For those who watched the Asman Report on Fox tonight at 8pm, “Saving Our Economy:
What’$ Next?,  you already know what was in the content.

For those that didn’t watch it, there was one salient point made that I found extremely important.

After the crash of the stock market, the financial crisis lasted for years. Why, asked
David Asman to an expert of this very subject, a woman whose name escapes me at the moment, wrote a book called “The Forgotten Men”, about the Great Depression that began after the fall  of the stock market.

According to her, Roosevelt imposed more and more high taxes on businesses, which, rather than pay the taxes, closed their doors. Thus rampant unemployment at 20% arose and the depression actually went on until 1954.

This point seems very important to me. Why?  Because this is exactly what Barack Obama plans to do, raise taxes on businesses.  How many businesses will close their doors this time and unemployment will rise? Will Barack Obama’s plan to raise taxes on businesses cause the next Great Depression?

Since the VP Debate will be Thursday night, I thought I would remind everyone of Joe Biden's gaffes. There is no doubt that any misstep by Sarah Palin will make the NYT's front page, probably the whole front page with an article called "Moose Killer Fails to Skin Biden.  Time and Newsweek will probably feature her on their front pages with titles such as "Bimbo Palin Flops in Debate",  or "Palin Beauty Queen Stumbles on Runway".  

On the front cover of People Magazine a featured Palin will be shown in her bathing suit stating she should go back to beauty shows, but, oops, can't do that now, she's had five children and one a retard.........as the article continues with more smears of Palin.

So, let's go down the list of Joe Biden's gaffes which are equally if not worse than anything Sarah Palin has ever said.  But if Joe makes a gaffe on Thursday night you won't hear about it except by the right wing media. It will be completely ignored by the MSM.

Biden Gaffes:

“I mean, you got the first mainstream African American who is articulate and bright and clean and a nice-looking guy.”

 “you cannot go to a 7-Eleven or a Dunkin’ Donuts unless you have a slight Indian accent.”

Joe Biden told CBS he thought an Obama campaign ad mocking John McCain as a computer illiterate was “terrible.”

Biden spoke of President Franklin Roosevelt’s having gone on television after the stock market crash of 1929. But Roosevelt was not president in 1929, and television was not present.

Biden also said neither he nor Obama supports clean coal technology in America. But Obama does support clean coal.

Hillary Clinton's a qualified or more qualified than I am to be the vice president of the United States of America.  Let's get that straight.  She's a truly close personal friend.  She is qualified to be president of the United States of America, she's easily qualified to be vice president of the United States of America, and, quite frankly, it might have been a better pick than me, but she's first rate.

He encouraged wheelchair-bound Missouri State Senator Chuck Graham to stand up at a campaign rally.

China's building two every week, two dirty coal plants.  And it's polluting the United States! It's causing people to die!

If you want to know where Al-Qaeda lives, you want to know where Bin Laden is, come back to Afghanistan with me.  Come back to the area where my helicopter was forced down, a three-star general and three United States senators at 10,500 feet in the middle of those mountains. I can tell you where they are.
(The truth was they were forced down by a snowstorm)

"Barack Obama ain't taking my shotguns, don't buy that malarkey.  If he tries to fool with my Beretta, he's got a problem."

 Biden said that the wealthy would pay higher taxes if if he and Obama won the White House but said that doing so would be "patriotic."  "Time to jump in, time to be part of the deal, time to help get America out of the rut."

But never mind, Joe Biden is one of the Washington insider "good ole boys" and anything he says is just flipped off as "oh, that's just our good ole Joe and he is such a likable guy" and "you just gotta laugh, that Joe can be so funny".

Sexism rears its' ugly head once again as it did for Hillary.  Only Chris Matthews cannot claim that Palin got to run because her husband hid Monica Lewinsky under the Oval office table for certain Billy treats.

I can hear Chris Matthews saying something like this however, "Blah, who wants a vice president, a woman, who shoots moose, skins them and eats them. It sends shivers down my spine".

