Hillary Clinton Draws Boos at Iowa Campaign Event, 1 Day After Hostage Situation
Sunday, December 02, 2007

Excerpt

Whatever public sympathy Hillary Clinton had built up during the tense hostage situation at her New Hampshire campaign office appeared to dissipate Saturday, as she was met with a round of boos during an address over the phone to an Iowa political event.

At the Heartland Presidential Candidates Forum in Des Moines, community activists lustily booed the Democratic frontrunner after she declined to commit to passing comprehensive immigration reform in her first 100 days in office.

Clinton showed up in person, along with the six other candidates, for an evening forum before African-American and Hispanic activists.

In the early forum, Clinton said reform would be a "high priority" for her, but that didn't satisfy a crowd looking for legislation that would move illegal immigrants swiftly on a path to legalization.

Former radio talk show host John Ziegler also made an off-color Clinton comment Saturday while introducing GOP candidate Fred Thompson at an event in California.

"In case you missed it, some nut job broke in (Clinton's campaign office) and took hostages and apparently threatened to blow himself up unless he got a chance to speak to Hillary," Ziegler said. "Now, I found this rather odd because I always feel like blowing myself up after I hear Hillary Clinton speak."

Boo Boo Boo Boo Boo Boo Boo Boo Boo Boo Boo Boo Boo Boo Boo Boo

Guess what Radio bitch your twin sister draws boo's here.:lmao2: :lmao2: :lmao2:

[disrupter]

they booed her, but i bet they will be voting for her.

i may vote for her, but i hope the dems get someone better than her.

If she is pitted against Ron Paul, i will probably vote for Paul.
She is just another neo-Crook in Democrat's clothing.

I wouldn't worry too much about Hillary going up against Ron Paul, because the only way that could happen is if the other five or six republicans running all either quit the campaign or died before the election. :lmao2:

[disrupter]

The NSA has arranged for things like that to happen before,
although my bet is Ron Paul is not one of their corrupted corporanistas.

Ron Paul did raise among the largest fundraising for the GOP.
If he chooses to run as a third party candidate i will likely vote for him.

the rest of the GOP line up is hardly worth spitting on.
Although McCain did actually stand up against Romney's pro-torture tap-dance routine.
Better than the way he caved to Bush, after being baselessly smeared by Bushinistas in the Carolinas.
His embrace of Bush lost much of any respect i ever had for him.
& his stance on the war, now, is something i just can't vote for.

These damn computerized ballots don't allow write-in candidates,
that it seems to me is a VERY big problem with them.
They need to include a keypad for 'type-in' candidates.
Isn't that an infringement of our voting rights?
mechanically disallowing write or type ins?

Rudy's Ties to a Terror Sheikh

Published on Wednesday, November 28, 2007.





Source: Village Voice - Wayne Barrett

Three weeks after 9/11, when the roar of fighter jets still haunted the city's skyline, the emir of gas-rich Qatar, Sheikh Hamad bin Khalifah al-Thani, toured Ground Zero. Although a member of the emir's own royal family had harbored the man who would later be identified as the mastermind of the attack—a man named Khalid Sheikh Muhammad, often referred to in intelligence circles by his initials, KSM—al-Thani rushed to New York in its aftermath, offering to make a $3 million donation, principally to the families of its victims. Rudy Giuliani, apparently unaware of what the FBI and CIA had long known about Qatari links to Al Qaeda, appeared on CNN with al-Thani that night and vouched for the emir when Larry King asked the mayor: "You are a friend of his, are you not?"
"We had a very good meeting yesterday. Very good," said Giuliani, adding that he was "very, very grateful" for al-Thani's generosity. It was no cinch, of course, that Giuliani would take the money: A week later, he famously rejected a $10 million donation from a Saudi prince who advised America that it should "adopt a more balanced stand toward the Palestinian cause." (Giuliani continues to congratulate himself for that snub on the campaign trail.) Al-Thani waited a month before expressing essentially the same feelings when he returned to New York for a meeting of the U.N. General Assembly and stressed how important it was to "distinguish" between the "phenomenon" of 9/11 and "the legitimate struggles" of the Palestinians "to get rid of the yoke of illegitimate occupation and subjugation." Al-Thani then accused Israel of "state terrorism" against the Palestinians.

But there was another reason to think twice about accepting al-Thani's generosity that Giuliani had to have been aware of, even as he heaped praise on the emir. Al Jazeera, the Arabic news network based in Qatar (pronounced "Cutter"), had been all but created by al-Thani, who was its largest shareholder. The Bush administration was so upset with the coverage of Osama bin Laden's pronouncements and the U.S. threats to bomb Afghanistan that Secretary of State Colin Powell met the emir just hours before Giuliani's on-air endorsement and asked him to tone down the state-subsidized channel's Islamist footage and rhetoric. The six-foot-eight, 350-pound al-Thani, who was pumping about $30 million a year into Al Jazeera at the time, refused Powell's request, citing the need for "a free and credible media." The administration's burgeoning distaste for what it would later brand "Terror TV" was already so palpable that King—hardly a newsman—asked the emir if he would help "spread the word" that the U.S. was "not targeting the average Afghan citizen." Al-Thani ignored the question—right before Giuliani rushed in to praise him again.

Tom Tancredo Hired Illegal Laborers to Renovate His McMansion

By Max Blumenthal, AlterNet. Posted December 1, 2007.



Anti-immigration zealot and GOP presidential candidate Tom Tancredo hired what he often refers to as "criminal aliens" to renovate his Colorado house.

