will Republicans still bring up the failings of Bill Clinton? It seems the super-Bush supporters always bring up Bill and the mess he made after all these years. I wonder if that will still be what they bring up if they need to defend another Republican in office.

BELLEVUE, WA – New York Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton supports giving drivers’ licenses to illegal aliens, but she opposes right-to-carry statutes that provide concealed carry licenses for law-abiding American citizens and others who are here legally, the Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms said today.

“Based on her comments during Tuesday night’s debate,” said CCRKBA Chairman Alan Gottlieb, “Sen. Clinton must think people in this country illegally are entitled to greater rights than citizens and others who are here legally. Maybe it’s because she knows that illegal aliens would vote for her, while law-abiding American gun owners won’t.”

Gottlieb noted that Mrs. Clinton was the only presidential candidate, either Republican or Democrat, who ignored an invitation to appear at the recent Gun Rights Policy Conference in Ft. Mitchell, Kentucky, near Cincinnati. The annual conference is co-sponsored by CCRKBA and the Second Amendment Foundation.

“Every other candidate, both Republican and Democrat, either attended, called or sent their regrets that they could not attend,” Gottlieb said, “but Mrs. Clinton simply blew off the opportunity to speak to a representative cross-section of America’s 80 million gun-owning voters. Is it possible she doesn’t think she may need some of those 80 million votes, if she gets her party’s nomination?

“It is clear she wants special priveleges for illegal immigrants, yet she opposes allowing American citizens to carry firearms to protect themselves from illegal aliens and others who commit violent crimes,” he said.

“Since Hillary Clinton moved out of the White House early, so she could run for the Senate from New York as an obvious stepping stone toward her own run for the Oval Office,” Gottlieb stated, “she has supported every gun control measure to come along. She supports registration and licensing, she supports banning sport-utility rifles and magazine restrictions and she opposed legislation to prevent junk harassment lawsuits against the firearms industry. “Hillary Clinton, like too many of her Democrat colleagues, has given mere lip service to gun owners with vague claims that she ‘supports’ the Second Amendment,” Gottlieb said. “It now appears that she is more interested in the welfare of people who don’t belong in this country, than in the civil rights of people who do belong here.” http://www.ccrkba.org/pub/rkba/press-releases/hillary.aliens.htm

hunting, fishing, & cars. He is a very good family man, provides for his family, hard worker, participates in daughter's activities like band, volunteers in what he can. First time my family deals with this sort of thing & we don't know what will go on and what if the atty we hired is good or not. Does any one know on how to check out attys; there experiences w/criminal law..etc...?? Never had need for any kind of attys. In other words, we are so green in this dept., if u know what I mean. Federal prosecutor says he might do a long time in prison. That scares us alot. He has a wife an a daughter that are so worried. The wife had to be under doctors supervision & meds. I would appreciate very much if anyone had had an experience like this or if there is an atty out there that might tell me the outcome. We are very worried. All of your help needed. :) My pre-thanks

I'm speaking specifically about all the garbage repeated here about the Clintons, particularly Hillary Clinton, on a regular basis. I understand not supporting her, that's your prerogative. But why is it when people bring up the following - things that have been thoroughly debunked and proven false - otherwise seemingly intelligent posters jump right on board? Do you not CARE that they are false or is it okay because as long as it smears the Clintons it's all good?

* Clinton Hit List
* Stealing white house china and silverware
* Wouldn't allow military to wear uniforms in the White House
* Black Panther story

There's more of course, but let's stick with those four for now. Want to see the proof that they are false? Just ask and I'll be happy to post the evidence.

Yet so many of these people are the ones who demand proof when people post charges against George Bush, but they don't mind accepting b.s. as the God's truth when it's about the Clintons.

I was reading in my local paper how a party got busted. Some were under 18, some 18, 19, and 20, and a couple over 21. It seems that the 18-20 years olds got the short end of the stick. They got charged with underage drinking and contributing to the deliquency of a minor. This means they will receive a greater punishment/fines than those over 21 who were only charged with contributing. Is this the law in most states in the U.S.? Do you feel this is fair? Don't get me wrong, they were breaking the law - but, come on...

There are massive chunks of middle America where everyone votes straight Republican, and vice versa for large parts of California and New York. Should we all just move to random locations to prevent this? maybe our society would become more civil and Democratic.

This marriage counsellor while saying don't hit hard the wives admits that children can be beaten severely
""He must beat her where it will not leave marks. He should not beat her on the hand... He should beat her in some places where it will not cause any damage. He should not beat her like he would beat an animal or a child -- slapping them right and left."
