Exactly...but does that surprise you? she was pushing for the Florida delegates to be seated, and has in a round about way campaigned in this state. Its a disgrace, Obama, and Edwards should be raising hell with this back handed political strategy. But then again it is the clintons...what did they expect, for her to keep her word?

Lets see...they are highly corrupt. They are highly immoral (renting out the Lincoln bedroom, taking contributions from the Chinese, stealing furniture out of the White House on their way out, trashing AF1 on their way out, general attitudes). Plus they are soulless, and should have never been in power. Contrary to popular belief, bill did not do that much for the economy. it was slipping towards a recession when he was on his way out.

Well lets see, how did you get I said "the most corrupt people on earth"? Trying to do a little slant on this are we? the economy was trashed when he left office. He had scandal after scandal, he was impeached. He demoralized the country with "I did not have sexual relations with that woman". By saying that, he claims a bj is not sex, thus is ok for kids to do. We can argue that point till we are blue in the face. People have to deal with their actions, and how it will impact others. We can talk about illegal campaign contributions, shady dealings with the chinese. The lack of fortitude against aggressors...the list goes on and on.

Tell me exactly what did he do for the economy? The link between the President and the economy is tenuous at best, the most the President can hope to do is influence. Clinton just happened to be President when the tech boom started, and left office right before the bubble bursting hit in full force.

Also the environment, Clinton courted then green agenda but he never embraced it. The difference between him and Bush is that Bush didn't bother courting it.

The balance budget came from increased tax revenue from the Tech Bubble, and decreased military spendings from Cold War levels. No social program was defunded by Clinton, nor by Congress. Welfare was reorganized, but he vetoed twice.

Lets list some of the things that he did or helped get done:
Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act
Family and Medical Leave Act
Started the AmeriCorps
Brady Handgun Violence Prevention Act
Line Item Veto Act
Iraq Liberation Act
Created the Ballistic Missile Defense Organization (National Missile Defense Program)
Intervened in Kosovo
Attempted to end the Arab-Israeli Conflict (Key word attempt neither side wants peace)
Don't Ask Don't Tell
Approved extraordinary rendition

That's pretty much his presidency in a nut shell, some good, some bad, some otherwise. Those are things that he supported or was directly involved in.

The Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act is what balanced the budget. Hence, Bill Clinton balanced the fucking budget. Why can't people give credit where credit is due? By the way, him and those Republicans in congress screamed bloody murder at eachother over it. ;)


And Joe, I entirely agree with you. Hillary IS NOT Bill. Bill Clinton, character flaws aside (which ignorant fucking America seems to forget are less important than how the president manages this country), was an overall good president. He did some good things for this country. I cannot see his wife doing anywhere near the same amount of good. But I CAN see her fucking up our finances almost as bad as Bush has (she'll end the war, so there is no way she will spend as much as Bush has) and ushering in a new era of socialism, abuse of the hard-working and well-off middle and upper classes, and oh yeah...we'll get attacked. And she won't do shit about it aside from try to 'talk peace' and throw money at them.

What a waste of tax payer money. How much tax payer money did they spend on investigations? The whole thing was entirely partisan and should have been kept behind doors. But nooooooo, the right winger hatred for Clinton was overwhelming their logical thought process and they went ahead and impeached him against the will of the general public and they lost some seats because of it.

Hillary Clinton on Gun Control



Keep guns away from people who shouldn’t have them
We need to stand firm on behalf of sensible gun control legislation. We have to enact laws that will keep guns out of the hand of children and criminals and mentally unbalanced persons. Congress should have acted before our children started going back to school. I realize the NRA is a formidable political group; but I believe the American people are ready to come together as a nation and do whatever it takes to keep guns away from people who shouldn’t have them.
Source: www.hillary2000.org, “Gun Safety” Sep 9, 2000

License and register all handgun sales
Hillary Rodham Clinton offered her support for a legislative proposal to license hand guns. The legislation, sponsored by Sen. Charles Schumer, would require anyone who wants to purchase a gun to obtain a state-issued photo gun license. “I stand in support of this common sense legislation to license everyone who wishes to purchase a gun,” Clinton said. “I also believe that every new handgun sale or transfer should be registered in a national registry, such as Chuck is proposing.”
Source: CNN.com Jun 2, 2000

Tough gun control keeps guns out of wrong hands
I think it does once again urge us to think hard about what we can do to make sure that we keep guns out of the hands of children and criminals and mentally unbalanced people. I hope we will come together as a nation and do whatever it takes to keep guns away from people who have no business with them.
Source: Press Release Jul 31, 1999

Gun control protects our children
We will not make progress on a sensible gun control agenda unless the entire American public gets behind it. It is really important for each of you [kids] to make sure you stay away from guns. If you have guns in your home, tell your parents to keep them away from you and your friends and your little brothers and sisters.
Source: Forum at South Side Middle School in Nassau County Jul 15, 1999

Don’t water down sensible gun control legislation
We have to do everything possible to keep guns out of the hands of children, and we need to stand firm on behalf of the sensible gun control legislation that passed the Senate and then was watered down in the House. It does not make sense for us at this point in our history to turn our backs on the reality that there are too many guns and too many children have access to those guns-and we have to act to prevent that.
Source: Remarks to NEA in Orlando, Florida Jul 5, 1999

Lock up guns; store ammo separately
If you own a gun... make sure it’s locked up and stored without the ammunition. In fact, make it stored where the ammunition is stored separately. We’ve made some progress in the last several years with the Brady Bill and some of the bans on assault weapons, but we have a lot of work to do.

