Country Corruption Index

[Lurchi]

The conservatives are really afraid of Hillary, aren't they?
Maybe they believe that she will make it and become President? I think so!

But okay, here is a funny thing i noticed about this list: On the right upper side there is a Dr. Otto Graf Lambsdorff mentioned who is obviously now Professor at the University of Passau ... well, he is also a former Politician of the Liberal Party and german Ex Minister (Finance/Economy i am not sure) who was sentenced for tax fraud! :rotfl:

This makes him really competent as HE certainly knows what corruption is!

Not really. What scares me is that allthough I know it is technically impossible for her to be voted into office, she is still in Congress and still a force to be reckoned with. Her and D. Feinstein. Crazy that we allow them to the position where they are now. Of course, New York and Kalifornia are known for bringing left wing whackos into office and there is nothing the other 48 states can do about it. That is why Hillary moved to New York - she didn't live there but knew she could get the win for Congress - a win that would be difficult and impossible in nearly any other state.

How is it technically impossible? What do you mean?

She is universally untrusted already. I hope she gets the nomination since it will then make her Republican challenger have an easier time of winning.

So when you say "technically impossible," you really meant "universally untrusted," but what you should really be saying is that "preliminary polls currently place Clinton equal or +/- a few percentage points to Democratic and Republican rivals." I see.

I found this thread under the couch when I was cleaning.


...Hillary not trusted. huh, didn't see that one coming. I wrote this posting while I was under heavy serbian sniper fire. I remeber the posting well, just like it was 10 seconds ago...

I finished my lunch, when I was warned of an imminent attack of NVA SAMs... I put my aluminium helmet on as I wrote this posting. Then heavy artillery fire opened up on us as I typed faster while I was in a trench with Jimbuna waiting for the Germans to attack us. The gas bell rang, I remeber that distinctly, I put my gas mask on as the Japanese planes flew over as I hit "send"

Don't believe that for a minute Subman! The revolution will come....err.... I mean Hillary will win.

I hope you know the words to the internationale and have your red flag ready.........desenters will be sent for 're-education'.

In fact better play safe and have a few copies of Das Kapital lying around just in case.

The politician I will vote for, in a flash, without any reservation, is the one who says he's in it for the kickbacks, the ego trip and the chance to hire a D-cup intern. At least I know he tells the truth, which puts him light-years ahead of the pack.

Ah, now i see it - my fault. The two are just relatives and Otto is quite famous here for this whole tax affair .

I am also interested to know why it is 'technically' impossible for Hillary to be elected as President. Okay, i am not so familiar with US inner politics but i think she has a good chance - especially when she is able to mobilize the female nonvoters to go to elections this time.
