If Hillary could do half the job Obama does her record wouldn't look like crap.

Oh! I copied this from another poster--but I needs to be posted alot--the people need to know who will work hard for them and that person is not Hillary--it's Obama

The following information gathered from the Library of Congress on the Legislative experience Junior Senator Hillary Clinton and Junior Senator Barack Obama. Please Feel free to check these records for yourself and draw your own conclusion.

Senator Clinton, who has served only one full term, which is 6 years and another year campaigning, has authored and passed 20 twenty pieces of legislation in her term of six years into law. These bills can be found at (wwwhomas.loc.gov). Senator Clinton has passed.

(1) Establish the Kate Mullany National Historic Site.
(2) Support the goals and ideals of Better Hearing and Speech Month.
(3) Recognize the Ellis Island Medal of Honor.
(4) Name courthouse after Thurgood Marshall.
(5) Name courthouse after James L. Watson.
(6) Name post office after Jonn A. O'Shea.
(7) Designate Aug. 7, 2003, as National Purple Heart Recognition Day.
(8) Support the goals and ideals of National Purple Heart Recognition Day.
(9) Honor the life and legacy of Alexander Hamilton on the bicentennial of his death.
(10) Congratulate the Syracuse Univ. Orange Men's Lacrosse Team on winning the championship.
(11) Congratulate the Le Moyne College Dolphins Men's Lacrosse Team on winning the championship.
(12) Establish the 225th Anniversary of the American Revolution Commemorative Program.
(13) Name post office after Sergeant Riayan A. Tejeda.
(14) Honor Shirley Chisholm for her service to the nation and express condolences on her death.
(15) Honor John J. Downing, Brian Fahey, and Harry Ford, firefighters who lost their lives on duty.

Only five of Clinton's bills are, more substantive.
(16) Extend period of unemployment assistance to victims of 9/11.
(17) Pay for city projects in response to 9/11
(18) Assist landmine victims in other countries.
(19) Assist family caregivers in accessing affordable respite care.
(20) Designate part of the National Forest System in Puerto Rico as protected in the wilderness preservation system.

She has a nice list, but note that these are The Fact's straight from the Senate Record; Therefore, it is not made up.

Now, It is time to post Senator Obama's record from the Library of Congress.I have to mention that Senator Obama's list is too substantive, one is coalesced to categorize. Since its alot, remember you can go to the Library of Congress website, and check it out yourself, but I am just summarizing his first 8 months.

During Senator Obama's first 8 eight months of elected service he sponsored over 820 bills.

He introduced 233 bills regarding healthcare reform,
125 bills on poverty and public assistance,
112 bills on crime fighting,
97 economic bills,
60 human rights and anti-discrimination bills,
21 ethics reform bills,
15 gun control,
6 veterans affairs and many others.
In his first year in the U.S. Senate, he authored 152 bills and co-sponsored another 427. These included:
(1)the Coburn-Obama Government Transparency Act of 2006 that became LAW,
(2)The Lugar-Obama Nuclear Non-proliferation and Conventional Weapons Threat Reduction Act that became LAW, (3)The Comprehensive Immigration Reform Act that passed the Senate,
(4)The 2007 Government Ethics Bill that became LAW,
(5)The Protection Against Excessive Executive Compensation Bill that is in committee just to name a few.

In all since he entered the U.S. Senate, Senator Obama has written 890 bills and co-sponsored another 1096. An impressive record, for someone who supposedly has no legislative record. Read the facts and not emotion.

If Hillary Clinton claims to be ready to be President on Day One, then perhaps she is really saying it's because her husband can steer her through every unknown aspect of that? Frankly, I don't think America needs her to be able to do that, and to elect her on the basis of her "Day One" advantage. I do not trust the Clintons. Trust is something that is earned from past experiences, and honesty. The Clintons can't lay claim to those virtues, in fact they have shown indicators of the contrary. I think they view this Presidential race as "the end justifies the means".