John Boehner sold us out.  I cannot say how disappointed I am in my former Congressman and sorry I ever wrote
that he would save the conservative values we hold.  I guess every honest man that goes to DC turns into a crook sooner
or later. What a waste.

He was quoted as saying this bailout bill is a crap sandwich.  So why is he making us eat it?

Goodbye, John Boehner.  You eat the crap sandwich by yourself and all the foolish Republican Congressmen who
are going to go along and vote for this bill.

As everyone knows the "bailout" bill the democrats had put together was a very, very bad bill.

In that bill, Chris Dodd had inserted that 20% of the money, paid by tax payers, would go to Acorn, the group that is under indictment in some areas of the country for all their voter fraud activities.  Are you angry yet? 

Representative John Boehner, of Ohio, who was my representative while I was living there stopped this bill from going forward.

According to Mike Pence of Indiana, he and other republican House members would not accept this bill and John McCain stood shoulder to shoulder with John Boehner and the other Republicans fighting against this bill. 

Of course, the democrats have lied stating that McCain blew up the meeting in the Oval Office when it was actually Barack Obama that blew the meeting up and has literally admitted to it.

The Democrats lied that there was a deal with the Republicans when there never was a deal.  The Republicans had not even gone through the nuts and bolts of what was in that bill prior to McCain arriving and John Boehner getting the information about this.

All I can say is hurray for John Boehner who has been a steadfast fighter for conservatives and McCain for standing with him.

‘I’ve been where you are now and I know just how you feel. It’s entirely natural that there should beat in the breast of every one of you a hope and desire that some day you can use the skill you have acquired here.

‘Suppress it! You don’t know the horrible aspects of war. I’ve been through two wars and I know. I’ve seen cities and homes in ashes. I’ve seen thousands of men lying on the ground, their dead faces looking up at the skies. I tell you, war is hell!’

War is hell and sometimes we have had to fight whether we wanted to or not.  There seems to be no ending to the evil that exists around the world.  Thursday, we commemorate those fellow citizens who lost their lives during the attacks of 9/11.  Some people already have forgotten even though there were signs all over at the time stating, "WE SHALL NEVER FORGET".


But this has not been the first or probably the last time we will fight a war.  Someone will always, sadly, need to wage war.

I am going to take you all down a little pictorial journey partially to commemorate others who have fought and died for us, but also to keep in mind, evil never disappears. Evil remains among us.  First we shall go down memory lane to the Holocaust which some deny. I wonder how that can be, especially when you see these pictures.  No words are necessary to describe the pictures. The pictures of survivors and the dead are from the various concentration camps, Dachau, Auschwitz, Nordhausen, Mauthausen to name a few of the places.

Yesterday a breath of fresh air blew into Dayton, Ohio and that fresh air was Sara Palin, John McCain’s pick for VP.

Now he could have chosen any woman, any mild mannered, soft spoken, wimpy woman, but no, he chose the barracuda.

This is exciting to me that a woman has been chosen and not just any woman, but a magnificent specimen of one.  She is the Washington Beltway, old boy network, OUTSIDER.  She is fresh, tough, competitive, smart, and she has fought corruption in her own party, yes, the Repubs, and kicked them over Prudhoe Bay.

This is one tough lady.  And for all the naysayers who think she will be put into the broom closet under lock and key or sent to Siberia never to be seen or heard from again, I say think again. This is no ordinary woman. She will not be McCain’s shadow.  If she is relegated into the broom closet I’ll bet my boots she tells McCain straight to his face to shape up or she is shipping out, like in resigning.

Now a lot of people do not agree with all McCain has done during his service to this country.  But, there is one thing I do not think anyone can disagree on and that is that McCain loves his country.

For that reason I believe that McCain chose this woman and put her on a silver platter to be handed over to conservatives as a gift to our country in his twilight years.

