Here's ANOTHER one of Hillary Rodham Clinton's
Requests for Support ($$) in her Quest for the Throne
Check this out. Here's a letter that was sent to somebody that I know (to put it kindly) does not like Bill or Hillary. This person lives in Florida, yet is asked for SUPPORT so she can 'represent' the State of New York!! WHAT's WRONG WITH THIS PICTURE??!! :
(my comments are centered in bold)
June 21, 2000
I NEED YOUR IMMEDIATE SUPPORT AS A SENATE RACE FILLED WITH UNEXPECTED TURNS ENTERS AN ESPECIALLY CRITICAL PERIOD.
What was so unexpected? The fact that you're
LOSING the race? - Convincingly?!
FOLLOWING MAYOR RUDY GIULIANNI'S DECISION TO WITHDRAW FROM THE SENATE RACE, REPUBLICAN PARTY KINGMAKERS HAVE SELECTED REPRESENTATIVE RICK LAZIO.
REPUBLICAN PARTY KINGMAKERS?! I thought the last
KING in America got kicked out about 220 years ago. Oh,
perhaps you're referring to those "darling" KENNEDYs.
"America's Royalty". You KNOW they're all DEMOCRATS, right?
THIS CAMPAIGN IS NOT ABOUT ME OR MY OPPONENT. IT'S ABOUT CHOICES AND IDEAS THAT CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE IN PEOPLE'S LIVES. AND WHILE MY OPPONENT BEGAN HIS CAMPAIGN WITH PERSONAL ATTACKS -- I PROMISE TO KEEP MY FOCUS ON THE ISSUES BEFORE US.
Not about YOU? GIVE ME A BREAK! This is ALL about
"YOU". Why else would you run for the office of Senator
from New York? If you were sincere, you would want to
represent the State of Arkansas or Illinois -- you know,
places where you ACTUALLY LIVED. You're running in New
York because of the visibility and the chances you could
actually win because it's SUCH A LIBERAL STATE.
As far as "personal attacks" ... YOU were the one who
started that nonsense - we all saw and heard you. All
Rick Lazio has said about you and your ilk is the truth.
How stupid do you think we are? Well, some of us probably
are - I'm sure you'll get SOME votes from those New
Yorkers who want some of the LOOT you're promising.
I SUPPORT SCHOOL CONSTRUCTION LEGISLATION -- WE CANNOT LIFT OUR CHILDREN UP IF THEY GO TO SCHOOLS THAT ARE FALLING DOWN. MY OPPONENT HAS VOTED AGAINST THIS. WHICH MEANS MILLIONS OF DOLLARS IN SCHOOL CONSTRUCTION FOR NEW YORK COMMUNITIES.
Oh, that's very 'catchy'. I wouldn't go so far as to say clever.
You see, Mrs. Clinton, Mr. Lazio UNDERSTANDS that the federal
government is FORBIDDEN to stick it's nose where it doesn't belong.
You MUST HAVE read the Constitution in law school. Why can't you
understand this simple principle?
Also - how DUMB is it to ask for help from the people of FLORIDA
when you come right out and TELL THEM that you're going to try to
get as MUCH LOOT for NEW YORK from the "federal till" (that would be
out of the pockets of the rest of the American people) that you can?!!
I SUPPORT LICENSING AND REGISTRATION OF HANDGUNS - HE DOESN'T. HE HAS VOTED AGAINST THE RIGHT TO CHOOSE FOR LOW INCOME WOMEN, EVEN IN THE CASE OF RAPE AND INCEST. I WOULD NEVER VOTE THAT AWAY. I BELIEVE WE MUST CONTINUE ON THE PATH OF FISCAL RESPONSIBILITY THAT STRENGTHENED OUR ECONOMY - HE SUPPORTED THE $800 BILLION REPUBLICAN TAX CUT.
What is the purpose of licensing and registering
handguns? - especially when the U.S. Supreme Court
(Haynes v. U.S., 390 US 85, 1968) has unequivocally
ruled that CRIMINALS CANNOT BE LEGALLY REQUIRED TO
REGISTER THEIR FIREARMS, AND THEY CANNOT BE
CONVICTED FOR POSSESSING AN UNREGISTERED FIREARM.
Lazio DID NOT "VOTE AGAINST THE RIGHT TO CHOOSE FOR LOW
INCOME WOMEN". What a CROCK 'O CRAP you're peddling!
He merely ASSERTED that the rest of us SHOULDN'T HAVE TO
PAY for abortions for these women! By the way, that's some
"choice". Also - why don't you say "ABORTIONS"? Sounds
kinda NASTY, huh? By the way, there are about 1.25 MILLION
of them performed in the USA every year. So much for REALLY
caring about OUR CHILDREN!
If you really believe that we should continue on the path
of fiscal responsibility, then you should help Rick Lazio
win the election. After all, the economy really turn around
for the BETTER when the American people elected themselves
a REPUBLICAN Congress in 1994.
Here are some more facts for you -- did you know that in 1997
1% of the taxpayers paid one-third (33.2%) of all income taxes,
while earning 17.4% of the income? Did you know that the top 5%
of taxpayers paid 52% of the income taxes collected, yet earned
only 31.8 percent of the income? How about this? - the top 50% of
income earners pay 96% of the taxes!! That leaves the bottom 50%
paying a "whopping" 4 percent of the taxes. No wonder you can get people
to back you - THEY ARE PAYING ALMOST NOTHING! Then YOU have the
NERVE to WHINE when the taxpayers get SOME of their money back!
THE REPUBLICANS HAVE MADE IT CLEAR THAT, WHOEVER THE CANDIDATE, THEY'LL PULL OUT ALL THE STOPS TO WIN THIS RACE. LET'S SHOW THEM THAT WE'RE JUST AS DETERMINED TO WIN AS THEY ARE.
Actually, Rick Lazio is a BETTER candidate than Republican / Democrat
/ Liberal Giulianni. I suppose it is somehow EVIL of them to want
to save the country from the likes of you? Yet you vow to pull out
all the stops to win, too. Interesting.
One question - are you going to try to shove that
health care fiasco down our throats again if you win?
Oh, was that the kind of "personal attack" you were whining about?
OUR OPPONENTS UNDERSTAND HOW CRITICAL THE NEXT FEW WEEKS WILL BE IN DEFINING THIS CONTEST. SO DO I. THAT'S WHY I AM WRITING TO URGE YOU TO RUSH A SPECIAL DONATION IN AS GENEROUS AN AMOUNT AS YOU CAN POSSIBLY AFFORD.
So .. it figures ... you want me to send money ... and
all I hear are the complaints about the "massive
Republican fund-raising machine pouring millions of dollars
into the campaign coffers of Republican Candidates".
WE KNOW THAT MY OPPONENT WILL RECEIVE UNLIMITED FUNDING FOR THIS RACE SO WE CAN'T LET UP NOW.
I knew it -- "unlimited funding". Sounds scary ...
TOGETHER, WITH YOUR SUPPORT AND FRIENDSHIP WE WILL WIN.
HILLARY RODHAM CLINTON
Website : Hillary 2000. Like they say ... keep your friends close, and your enemies closer.
Read Barbara Stanley on "The Patriot". Like me, and hopefully YOU, she's totally disgusted with the current administration and CAN'T WAIT for it to be over so we can have some integrity and class in leadership roles in the USA. *** CAUTION *** - if you're offended by STRONG LANGUAGE (rated R) and STRONG FEELINGS, don't open this link. Really. I think Barbara Stanley did a great job. In fact, I'm writing a letter of appreciation for her fortitude in this matter.
