Hillary vs. Karl
Since announcing that he will be stepping down at the end of the month, Karl Rove has publicly challenged Hillary Clinton's stance on different issues and her presidential campaign. Rove believes that Hillary will be the Democrat's nominee and stated that the public opinion of her is negative. For related articles click here.
Hillary says that Karl Rove is "obsessed" with her, and that she knows how to beat the "Republican attack machine." These retorts sound spiteful and unoriginal, much like a teenage spat. These comments will only solidify people's doubts about electing an emotional, bitter, possibly hormonal and definitely irrational woman. She is ridiculous.
Her website even came out with a public argument, in the form of a press release, engaging Rove and attempting to discount his talking points with poll results. Shouldn't a presidential candidate be above this sort of scuffle. After all, when putting yourself in the largest spotlight in the world, aren't all challenges and attacks on the table?
This shows great weakness in Hillary Clinton, and her campaign controllers. As this personal debate heats up, we will see the darker side of Hillary more and more. Hillary shall be unmasked.

Clinton and Obama's Personal Debate
What started at Monday's debate has only continued throughout the week into a juvenile name-calling match. Clinton said that Obama's idea of meeting one-on-one with hostile regime leaders in the first year of his presidency would be irresponsible and naive, and that it could lead to these nations using the American president for propaganda purposes. Later in the week Obama said that Hillary's authorization for the war in Iraq was irresponsible and naive. And there have been unoriginal blows from each candidate ever since.
"Each of them is trying to use it now to reinforce the overall message," said Mark Mellman, a Democratic consultant sitting out this election so far. "Clinton is saying this proves her greater experience and preparation for leadership, and that Obama is inexperienced. Obama is trying to say that her experience is what got us into the war. So they're both trying to use it to make a larger point about their overall messages." See Chicago Tribune article for more.
So, I guess until they kiss and make-up, they won't be able to run on the Clinton-Obama '08 ticket together. Darn.

Tonight's CNN/YouTube Debate: How Would the Muslim World Handle a Female President
It is not a matter of whether or not she will be taken seriously, by Arab and Muslim countries. Many of them have begun to adapt to the 21st century. It is our current Middle-East issues (Iraq, Iran, etc.) where she won't be respected or effective. Her reading off a global list of female leaders cannot make her anymore qualified to deal with backward, vicious dictators. Being an Islamic extremist is far different that being your typical male chauvinist. Here she may be told to "fetch me a beer, and bake me some cookies, woman." There it is more likely that she would be be-headed or our country attacked, being viewed as weak for electing a female.
Her self-righteous, better-than-thou attitude will not go far in the Middle East.

Hillary Calls on her YouTube Fans...
In a press release on Hillary Clinton's website today, she asked for her supporters to send in videos for the CNN/YouTube debate on July 23.
From Clinton's campaign website:
CNN/YouTube has asked all the candidates to create a thirty-second video to be aired during the debate. Clinton is asking her supporters to take on the assignment and submit their own videos, explaining to America why Hillary is their choice for President. http://www.hillaryclinton.com/news/release/view/?id=2353
Hillary is once again trying to exude a more relate-able persona, and interact with her supporters. She is trying to make people believe she cares, even about those of us whose lives are pretty much confined to the Internet. I just hope those poor YouTubers who send her adoring videos don't actually think that she will care about them after the election. After she gets their votes, they will be of no use to her and will be discarded, much like she will do with American babies.
Perhaps she is afraid of her campaign making an "all-about-Hillary" video, because whatever issues she discusses in said video, will be questioned. Her instability on issues will be brought to the forefront once again and that is not something she is ready to back up. She could just say, "I am human" and at least most Democrats would forgive her. But she's not human, she is some sort of socialistic gremlin whose sincerity stops at her loathing for everything conservative.

Hillary WILL Raise Taxes, don't worry its a Patriotic Tax Hike!
In the last Democratic Presidential debate Senator Hillary Clinton spoke once again about raising taxes for the wealthy in America. She said, "We have to change the tax system and we've got to get back to having those with the most contribute to this country." It sounds to me like she is saying that wealthy Americans do not contribute to society. Perhaps she doesn't think that the jobs they create, their philanthropic endeavors, and the taxes they pay are just quite enough. Maybe since they have been fortunate enough to be considered "wealthy" she would like to just strip them of their fortune to fatten up government bureaucracy...oh wait, that is what she is trying to do.
Hillary has surrounded herself with people like Warren Buffett, who referred to Republicans as the type who think, "I'm making $80 million a year, God must have intended me to have a lower tax rate." You must be right Mr. Buffett, that is how Republicans think. Hillary described Buffett as, "He's honest enough to say, look, tax me because I'm a patriotic American." This sounds like she is describing someone who is not all there in the head.
What these hate-the-world/save-the-world people have yet to realize is that successful businessmen do pay taxes, they pay more than I do. Middle-class Americans, like myself, will be encouraged to despise wealthy Americans if Hillary's influence succeeds. Though the wealthy pay more taxes than the rest of us, she wants us to think that they don't. It doesn't sound to me like she really wants to unite Americans, so much as pin them against each other.
I personally believe that we all pay too many taxes. I think that people would be more inclined to give money to causes if they weren't forced to do so. The more that is taken away from us, the less we will give, and this is doubly so for the wealthy Americans who are more philanthropic than I am.