He knows his time is fading.  He is 72 years old. He is fighting melanoma on a daily basis. He is fine for now, but that may not always be the case. What a better gift could he leave us than this fresh, competitive, fiscally responsible, corruption fighter, Sara Palin.  If something were to happen to him who would we have as president?  Sara Palin!

Yes, she needs to get her feet wet and she will have that opportunity if McCain gets elected.  But there is no doubt in my mind this woman is up to the job. And, even if McCain does not get elected, Sara Palin will now be a national player in the field of Republican candidates for the next election.
She will be a known force with which to be reckoned.

For those people who say “so what is the relevance of being a VP” I will use one of my readers’ words, Dogged.  He said, “I bet Lyndon Johnson did not feel irrelevant when he had to step into the shoes of John F. Kennedy.”

Just a few days ago Bill Clinton got caught stating that Obama is noting more than a typical Chicago thug politician.  It may be one of the few times Bill Clinton hasn’t lied.

According to the story told by Rush Limbaugh, Obama and his henchmen from his camp and the Democrat party are trying with all the power they can muster to shut anyone down trying to investigate and report the truth about what is going down.

According to Rush:

ABC reporter on their investigating unit was arrested on a public Denver sidewalk for trying to take pictures of Democrat Senators entering the posh, exclusive, hotel, the Brown Palace Hotel. A sergeant of the Denver Police and five other officers grabbed Eslocker around the neck, then twisted his arm behind his back to put him into handcuffs.

ABC lawyers were told Eslocker was arrested for trespass, interference, and failure to follow a lawful order. ABC news has been doing a series on the Money Trail in conventions with Charles Gibson.

These same high rollers being seen going into the Brown Palace Hotel also have club seating at Invesco field tonight for the Obama coronation.

Of course Obama has disclaimed using any special interest money for his campaign purposes, but there seems to be quite a discrepancy in his protestations.

OK, so is this a harbinger of living under a Putin like regime from the Obama camp?  Journalists arrested in public places searching and writing the truth? Will these same journalists “disappear” as under Putin?

Another reporter, Stanley Kurtz who has been investigating the ties between Obama and the former, unapologetic weatherman, Bill Ayers, has been intiimadted and threatened after appearing on a radio talk show speaking about researching the business dealings between Obama and Ayers in the Richard Daley library in Chicago. The radio station was flooded with calls to stop the conversation and shut down Mr. Kurtz.

This is scary stuff folks. Just think if the Fairness Doctrine is passed. Just how much free speech do you think we will have under the Obama Soviet-like regime?  What about Obama’s Internal Security Force he wants to put into place? Does that sound similar to the SS under the Hitler regime?

This was sent to me by a friend.  I think it is quite interesting. So, I’m posting it for all to read and wonder.

 

Subject: 57 States

I can't believe this man! What on earth is he doing running for pres?


You are aware, probably, that Barack Obama lost his bearings recently and
said that he was going to campaign in all 57 states.
 
Obama says he's gonna go out and campaign in 57 states, he was just tired,
 you know, it's been such a long campaign, he's been so many places, he
 probably thinks there are 57 states.
 
 Well, I have here a printout from a website called the International
 Humanist and Ethical Union. This is how the second paragraph of an article
 on that website begins. "Every year from 1999 to 2005 the organization of
 the Islamic conference representing the 57 Islamic states presented a
 resolution to the United Nations commission on human rights called
 combating." The title of the piece here is, "How the Islamic states
 dominate the UN human rights council," and there are 57 of them.
 
Obama said he's going to campaign in 57 states, and it turns out that there
are 57 Islamic states. There are 57 Islamic states. So did Obama just
lose his bearings, or was this a more telling slip, ladies and gentlemen?
DO ALL AMERICANS A FAVOR AND FORWARD THIS TO EVERYONE ON YOUR LIST..... I
just did!

At 100 degree temperatures, Lucy (Purplegimp) and her gang of Kiryat Shmonah gimps blasted off on their scooters and wheelies to join the Gathering of Gimps who were protesting about their benefits for the disabled not being raised for ten years now.

