Hillary to GOP: Stop the "posturing"

From the Politico

Hillary Rodham Clinton backs yesterday's agreement between Congressional leaders and Hank Paulson and is slamming the House GOP for "posturing" and "partisan politics."

Her statement:

"The crisis that has seized our markets and millions of families throughout our nation demands our swift action. Any further delay motivated solely by partisan politics and posturing risks deeper financial crisis and catastrophe.

While legitimate concerns about the proposal should be and will continue to be discussed, obstruction for its own sake undermines the economic security of our financial markets and nation. The gravity of the current crisis compels us to put aside partisan wrangling and posturing so that we can proceed on a course of action that will ensure the stability of our markets."

--McCain to appear at Clinton conference; Obama to speak via satellite
By Ben Smith

Bill Clinton just released the program for his annual Clinton Global Initiative, a New York conference that coincides with the United Nations General Assembly and typically draws an international A-list of speakers and guests.

John McCain will appear at the event in person, while Obama addresses it via satellite.

"Both United States presidential candidates will have a role in the Annual Meeting. Senator John McCain will deliver the opening remarks live at the "Integrated Solutions: water, food and energy" plenary session," says the press release.

The event, which carries a hefty price tag for guests, includes a revival-style conclusion, at which business leaders come on stage to make pledges to charities.

This year's attendees are expected to include, along with the two candidates, Queen Rania Al-Abdullah of Jordan, Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi, British Prime Minister Gordon Brown, Afghan President Hamid Karzai, and the presidents of Mexico, Rwanda, Libera, and other countries. Also expected: former Vice President Al Gore, oilman T. Boone Pickens, and Ukrainian oligarch Victor Pinchuk.

Support Sheila Jackson Lee

-- Bravo ~ Soldier4Hillary




~~ Sheila Jackson Lee



By Soldier4Hillary

How do you want to be remembered? As someone who sat on the sideline and watched our country spiral down to a point of no return? Or someone who had the ability to stand up and save a nation? The time for indecision is past. Words spoken throughout this last year will forever be a reminder of those who had the ability and courage to place there country, over a political party. The needs of a nation, and its people, over Pac contributions, dollar signs, hidden agenda's and ulterior motives. Look around you for a moment. Stop and take a hard look at the things that are happening in this world through someone else’s eyes. Walk a mile in someone else’s shoes. View someone else’s life and reality Travel there path. A path that they travel on, from day to day to get a different perspective. Sit aside your personal thoughts and beliefs and view the world through someone else’s eyes. Stop believing in someone and start believing in some thing. Leading a country is not just about having and maintaining the highest position our country has to offer. It's about understanding that the decisions you make, the judgments you may decide will not just affect one person, but all of us.

Stop thinking about what you personally want, click here

Steinem Does Not Speak For Me

--Gloria Steinem does not speak for me.

The feminist blew it this year. They had plenty of time to pull together and come to Hillary's side but they did not. Meanwhile, Obama's camp and the media did nothing but belittle women.

Now Steinem may mean well but we have two choices;

1. Vote for Obama to preserve women's rights even though his campaign, the democratic party and the media showed nothing but disdain for women. How ironic.

or

2. Vote for McCain as a way to let remind our party that if they don't care about our votes during the primaries, then we'll take our vote somewhere else.

To me, Palin is a bonus.

We don't all share the same values and that should be okay.

My values are based in principle. Steinem's values are based in the past. She and her community of women with strap ons blew it. By asking me to support the party that abused women in the first place is like asking me to stay in an abusive marriage in order to protect women's rights.

Uh, I don't think so. It's my "right" to JustSayNoDeal

Biden says, 'Hillary Clinton Is A Better VP Pick'.

This is both funny and sad at the same time because it is so true.


From ABC News
"Spokesman Ben Porritt offered this response from the McCain camp: "Barack Obama’s most important decision of this election, and Biden -- the candidate he selects -- suggests, himself, that he wasn’t the right man for the job, and that Hillary Clinton would have been a better choice. Biden certainly has a credible viewpoint on this."
From NewsBusters
"Of course, what makes this even more delicious is what Obama told CNN's Candy Crowley back in June:

Calling his choice of running mate "the most important decision that I will make before I am president," the senator from Illinois said he would "be deliberate and systematic about it, because this will be my final counselor when I am making decisions in the White House, and I want to make sure I get it

I get it's reassuring to the junior senator from Illinois that the person he picked doesn't agree with his decision."

Matt Damon Calls Palin VP-Palooza

-- Damon Calls Palin VP-Palooza 'Like a Really Bad Disney Movie'

OMG! What a disappointment. I love Matt Damon but where was he when Obama came out of nowhere with no experience. Do men not get it? Can they not see themselves as they resist women and then pretend their not doing that?


