How in the hell are we ever
supposed to know the truth. So Randi Rhodes is giving Clinton a pass for building a prison camp in 2000 at Git Mo and Clinton giving the contract to HALI BURTON. I say NO PASS FOR CLINTON. Are we supposed to be fair or are we supposed to be partisan. What the hell are the rules and why are we so afraid to look carefully at one of our own? I personally do NOT believe that 9-11 was an outside attack. I think our gov. did it and they built git mo in 2000 in preparation for the "attack".

Now I'm not only confused I'm pissed. Anyone have a positive thing to say about this? :wtf:

3. I'm with you on this. We must be honest if we want to Progress!
We have to do better than previous generations, including my own Baby Boomers, who hide from the truth about themselves over and over. We should show that we are strong enough to see ourselves honestly and respond appropriately and strategically to our strengths and weaknesses.

5. I've never heard about Geneva Conventions violations...
Edited on Tue Jun-14-05 05:49 PM by Kraklen
under Clinton, or any other sort of human rights violations that I can think of off the top of my head. He was involved with the capture of evil genocidal dictators such as Milosevic. Is it possible he set up a camp at Gitmo without ever intending it to be the gulag it is now? Certainly.

8. Well you know I think I'm feeling really afraid
I think that there is so much we don't know. I want to be fair but I really want Bush to go to jail. I don't want Clinton to be guilty of anything. It just suddenly got to me. Suddenly scared the crap out of me.

6. I say let's be fair
if we aren't fair and honest about our own how are we any better than them? Take the high road. I have always loved Clinton but he did some stupid shit too.

7. Clinton deserves a pass because...
the repubs will throw him under the bus as much as they can without a fellow democrat's help. There's where we are faultering. Dems are too objective sometimes to the point that they actually GIVE republicans fuel to spin.

Sometimes you need to just allow a bye with the justification of "The President being Presidential."
