Hillary is proving herself to be a good Goldwater Republican.
These are the facts:

1. Hillary supports importing foreign workers to take good paying American jobs via increasing H1B visas. She lies in this video about not having enough skilled American workers to fill these jobs.

2. Hillary voted to give Bush authority to go into Iraq in 2002, and echos his explanations. Here's a recent article.

3. Hillary voted to give Bush authority to go into Iran in 2007.

4. She is supported by the Military Industrial Complex.

and this one

5. Most importantly, Hillary is a proud supporter of the man who succeeded Barry Goldwater: Republican Presidential Nominee John McCain

and

I wonder if there is any truth to the rumor that Hillary is currently in discussions with McCain to take the VP slot on the Republican ticket?

1. Senator Clinton didn't endorse McCain.
Try again.

8. It is disloyal to the Democratic Party to suggest that McCain would be a better commander-in-chief
than Obama. McCain is a nut job, and any suggestion to the contrary is idiocy no matter how HRC supporters want to spin it.

9. Is there evidence that Obama is responsible for "whipping his base to riots in Denver"?
Or was that just some wacko post from last night here on DU?

Btw, I'm still reading some of those links you passed on about the Texas caucuses. Some linked to videos, and I was able to watch a few so far. The ones I watched so far showed a high turnout of caucus goers, some disorganization due to high turnout and inexperienced volunteers, but the ones I watched really didn't show any horrible problems as you described. (I still have more to watch) I have read one of the news articles. The blogs I tended to skip over because of lack of documentation and obvious bias. I will, though, continue to read and see what exactly was reported as far as problems, especially in relation to whether it was just all Obama supporters who were 'messing with the caucuses.' One of the articles I read had complaints from both sides. So, thanks for the info. Have you watched any of the videos? Many can be found here:

6. Another straw man non issue from Obama supporter...
Just admit it, Obamas whole campaign is based on hating Hillary.

7. Well, like you I supported Edwards, and have done so for years.
Now we have another choice to make: (a) more of the same, especially a nation run by and for the MIC, or (b) breaking the 65 year stranglehold of the MIC on US policies and our economy.

Do the research. Think about it. That's all I ask.
