   Thank you, Mash, for your posts. I was not all that fond of Mr. Bill, and I hope his wife doesn’t run for president. But to see the contrasting examples of the states of mind of these two individuals even got through to a certain conservative person I know.;)

   Clinton through his Global Initiative hosted a forum where he invited our Dr Yunus (Grameen Bank)in a plenary session: Building Sustainable Future. The live cast took place today (Sep 21) at about 1:00. Others in the panel were John Chambers (CISCO), Klaus Kleinfeld (Siemens) and Al Gore.

   At times like this Clinton appears somewhat endurable.

   That OBGYN comment is a classic. Thank you for finding these videos. I needed a laugh.

   Clinton is impressive as always. He could easily win the elections in Israel.

   Some say that Bush is just misunderestimated or something like that…

   Cheers for the videos. Some of those Bush quotes were amazing.

   However…

   Let’s not forget that Clinton, just like Bush, was responsible for the deaths of thousands. He continued to uphold the sanctions on Iraq, described by Ed. Herman as one of the biggest genocides in the latter half of the 20th century (over a million were killed, 500,000 of them children). Then, of course, there was that bombing of the al-Shifa plant in Sudan.

   Amen Heathlander, Clinton is/was not squeeky clean which brings me back that there is not too much difference between the two parties. However, one at the moment is more pallatable but I think if the Dems ever win back the House, or get back in power so to speak, don’t count too much on them making campaign or election reforms which would prevent all of this two party wrangling over power. I have come to believe more and more with all the reading I’ve been doing that this country is first and foremost a corporate state of sorts with just a token of democracy. I wish it weren’t so it’s very depressing to think about.

   doro, you may have popup blocker on and that may be preventing you from launching the video.

    Mash, Robbie, thanks for your tips. Unfortunately ist looks like I’ve come across one of the plentiful firewall settings my husband shields his computer with. And I’d better not change any of those, being a complete computer moron, I’d only mess everything up. Sigh…

    Thanks a lot anyway.

    Greetings,

    Doro