 The other groups were not getting the attention they needed from the press, so an SOS was sent out to Lucy to get on her scooter to help raise some hell.

 

Here’s a picture of Lucy leading her group of gimps to the Jerusalem march, all decked out in purple of course, blue tooth in her ear, and water bottle in her stricken arm.

 

They met up in town at 0730 to organize ourselves before the trailer got there to take the scooters to the official starting place. There were two scooters, two regular wheelies, and a power chair who came with his van.

The Gathering of Gimps

Lucy’s group did not make it all the way because an order on high stopped them dead in their tracks and a police tow for the scooters and wheelies to take them back.

Purplegimp is waiting on a call from Bibi Netanyahu who is a personal friend of hers and he will listen and take under consideration the disabled gimps cause. Olmert wants them nowhere in sight and does not want any publicity over the plight of the disabled in Israel.

 Here’s a breakdown of the disabled and their benefits:

Let's do a little maths and see what we get.
Minimal monthly expenses:
130 average rent in housing authority flats
75 average water
80 property tax
400 electric
150 phone
199 cable
75 cooking gas
300 meds

 That's a grand monthly total of 1409 and we haven't even had a bite to eat or left the house. A basic monthy benefit is just under 2000 which leaves us the whopping sum of just under 600 to eat and leave the house.

 Personally, she is OK, but she is just on the borderline of OK. It's for the ones who have to decided if they want to eat or take their meds that she is up in arms about.

For more on Lucy’s story here is a link you can go to:  http://www.ynet.co.il/articles/0,7340,L-3560605,00.html  and here Lucy speaking herself

Lucy did get the press coverage the gimps needed due to her notorious reputation and they are on their way to getting the changes needed. Their next plan of attack to march on Jerusalem is being planned today.

When Lucy has her mind set, nothing gets in her way or stops her. Lucy is a true inspiration and to be admired. With all of her own disabilities she risks everything to help out others and march for the cause. Lucy is one of today’s real heroines.

 

Last night I heard BO tell people that if he is President there will be no drilling for oil.  According to him, we can't drill our way out of this problem.  Duh!  Listen up BO, we can't get out of this right away either with alternative fuels, windmills, solar panels, and other ideas you might have.

If we had started drilling for our own oil when we had the oil crisis during the Jimmah Carter days, we would now be independent of these Islamic con men. But, no, we did nothing as usual. The liberals and their adherence to the Greenies would not allow us to drill in our own country, off our own shores, in Anwar and here we are years later in a worse crisis than ever.  The whole world must find us laughable and stupid to say the least.

Well, BO, if you don't want drilling, you might just get a drilling at the polls. Most of the American people want the oil drilling to start and start right now.

Last night, I was just about ready to shoot the TV listening to Alan Colmes talk about how drilling for our own oil would only save us a penny on a gallon of gas. How the hey does he know?  Besides that, has he ever considered the fact that we are paying all this money to OPEC who only uses our money for terrorist attacks against us.  So, we virtually pay for ourselves to be attacked. How attractive is that?

Like a usual liberal, Alan Colmes is an idiot.

The next thing was the segment how Israel flew a trial run over the Persian Gulf to give Ahmedinejad a little taste of what to expect if he keeps talking and threatening to wipe Israel off the map.  Of course the liberal talking point guest had to say that that was one of the worst things Israel could do is threaten Iran. OMG!  Another stooge, numbscull, idiot, moron. I'm running out of words for these liberal "LET'S HAVE DIPLOMACY INSTEAD".   Yeah, sure, I can't wait to see BO talk to Ahmedinejad and tell him not to threaten anyone or he will whip Ahmedinejad with a wet noodle. No balls Obama with the bigmouth of Iran. The scene makes me laugh out loud.

