As Hillary's voting record has been pro-Bush all the way, why do Dems support her?

Question

And Bush supporters shun her?

Answer 1

LOL, Chi Guy I've been wondering the same thing. Hillary is another neo-con. IT's pretty obvious these days. The other thing I don't get is why do the Dems keep voting to give Bush everything he wants including the position that Murkesy was up for: Attorney General. HELLO, torture is already a crime in this country, why in the world does congress have to pass a new law against torture before Murkesy challenges Bush on it? And, yet, Schumer and Feinstein voted for him. Feinstein's husband is making millions and millions off this war in Iraq with government funded contracts with the military. I think this is as much of a conflict of interest as Cheney's involvement with Halliburton and Bush's involvement with Enron. They are all disgusting dispite what party they belong to. I say the people in this country should start petitions to have recall elections on the Dems and Reps. Their poll numbers are so low because the American people are screaming for impeachment, yet the Dems are giving Bush everything he wants.
Anyone who thinks this is a liberal vs. conservative issue anymore is completely clueless. We have one party with 2 wings and they all work for the corporations that pay for their elections. And, we're getting the illusion that there is a difference when in fact, there is no difference.

Answer 2

Now here's a good question! I've never liked her. I'm no fan of Bill, but he's a lot more likable than she is any day. Further, she may have a pro-Bush voting record, but she'd never admit that or give some excuse of why it happened that way. I'd admire her more if she'd actually admit it and say because she thought it was the right way to go at the time and leave it at that, but you know that won't happen.

Answer 3

You know what makes me laugh? That Republicans call her a liberal Marxist who wants defeat in Iraq. She voted for the war and has voted for many bills funding the war. She has even stated that if President she won't withdraw all troops from Iraq. Clinton used to be a Republican! She was the President of College Republicans and a Goldwater girl. She isn't a liberal. Conservatives need to realize that. Clinton is disliked by people on both sides of the field. I've talked to liberals who regard her as a neo-conservative and won't vote for her. She is a woman without a camp.

Answer 4

shes not been pro-bush, shes been doing whatever the polls say she should, then changing her tune whenever the polls show she did the wrong thing.

shes a flip-flopper to the nth degree. i dont know why anyone would bother listening to her, check the polls and thats what shes going to go support.

Answer 5

She does not vote pro-bush, she votes which ever way the wind blows, if it so happens sometimes the votes are the same as what bush wants its a coincidence short lived and not like the rest of her voting.

She is a liberal low life.

Answer 6

Hillary, does seem to appear to flip flap back and forth over the issues. She seems go one way one minute, than the next minutes, depending on who is asking, she goes the other way.

Answer 7

Her voting record is a scam to make people believe she is more middle of the road or conservative. Liberals don't care how she votes they just drool all over themselves because she is married to Slick Willy and her last name is Clinton. Truly she is a socialist at heart and that is why conservatives can't stand her.

Answer 8

The idiots vote for most likely candidates within their party. I can't stand that....just pick the most qualified...forget party lines people!

Answer 9

Ummm...at least she votes beyond her own party lines.

LOL...she's not pro-Bush. Just pro-whatever will get her ahead.

Answer 10

Hillary Rodham Clinton is strongly pro-abortion. In 2005 she voted 100 percent of the time with pro-abortion NARAL and 0 percent of the time with the National Right to Life Committee. For example, she voted:
AGAINST banning partial birth abortions
AGAINST the Child Custody Protection Act. In other words, she did not vote to stop adults from taking teens across state lines in order to obtain abortions without their parents' knowledge.
FOR embryonic stem cell research
FOR permitting abortions in military hospitals - abortions paid for by taxpayers.
FOR the Senate immigration reform bill, but voted
AGAINST an amendment to require border enforcement before granting amnesty to illegals.
AGAINST an amendment to protect Social Security from being used fraudulently by illegals.
FOR an amendment to stop courts from deporting illegals.
AGAINST the Class Action Fairness Act, which sought to curb the rise of litigation against small businesses.
AGAINST the creation of small-business health plans "through which small companies could band together to buy insurance for their employees."
FOR emergency funds for Iraq and Afghanistan.
AGAINST military commissions for trying unlawful combatants. This is a bill that John McCain(R-AZ) and Lindsey Graham(R-SC) - big advocates of fair treatment for Guantanamo Bay detainees - agreed to as good for national security while upholding basic human rights.
AGAINST a constitutional ban on flag burning.

She does not shy away from government spending. In 2005, she earned a rating of 9 (out of 100) by the National Taxpayers Union, an organization that, "Seeks to reduce government spending, cut taxes, and protect the rights of taxpayers." She was only slightly less wasteful than big spenders Patty Murray(D-WA), John Kerry(D-MA) and Ted Kennedy(D-MA), who all received ratings of 7. Hillary was less frugal with taxpayer money than even Chuck Schumer (D-NY) and Steny Hoyer (D-MD) who both earned a score of 13. In comparison, Trent Lott (R-MS) received a 70 and John Kyl (R-AZ) received an 87.