When Republican Representative Tom Tancredo isn’t railing against the “scourge” of illegal immigration on the presidential campaign trail, he relaxes in the 1053 square foot basement recreation room of his Littleton, Colorado McMansion. There, he and his family can rack up a game of billiards on their tournament size pool table, play pinball, or enjoy their favorite movies in the terraced seating area of a home theater system. Tancredo, who dodged the draft during the Vietnam War by producing evidence that he suffered from mentally illnesses, especially likes entertaining his buddies with classic war movies.

“We have friends over and I have now shown Pearl Harbor about six times,” Tancredo boasted to the Rocky Mountain News about his 102-inch television. “But I mainly just show the attack scene because the sound is so good.”

When Tancredo hired a construction crew to transform his drab basement into a high-tech pleasure den in October 2001, however, he did not express concern that only two of its members spoke English. Nor did he bother to check the workers’ documentation to see if they were legal residents of the United States. Had Tancredo done so, he would have learned that most of the crew consisted of undocumented immigrants, or “criminal aliens” as he likes to call them. Instead, Tancredo paid the crew $60,000 for its labor and waited innocently for the completion of his elaborate entertainment complex.

During the renovation process, two illegal workers hired by Tancredo were alerted to his reputation for immigrant bashing. They went straight to the Denver Post to complain. Tancredo “doesn't want us here, but he'll take advantage of our sweat and our labor,” one of the workers complained to the Post on September 19, 2002. “It's just not right.”

Ouch!

Too Tough Times 4 Tommy Tancredo.

lol.

maybe he wants to get his construction crew deported before he has to pay them.
that is how a lot of construction crook operations work,
they work the illegals all week, then when payday comes they just don't show up to pick them up again.

The whole thing is such a degenerative corrosion to law & order,
employers, workers, everyone is competitively forced towards criminality.

America, the land of bigger, flashier criminals.

As Senator Rose, Lobbying Became Family Affair

WASHINGTON, June 29 — On Christmas Eve 1994, Fred D. Thompson Jr. was out of a job. A 34-year-old self-described late bloomer, Mr. Thompson had graduated from law school just two years before and practiced law only for his father, Fred D. Thompson Sr., who was about to be sworn in as a senator from Tennessee.

Candidate Topic PagesMore Politics News“I was out on the street, knocking on doors,” recalled the younger Mr. Thompson, who is known as Tony.

But attending Brentwood Methodist Church in Nashville that night, Tony Thompson ran into the departing incumbent senator, Harlan Mathews, a Democrat. Mr. Mathews invited Tony to join him in a Nashville lobbying business, a job that would let him capitalize on his father’s new position.

“I don’t just believe in the tooth fairy,” Mr. Mathews said. “A lot of people were seeking access — not necessarily unfair access, but seeking access — so Tony was employed in a number of areas where his father had made a reputation or his father’s advice or whatever was going to be valuable one of these days.”

Now the elder Mr. Thompson, who also worked as a lobbyist before and after his eight years in the Senate, is aiming for an even higher post, preparing a run for the Republican presidential nomination. In the folksy drawl that built him a lucrative sideline as a screen actor, Mr. Thompson is presenting himself as a reform-minded outsider taking on Washington, just as he did when he campaigned for the Senate as “Ol’ Fred” the “real live country lawyer,” and cruised Tennessee in a rented red pickup truck.

But the lobbying work that Tony Thompson and another son, Daniel, did after their father won his Senate seat suggests how far the family has traveled from Fred Thompson’s early career. Not only has he parlayed his own political background into a lobbying business — a fact his opponents have seized on to challenge his outsider image — but his sons have also made lobbying a family affair.

I think the hostage situation was staged to put her ugly mug on the tv and
papers right before the caucus. Its much more likely that it happened that
way than the conspiracy threory about 9-11! If you buy into that you have
to seriously consider that the other was staged for attention.

[disrupter]

Well i certainly don't dismiss the possibility.
Goodness knows you have to take everything the negligent corporate press reports with a grain of salt.
the last investigative corporate journalist died or quit decades ago.

It might even have been staged by the NSA/CIA, even without Hillary's or any associated staff's knowledge.
But likely this guy is just a nut case.

You might think it strange, but i think a more subtle conspiracy might be at work, the black sick humor of the dead universe may be at work.

We are clumsy dull machines, probably easily manipulated by the subtle forces of the universe. Like tall, imbalanced top-heavy towers, it is all we can do to stay upright.
Did you know there is a small electrical charge that races across the top of our heads, even before we think each new thought? I find that a little chilling.

Now if there is some subtle yet coherent manipulator at work is difficult to say.
Anyone interested in manipulating another has to be at a locally similar level for it to make much sense.
Our politics may just be shoeleather for some creature's boots.
It really would be difficult to say,
especially if you had several competing clandestine forces at work. Parsing one from another & their possible wrestling actions.

I have a pretty good imagination.

[SirMoby]

After 3 years of the neocon hate machine going after Hillary nonstop it's about time.

I still think that booing Giuliani was much more interesting.

[disrupter]

But it was the Illegal Amnesty crowd booing her.

like i say, they will certainly be voting for her or whatever democrat candidate is chosen, because the GOP is all trying to out 'tough' one another on it, with the possible exception of McCain, who of course was there while congress & the whitehouse neglected the job of guarding the border & charging criminal employers with their crimes.

Giuliani should be shot for letting hundreds of firefighters die on 911 with old radios that couldn't even communicate, while police radios did, because of a no-bid contract with motorola.

The 'new' Motorola radios were such crap that the firefighters were forced back into using the previous ones which were known to be faulty, the very radios they had when they died on 911, because they never got the 'pull back' orders.

No way to run a city.
And no way that SOB is running this nation either.