I can see BO sitting there telling this maniac that we need to diplomatically settle this problem. Like how will that work when the man wants Israel off the map and he can't wait to do it?  Sure, I guess the Messiah, BO, thinks he will just speak in his slathering, slobbering rhetoric to Ahmedinejad and all will be well.  And, I'm sure Governor Richardson is telling BO that it worked with N. Korea so why shouldn't it work with Iran.  Richardson kept telling people during the debates he solved the problem of nukes with N. Korea during the Clinton administration. Oh, my stomach hurts from laughing so hard. Particularly when I recall N. Korea several years ago trying to launch nukes on the 4th of July. They were duds but he's still at it, the little cheater. I guess Richardson didn't know you can't trust a Communist.

And, who did I see sitting around a table with BO like they were his advisors?  Madeline Dimbulb!  Now there ya go, BO. That should be a real winner for you.  So basically I see BO surrounding himself with tired old leftovers from the Clinton years and pre 9/11.  That tells me all I need to know.  As if I didn't know already.

And, Michelle, she's getting a new makeover.  She has a whole new boatload of people who are redoing her image so she can be tolerated by the American people who are so mean. 

Well, we bitter Americans who cling to our religion and guns aren't buying this crap. So, hey BO why don't you jump onto one of those oil rigs and start drilling for our oil right now. Roll up your sleeves and get your hands dirty.  You should be used to it considering you come from the dirtiest political place in the country, Chicago.

Interviewer: Joe Smith

Interviewee: Barack Obama

Brought to you by the average man on the street series

 

Joe: Mr. Obama, it’s a pleasure to meet you.

Obama: Likewise, Joe. I love talking to the people, unlike
Mrs. Clinton, I am a natural at this. The people love me
when I speak.

Joe:  That’s good to hear, sir. Now I hope during this
conversation we can get into some meaty matters. I
found it difficult with Mrs. Clinton.

Obama: Oh, that won’t be a problem Joe. You see I’ve
been where you’ve been, down among the masses,
speaking in crowds, people swarming over me, wanting
to touch me, talk to me. It’s amazing really. I never
thought I would become such an icon in so little time.

Joe:  Yes, Mr. Obama. I see that is happening. But,
today I would like to ask you some questions that
will help me make my decision for 2008.

Obama:  By the way, Joe, did you see that picture of
me in my swim suit walking in the water towards the
beach? Man hell of a picture! I didn’t think my
handlers could do such a good job of making me
look like the black John Kennedy, but youzza man,
that blew me away. I think like John Kennedy. I’m
thinking of that speech where he said, “Ask not what
your country can do for you, but ask what can I
do for my country”. Great speech. And, to think
I come from Illinois where Jack won the election,
in the normal democratic way, stealing votes.  Oh,
Joe, that was just a joke now. Don’t take that
seriously. I just like to add a dash of humor, helps
break the ice.

Joe:  Well, Mr. Obama, how do you think you are
so like John Kennedy? He was from a different era when
the democratic party was….

Obama: Oh, not so different. We still steal votes. Ha!Ha! 
Now remember Joe, just a joke. Ha! I so love
my jokes. Everything about me seems to sparkle.

Joe:  I would much prefer to talk about your ideas
and plans if you become president.

Obama:  I’m a thinking man, Joe. I think long and
hard before I make a decision. I would never have
rushed into war like Bush. No, never fight a war if
you can’t win it.

Joe:  But, Bush didn’t rush Mr. Obama, he…..

Obama:  Forget it Joe. It’s over and done now. The
Democrats will not fight a war. We don’t believe in
it. It just wastes time and money. Money needs to be
spent on more important things, such as setting up
more abortion clinics for those women who have to
make a choice. We’re planning on some very nice
institutions that will provide after care beyond what
any private hospital could ever offer these poor
women.

Joe: Did I hear you correctly, more abortion clinics
with government money?

Obama: Of course. Our government owes the people
of this great nation everything we can give them. As
I was saying, after care will include several days of
recovery with a special dietitian on hand who will
prepare special meals made particularly to suit the’
needs of a grieving mother.

Joe:  Wait a minute, Mr. Obama, grieving mother?

