More hot air from Hillary

One of the most dangerous candidates in this year's elections is Hillary Rodham Clinton. Her personal need for power and fame knows no bounds. She will make outrageous statements merely to be able to get the free press. As a Democrat, I cannot urge my fellow party members enough to select ANYONE ELSE as our candidate in 2008.

One of the big things that irritates me about her (and her predecessors John Kerry and John Edwards) is the haves vs. have not arguments. She continually talks about how the Bush Administration and his fellow Republicans have worked only for the benefit of the rich. She continually talks about how she will work for the middle class. My question to her is, how does she know what the middle class wants or needs? She is actually one of the "rich" that she claims benefitted most from the Bush tax cuts.

Here's my challenge to Hillary, John, and any of the other well-heeled Democrats who are going to claim to speak for me. GIVE AWAY (not put in a blind trust, get rid of) all of your personal wealth and start living on $75,000 - $100,000 annual income and THEN talk to me about understanding the needs of the middle class. At that point, you might find that an extra $20 in your weekly paycheck IS something to be happy about instead of complaining that someone else got more. Until you do that, shut up about the middle class, you have NO IDEA what you're talking about.

Thoughts anyone?
