	<description>I believe in the free speech that liberals used to believe in, the economic freedom that conservatives used to believe in, and the personal freedom that America used to believe in.</description>

		<description>Barack better be ready for a good tongue lashing tonight.  It&#039;s Hail Mary time in the Clinton campaign.

Hillary&#039;s vaunted &quot;experience&quot;, athy (forgot the K?), has given us a yes vote on the Iraq War and a yes vote on Kyl-Lieberman.  That&#039;s experience we can believe in?  Don&#039;t expect many people to get riled up about Z. Brzezinski.

Mostly, Clinton&#039;s votes have been cast with her political viability as the primary consideration.  That&#039;s probably true of most politicians, but true nonetheless.</description>

		<description>We still know so little about Barrack Obama&#039;s foreign policy experience. How can people form opinions without this information?
Can anyone tell me what is Barrack Obama’s experience on foreign policy?

I read that last summer, Zbigniew Brzezinski (ZB)  endorsed Obama for president see

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/08/24/AR2007082402127.html

Lastyear,(ZB) was interviewed in  http://www.counterpunch.org/brzezinski.html

ZB was one of main people responsible for convincing the US govt to arm the mujaheddin.

ZB was blind-sided by the rise of the Islamic fundamentalist groups. During the 1960’s and 1970’s he (ZB) was so focused on fighting the evil Russian empire that he completely ignored the existence of radical Islamic fundamentalism. He gave poor advice to President Carter. The ramifications of his (ZB)being so blind-sided helped to nurture the evolution and expansion of Osama Bin Ladin’s (and others) terrorist groups. In 1998, Brzezinski was interviewed by the French newspaper Nouvel Observateur on the topic of Afghanistan. Here is a link to excerpts from that interview-

http://www.counterpunch.org/brzezinski.html

ZB revealed that CIA support for the mujaheddin had started before the 1979 Soviet invasion. Its purpose was to instigate a Soviet invasion, leading the Soviet Union into a Vietnam-War like conflict.  Brzezinski viewed the end of the Soviet empire as worth the cost of strengthening militant Islamic groups. 

Last summer, ZB endorsed Obama for president.

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/08/24/AR2007082402127.html

What on earth was Obama thinking when he chose ZB as one of his foreign policy advisors??? http://www.nysun.com/article/71123  

Why hasn’t any journalist questioned Sen. Obama about his choice of ZB as one of his top foreign policy advisors?</description>

		<description>We don&#039;t need a polarizing figure like Clinton at this time.  I lived through that legacy and it is done. The power hungry devisiveness of a politician touting &quot;experience&quot; lacks passion. She predicts a “battle” with Republicans, and touts her accomplishments to this mindset as a virtue. She forgets they too are Americans. Our spirits would suffer. 
  
The nation, and the troubling world needs a smart, genuine, person with drive and energy. A thoughtful leader, a healer, and a great thinker combined. It is preposterous to suggest that anyone has the experience which makes them qualified to hold the office of the President of the United States of America. It’s not about experience.  

Obama can transend us. He has that special magnetism that only comes along every 40 years.  This country suffers today from a unique history. The blacks in this country have a heritage that is unlike other immigrants who came to America to pursue the American dream. The majority of Blacks in America are descendents from slaves. As a nation, we all suffer from this legacy. 

We could have a civil war that freed the slaves. But it did not create a reality in the minds. We could have a civil rights movement that changed the laws and after 40 years, a society that has progressed towards that original proclamation. But it will take a remarkable human being who can transend a nation and free the souls. 

There are many blacks in this country that live in a reality that they are disenfranchised. This hopelessness is costly to our society. It packs our prisons. This is an important time in history for the right person to take the presidency to heights we have not seen since Lincoln. If he can transcend race, it will bring us all aboard the engine of prosperity as a united nation. It will jumpstart our economy, make us more productive, make us stronger. No key thing is more important to get our house in order now than to unite us as a people. 

There is a tide sweeping the country and it is feeling like our destiny. It is Barack Obama.</description>

		<description>I think WE have finally found Hillary&#039;s voice. It is shrill. She is in attack mode and we are to mistakenly interpret that as leadership and strength. The Clinton machine attacks anyone who does not go along with them. 

And by the way, Bill Clinton created NAFTA. Obama is absolutely right to point out that Hillary has supported and voted in favor of NAFTA and now she gives repeated speeches how &quot;we have to get rid of that NAFTA&quot; she makes the uninformed think it must be some Bush program. If one wants to learn of the true Hillary, two words: Juanita Broderick. Google that.</description>

		<description>Voting for Hillary is like voting for the same old BS we saw when Bill was in power...Abuse, Lies, Scandals, and Favortism....Vote for change...I would vote Republican than vote for Hillary.</description>

		<description>It&#039;s very difficult to predict what will happen in the Texas and Ohio Democatic primaries. Perhaps the best thing to do is to just sit back and wait to see what happens--there doesn&#039;t seem to be any experts here, as most of the past prognasticators&#039; and polsters performance has been terrible.

I admit that I have a predilection for Obama, but has suprised me is the &quot;bitchiness&quot; of good old Hillary. The &quot;heads of Nation&quot; club is a good guy&#039;s club, but Hillary would change all that for the better. I still don&#039;t like you,Hillary (you old bitch), but good luck, and get in there and kick ass!!!</description>

		<description>The only “operating in the Federal Government” that Hillary did prior to becoming Senator is the fact that she slept with the President.

Failed there too obviously, or we wouldn&#039;t know Monica&#039;s name.</description>
