Clinton: Bush presidency 'most radical' in history (Chicago Trib)
By Rick Pearson
Tribune political reporter
Published July 15, 2007, 4:32 PM CDT

~snip~ "In the last six and a half years we have seen a dangerous experiment in extremism in the White House," she said. "President Bush campaigned as a compassionate conservative. It turns out he is neither. He has proven that time and time again. I would argue that his is the most radical presidency we have ever had. You can look at nearly any aspect of our life here at home, in the nation or around the world." ~snip~

<Obama> contended the White House "pardons injustice and perverts our laws to protect their friends and interests" and cited Bush's recent commutation of the prison sentence of Lewis "Scooter" Libby ... "People are tired of Scooter Libby justice," Obama maintained. ~snip~

"It's not enough for you to like a candidate. It's not even enough for you to agree with a candidate," Edwards said. "We must, my party, the Democratic Party, we must nominate a candidate who will win the general election." ~snip~

"There are candidates projecting themselves for change. Some are projecting themselves for experience. And I believe I bring to the table change and experience," Richardson said. ~snip~

3. It makes sense, her being angry that Bush ran as a compassionate conservative.
After all, she actually IS one.

2. Yawn. Hillary restating the obvious and finally admitting what most of us have known
for a long time.

Always behind the curve, Hillary is.

4. Whre has she been? Most of us knew that 7 years ago.
I really wonder if she has the ability to be President. I really question her judgment. She consistently makes bad decisions and states the obvious seven years too late.
