Hillary is at it again:

The former first lady says she has become convinced the Republican administration wants "to undo the New Deal," the Roosevelt-era policies that ushered in Social Security and a host of other governmental assistance programs.

She said that Bush, who campaigned as a "compassionate conservative" in 2000, had taken a "hard-right turn to pursue an extremist agenda" after moving into the White House.

"I don't know where it came from, but the fact is that this President Bush has not only been radical and extreme in terms of Democratic presidents but in terms of Republican presidents, including his own father," she says.

She believes Bush is beatable next year because his administration is "making America less free, fair, strong, smart than it deserves to be in a dangerous world."

"We have to change direction before irreparable harm is done," she adds.

"This administration is in danger of being the first in American history to leave our nation worse off than when they found it."


Perhaps she didn't remember the Medicare overhaul in the last month. What about the education bill signed with Ted Kennedy. What freedoms do we no longer have that were present during Slick Willy's administration? How are we less strong? The Clinton administration showed our weakness as none had before. Fair? Do you think she means taking the Israeli side in their battles against Arafat? Smart? If we go by the loss of sanity of liberals and Democrats, she may just have a point. As for leaving the nation worse off than any other, well the September 11 attacks were a direct result of us doing nothing in response to the attacks on the USS Cole and the african embassy attacks as well as pulling out of Somalia when things got tough. I'd argue that the security of the nation was left drastically worse by Clinton and Albright.
