True, I hear Rush Limbagh saying how Hillary is a lock for 08. And I have been hearing that Roger Ailes is helping her to run her campaign. She also meets with Rupert Murdock every week or so to talk strategy. I dont know why the "Liberal" media isnt all over this like Loofah on Bil O's producer. Gravel is right, follow the money, look behind this scenes to see who is running s**t. I cant belive we are falling for this dog and pony show again afer the whole Bush shadow Gov't with Cheney and Rove behind the scenes. Its not the person in front of TV everyday you got to worry about. Its the puppet master behind the curtain.

20K is 20K whether it comes from Fox, CNN, PBS or even Jesus. I see no problem in her accepting that kind of money, I'd probably do the same. And I dare anyone to stare 20K in the face and say "No, I think I'm good, I don't like Fox."

OFFICIALS? Notice that missing in the headline? New Corpse actually gave here NOTHING. What is an official? Usually this means referee in sports. In this case it simply means.. People who work for Fox. Big f'n deal. They took a database of contributors and Fox employees and they found overlap that netted 20k in donations. There are thousands of people who work for the FOX propaganda machine. Is it really a surprise that a smattering of their employees gave money to the medias favorite Democratic candidate. They are hedging their bets. They think that if she is elected then they will have bought the same kind of influence they had with the GOP zombies. Will they? hard to say. She still blew off the Fox "debate".

You'll see candidates elected on merit when you take the money out of campaigning. Allow an amount from the public treasury for debates, commercials, etc. Ban "paid for" commercials from political parties. Better regulate the debates so ALL the candidates get chances to speak their minds. When the money leaves, the idealists may come back. Also, you should see where all the candidates campaign donations come from.<a class="user" href="http://www.opensecrets.org/pres08/index.asp">http://www.opensecrets.org/pres08/index.asp</a>

bill clinton hands a ton of technology to china and in a clinton bush baton pass they rammed NAFTA through (Not Allowed Freedom To Approve!) trade and border issues that should have been put to a vote. Corporate welfare handouts so companies can leave the country making millions of workers unemployed, hillary on the board of directors to WALMART 6 years importing Chinese slave made consumer goods bankrupting American manufacturers unemploying millions more, WALMART building a superport in Mexico for Chinese super-cargo ships to unemploy US longshoremen and truckers also bringing in more and faster. RUDY GIULIANI's lawfirm making millions representing CINTRA from Spain building the NAFTA SUPERHIGHWAY for transporting these slave made goods. (notice he's ex mayor of NYC and hillary the rep for NY state). RICK PERRY governor of Texas is land grabbing for this NAFTA superhighway. BUSH tries and fails 3-4 times to pass amnesty for illegal immigrants then hands the keys to US highways over to 100 Mexican trucking companies out of spite.people need to understand they are all business partners in TREASON !!
