1. What kind of source is this? I so don't believe it! nt

[rinsd]

3. Its a rw newspaper quoting Josh Bolton.

[rinsd]

2. Nice rw rag ya got there, BD. BTW source for Hill info = Josh Bolton which means its worthless.

[pnwmom]

4. This is the Bush spin.

And Bush has always been trying to lock-in his successor on Iraq. That doesn't mean he'll succeed.

[dsc]

5. Congradulations

You found the article with the most dishonest headline I have seen in ages. The article makes it crystal clear that all candidates are getting this advice and gives no evidence whatsoever that Hillary, or anyone else for that matter, is taking the advice. Great job finding such a misleading article.

[illinoisprogressive]

6. Legit newspaper. this is really bad and needs to be known.

[rinsd]

18. Um it is a rw rag author's rw rag book published by Regenry & also says Bush is advising Obama.

"In an interview for the new book “The Evangelical President,” White Ho advising Obama. Still want to cling to that Hillary attack? use Chief of Staff Josh Bolten said Bush has “been urging candidates: ‘Don’t get yourself too locked in where you stand right now. If you end up sitting where I sit, things could change dramatically.’ ”

It then goes on to mention Obama several times.

Still want to cling to this BS Hillary slam?

[William769]

29. You make him proud. Keep up the good work!

[ronnykmarshall]

40. Do live in San Francisco?

Of course anything that bashes Hillary is OK in your book.

Sorry hon, but Ethel got busted today for the same bullshiut.

The SF EX is fucking trash.

But you don't give a shit.

The god damn supermarket tabs could post shit about her and you'd happy to spread it.

[bigdarryl]

7. Every thing i post is not RIGHTWING JESUS!!!!!

[illinoisprogressive]

8. BD, this is a real newpaper. Not a rag.

[ronnykmarshall]

42. Bullshit.

Again do YOU live in SF? I did and know what the SF Ex has become. Pure trash.

[Cameron27]

9. Nothing you post should be from RW sources.

[rinsd]

10. Well this is rw, BD and the fact that it fellates Bush should have been your first clue

But you saw a chance to slam Hillary and went for it.

This isn't the first time you've done this either.

[illinoisprogressive]

12. It's the louisville regular newspaper. It is not any wing.

[ElizabethDC]

14. Most newspapers, even the "regular" ones, have a "wing." n/t

[rinsd]

23. LOL. Its Bill Sammon! He writes books lauding * and attacking Democrats

Here's a link. http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php?title=Bill_Sammon

[ElizabethDC]

11. No, but a lot of it is. n/t

[illinoisprogressive]

15. If you don't like a story doesn't mean it's rw or something.

[ElizabethDC]

20. No, of course not. But that doesn't mean that there aren't right-wing publications. n/t

[rinsd]

24. But Bill Sammon is the author and Bill Sammon is a rw douche bag of the highest order (nt)

[maddezmom]

28. I think if you research the author of the book, you'll realize he's not a friend of Dems

16. You lost total credibility with me when you proclaimed

that you would never vote for a "female". Nice try.

[William769]

25. But everything you post is highly suspect.

And for good reason.

[superkia]

34. If it is true it makes sense why she changed her tune on war.

A few months ago she sounded very convincing about getting our troops out of harms way.

As a result of these failures, the next President will inherit some of the greatest foreign policy challenges in our history. Rising terrorism and extremism. Frayed alliances. And the increasingly difficult task of restoring American leadership in a world that has come to view our nation with suspicion and mistrust.

We cannot effectively address any of these challenges if we continue our military engagement in Iraq. As long as we stay there, our military strength will continue to erode. Our standing in the world will continue to decline. Our enemies in the region will continue to exploit our failures. Our occupation will continue to serve as a recruitment tool for terrorists. Our support for Afghan democracy, our conflict with the Taliban, and our hunt for al Qaeda will continue to be compromised. And our brave men and women will continue to lose their lives and suffer grievous wounds.