Obama: Of course Joe, you don’t think these women
are happy to give up their children do you? And
after the trauma, particularly of those partial birth abortions,
that I support by the way, no mother in
her right mind would be happy. So, we need a special
government program to help them during their
grieving processes. We need counselors, special
accommodations and after care.

Joe:  Mr. Obama I’m not seeing how this likens you
to John Kennedy actually, I thought…

Obama:  Well, Joe, you see I took John Kennedy’s
words and I have my own slogan. I say, “Ask not
what you can do for your country, but what can I
get out of my country”. That’s the real question we
need to ask ourselves. We are living in a different
age and we need to change policies to fit the times
in which we live, Joe. Get with the program, most
or a lot of people already understand this idea.

Joe:  I would like to ask you about the axis
of evil. Now to make myself clear since Mrs. Clinton
got confused, I’m talking about Iran, North Korea,
Syria, those countries which are causing a grave threat
to our national security.

Obama:  Those countries just need a good talking to
Joe. Nothing to sweat over. Once I get on the road, I
will whip things into shape, make a pact with all parties
involved, one in which we can all live with and abide by.
You see how well our conversation is going right now?
I’ll present them with options and opportunities that
will engender the greatest peace of our time.

Joe:  What do you plan to offer?

Obama:  Myself!  Ha! Ha! Just joking, Joe. You know
most of the women are just drooling over me, my good
looks, buff body, seeing me in those swim trunks…

Joe: EXCUSE me, Mr. Obama, could we get back to what
you plan to offer these countries so they don’t nuke
us?

Obama:  Joe, settle down now. Don’t get so vehement
about it. You’d think the danger was imminent the way
you talk.

Joe:  I do think the danger is imminent Mr. Obama and
don’t tell me to settle down.

Obama:  Joe, Joe, it’s all a matter of diplomacy. You’ve
heard that word right? I know it’s been a long time since
you’ve seen anyone practice it. With Bush just rushing
off like a mad cowboy running roughshod over every
world leader telling them what to do, when to do it,
how to do it. Where was the d-i-p-l-o-m-a-c-y?

Joe:  What about you attending a madrassa Mr. Obama?
I hear from the Clinton campaign that you were…

Obama:  Don’t believe that silly Mrs. Clinton. I just
don’t know how that woman thinks anyone will believe
what she says. She didn’t even know her own husband
was getting a head job in the oval office. What a schmuck!
I wonder how it will be for me in the Oval office? Hmm,
could be interesting. I’ll make sure I have better looking
interns though. Bill has no taste.

Joe: PLEASE, Mr. Obama, let’s get back to the topic!

Obama:  Yes, yes, that’s right. The threat. Actually, Joe
I am not so sure there is a threat. I mean I see a small
sort of problem with some very primitive backwards
countries who don’t allow freedom to flourish.
Oh, I like the sound of that word, flourish. Don’t you
Joe? I think I need to use that more often. Let diplomacy
flourish. Forget about that let freedom ring bull.

Joe:  Mr. Obama I need to know the answer to what I
consider the most pressing issue of my lifetime. The
radical Islamic threat and the danger we are in from the..

Obama:  Really, Joe, are you a bigot? Radical Islamic
threat? Are you not a man of religion yourself?

Joe:  Yes, yes, I’m a Christian and I’m afraid I’m going
to die by the sword…

Obama:  That’s so funny. Die by the sword. Just where
are you getting that, Joe? What have you been reading?
Those right wing radicals have polluted your mind to
the point you are believing the lies. You’ve become a
fearful and pitiful caricature of a man, Joe. Stand tall,
walk straight, strut just like me. If you walk like you
got the cojones, then you got em. Got that Joe?

Joe:  Yeah, I got it, but….

Obama:  Good, Joe. My handlers are telling me that’s
all the time I’ve got for now. They have a couple of
cuties waiting to see me. Catch ya later, Joe. Don’t
worry my friend, things are changing. I’ll be re-arranging
the scope of the nation and bringing the good times back.
Hollywood is promoting me and I’ll be seen across the world
as the new peacemaker. You’ve got nothing to worry
about. Trust me.