Clinton targets Obama in speech

Scott, Seattle, WA — Tue, 19 Feb 2008 23:39:22 GMT

The Clintons, to adapt a line from Dr. Johnson, were not only corrupt, they were the cause of corruption in others. Yet seldom in America have so many come to excuse so much mendacity and malfeasance as during the Clinton years. Here are some of the facts that have been buried.

RECORDS SET

- The only president ever impeached on grounds of personal malfeasance
- Most number of convictions and guilty pleas by friends and associates*
- Most number of cabinet officials to come under criminal investigation
- Most number of witnesses to flee country or refuse to testify
- Most number of witnesses to die suddenly
- First president sued for sexual harassment.
- First president accused of rape.
- First first lady to come under criminal investigation
- Largest criminal plea agreement in an illegal campaign contribution case
- First president to establish a legal defense fund.
- First president to be held in contempt of court
- Greatest amount of illegal campaign contributions
- Greatest amount of illegal campaign contributions from abroad
- First president disbarred from the US Supreme Court and a state court

* According to our best information, 40 government officials were indicted or convicted in the wake of Watergate. A reader computes that there was a total of 31 Reagan era convictions, including 14 because of Iran-Contra and 16 in the Department of Housing & Urban Development scandal. 47 individuals and businesses associated with the Clinton machine were convicted of or pleaded guilty to crimes with 33 of these occurring during the Clinton administration itself. There were in addition 61 indictments or misdemeanor charges. 14 persons were imprisoned. A key difference between the Clinton story and earlier ones was the number of criminals with whom he was associated before entering the White House.

Using a far looser standard that included resignations, David R. Simon and D. Stanley Eitzen in Elite Deviance, say that 138 appointees of the Reagan administration either resigned under an ethical cloud or were criminally indicted. Curiously Haynes Johnson uses the same figure but with a different standard in "Sleep-Walking Through History: America in the Reagan Years: "By the end of his term, 138 administration officials had been convicted, had been indicted, or had been the subject of official investigations for official misconduct and/or criminal violations. In terms of number of officials involved, the record of his administration was the worst ever."

Clinton:

...ready to be Commander in Chief, but too busy to read the National Intelligence Estimate and sent us to war because she needed to look tough than stand tough against Bush.

...has a plan to provide health care for every single American, but has been making this same promise for fifteen years since 1993-- looks like she just can't get it done

...has faced serious Republican opposition in the past, but not in the last 7 years. Meanwhile, she and her husband have been taking money from special interests and lobbyists. We know about the $30 million of Kazakhstan-derived money... why do you hide your tax records from us?

...gives us many words but not many achievements in 35 years. Clinton uses a lot of words-- to attack her opponents, to play the race card, to justify breaking her pledge to not "campaign or participate" in Michigan, but beyond her rhetoric, she is just another poorly-qualified job seeker who embellishes her resume on her real experience and real accomplishments.

Clinton, your job interview has not gone well. Another candidate has better qualifications for the job you seek.

Right now, too many people are struggling. Working the day shift, the night shift, trying to get by without health care... They need a president ready on day one to be commander in chief. Ready to manage our economy. And ready to beat the Republicans this November. I will be that president."

This is close to incoherent. The commander in chief has what to do with the economy (other than selling the country's future to fund a stupid war)?

And a commander in chief president, ready from day one, to beat the Republicans the November before?

Huh? I wouldn't let Bush get away with that sort of confused nonsense.

Dan, Ohio — Tue, 19 Feb 2008 23:50:20 GMT

There is nothing negative about that message. If Obama has "change what have you" this is Hilary's message - and she's proven herself to be resilient. She had gone up against the Republican machinery for 20 years. It is so true.

From: Stephanie, Wilmington, DE (Sent Monday, February 18, 2008 11:57 AM)

Remember that young voters(college students) are attracted to whatever is new and exciting and trendy, i.e. Obama. However, as with John Kerry in the last election, you can't depend on young voters to carry you into the White House. They notoriously don't come out for the election. Kerry thought he was the candidate for change too and depended heavily on young voters and look what that got him.
( I am not comparing Kerry vs. Obama).

