Condy is up to her neck in Saddam's weapons of mass destruction.No one from the Dubbya admin. is electable at the national level. Surprised U would support her at all.

he doesn't, he's just overcompensating by naming a black woman in the hopes that we will forget the obvious thing about him

Because she's brilliant and a tireless worker. If you feel the wmd debacle is a stain, then you also can't support Clinton, Clinton, Gore, Kennedy, Leiberman, Kerry and Feinstein. In fact, the only prominent Dem at the time with principle enough to stand against it was Howard Dean. I'm sorry if that's your criteria for support. Dean was a nutcase.

She's also the anti-lunaticliberal. She's economically gifted, shows compassion yet reason and I've never heard of a mountain of lies coming from her that you get with status quo. She will never run though, so never fear.

Be honest though, a well run campaign with a catchy slogan would get her elected, especially against a Gore or Biden. People have selective/short memories.

and obama too. had to throw that in there to correct your "facts" once again.

I've never heard of a mountain of lies coming from her that you get with status quo.

except for the 56 false statements she made in the lead up to the iraq war, part of 935 total in the administration she served in.

you pathetic dumb fuck.

They didn't inspire the Sherman Antitrust Act. They are breaking it.
Agree on the SCOTUS, but only 5

How are dead men doing that?

U can't paint the con and conned with the same brush,One is gullible the other is criminal. I have always thought the actions of the Bushies re: Iraq was treason and the whole bunch, except possibly Powell, should have been dealt with along those lines.... As for her winning a.Repub nomination, the party powers would rather burn in hell b4 giving the southern Pubtards. a reason to break their lock step voting habit and see the sky not fall.

I agree with the end part of your post. I think she is also intelligent enough to know this and that's why you'll never see her run.

I can't separate the guilt by party the way you are doing. High ranking dem officials were in all of the same security meetings and all gave the same schtick.

What if Kerry/Obama had their way and launched "strategic strikes" against the Assad regime? Would you want them convicted of treason? Or do you back the action FOR Assad now? We can't possibly getting the truth about BOTH actions can we?

Bushney was evil and did damage to our country that has not yet been undone, I would never argue against that. By the bumbling actions the last few years (we've now dropped bombs in 7 different sovereign nations under Obama) you would think they were still in charge.

This video is satire and a repost, but try to pick it apart. Meet the new boss, same as the old boss.

are you really trying to compare the bush admin's 935 outright lies which led to 5000 american deaths and 135000+ iraqi civilian deaths to a targeted campaign with no boots on the ground based on real intelligence that had been properly vetted by the global community?

you're dumber than shit.

I will be sure to smoke a fat one for them when i am in denver come may.

My brother has lived in colorado longer than your pussy ass has you piece of shit.

If you take what UB says at face value that's on you and will eventually bite you in the ass. Good luck with that. I don't even read what he writes anymore because it's either flinging poo, taking posts out of context or just flat out making shit up.

But you will eventually see it, no worries.

DENVER — Sheriffs from Colorado and neighboring states Kansas and Nebraska say in a lawsuit to be filed Thursday that Colorado's marijuana law creates a "crisis of conscience" by pitting the state law against the Constitution and puts an economic burden on other states.

The lawsuit asks a federal court in Denver to strike down Colorado's Amendment 64 that legalized the sale of recreational marijuana and to close the state's more than 330 licensed marijuana stores.

Lead plaintiff, Larimer County, Colo., Sheriff Justin Smith, calls the case a "constitutional showdown." Each day, he says, he must decide whether to violate the Colorado Constitution or the U.S. Constitution. Colorado legalized recreational marijuana sales Jan. 1, 2014, but marijuana remains illegal at the federal level.

Colorado is "asking every peace officer to violate their oath," Smith said. "What we're being forced to do ... makes me ineligible for office. Which constitution are we supposed to uphold?"

The out-of-state sheriffs say the flow of Colorado's legal marijuana across the border has increased drug arrests, overburdened police and courts and cost them money in overtime.

Felony drug arrests in the town of Chappell in Deuel County, Neb., 7 miles north of the Colorado border, jumped 400% over three years, a USA TODAY report tracking the flow of marijuana from Colorado into small towns across Nebraska found. Deuel County Sheriff Adam Hayward is one of the plaintiffs.

Police officers monitoring the flow of marijuana outside Colorado say volumes have risen annually. The Colorado-based Rocky Mountain High Intensity Drug Trafficking Area task force is still compiling 2014 numbers but expects to see the trend continue, director Tom Gorman said. He said non-residents often strike backdoor deals with legal growers to buy more than they are allowed, then illegally drive, fly or mail the marijuana across state lines.

The lawsuit invokes the federal government's right to regulate drugs and interstate commerce and argues that Colorado's decision to legalize marijuana hurt communities on the other side of the state lines. Attorneys general of Nebraska and Oklahoma filed a similar lawsuit late last year.

Colorado has not responded to the suit from the attorneys general, and Gov. John Hickenlooper, the defendant in the sheriffs' lawsuit, has not been served. Hickenlooper has said he respects the will of Colorado's voters. He has sought guidance from the federal government.

The Justice Department said it would largely take a hands-off approach in states that have legalized marijuana as long as regulations seek to keep the drugs away from children and criminals. Smith, the sheriff from Larimer, said that guidance amounts to instructing people "how to violate federal law but not get prosecuted."

Supporters of legalization criticize such lawsuits as last-ditch attempts by conservative politicians to derail states' movement toward marijuana legalization.

Speaking about the Nebraska-Oklahoma lawsuit in December, Mason Tvert of the Marijuana Policy Project said police should focus their attention on serious crimes and leave alone people who choose to use marijuana.

"These guys are on the wrong side of history," Tvert said.
