You guys keep pushing back the goal posts every time I counter an assertion. <BR/><BR/>You did not qualify what sort of reporting you were looking for. All you asserted was that there was no mention of what Hillary money controversy. <BR/><BR/>Robert does this to me all the time when I find evidence to counter what he has posted. <BR/><BR/>As to your comment that the Thompson/Martin controversy was about something that happened "in the past"--are you serious? <BR/><BR/>Every single conservative blog--EVERY ONE--mentions Ted Kennedy's tragedy/scandal all the time. That happened in 1969! Robert brought it up in this post! Conservatives bring it up all the time.<BR/><BR/>Okay, if that's because what he did is a measure of his character, then who Fred Thompson choses as his close friends is a measure of his character--and Rudy! Giuliani--whose close friend, and whom he recommeded to head Homeland Security, has just been criminally indicted.<BR/><BR/>You guys can't have it both ways.<BR/><BR/>You can't dismiss Thompson's and Giuliani's poor judgment just because they are in your party.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21307924.post-64931427374753768342007-11-10T09:44:00.000-06:002007-11-10T09:44:00.000-06:00Shaw, Shaw, Shaw......You did your research and I ...Shaw, Shaw, Shaw......You did your research and I give you credit for googling. But did you really read the articles? I honestly don't see how you could have and still use them as evidence. <BR/><BR/>For example in Huffington's....The first one barely mentioned Hillary's name and when it did, it of course said she had no knowledge of this whatsoever and is looking into it and will investigate further. The next one told of her generosity by giving it to charity. <BR/><BR/>You can't just google things and present them as evidence. Yes, it was a liberal blog, and yes, it "mentioned" Hillary and Hsu, but that doesn't mean that it actually took her to task for what she did. It criticizes Hsu plently, but it makes Hillary out to be the victim. (Poor ol' me, I didn't know about any of that).<BR/><BR/>It manages to put a positive spin on it, so in my opinion your examples and null and void.<BR/><BR/>You mention about Fred Thomson but don't you realize there is a difference in what happened in one's past (not that it's still not important, don't get me wrong) and what someone is doing currently and quite illegally I might add. <BR/><BR/>Why would I blog about something that happened years ago. I do try and stay current. I won't sit here and tell you that Fred Thompson is perfect or that he never makes mistakes, but I trust him and his beliefs and when it all comes down to it, that is what matters.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21307924.post-17585319195056079582007-11-09T14:40:00.000-06:002007-11-09T14:40:00.000-06:00Jenn,The Huffington Post is one of the top liberal...Jenn,<BR/><BR/>The Huffington Post is one of the top liberal blogs.

He was charged in 1983 with violating his probation and with multiple counts of felony bookmaking, cocaine trafficking and conspiracy. He pleaded no contest to the cocaine-trafficking and conspiracy charges, which stemmed from a plan to sell $30,000 worth of the drug, and was continued on probation."<BR/><BR/>That shows that Fred really knows how to discern "character."<BR/><BR/>Of course, had this been Hillary, you guys would have been screaming for her to be hanged by her toenails.

Being from Alabama it is just second nature that we don't appreciate her liberalism. I think she harbors a life-long grudge about not being born Massachusetts blueblood. <BR/><BR/>It is getting harder and harder to win without the south. The population is growing as is the status in the economy. Michigan is losing out to new manufacturing facilities (Mercedes, Kia, Honda, Toyota, Nissan) and jobs are moving south. <BR/><BR/>She is devisive, and that is why I like her as an opponent in the general election. She will have the 40% on the left, the 40% ont h right will mobilize against her despite the GOP candidate, and the 20% in the middle won't be swaywed by waffling and huge tax increases.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for the help...I should have put a little more thought into my analysis. <BR/><BR/>Ken, you are right about the sitting senator issue. in this case I don't think it is a consideration because other factors such as the public's knowledge of her outweigh this..I hope I am wrong about that, and it is one more point in our favor!Roberthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17457956739752722879noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21307924.post-53651100306212477392007-11-07T11:16:00.000-06:002007-11-07T11:16:00.000-06:00Well said and well written.

Only garfield and Kennedy were elected as sitting Senators. This country likes even a Senator to have some type of executive experience BEFORE being Presidetn. Whether VP, CEO of a company , Governor or head of a large law firm like Thompson.<BR/><BR/>2. to get the nomination she has to show her true liberal face, which she is and it is killing her in polling with likely voters for next November.<BR/><BR/>3. if nominated she must try to act moderate for a general election which will kill her with the liberal left and as such sink her in the election because of their anger against her abandining the moonbats!'<BR/><BR/>Like you I want her to get the nomination because she and her baggage mean advantage GOP!The Liberal Lie The Conservative Truthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07082308076603570611noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21307924.post-82344559728697472012007-11-07T10:50:00.000-06:002007-11-07T10:50:00.000-06:00This is an excellant, well thought out post.