The second thing is that the middle and working classes will be the people to elect the next president, and they are concerned with bread and butter issues. Obama is attracting primarily young voters and intellectuals.

Don't get me wrong, I thought Obama was destined to be president the first time I saw him speak at the Democratic Convention. At that time all I could think of was "WOW". I was so inspired by that speech that I printed it off the internet and kept it to read over and over. The man is definitely an inspiration and a tremendous speaker.I am still awed by him.

But I am being practical here - I really like Hillary too and I think the people will vote for her over any republican too. She is older and wiser than Obama and I think her time is NOW. Obama is young and inexperienced and I think his time is after Hillary's. He will still be inspiring and wonderful after 8 years of Hillary. And he will gain experience during that time. Then we (democrats) can lock up the presidency for 8 years more with Obama. It sounds like a Win, Win solution to me.

Keep up the fight Hilary!

WHEN is someone in the press going to confront Hillary on these claims like "only one of us has spent 35 years being a doer, a fighter and a champion for those who need a voice."

First of all, the notion that Obama is not a "doer" is an insult. The man was a community organizer in Chicago after Harvard Law School, then a state senator, then a U.S. senator. What's Hillary's "35 years" consist of? 35 years ago she was still in law school. After that, she became a corporate lawyer with the Rose Law Firm for 16 years and first lady of Arkansas. Then in 1992, she became First Lady in the White House. Her one major attempt at an accomplishment was health care reform which failed spectacularly. She has been a U.S. Senator for 6 years. Obama has been one for 3 years which, added to his years as a state senator, puts him in public office longer than Clinton.

When is someone going to call her on this lie? Is the press afraid to appear "sexist" by pointing out that she was merely the wife of an office-holder during most of these "35 years"? That's the only explanation I can think of for the kid gloves.

15 of those years were as a corporate lawyer defending Walmart and others (anti-union, anti-environment, anti-progressive.)

the biggest enterprize either Obama or Clinton have run in their lives have been their respective campaigns for president. Who has had the winning strategy? Who has made the right investment choices? Who has mobilized the masses for change? Who continues to raise millions of dollars from small donors (and thus not as reliant of big donors)? Who has been a leader? Who is uniting every corner of the Democratic party with independants and moderate Republicans?

Hillary had the best opportunity anyone has had since Carter to pass healthcare reform in '93, with Dems controlling the Congress and 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. She took responsibility for health care reform, and blew this opportunity so miserably that Congress went from blue to red the first election after Billary took office.

A mandate is NOT universal healthcare. Just because my fine state of Ohio mandates auto insurance doesn't mean that everyone buys it. And they get fined if they don't have it. Further, a mandate provides no incentive for big insurance companies to reduce premiums. This is as true with your current automobile insurance as it will be if Hillary gets the healthcare reform she has proposed.

In response to Dan from Ohio, I am a young voter, and I am sick and tired of the older fraction of the population hijacking the elections and putting in the same establishment. I don't want to sound callous, but I and my generation will inherit this nation, NOT the seniors who will be dead before the next president finishes his/her term. The baby boomers are intent on leaving my generation with a planet in environmental ruins, an empire stretched too far, and a national debt that I will have to pay and they will not.

If you keep voting how you always voted, you will keep getting what you've always got. The Clintons had their crack at fixing things in this nation. And do you see where we are now?

If Hillary steals this election... or even if she manages to brainwash voters with her tired old "Day One" platitudes and it works... if Hillary clinches the nomination, I will vote McCain. Hell, at least he's honest.

Angel, Spring, TX — Wed, 20 Feb 2008 00:27:09 GMT

The Gallup daily tracking poll Feb 16 to18 shows Clinton closing on Obama from 49%-42% to 46%-45%. Since the poll is based on 3 days polling, I estimate the Monday Feb 18 polling by Gallup, Hillary Clinton with 50% and Barack Obama with 41%.