You guys would still be able to keep your guns. You would just have to get an ID and register them. These chnages would make it harder for criminals to get guns and if you do that you have done a good job in protecting. Virginia Tech would not have happened if they had these laws enacted. I'm sure it would have stopped a lot of other killings as well.

Why should I have to have an ID and register my guns? How does that make the world safer? How would registering my guns have prevented Virginia Tech? What other killings would've been stopped by registering my guns and getting an ID?

What crimes have been solved with the use of gun registration databases thus far?

Not true, she is all in favor of a stricter version of the AWB.. so many people would have to get rid of/modify their "evil" looking weapons cause we all know they kill more people than "non-evil" looking weapons. :roll:


You would just have to get an ID and register them.
They would put in place a system to where you would need to go through the same motions as you do for a carry permit and the cost would probably be cost to the same. They then take a ballistic fingerprint of your gun and put it into a database that cost millions to upkeep. (just look at the one New York currently has and how much good it has done)

How so? How do you think criminals get their guns now? No anti-gun legislation will ever get rid of illegal gun trade/sales. Drugs are illegal.. does that stop millions from buying them on the street daily? nope..

doubtful.. know what could have stopped those shootings? law abiding citizens being able to carry a concealed firearm on school property..

Criminals don't exactly follow laws, so passing another law won't effect them. They will get their guns the same way they always do, buy one of the millions of guns already on the black market.

The NICS improvement act (which passed already) might have prevented VT, but even that is far fetched the person with a mental defect just needs to not get caught. Cho was considered only a threat to himself, and under the old law they aren't required to reported that to the NICS, but he already lied when he filled out the 4473 because it asks if you have ever been adjudicated with a mental defect.

Gun registration solves nothing, not even the in depth ones like in Maryland where they take a fired case and put it on file. That system costs the tax payers of Maryland millions every year, yet it has not solved a single crime. The average legal gun owner actually commits less crimes (even minor ones) then the general population. If I were going to kill someone would I use a gun that can be tracked to me in any way shape or form?

The best way to prevent Virginia Tech-style shootings is to allows college students to carry concealed weapons just like any other public place(assuming its a public college).

There are enough countries with gun registration and license laws.

Please give me one bit of proof that those countries have LESS VIOLENT CRIME then America.

If not, then you have made no point and will simply believe whatever the Brady Campaign will tell you. (Sheep)

I don't think a republican will win this election as America wants a change. Bush did spend allot of money funding the war of oil , but you also have to toss the blame to the Banks and their stupid lending practices to people who shouldn't be given loans. I have to say Id much perfer to see Hilary in office than Barak Obama , but then agian I probally wont vote as I see no one i care for

I find it interesting that so many people say they "want a change" but never add the needed part... "for the better".

Either way is a "change" as Bush is not (can't) run again.

Why change for the worse?

1. I will never again bitch about taxes to fund public education.

2. Change? You are telling me you want to extend the two decades of control of the White House by two families? How, exactly, is that change?

In response to your #1 statement :thumbsup:

For your second one, the argument for two decades of control in the white house by the CLintons and Bushes sounds good but it doesn't hold water. Both families have completely different philosophies on how to run this country. Do you think Bush wants to do anything for healthcare besides making it more private than it already is? How about Clinton? How about the issue of what to do with Iraq? Do you think Clinton would stay the course?

I don't care if they are polar opposites, In a country of 300 million, you want to extend control of the White House past 2 decades by TWO FAMILIES?

Well I still have the same answer for you. :) Considering how I think Clinton did a great job as president my answer is yes.

Thats not the governments job...Find me one article in the Constitution that states, the Federal Government must supply health care, and social programs for the citizens. Anyone can get insurance, but most just want handouts.

Well lets see, how did you get I said "the most corrupt people on earth"? Trying to do a little slant on this are we? the economy was trashed when he left office.

are you kidding me? theres was a 500 BILLION dollar SURPLUS... which bush promptly refunded in taxes and then charged up trilions more.

Theres a lotta things you can blame on clinton, budget is not one of them.

Good point. Thank's for putting things in perspective. We all owe atleast $30,000 in taxes for this war. I think this thread has strayed far enough. If no one minds I'll close it because these are all seperate topics.
