NY Licenses for Illegals withers under bright light |
|
|
New York Gov. Eliot Spitzer's plan to issue driver's licenses to illegal immigrants has brought too much publicity for him to continue with the plan.
Prior to Hillary's non-answer to a debate question, the plan was flying conveniently under the radar.
Now, with nationwide awareness of the plan and its implications for fraudulent voting and leveraging into other forms of identification, New York is dropping the plan. Without Hillary's flubbed response to the initial question of whether she supported her governor's plan, it seemed like a sure bet for success.
A sure sign that something is wrong in government is when publicity alone is sufficient to completely destroy an accepted initiative.

Hillary Campaign Reflects Control Personality |
|
|
The various points that have emerged in recent days from Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign yield an interesting pattern.The pattern I see in the above are the need to control the world around her and a willingness to play a bit dirty to ensure that her wishes are honored.
In addition to the recent news above there have been countless other examples including recent reports about Bill attempting to arrange for the spiking of a story at Vanity Fair.
The image of Hillary that seems to emerge from this is a hyper-sensitive woman who, mostly through the people around her, attempts to control the terms of the debate and even the news itself. Openness, transparancy, and straight talk are the exact opposite of what Hillary delivers. |

Wolf warned to go easy on Hillary |
|
|
According to the Drudge Report, Clinton campaign staff have dropped 'suggestions' that CNN's Wolf Blitzer should avoid pulling "a Russert" in the upcoming debate. They were, of course, referring to Tim Russert's repeated failed attempts to get a straight answer from Hillary in the last Democratic debate.
"This campaign is about issues, not on who we can bring down and destroy," the Clinton insider said.
Evidently, asking a follow-up question of Hillary after she has been quite firm in side-stepping a question is not just off limits, but will now be branded as an attempt to "destroy" Hillary.
Whether Mr. Blitzer folds in fear of such a warning remains to be seen.
Unfortunately for the Clinton campaign, John Edwards, Barack Obama, Chris Dodd, and perhaps other candidates, will certainly not be intimidated. |

Lieberman calls Democrats paranoid |
|
|
Senator Joe Lieberman referred to the Democrat party base as "politically paranoid" and "hyper-partisan", then said a few words about his comrades in Congress:
“There is something profoundly wrong — something that should trouble all of us — when we have elected Democratic officials who seem more worried about how the Bush administration might respond to Iran’s murder of our troops, than about the fact that Iran is murdering our troops.”
As evidence of major progress in the Iraq war accumulates, Democrats remain "emotionally invested in a narrative of defeat and retreat in Iraq," said Lieberman.
His next target was the Democratic presidential candidates who cater to the 'paranoid' liberal party base:
"There is likewise something profoundly wrong when we see candidates who are willing to pander to this politically paranoid, hyper-partisan sentiment in the Democratic base, even if it sends a message of weakness and division to the Iranian regime."
Until we get some form of official response from the paranoid wing of the Democrat party, we'll just have to wonder if it's Mr. Leiberman who is 'paranoid'. |