NOW AFTER THE SUNDAY TALK SHOWS, SHE SOUNDS MORE LIKE BUSH. IT NOW DEPENDS ON HOW THINGS ARE?

Asked by ABC's George Stephanopoulos whether she would withdraw all U.S. troops from Iraq during a first term as president, Clinton (D-N.Y.) gave a simple answer: She did not know.

but she used more than 225 words to say so. "You know, I'm not going to get into hypotheticals and make pledges, because I don't know what I'm going to inherit, George. I don't know and neither do any of us know what will be the situation in the region. How much more aggressive will Iran have become?" Clinton said. "What will be happening in the Middle East? How much more of an influence will the chaos in Iraq have in terms of what's going on in the greater region? Will we have pushed al-Qaeda in Iraq out of their strongholds with our new partnership with some of the tribal sheiks or will they have regrouped and retrenched?"


I am very worried that America is being duped and we will continue to see innocent lives lost over oil. This is really sad that she would go from we must get out to I dont know? Also in the first quote she says "the next President will inherit some of the greatest foreign policy challenges in our history.

Now she says "You know, I'm not going to get into hypotheticals and make pledges, because I don't know what I'm going to inherit, George.

Please Hillary Clinton, be honest with the American people so we can make informed judgments, not judgmments on spin. Our country's future is at stake!

[Jim Sagle]

13. This is just a crocka chickenshit bullshit from chickenshit bullshit artist Bill Sammon.

[FreakinDJ]

17. Depends which candidate

Bolten said Bush wants enough continuity in his Iraq policy that “even a Democratic president would be in a position to sustain a legitimate presence there.”

I don't think they are all foolish enough to buy into Bush's Bull

[Xipe Totec]

19. He's also giving advice on chewing pretzels and riding bikes n/t

[William769]

26. and don't forget reading.

[rodeodance]

21. This is an article I expect to see on freeper land sites!

[JuniperLea]

22. I'll take my five minutes back now...

You owe me.

[Kagemusha]

27. Well they sure are acting as if they're taking that advice.

I just think it's arrogant for the WH to think that it has anything to do with them.

[Peregrine Took]

30. Its all about power. You're part of the power establishment or you're not.

The inner circle of both parties protects itself first and one another when they have to do so - to keep the "outsiders" out.

[Captain Hilts]

31. Candidates are given foreign policy briefings. Standard practice. nt

[Bitwit1234]

32. Oh dear, only Hillary Obama was't included after all he is a democrat isn't he.

[emilyg]

33. Shame on you bigdarryl

[SaveElmer]

35. BD quoting right wing smear merchants to bash Hillary? WHAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!

eom

[Old and In the Way]

36. bigdarryl - Hillarys scares you, doesn't she......

Interesting that you never promote a candidate, but you sure have got a negative fixation on her. Do you find her threatening, bigdarryl? :rofl:

[MODemocrat]

37. Big D, I've read so many negative Hillary posts of yours

I've never read this anywhere because the only websites I go to are progressive ones. If I want this
kind of induendos/lies, I'll just go to Freeperland. It's okay that you dislke Hillary, but for crying
out loud you don't need to make it so obvious by dredging up nonsense like this. :smoke: :boring:

Bush hates Hillary almost as much as you do, so why would he advise her? Furthermore, why would she even need his advice?

[Forkboy]

38. Good place to get your news.

:eyes:

[ronnykmarshall]

43. Go on with you !!

Godzilla/Rodan 2008!

[Myrina]

39. KO reported the same thing tonight, too

n/t

[Doctor_J]

41. Big, you spend WAAAAAAYYYY too much time reading and listening to

right wingers, and then posting it here. Are you a Bush voter?

[ripple]

44. Bogus source

There are plenty of legitimate reasons to be critical of a possible Hillary candidacy, without resorting to the RW media as a source.