Calling the possibility of Sarah Palin being elevated to the presidency in the next four years a "really terrifying possibility," actor Matt Damon condemned the GOP's newest rock star as too green for the job in a new, no-holds-barred interview.
In it, the "Bourne Supremacy" star called the media swirl around John McCain's VP pick "like a really bad Disney movie" and openly questions whether the "folksy stuff [Palin] learned at the hockey rink" will go over well when she's "facing down
Vladimir Putin" and other world leaders.

He also makes it very clear he wants to know Palin's views on Earth's history, and whether "she really thinks dinosaurs were here 4,000 years ago," apparently referring to the Alaska Governor's creationist views, adding "because she's going to have the nuclear codes."

Gloria Steinem on What Women Value

--- The Democrats Have Reached A New Low.
by Rockin Robin


I just got an email from Democrats.com asking me to

Tell The Media to Call Sarah Palin a Serial Liar

What? I will do no such thing.

Have we lost our minds? Are they really asking us to partake in the sewage of smearing another woman? Hasn't the media already played their hand in sexism? Now the democrats are asking me to sling mud at another woman?

Did anyone get a note from the republicans asking us to trash Biden?

Yesterday, while campaigning in Virginia, Obama made reference to putting lipstick on a pig then denies to the media that it had any correlation to Sarah Palin's reference to lipstick on a pitbull during her campaign altering speech. Are you kidding me? This comment is rationalized with claims that it was an intended slap at McCain, but again Obama has insulted the intelligence of American women.

Radio host Caplis tells a 20,000 person crowd-"It just seems funny to hear Barack Obama say that he's for equal opportunity for women," Caplis said. "Tell that to Hillary Clinton."

Do you think if Hillary was on the ticket she would appreciate standing next to Obama while he makes that lipstick on pig comment? I surmise he wouldn't have dared to go there.

It blows my mind how the democrats are clinging to their party not even getting that its no longer a democratic party. They are the party that seem to take women for granted. And the womens' issue, which has become the democratic party's signature threat, has ceaselessly been thrown in our faces since Hillary suspended her campaign.

Are women threatened by Palin and her values? Do they think she's going to slip into the white house and tell us all that we have to live according to HER values? Her value are hers. My values are mine. Neither of us are wrong.

Palin and I are the same age. I can relate to the possibility that the woman's movement before us made it difficult for us to navigate our future by pushing us into uncharted waters. Feminist broke ground on women's rights and equality but what that initially looked like for me was that we had to learn how to become a man to survive in the world. Suddenly wearing a tie was fashionable for women.

In light of this, Palin navigated her life according to her values. It may not be what the feminists before her had in mind, but Palin's values are hers and she is not obligated to adhere to feminists' values even though she is a product of their movement.

Likewise... while I appreciate what the feminists have done for women, they do not speak for me on what I value. We may agree on principle, but you cannot force your values onto me. This is where I draw the line.

In an LA Times article dated September 4, Gloria Steinem tears into the republican party and even attacks Palin by saying "Palin's value to those patriarchs is clear: She opposes just about every issue that women support by a majority or plurality." Excuse me? I am tired of this woman telling the world what women value. Steinem has no idea what I value.

Isn't it time for another look at what women value? We may be surprised to find that what we value is the integrity of our feminity. Being a woman is not a weakness. We don't need strap-ons. A woman who is true to herself is powerful. We don't need to fear men or "patriarchs" to stand for something we believe in. And we don't need to tote around the book of "the Art of emasculating men" anymore.

Bottom line, I refuse to vote based on those "matriarchs" spreading fear and hate on behalf of a party that allowed the media and the Obama campaign to stomp on women in the first place. That's like saying to a woman that she must remain in a marriage that abuses her because someone "out there" needs to reserve her right to forego the use of a condom. THAT'S INSANITY.

Therefore, I will not be calling the media to smear a woman who navigated those uncharted waters effectively. I applaud Palin and her value system whether I align with them or not.

Steinem needs to put her pen down and listen to the 18 million voices that did not get heard, then speak from there.

Hillary Clinton for Senate Majority Leader


The DNC may have undermined 18,000,000 voters...

...but we can do our best to make sure that the DSCC and the Senate don't do the same.

Please contact the DSCC and tell them you want Hillary Clinton as their leader in January:

http://www.dscc.org/content?content_item_KEY=1442

Like LBJ in the late 1950s, Hillary Clinton can lead this country from that seat of power... and we 18,000,000 will have our voices better served and respected.
