Clinton warns of "False Hope."
False Hope. Is that where Bush is Evil Incarnate while everyone is running for office. Then the second everyone is elected suddenly Impeachment Is Off The Table. Is that False Hope? Because if it is. We know alllllll about THAT. Except that we tend to call it getting screwed.

3. No wonder most of you hate the Clintons - you see them as

Bushes. As sophisticated as I know some of you are, most see Hillary and the best president we've had since FDR as Bush teammates. Since you've brought impeachment up, I must assume and I go back years that nost of you believe Clinton failed to go after Bush when he won the White House in 1993.And how did that work out for Bill? They repaid his nice-guy gesture with impeachment for no damn reason.

So what makes you think if Obama is elected he will spend his 'honeymoon' political capital to go after Bush's crimes? I predict if there is a President Obama, he too will ignore the past just as Bill did because the first days of your presidency shouldn't be about "gotcha!"

I have cash money that says if there is a President Obama, he will ignore Bush's BIG crimes the way Clinton ignored Bush 41's smaller crimes, and this is after impeachment. If this is the case then most wanted Clinton to see 5 years into the future and act on it, but I think you'll give Obama a pass on not going after Bush 43's greater crimes after the fact. That's illlogical.(bartcop)

4. I'm SURE you're right.
If Obama gets elected, he's going to try and play "uniter not divider". Garunteed. This is a reason I like Hillary, she's been a victim of that machine and she will take serious actions to prevent it from continuing, if not give some paypack where its due.

11. Why do you want vengeance from a president???
The next president has better things to do than settle old scores.

12. Now about Obama going after Bush.
Please don't call me racists. I'm not one of those Wizards. But in all honesty. I have a hard time seeing a black man helping to cover up the crimes of a Good Ole Boy. That's a real what is wrong with this picture moment for me. I can see Obama trying to restore Colin Powells honor by going after Bush & Cheney. Both Obama and Clinton will have to overcome the age old sterotypes to prove that they can handle the responsibilities of the office. Including being the nations top law enforcement official. It's not about Honeymoons and gotcha. It's simply about living up to the oath and enforcing the law. The question is can they do the job as provided for in the US Constitution? But in all reality I fully expect both Obama and Clinton to run on platforms of change. Then the second they set foot in the White House. They will bow down to pay homage and tribute to the great God Status Quo.

10. Isn't that a "Hee Haw" song??
"Blues dispair and agony on me. (whoooooooa)
Deep dark depression, excessive misery (whooooooa)
If it weren't for false hope, I'd have no hope at all.
Blues, dispair and agony on me."
