Very interesting article. He was taking some points Bill made about Hillary and answering them. It was a kind of "He said, and what really happened was this...". Also, here are some points he made about Hillary.
"1. She wants to close GITMO & move the combatants to the USA where they would have access to our legal system.
2. She wants to eliminate the monitoring of suspected Al Qaeda phone calls to/from the USA.
3. She wants to grants constitutional rights to enemy combatants captured on the battlefield.
4. She wants to eliminate the monitoring of money transfers between suspected Al Qaeda cells & supporters in the USA.
5. She wants to eliminate the type of interrogation tactics used by the military & CIA where coercion might be used when questioning known terrorists even though such tactics might save American lives."Like I said..it is a very interesting article...well worth reading.

I believe Hillary was only saying what she thinks democratic voters want to hear. Once she is in office I truely believe Al Qaeda and their ilk are going to rue the day the USA elected a woman to be President.
I believe Hillary's actions in the war on terror will make George W. Bush look like a compassionate conservative Boy Scout.
Hillary will tell any lie she deems convenient. She will be entirely as ruthless as she needs to be.
I don't want Hillary as President, but I do not believe for a minute that when she gets the power of the Presidency in her own hands she will voluntarily give up any of that power.
I expect that suddenly, "Now that I've experienced first hand the difficulties of the office.", Hillary will see all this in a different light.

I will agree that she was saying "what they people want to hear" but, if that is the case and she has not even earned the Democratic Nomination as of yet, how can we possibly trust her in office? Then she will have the power, and her true colors will begin to show.

Yes, exactly what I'm trying to say. She can not be trusted and probably will be a war mongering tryant in her own right.

I only hope that she does not manage to get elected into office. I am seeing a lot of posts here asking whether you want a woman or a black man for president. I really hope that is not what this election is turned into. The decision of whom to vote for as the next president should be an informed one based on the individual candidate's beliefs and stance on the important issues. It should also be based on whether or not they have the qualifications and background to be able to make a good leader - not race and gender! I really hope that is not what this election becomes based on.

I've been watching the debates, and so far I've heard none of that come out of her mouth.

Well, that certainly was an eye opener. Makes one wonder who is left to vote for. Who else is running for the Democrats?

I had not seen this article! Thank you so much for this VERY eye-opening piece of news. I had actually been considering voting for her - based on what I had seen of her on her website and You Tube. My husband and I drive a truck for a living and as such, I frequently miss news that I really need to see. I will definitely start doing more in-depth research on the possible candidates before I make a definite decision.

I do not want her as our next president. I do not think we will have a republican in the white house because of the terrible things George W. Bush has done. I feel we do not need Clinton's back in the white house period.
