Comments: Why Is Rummy Interested In Hillary's Financial Records?

WTF?

I think this is called a warning shot by them Department o' D-fense types.

Maybe Hillary will wise up and stop triangulating and start going for the jugular.

Probably not.

Doesn't the Defense Dept have more important things to focus on like, say, oh, I don't know: IRAQ?

Ya know what I find hysterical, hypocritical, ironical, paradoxical, and idiotical?

It's when Steve Al-Soto, pissymiss or someone else puts up a post along with the tag line "It's your constitutional right to free speech. So use it"...and then they ban commenters who they don't agree with.

I don't think they grasp the concept.

What's the difference between the Bush Administration and the KGB?


(This is not a joke. Just a question that needs some pondering)

Rummy's checking to see how much the Clintoons got from the Chinese Red Army for the military secrets they sold them.

It's Soto's right as proprietor of this site to remove useless wastes of bandwith, a category under which the vast majority of your shiteating posts would fall.

I guess worrying about our guys getting killed and blown up is too mundane.

I'm still wondering why Evita hasn't written a book on how to trade cattle futures. She is the most successful futures trader I've ever heard of. A futures trading genious! She turned $1000 into $100,000 trading cattle futures. Holy mackeral!

I'm sure we'll take a look at this more in 2008.

that sounds like a lot, *uckdog, but it's chump change compared to what Cheney has made from his Halliburton stock, or Frist from his 'blind trust' in HCI, or Shrub's return on his Texas Rangers investment, for that matter...

and it's spelled 'genius,' genius.

Have any of you ever seen or read the NY Post? Only one or two steps below the National Enquirer in terms of insanity. Don't believe it.

Possibly, he wants to get to know his future boss?

DW, cha-ching! Nicely done.

Love the way Muckdog keeps inserting comments off topic and of no interest.

Ignore Dipshit (God, what an appropriate name). He has no idea what he is talking about.

muckdog cited this above but mrs clinton's cattle futures trading escapade is utterly and completely unbelievable. it lacks all credibility........she turned 1000 into 101,000 in the space of about nine months......annualize that and see what your rate of return looks like......i wonder what mr soros would say if someone walked into his office and suggested that they had that type of success in that period of time.....he would chortle loudly and send her away........what always interested me about the story is that she walked away from the table without ever really losing. the story might have carried a scintilla of credibility if she had been at 130,000 and then pissed away a chunk of her stake and then said my run of good fortune has ended and it is time to fold my cards....no one with any trading sense would ever quit playing when that far ahead.....separately,when she had her famous pink suit news conference from the white house she averred that she was sucessful because she read the wall street journal.....if you think you are gonna make money today against huge cattle ranchers and the likes of mcdonalds in the cattle futures pits by reading yesterday's news,then u r smoking rope or are steered by the hand of divine providence.....the bottom line is that it never ever happened that way and the clintons likely took a bribe from some unsavory characters in little rock..........i voted for bill in 92 but went off his line in 96 on account of this fable.there are other candidates in the queque who do not carry the same impedimenta as the junior senator from ny.....hopefully,one of them will come to the fore . jjj

What could possibly still be hidden on the Clintons?

Judith: "North Country" is based on the true story of the first class action sexual harassment lawsuit in the country. It involved the first female miners trying to make a living along side rednecks in Minnesota. Excellent DVD staring Charlene Theron, from "Monster" fame.

In the special features, the real miners are interviewed. A must see for anyone interested in women's rights, and all the little piggies out there.

Pentagon Probe Of Hill Routine
By Ian Bishop
New York Post
April 7, 2006


April 7, 2006 -- WASHINGTON - Mystery solved: Pentagon officials say a top aide was rifling through Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton's financial records last month as part of a yearly background check for her role on a military advisory group.

But Senate records show the search marked the first time the Defense Department checked out the former first lady's cash history - two years after she joined the military's Transformation Advisory Group.

U.S. Joint Forces Command officials last month also reviewed the cash and investment records of Reps. Harold Ford (D-Tenn.) and Mac Thornberry (R-Texas).

Clinton, Ford and Thornberry are the lone lawmakers sitting on a Joint Forces Command advisory group devoted to helping the armed forces improve coordination between the service branches.

As part of the straightforward background check, Pentagon officials reviewed Clinton's investments and book royalties.

I love the smell of Reich Wing flop sweat in the morning!

You know they're at their wits' end when they start dragging this crap out again. None of it comes close to using the government as your personal tool to get dirt on your opponents. Which is what Rummy has been caught doing yet again, and what is trying to be dragged off the radar with these straw men. Isn't it interesting, how many things need to be downplayed these days?

Maybe we can start looking into the Rostenowski finances, too. And start up the investigation into Jim Wright's misdeeds. And, didn't Carter say he's committed adultery in his heart? I'm sure we could look into that, too, and spend all sort of taxpayer dollars on another snipe hunt.
