Here's an article on Sen. Hillary Clinton that is very revealing. The commentary is by Dick Morris, a former advisor to President Clinton. He not only delves into Sen. Clinton's personality, he talks about the fact that the Clintons refuse to release their tax returns. Also, something Newsweek chronicled a few weeks back - President Clinton's business partnership with the Sheik of Dubai and his other business ventures.The real Hillary Clinton stood up at the Democratic presidential debate this week: angry, sarcastic, stubborn, secretive, arrogant, mired in the past, victim of the media, and still firmly convinced that she is uniquely entitled to the Democratic Party nomination and the presidency.
That Hillary hasn’t really been on display much since the debacle of her disastrous health care plan and the end of Bill Clinton’s impeachment trial, when she haughtily flaunted her combative personality.
But make no mistake about it — that’s the Hillary Clinton that we’ll see if she somehow manages to steal the Democratic nomination.
She’s found her voice. The one that so alienated everyone she came into contact with over her health care plan that her own party destroyed it. The one that publicly and loudly defended Bill and arranged for attacks on Monica Lewinsky when she knew the complete and sordid truth. Read the full commentary at Rasmussen Reports

(Taylor media Services) According to a report released last Thursday by the Pew Center on the States, for the first time in history more than one in every 100 American adults is in jail or prison. The report urges states to reduce soaring incarceration costs by devising alternative sentencing programs, especially for non-violent offenders.
The group bearing the greatest burden of the increased incarceration is young Black males between the ages of 20 and 34. The Pew report found that a startling 1 of every 9 African American males in that age group is in jail or prison. For the nation as a whole, 1 of 30 young men in the 20 to 34 age group is living behind bars. As of January 1st, there were 1,596,127 people in state and federal prisons and another 723,131 in local jails.
The United States incarcerates more of its citizens than any other nation in the world. Even though communist-led China has at least 4 times as many citizens as the United States, it has fewer of its citizens in jail or prison. [For more details, visit PEW online
Why does America have a problem with this statement? “Unashamedly Zionist and Unapologetically Jewish” to say this is to support an independent state AND a religion that does not accept Jesus as the Savior but it is generally not considered separatist for a Jew to express this sentiment, particularly within the Synagogue. In fact, we would expect this to be the perspective of Jews in the temple. What is the problem with this statement? In my experience people of European ancestry are “Unashamedly White and Unapologetically Christian”. Would the media rail if the statement was “Unashamedly Asian and Unapologetically Buddhist”?
Could it be that there is an expectation that African Americans would be ashamed about being Black and/or ashamed of being Christian? How is it that conservative (and even liberal) media can talk at length about John McCain’s service in the 1960’s and just ignore the Black experience in that turbulent era? The Civil Rights generation is shocked to find that White America is actually willing and able to evaluate a Black candidate based upon his policies. Many of us still can’t believe it.