A Hillary Clinton win in Wisconsin (or losing by less than 5%) may confirm her campaign was effective over the weekend as reflected by my estimate of the National Gallup poll on Monday.

A quote from The New York Times, Feb. 19, 1992:
"Gov. Bill Clinton of Arkansas was comfortably in second place at 26 percent and in a position to take his resilient candidacy on to the string of primaries in his native South."

It's a funny thing to listen to Clinton fans latch right on to the latest "he's all words". Whenever I ask a Clinton fan to name 3 historic or landmark things she championed on her own and got passed through, not a single one has been able to do it. Hillary presents herself as if she's FDR ready to save us all from despair. Look at her actual achievements...it's very typical and generic stuff of a junior senator who just finished first full term. It's amazing that after 20 consecutive years of Bush-Clinton-Bush that about half Democrats want to send the same thing right back into the White House. Some Democrats are treating Obama as if he's literally as bad as George Bush. It's absurd and the Clinton fan base has to be the ones considered cultish or weird at this point.

Regardless of all that has been said about Hillary, I admire her intelligence, courage, toughness, skills and her down-to-earth attitude. Remember, we are to vote for our next president, not a spiritual leader. Hillary has the experience, skills and common sense to lead the country in the global economy and threat.

Andre Kaz--the website you suggested does not exist. This one does

http://thomas.loc.gov/

Obama sponsored 113 bills.

I think these Clinton sponsored bills are substantive:
A bill to provide higher education assistance for nontraditional students, and for other purposes
A bill to require the Nuclear Regulatory Commission to conduct an independent safety assessment of the Indian Point Nuclear Power Plant
A bill to require the Nuclear Regulatory Commission to conduct an independent safety assessment of the Indian Point Nuclear Power Plant
A bill to amend the Truth in Lending Act, to provide for enhanced disclosures to consumers and enhanced regulation of mortgage brokers, and for other purposes.
Andre--why misrepresent the truth? You have listed the bills of Clinton that have passed, while listing what Obama has sponsored. Most of the Clinton sponsored bills deal with children, family issues and education. Are you saying these are not important?

This is why Democrats will lose in the fall. I am a Democrat and both sides should be ashamed of themselves. If the Clintons are playing dirty politics, then Obama has met their offer and doubled it. He is bringing politics as usual to a whole new level. Neither campaign is playing it straight with the public. I believe Clinton is more qualified, but right now I feel like sitting home in November.

If we choose Hillary, we WIN.

If we choose Barack "Hussein" Obama, we LOSE.

When the Republicans get through with Obama we will LOSE the general election... Inspiration is a two-edged sword!

Democrats you make the call...

Do we take the White House or the Out House, again?

"They need a president ready on day one to be commander in chief." -- Hillary Clinton

George H. W. Bush's campaign slogan in 1988 was "Ready on Day One."

If I was mean I would call it plagiarism.

You guys need to regurgitate less, and be journalists more:
- Does the speech represent something that is fundamentally shifting about this candidate's approach?
- Why is Clinton leaking text of speech on a results day?

Hillary is a VENTRILOQUIST for her husband's UN-American, UN-Constitutional, UN-Democratic THIRD term presidency.

Hatfields and McCoys have become the Bushes and Clintons. Give us a break! We needa President that can move us past the petty bickering.

What is this? Isn't it time for her to move beyond the "solutions, not speeches" theme for this week? When will she roll out her next losing theme?

The difference between this 'speech' and one given by Biden or Dodd or whoever is what?

Mrs. C, you are a fine U.S. senator. It's about character, not resume or entitlement.

Words don't matter!! It's not over yet but I am beginning to feel sorry for the Clintons. He lied under oath and we forgave him, she is disliked by 48% of Americans yet Democrats wanted her to succeed. Howard Wolfsen is single handedly shoving the Clintons down the toilet. It really is sad!!!
