Does she think our short term memory is THAT bad?!!?

Proving once again that she and other Libs like her will say whatever is popular, Hilary Clinton spoke in Iowa this weekend, denouncing her role in the Iraq War vote of 2002. She said what she signed up for(and voted for) was not what she had originally thought. This sounds too reminiscent of John Kerry's infamous "I voted for the war before I voted against it" debacle. She was trashing the Commander and Chief once again for being solely responsible for the war. As if a majority congress vote was not needed to send troops in. FLASHBACK 2002: Hilary Clinton's presentation to the Code Pink female anti-war group. She said she had to disagree with their stance because she believed that Saddam Hussein would not stop his actions and that he deserved to be removed from power. She had said in 2002, that she had done her own research on Iraq and listened to people's opinions that she fully trusted before making her decision. She said those opinions were made outside of party lines, therefore had the integrity of truth behind it. Hillary cannot escape her vote for the war, her continued( until recently) support of the fact that we cannot pull out now, until the Iraqi people/government is ready to take full control of the peace. This is a BIG problem for the 2008 candidate since many of her Democratic competitors have been against the War much longer, ie, shortly after they voted for it in 2003. She stated this weekend that she was duped by President Bush and his administrations' agenda, into voting for this war. SOMEBODY PLEASE tell me how the "Smartest Woman in the World" could possibly be duped by what many consider an inferior intellect in the White House? She had the same information that Bush and all the Senate/House members had. That was very similar to our so called "allies" intelligence of Germany, France and Russia, claiming that Saddam had WMD. They were not found. Obviously. However, she has stated time and again since 2002 that she supported the war and wanted to see it thru to victory. Now here she is running for president and she is hoping the American people do not remember a thing about the past. This is not the first time a liberal has done a complete 180 based on what an opinion pole has showed. This is not an untried tactic, except that when it is done, you cannot have 100 different sound bites and print clips stating the EXACT OPPOSITE of what you are saying today!! Show the American people some respect for being somewhat intelligent. Granted we are not as smart as Hilary Clinton, but then again, we weren't duped by George W Bush. We supported this cause from day 1.

The Democratic party / The Socialist party...Can you tell them apart? (guest posting)

The train is still rollin'

The Rams of Virginia Commonwealth just won another HUGE road game at Drexel today. This brings them to 18-3 overall and undefeated in the CAA conference. This was the second big road victory for the rams this week. They took the game in Northern Virginia on Wednesday vs last year's Cinderella Story, George Mason. Heading back home to the friendly confines of the Siegel Center for an inter conference game, VCU will entertain the Tribe of William and Mary on Monday nite. As mentioned in the earlier post, gotta give the praise to the Mid Majors out there. Come tourney time, count the number of games lost by the "Big" conferences 4-6 seeds at the hands of the smaller school. Bet.

Some Respect for the Mid Majors Please!!

Proving once again that good teams from smaller conferences deserve as much a chance at the March Madness Glory as any team, especially the pathetic #7's and 8's from the "Big" conferences, the V.C.U. Rams beat league rivals O.D.U. Monarchs 80-75 at home last night. (nice run on sentence, huh?)This brings their record to 16-3. They are undefeated in the C.A.A. conference and undefeated on the road(2 losses on neutral floors, 1 loss at home). Even if the Rams do not finish the season strong, teams like this still deserve a shot at the Big Dance, even if they do not win their conference tournament. After George Mason stunned the world last year with a final four appearance, Hofstra went deep into the N.I.T, and neither won their conference tournament, mid major conferences deserve every one's respect. I have stopped even blinking an eye when a Wake Forest falls in the first round of the NCAA tourney, when they were over ranked at a 4 seed, yet finished 5th in the ACC. And usually the team beating the also rans of the big conferences are the teams from the mid majors. For all that is holy and sacred to NCAA basketball, please take a closer look at the smaller schools when it come time for the big selection.

Are they @$%#& serious???

Some genius on Capital Hill has submitted a bill that would allow ILLEGAL ALIENS the opportunity to collect social security after working only 18 months!!!! That means that not only are you giving these criminals the ability to collect from our dangerously low and soon to be completely drained coffers of social security, but they can do this in 8.5 years less than the average citizen can collect social security. You and I(real American citizens who pay taxes and support the economy of our great nation) have to work at least 10 years before we can start collecting S.S. That would mean that these aliens would have to break the laws several more times just to collect their checks. They would need to come up with fake IDs, as well as fake social security numbers to collect. Well ain't that nice. We are not only rewarding them for working in our country illegally, but we are making them even more criminal to collect their rewards. Our country is fucking idiotic at times. I cannot believe someone that was voted into office actually thinks this is a good idea. Before long, the reasons that people are fleeing Mexico will be in our own back yards and we will have acted too late. Get these fucks out of our country and enact measures to keep their brethren out as well. Come thru the front door and I will welcome you with open arms. A self proclaimed intellect liberal once said, when our forefathers got to this country, they were all illegal aliens as well. Yeah, and how did THAT work out for the native Americans then?!!?