To all the good people at TH who come here to read my blog, I wanted to take a moment to thank everyone for their well wishes and prayers.

I still need your prayers more than ever,  so don’t stop. 

For right now I just can’t write or even read much on TH. I apologize for not getting to the blogs of those who ask me to come over.

But, right now, I am too physically, mentally, and emotionally exhausted from illness, seeing doctors and going through batteries of medical tests.

Right now, I already know I have 3 surgeries to face and there could be more than that. The tests results will give us more information.

I’m not going to bore anyone with all the tests or all the problems already found. I just want to tell you all that I won’t be around much on TH for awhile, a short time, I hope.  It was difficult to make this decision since writing on TH is one of my favorite things to do, especially if I could put a smile on someone’s face or make them laugh.

I do hope to be back at some point and I hope that will be sooner than later.  I do answer email from those who have written me. I may not get to them right away, but I do answer eventually. So anyone who wishes to can email me if they want. My email address is on my blog page.  

Right now I just want to send all my affection to you all and God bless all of you who have cared enough to ask about me.

I am posting an article I wrote some time ago as it seems timely once again to publish it. For those who may have not seen or read it back when I was writing under Peppermintsplace blog. It is one of the articles I wrote for the Average Man in the Street Series.

Interviewer Joe Smith

Interviewee Hillary Clinton

Brought to you by the Average Man in the Street Series

Joe:  It was quite pleasant of you Mrs. Clinton, to suggest we sit and chat with you.
I’m looking forward to our discussion.

Hillary: Oh, my pleasure Joe. I have been looking forward to talking to the
average citizen. I don’t often get this wonderful opportunity, that’s why I
presented my campaign opening by suggesting we chat and have discussions.
There are so many issues on people’s minds today and with all the bi-partisan
squabbling I’m sure the American average Joe, like you must be so
frustrated. We’ve become such a divided nation since Bush took over from my
husband. The country has become the most polarized nation on earth,
unlike the times when my husband was in office and so loved…..

Joe:  Excuse me Mrs. Clinton, but I was hoping we could have a real
discussion about real issues.

Hillary:  Oh, oh, of course, Joe. Just what would you like to discuss?
I have many programs on the table that I would love to tell you about…

Joe:  Excuse me again, Mrs.Clinton, but I would like to ask you some
questions first if you don’t mind. I’d like to stay and talk with you for a long
time, but I do have a job to go to since I am an average citizen.

Hillary:  Oh, of course, Joe, one forgets these kinds of things. Of course
you have a job, but you know most Americans don’t have jobs to go
to and if they do, they are being paid far too little. That’s why I will enact
the fair worker doctrine, where all workers, average ones that is,
will be paid the same amount of wages irregardless of merit…

Joe:  Excuse me again, Mrs. Clinton, but I was sincerely hoping to ask
you some questions on the biggest issues facing our country right now.

 
Hillary:  Yes, yes, I understand, Joe. We have already raised the minimum
wage and I will be working on a health care program that will cover all….

Joe:  Mrs. Clinton, I would really like to turn the subject to something of a
different nature, such as the axis of evil.

 
Hillary:  Oh, my God, Joe. I can’t believe you would bring up such a
personal issue; I really can’t go into that….....

Joe:  Mrs. Clinton, I want to know how you view the axis of evil and
what your plans are…....

Hillary:  Really Joe!! I have no intention of speaking to you about Monica,
Bill, and myself. That issue was resolved a long time ago. I can’t believe
you would even mention it. And, for your information, that dress, the one
with the “stain” was actually mine. I had leant that dress to Monica
without having it dry cleaned. That’s one thing I can’t forgive myself for
because the right wing press and their right wing groups had to make
a big thing out of it. Like Bill would do anything to harm his image and
our marriage. I’ll never forgive that Dobson character, who
ever he is and that Hannity, or is it Colmes, trying to take my husband
down when all he tried to do is the best for this country.
We love our country and Bill and I….....

