and range. Seemingly every facet of human existence is represented in Clinton’s unpaid bills. The debts date back to last Fall, to states long ago decided. An Orchestra for an October event in New Hampshire. Iowa supermarkets, Texas Portapotties, Atlanta Catering. Clinton has made her plan for universal health care a centerpiece of her agenda. However, Among the debts reported this month by Hillary Clinton’s struggling presidential campaign, the $292,000 in unpaid health insurance premiums for her campaign staff stands out.

A strong Hillary supporter loses faith: (DailyKos) A previously strong Hillary supporter describes the issues that have driven them to question their faith in Hillary.

Another strong Hillary supporter switches: electability “..the only logical explanation I see as to why Obama is performing so much better than Hillary when matched against McCain … is that he is indeed a lot more popular than she is among independents and other swing voters who will decide this election.” and “Electability has always been the top issue for me in whom I support

• She was under sniper fire in Bosnia. (A girl presented her with flowers at the foot of the ramp.)
• She learned in The Wall Street Journal how to make a killing in the futures market. (It didn’t cover the market back then.)

Whoppers She Won’t Confess To

• She didn’t know about the FALN pardons.
• She didn’t know that her brothers were being paid to get pardons that Clinton granted.
• Taking the White House gifts was a clerical error.

Cattle Futures & Conflicts of Interest
In 1979, Hillary Clinton’s trades in cattle futures contracts generated criticism regarding conflict of interest and allegations of disguised bribery. Her initial $1,000 investment generated $100,000 when she stopped trading ten months later. Furthermore, in his book Devil Take The Hindmost : A History Of Financial Speculation, Edward Chancellor noted that Clinton made her money by betting “on the short side at a time when cattle prices doubled.” Marshall Magazine, a publication of the Marshall School of Business, found that “Two-thirds of her trades showed a profit by the end of the day she made them and 80 percent were ultimately profitable.” According to the Washington Post, “[w]hile Clinton’s account was wildly successful to an outsider, it was small compared to what others were making in the cattle futures market in the 1978-79 period.” However, the Post’s comparison was of absolute profits, not necessarily percentage rate of return.

Chicago Mercantile Exchange records indicated that $40,000 of her profits came from larger trades initiated by Clinton’s lawyer and friend, James Blair, an experienced futures trader and outside counsel to Tyson Foods. According to exchange records, Robert L. “Red” Bone, the commodities broker that facilitated the trades on behalf of Ray E. Friedman and Co. (Refco), reportedly because Blair was a good client, allowed Clinton to maintain her positions even though she did not have enough money in her account to cover her activity. For example, she was allowed to order 10 cattle futures contracts, normally a $12,000 investment, in her first commodity trade in 1978 although she had only $1,000 in her account at the time. Refco was fined for violating Chicago Mercantile Exchange rules governing margin trading. Leo Melamed, a former chairman of the Mercantile Exchange who reviewed the records for the White House, said in an interview that Clinton violated no rules in the course of her transactions.

Bill Clinton lied to voters at their rallies and said he had been opposed to the Iraq war from the start.

Hillary Clinton lied and said she had been opposed to NAFTA. After an advocacy group sued to have her First Lady records released, it was revealed that she had supported and advocated for NAFTA.
