Fortune Magazine---Hillary

[TnDem]

The latest cover of Fortune magazine:

[Nikki Stone1]

1. There's a good and bad cover all in one

Sigh.

[Annces]

2. She looks like a nun in regular clothes

and a mean business sense.

[Nikki Stone1]

3. A nun? I don't think so. But then I had a lot of years of nuns.

....

[spanone]

7. you too? 9 years of nuns for me. whew

[Nikki Stone1]

8. Up to 8th grade for me. And none of my nuns ever looked that good.

...

[Annces]

12. Prudishness combined with a little sadism

combined with razor sharp mind. I think many nuns with some of the reins of power have those qualities.

[Nikki Stone1]

19. Project much?

I think she looks pretty good, And I'm not even voting for her in the primaries!

[Annces]

20. No I am not projecting

I see things, big deal.

You can read all kinds of things from a person's face, especially a photo done by a good photographer. And artists often capture essential qualities of a person.

[Nikki Stone1]

25. So much of "reading" photos (and art) is projection

When I look at that cover, I see the face of the DLC. But then, I'm voting for Dennis.

[MH1]

6. Emphasis on "mean". n/t

[Independent Democrat]

27. I see she's picked up Bush's smirk.

[whistle]

4. That cover should make every conservative and neocon shudder

:rofl:

[Double T]

5. Spouse of Mr. NAFTA..............

NOW we know.....for sure. Glad to see the 2008 elections may exchange one corporatist president for another corporatist president; add that to the corporatist congress and 'WE' end up with 'business as usual'. There has to be ANOTHER WAY and DAMN IT, I'm going to find IT!!!

[Captain_Nemo]

9. hard to ignore corporations when they wield so much power.

[MedleyMisty]

10. So take their power away

[Captain_Nemo]

14. Their power has been built up since Reagan. I would think we would have to find out exactly

which corporations have the most power. and, then make sure the congresspeople don't kowtow to them. To me this is logical. the people have to change this problem. Clearly, we'd be much further ahead on solving global warming if the corporations didn't weild so much power. Clearly we wouldn't have melamine (sp?) in our food supply if corporatons didn't have so much power.
I would think that we have to be active citizens everyday rooting them out. Then, over time their power will have een taken away.

So which company do we start with?

[Double T]

15. The ONLY group that is being IGNORED is the American working middle class..........

and when politicians are willing to sellout their constituents for corporate campaign contributions, I question the motivations and character of that person.

[Captain_Nemo]

23. Who runs the country? The people or the politicians?

[Double T]

24. Both.

[Independent Democrat]

29. And people like the Clintons......

helped those corporations accumulate that power.

[Captain_Nemo]

30. I agree. But given the alternative to Clinton...I'm sticking with her. Obama will crumble under

republican attacks.

[Independent Democrat]

31. And Hillary won't crumble?

She has the highest negativity ratings out of anyone in this race. The GOP's base will turn out in droves to vote against her.....just because she's Hillary.

[Captain_Nemo]

32. I disagree. She's in the lead. She has never crumbled under the repubs. Obama has

already crumbled under Hillary.

[muntrv]

11. Warren Buffet praised her on Charlie Rose, saying that either she or Obama

would make a good president.

[HCE SuiGeneris]

13. That speaks volumes.

And utilizing everyone's favorite term :sarcasm: ... enuf said

[Matariki]

17. Really? Warren Buffet is generally a good guy, I think.

Anyway, he's leaving his fortunes to charity instead of his kids. That speaks volumes about him and his priorities.

[BeyondGeography]

16. Meet the new boss...

[Stephanie]

18. Sheesh. Who DIDN'T know?

21. She's going to look great sitting in the Oval Office as 44. NT

[Tierra_y_Libertad]

22. Birds of a feather...

[Independent Democrat]

26. Unfortunately for Hillary.......

She has to compete with Giuliani (and possibly Bloomberg) for Wall St.'s support.

[mitchum]

28. Johns often tell prostitutes that they love them...

and they may even sort of mean it
