Mark Penn is a genius who undoubtedly arranged this matter to allow himself to get clear of the sinking ship and to afford himself plausible deniability for his large role as architect of a vessel that was unable to withstand what has been undeniably a perfect political storm.

(It pleases me that Hillary, who is nothing if not a skilled and disciplined pol, is being sucked under and denied the prize by pure ill fortune. She has been paralyzed by the Barak candidacy, every avenue of response or attack blocked! Couldn’t happen to a nicer witch! She will spend the rest of her life in righteous rage at the injustice of it! I love it.)

Was Shrillary before the Columbian Free Trade Agreement before she was against it? Is this like NAFTA? Inquiring minds really do want to know!

Bingo. Which leads me to another question: Did HRC really not know what he was doing? Or was this one of those Do as I say, not as I do moments?

Like she verbally has the stance to appease the democratic-bloc of Union members, but she knows that this agreement is good for the national interest, so she was trying to support it behind the scenes and let Congress take the fall for getting it approved?

If it’s the latter, what other October Surprises™ to we have waiting for us from the democratic nominee? That once a democrat is elected we’ll have serious peace talks with Hamas or Al-Queta and have peace in our time by late January? (except for the fact that we’ll have government sponsored and Sharia approved universal health care, with only halal foods allowed or served in public schools, etc…)

But Tennessee Dave may have really hit the nail on the head; Mark Penn moved on BEFORE he could be Vince-Fosterized!

Right down the line of American trade there has been the employment of the Bush version of free trade that is code for screw America agreements. The other side of the coin is fair trade. Bush wants free trade. Many in congress want fair trade. Mark Penn might have been a free trade guy in a fair trade camp. Off with his head. Note: perhaps because Columbia is an ally they should also go the screw America benefits.

I wonder if Penns exit means he forfeits the 2-3 million Clinton owes his firm.

The women that post on this site have to be as offended as most women in American have to be that Hillary has been acclaimed as the “smartest women in the world” huh?
Anyone that believes that tripe is or was obviously delusional.
I’m luvin this…bubba got caught, he is squiring like he has never done before. I’m not so sure he’s not scared poopless. He’s made promises it looks like he will not be able to keep… now ain’t that sumpin. Can’t help but luv it…hey, Judy, justice.
Here’s the way i see it from a lyman’s point of view. We’re done with the destructive policies and actions of the Clintoons, about damn time…(gd Ross Perot). Obadman is a fraud from the get go…he is a racist, communist elitist. The American public, sheeple included will not allow this clown in office. McShamanesty will be the in the WH, sorry to say. Then we have to harp, push, pull and threaten with our votes to keep some semblance of sanity in our country until 2012 or a conservative VPtakes office after unfortunate death of the president…god forbid.
If all the so called political pun dents can be wrong 90 %of the time I too have had a vision.
