The reason for mandatory IQ tests at the voting booth

I am a reporter for RNC News Channel 3. I am doing a exit poll at a Democratic primary with my camera crew. It doesn't matter what state.

A young lady walks out chewing gum incessantly. She appears to be about 21 years old.

"Hold on. Here she comes. As I approach her she realizes she's on TV. I detect the excitement in her eyes."

"Hi, I'm with RNC News do you mind if I ask you a few questions?"

"Sure." She says in a bubbly voice.

"Who did you vote for?"

"Obama." She gestures 2 thumbs up with a broad smile on her face. She's still chewing the gum.

"May I ask why?"

"My girl friend Sue called me last night and told me to." She gives the gum a couple of quick chews.

"Do you know how long Obama has been in office?"

"I dunno." The gum chewing slows a little.

"Is Obama a Congressman or a Senator?" The gum chewing stops.

"I dunno." Then she starts chewing the gum faster and a big smile comes over her face. "But he sure is cute!"

"Well thanks for taking the time to talk to us."

"No problem." She looks at the camera with a certain look of satisfaction; puts her hands in the back pockets of her jeans, and still chewing her gum, walks away.

Tell me where I'm going wrong

I will take a simple approach. There are Democrats and Republicans. No argument there. Let's look at the Clinton's for a moment. Just think about them for a second......... OK, time is up. Now suppose, just suppose the Nixon's are alive. Pat is 64, Dick is 67. They want to get back in the White House but Dick knows he can't get a third term. So he runs his wife. (I guess you know where I'm going with this but hang on). As you know the Clinton's had the most scandal ridden administration of all time.

But wait, the Nixon's administration wasn't exactly Snow White. Democrats could certainly put forth a strong case about the scandals and corruption of his administration, although, he did have enough integrity to resign, rather then be impeached, unlike some people I know. That said, if he were running today (sorry, I meant his wife) with the rest of the Republican field there would be no way in hell I or the vast majority of Republicans would vote for him (I mean her).

He was exposed for what he is, and for his actions. Also, the Media would have a field day putting Nixon through a meat grinder while the Clinton's gets a free ride. I happen to like Nixon, but there's no way he's going back to the oval office.

So, why in the world as a Democrat would you want Billiary back in the White House? An impeached, disbarred, x-president! A disgrace to the nation! The butt of late night talk show jokes! Baggage that a freight train couldn't handle! This is the best that they could come up with? Think about what will happen if they get in. We will regurgitate all the Clinton scandals. Not to mention, start a slew of new ones. Sounds appealing doesn't it. The buzz word in politics now is change. 'We want change'. Where in the hell is the change in this? Tell me where I'm going wrong. Don't believe me? Punch in "Clinton scandals" on Google. Your computer will blow a gasket!

Watch where his right hand goes

Hillary Clinton admitted today her husband Bill's hard-charging campaign tactics had gone overboard, but chalked the ex-president's fiery broadsides up to love and a chronic lack of sleep.

A day after rival Barack Obama trounced her in the South Carolina primary, the former first lady also mounted a vigorous defence of the two Clinton White House terms, which Obama has said did not spark transformational change.

Clinton was asked on CBS television's Face the Nation whether her husband was "out of control" after he took the Illinois senator, and the media to task, during a foul-tempered week-long campaign.

"You know, my husband has such a great commitment to me and to my campaign," the New York senator said.

"He loves me just like, you know, husbands and wives get out there and work on each others' behalf." ( What did they used to say. "Gag me with a spoon" )

She blamed the tensions of the tight battle for the party's presidential nomination

"Maybe he got a little carried away. You know, that comes with a hard-fought election," she said

The Clinton's aka "Billiary"

I like to watch Dick Morris. Most of his views on the political landscape and the strategies of politicians are dead on. He brought up the fact that Hilliary says the Sovereign Wealth Funds needs to be scrutinized and more transparent. ( Some critics worry that foreign investment by sovereign wealth funds raises national security concerns because the purpose of the investment might be to secure control of strategically-important industries for political rather than financial gain. )

This is kind of funny coming from her since the Saudi-Royal Family gave a $10 million donation for the Clinton Library. Also, this one kills me, Bill Clinton is an investment advisor to the Ameer of Dubai and is paid $10 million a year in salary!

The Clinton's are liars, liars, liars. Nixon compared to the Clinton's was a shoplifter.

Getting back to the library. What a fucking scam job that is. Here we got a library that cost a whopping $165 million built as a monument to the most scandal riddled administration of all time. A tribute to an impeached, disbarred, x-president. A disgrace to the nation. America, in and even more despicable act, is actually contemplating putting these two lying bastards back in the White House! God help us.
