So what you're really saying is that Senator Clinton is getting a pass for not being the liberal that most of her supporters think she is, right?

(There are two sides to every story.)

But, in reality can anyone expect Republicans to change their views on Pro Life,…

So, what exactly are you suggesting?

Obama introduces rational discourse into the nattering of the Washington nabob set. The issue is not uniting politicians, it is uniting the folks who pay those politicians.

Hillary has believed since her college days that it is possible to effect change from the inside. That's what she tried to do as a board member at WalMart, to cite one example. Obama's message is that the impetus for change has to come from outside, thus his choice to learn about grassroots organizing. That these two have crossed paths at this juncture makes for a profound historical contest. Will the people continue to cede their power to a bureaucracy that's primarily concerned with its own continuance? Or will we start taking responsibility as citizens to ensure the continuance of our constitutional democracy?

Laughable.

Clinton's Senate record in a nutshell, first term:

First term, junior Senator appointed to a bunch of committees, most notably Armed Services, which surely had nothing to do with her name.

Voted for Iraq war without reading the Iraq NIE (and ignoring the insistence of UN inspectors that Iraq had largely been defanged) along with the Byrd amendment, which allows the executive to basically renew the authorization for the use of force automatically every year without oversight and the only thing the President has to do is declare the continuation of the war vital to national security. During her speech announcing her support of AUMF Iraq, she said that this was the most important decision of her political career. Most people show more discretion in a grocery store than she did as a US Senator on the issue of going to war. But wait, there's more...

Voted for USA PATRIOT Act without reading it.

Took on GTA: San Andreas for adult content.

During the campaign for her second term, perhaps an indicator of campaign blunders to come, Clinton spent more than any other candidate running for office in 2006 in a race that was largely uncontested due to the withdrawal of early opposition front-runner Jeanine Pirro.

Second term:

Clinton finally begins acting like she's actually opposed to war. Opposed the troop surge, opposed continuing open-ended war funding and, to her credit, basically told David Petraeus he was full of it.

Called for the resignation of Alberto Gonzalez.

Supported Immigration Reform Act, which fails to gain traction.

---

Second term obviously looks a lot better than the first, but as a legislator she's a lightweight, but there's no evidence of any of this reaching across the aisle that she's good at. The DLC philosophy, to which she is adherent, went off the rails long ago when they mistook reaching across the aisle with packing their shit up and moving there.

Now, as for Barack Obama:

Active early on in some immigration reform legislature, including working with Senator John McCain, which fails to go anywhere.

Works with Senator Dick Lugar to introduce Lugar-Obama to increase conventional weapons disarmament.

Works with Senator Tom Coburn on Coburn-Obama to increase transparency of government fund allocation and use by publishing this information on the web.

Primary sponsor for Congo Relief Act.

Member of Senate Foreign Relations committee. Travels to Europe, the Middle East, Asia and Africa to continue work on disarmament as a preventative measure against terrorist activity. I can't stress this enough. Instead of rubber stamping an illegal war he was out on the ground, doing his foreign policy homework and being proactive on the issue of terrorist threats.

Works with Russ Feingold on "Honest Leadership and Open Government Act" to restrict lobbyist gifts.

Works with Kit Bond on amendment to "Defense Authorization Act" to introduce safeguards for military discharges based on personality disorders.

Works with Chuck Hagel to introduce Obama-Hagel to help reduce the risks of potential nuclear terrorism.

---

So that's four concrete examples in Obama's column of legislature where he worked with a Republican to, and here's the key, actually get something done.

I can't say the same thing for Hillary.

Of course, you don't have to take my word for it. You can go to thomas.loc.gov like anyone else and compare the records for yourself.

But why do that when you can just keep trying to sell Clinton's story for her?

To paraphrase Benjamin Disraeli, there are three kinds of untruths: lies, damned lies and Hillary Clinton's 35 years of aisle-crossing experience.

Good day, sir! I said good day!

LOL you said:

You have to look no further than to review their Senate records.

And then proceeded to talk about anything but their records except for the HRC-approved talking points. Hmmm, I'm thinking that maybe you should, ah...actually look at their Senate records. And you can also look at Obama's full record as an elected official (that's a little longer than Clinton's).

Haha, and tell me, why do most of her signature bills she always talks about introducing have ZERO co-sponsors and have moved nowhere? Oh, is it because she introduces legislation on helping kids or old people or whatever, just to be able to say she did it, and then let them sit forever in a file? No way!

How about you actually look at their records. I'm sick of you idiotic Hillary supporters. It was annoying and pathetic when they were actually in a race, but now that he is clearly going to be our nominee, it is deplorable. How about you either start going after McCain, or shut up, because right now your lies aren't helping Democrats at all.