Joe:  No, Mrs. Clinton, I wasn’t asking about that axis of evil,
I was speaking about…...

Hillary:  I really don’t want to go into Falwell, Dobson, and that other
Christian whatshisname. I think we all have had enough of that kind
of division in this country. With out these Christian right wing nu…,
I mean right wing voters we would have no problems in this country.
Now, they even try to make things up about Islam and it being a right
wing religion. You would think they would be happy to have another
right wing religions group to hang out with. You just can’t make people
happy especially when it revolves around religion. I just don’t under
stand why people get themselves upset over Islam. We need more
diversity in this country…....

Joe:  Mrs. Clinton, I believe you have misunderstood…...

Hillary:  I understand completely Joe. You were just trying to trip me
up with that axis of evil shi…, uh, thing. I get it. I’m not your average
citiz….I mean I wasn’t born yesterday. I know just what you
were up to. You want to bring up the past…..Wait, a minute Joe,
I just need to regain my composure.

Joe:  Mrs. Clinton, when I referred to the axis of evil I meant…...

Hillary:  Darn it, Joe. Is it your notion of a chat to drive me up the wall
with this? I already told you it’s a thing of the past. Bill and I even went
to marriage counseling and Bill learned a lot about being a husband,
and I learned a lot about being a wife. Poor man. His appetites
are so profound. He couldn’t help himself. You know what it’s like
to be the most important person in the world and have women falling all
over you?  Oh, I’m sorry Joe; of course you wouldn’t know that. You’re
just an average slo…., I mean you haven’t had to carry the burden of
being in political office, being president, and having to resist all kinds
of temptation, from fornication to selling classified documents.
Not that anyone did anything of the sort.
I mean, it’s just so difficult on all the family members in the White
House. Everyday another right wing press agent out to get us, to
take my husband down, the pressure, the indignation of it all…...

Joe:  Mrs. Clinton, I have to be back to work in ten minutes so I
haven’t got too much time…..

Hillary:  That’s another thing I’ll take care of for you Joe. When I’m
president I will enact A “fair work place doctrine” that will allow
you to have as much time off work as possible for other reasons as
sick children. But, you know I love the children so much. We can’t do
enough for our children. Every day I see children in need. Just the other
day I saw a very small baby in a dumpster. Can you believe it?
A dumpster of all places!  Joe. The average citizen can’t be throwing small
babies in dumpsters simply because they have not the time
off work to feed them. I’ve never seen anything like it. I really didn’t know
how bad things had gotten in this great country of ours since Bush
took office. I mean I knew we were being pulled apart like hyenas
grabbing a ham sandwich, but to see a small baby, and I mean
it was so small. To think that parents don’t have enough to feed such
small children in this country shows me how far down Bush has brought
us down to their knees, people suffering terribly….....

Joe:  Mrs. Clinton, were you visiting an abortion clinic lately?

Hillary:  Joe, what kind of person are you?  You say you wanted to chat.
But all you have done is throw ugly things in my face. I don’t visit abortion
clinics, Joe. I don’t plan on having any more children. For God’s sake,
having Chelsea was plenty and making those dumb Christmas ornaments
and cookies to be sent of to that private school just to make an impression
…, I mean to help out those less fortunate than ourselves. You see we
always made nice little things to be given to the poor around Christmas
even though I personally don’t believe in such things. Those kinds
of things should come from the government….

Joe: EXCUSE ME, Mrs. Clinton; I was trying to ask you about North Korea,
Iran, Syria, those countries that are presenting a grave threat…

Hillary:  Oh, that kind of evil. Why didn’t you say so to begin with Joe? 
Now, actually, Joe, I have to leave. It’s a busy schedule when running
for president and I have another chat lined up.  Thanks so much for your
time. I’m so glad we had this wonderful chat.
