Cookie Primary Results!
Bill Richardson's Biscochito Recipe Wins First Place!

MANCHESTER, New Hampshire (December 14, 2007) -- Judges today named Democratic presidential candidate Bill Richardson's biscochitos, New Mexico's official state cookies, the winning cookie in Yankee Magazine's first-in-the-nation New Hampshire Primary Cookie Contest. Republican presidential candidate Ron Paul won the online "popular" vote, with 93 percent of the more than 9,800 votes, with Mrs. Paul's recipe for apricot–coconut balls.

Cookies were baked by culinary students at Southern New Hampshire University. Nine judges determined the winning cookie based on taste, appearance, and originality. The online vote was open to the general public and ran for three weeks.

11. Bill looks like a guy who knows a good cookie when he sees it.
Nothing wrong with a politician who looks like America--and has the plus sized relaxed fit jeans to prove it.

I know of at least two restaurants in Santa Fe and Northern New Mexico that have incredible food, that have autographed photos of him in the restaurant somewhere.

21. Why didn't Henry A. Kissinger endorse the 'water boy'? After all
he carried Henry's water, didn't he? John McCain has clot with Kissinger and his sleaze is understandable?


KISSINGER, McLARTY & RICHARDSON


Three Combine in Compact of Ethically Challenged

(Washington, DC) Judicial Watch, the public interest law firm that investigates and prosecutes public abuse and corruption, has “watched” with concern the evolution of Kissinger Associates, which now also includes as “name partners,” former Clinton-Gore White House Chief of Staff Thomas F. “Mack” McLarty and former Clinton-Gore United Nations Ambassador and Energy Secretary Bill Richardson. This “threesome” represents the lowest of ethical standards, even by modern American norms. For example, Henry Kissinger not only consorted with Richard Nixon over break-in’s of public interest and other groups, he tapped the telephone lines of fellow White House associates. Mack McLarty was in charge of The White House during Filegate and Travelgate, and lied to Judicial Watch during his deposition – feigning memory loss. Bill Richardson tried to bribe Monica Lewinsky with a U.N. job to keep her quiet about her relationship with President Bill Clinton, and then presided over an attempted coverup of the Los Alamos nuclear scandal, among other matters. “The firm of Kissinger, McLarty & Richardson epitomizes Washington, D.C. at its worst – sleazy ex-administration officials, feeding off special influence and power and then pretending, with the help of their enablers, to be fine, upstanding and respected gentlemen. Judicial Watch will ‘watch’ closely their activities and take action whenever warranted. Today, we will be filing Freedom of Information Act requests to learn about their activities in the recent past,” stated Judicial Watch Chairman and General Counsel Larry Klayman.
