who's surprised...raise their hands...what...no hands?

"I am very surprised, frankly, at this statement from the United States government and from the secretary of state," said Mortimer Zuckerman, publisher of the New York Daily News and member of the NYC Jewish Community Relations Council.

"I liked her a lot more as a senator from New York," Assemblyman Dov Hikind, D-Brooklyn, said. "Now, I wonder as I used to wonder who the real Hillary Clinton is."

Funny, Mr. Zuckerman, I've been wondering who the real Hillary is for nearly 17 years. Whether it was her involvement in protesting the trial of muderous members of the radical Black Panther Party, or her summer internship with former communist and hardline Stalinist, attorney Robert Treuhaft, in Berkeley CA. If that's not enough to fill you in about Hillary's dream job's boss, this will do it:

"Treuhaft is a man who dedicated his entire legal career to advancing the agenda of the Soviet Communist Party and the KGB," notes historian Stephen Schwartz."

Mr. Zuckerman, I completely understand the enigma created by the two most dedicated people in history to power, politics, and the Presidency, Bill and Hillary Clinton. Remember that democracy life cylce thing. Well, as I said before, we're somewhere on the downside of complacency and apathy.

A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until the voters discover that they can vote themselves largess from the public treasury. From that time on the majority always votes for the candidates promising the most benefits from the public treasury, with the results that a democracy always collapses over loose fiscal policy, always followed by a dictatorship. The average age of the world's great civilizations has been 200 years.

These nations have progressed through this sequence:
from bondage to spiritual faith
from spiritual faith to great courage
from courage to liberty
from liberty to abundance
from abundance to selfishness
from selfishness to complacency
from complacency to apathy
from apathy to dependency
from dependency back to bondage.
