Whether you support Hillary or not - check in here!
Some of you know from my previous posts that my husband is a registered Republican.
Actually, that comes in pretty handy at times.

He just got a phone call, which I intercepted, from a group that calls themselves CITIZENS UNITED.

They played a short recorded message that said - Hillary is a socialist, a liberal, must be stopped.
They have hired Dick Morris (Whitewater fame) and they are going to be producing a movie that is going to bring her down.
They said it was urgent because of all the money that she has raised, and she needs to be stopped.

After the recording I was transferred to a woman that asked me if I trusted Hillary to handle the situation in Iraq, blah, balh, blah.
I was tempted to say no (haha) but I said "I think she would do a good job as President"....the lady said thank you and hung up.

Here we go.
Primaries haven't even happened yet, and they are ready to take her down.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Here we go - I just googled them, and all the info is right there.


Citizens United Productions is producing a full-length feature documentary about Senator Hillary Clinton. In the spirit of Celsius 41.11, the film will include interviews with renowned Clinton expert Dick Morris and others. This project aims to expose the truth about her conflicts in the past and her liberal plot for the future. Be sure to check back here often for updates on the progress of this exciting movie!

3. They've been around since the mid-90s at least.
Nothing new; they were pushing Whitewater and sub-Whitewater crap back then. ("Sub-Whitewater" = tales about Bill Clinton being a drug lord, having his enemies murdered, etc.) This is how some souls make their livings.

6. The right being completely delusional
does not turn Hillary into a liberal.

7. In the spirit of Celsius 41.11 ...
Edited on Mon Nov-05-07 03:17 PM by Jim__
I googled Celsius 41.11 (I never heard of it), and found a few reviews. this one doesn't seem too far from the norm:

#Celsius 41.11: The Temperature at Which the Brain Begins to Die#

Talk about your short shelf lives! This documentary from first-time director Kevin Knoblock, produced by Lionel Chetwynd (DC 9/11: Time of Crisis) is explicitly designed to make the case for re-electing George W. Bush, and as such it’ll be totally useless in two weeks, one way or the other. Less a refutation of Michael Moore than an attempted undermining of “Anyone But Bush” logic, the movie’s not as skillfully made as Moore’s film either -- it’s more like those Robert Greenwald documentaries that seem to come out almost every week, assembled from available news footage and interviews with sympathetic talking heads.

Following some exploitational 9-11 footage, and some laughs at the expense of wacky war protestors, Al Sharpton yelling about something, and Howard Dean’s scream, we get interviews with the likes of Charles Krauthammer, who says the hatred for Bush is unprecedented; Fred Thompson, who claims that everyone studied the PATRIOT act carefully before voting on it; Fred Barnes, who dubs Bush “The Great Clarifier”; and Michael Medved, who tells John Kerry that you can’t be a hero and a war protestor (though he never explains why not).

If Knoblock expected his film to change minds, as Fahrenheit 9-11 seems to have done, he really should have added more humor, and even more crucially, some testimonials from ordinary people affected by world events. Certainly anyone who wants to hear Barnes or Medved can do so already by turning on the radio or TV.
