Clinton furious over Obama's mailings

By BETH FOUHY
Associated Press Writer




CINCINNATI (AP) -- Hillary Rodham Clinton angrily accused her Democratic rival Saturday of deliberately misrepresenting her positions on NAFTA and health care in mass mailings to voters, adding, "Shame on you, Barack Obama."

Clutching two of Obama campaign mailings in her hand for emphasis, the former first lady said, "enough with the speeches and the big rallies and then using tactics that are right out of Karl Rove's playbook."

Obama defended the mailings as accurate and rejected Clinton's complaint as a political ploy. He said that despite her current criticism of NAFTA, she supported the trade agreement when it passed during her husband's administration.

"You can't be for something and take credit for an administration ... and then when you run for president say that you didn't really mean what you said way back then. It doesn't work like that," he said to cheers at a rally in Akron.

The long distance clash erupted as the two Democrats campaigned separately across Ohio, one of two big states with primaries on March 4.

Obama has won 11 straight primaries and caucuses, and some of Clinton's supporters have said she must win both Ohio and Texas a week from Tuesday to keep her hopes alive of winning the party nomination. Recent polls show Ohio is close, and Texas closer.

Clinton's frustration was evident as she criticized Obama in unusually strong terms - a few days after ending a nationally televised debate by saying she was "honored to be here with" him in a historic race between a black man and a woman.

She said by his actions, Obama was giving "aid and comfort to the very special interests and their allies in the Republican Party who are against doing what we want to do for America."

"Meet me in Ohio," she said. "Let's have a debate about your tactics and your behavior in this campaign." The two are scheduled to debate Tuesday in Cleveland.

In her criticism of Obama, she asked, "Since when do Democrats attack one another on universal health care?"

Obama had a ready reply to that. "Well, when she started to say I was against universal health care ... which she does every single day," he said.

Since late last year, Clinton has consistently attacked Obama's health care plan, saying it would leave 15 million Americans uninsured.

Clinton's advisers have repeatedly criticized the Obama campaign's mailings, both of which went out in the last several days.

One says her plan for universal coverage would "force" everyone to purchase insurance even if they can't afford it. Her plan requires everyone to be covered, but it offers tax credits and other subsidies to make insurance more affordable.

Obama's plan does not include the so-called "individual mandate" for adults, and he has argued that people cannot be required to buy coverage if they can't afford it. He has said his first priority is bringing down costs.

The Illinois senator's plan does include a mandate requiring parents to buy health insurance to cover children.

The second mailing, on the North American Free Trade Agreement, quotes a 2006 Newsday article suggesting Clinton believed the agreement had been a "boon" to the economy. NAFTA and other trade agreements are extremely unpopular in Ohio, which has suffered an exodus of blue-collar jobs to other countries in part due to such agreements.

It's a particularly sensitive matter for Clinton, whose husband championed and pushed for passage of the agreement as president. She is counting on the support of white, working class voters in the state.

"I am fighting to change NAFTA," she insisted. "Neither of us were in the Senate when NAFTA passed. Neither voted one way or the other."

Clinton said Newsday had corrected the record about her views on the agreement. Indeed, the paper published a blog item earlier this month saying Obama's use of the word "boon" was unfair.

"Obama's use of the citation in this way does strike us as misleading," the paper said. "The quote marks make it look as if Hillary said "boon," not us. It's an example of the kind of slim reeds campaigns use to try to win an office."

Earlier, Newsday published an item saying the word "boon" had been the paper's "characterization of how we best understood her position on NAFTA, based on a review of past stories and her public statements."

As evidence of their concern about the issue, the Clinton campaign released two new ads in Ohio, including one featuring John Glenn - a former astronaut and U.S. senator from Ohio for 24 years - saying Clinton would fix trade agreements like NAFTA.

Clinton said she felt good about her prospects in Ohio and Texas but refused to say whether she needed to win both states to stay in the race.

"Let's let the people of Ohio vote. Let's actually have an election and then we can look at the results," she said.

I agree! They were exposed and now they have to hide and work behind closed doors.

Apparently, though, there are still plenty of business elites and certain members of Congress and the Senate who still plan to pursue the SPP, but for right now, without the full force power of the Bush Administration.

THE TRAITORS NEED TO BE WEEDED OUT. Who needs the "full force power of the Bush Administration", when we have NEW TRAITORS running for office that want the SPP, NAU, and NEW MILITARYS?

Here's some of the poop scoop on the TP/TPN, including the list of U.S. Senators and House members who are actively involved, from their website at:

http://www.tpnonline.org/about.html

Interestingly, Bill Clinton signed the original "New Transatlantic Agenda" in 1995, so you know Hitlery is well aware of this! Also, within the last few weeks I saw a brief news clip where someone asked her about the NAU and she denied knowing anything about it! Then again, it may have been an issue of semantics from the use of the term NAU.

I WISH THESE FRICKIN' POLITICIANS WOULD STOP INSULTING OUR INTELLIGENCE AND BE OPEN AND TRUTHFUL FOR A CHANGE. AS CITIZENS, WE DESERVE ABSOLUTE TRANSPARENCY!!!

The Transatlantic Partnership
Invaluable, Indispensable, Irreplaceable

Working together during the last 60 years, the United States and the countries of Western Europe have reshaped the world: strengthening global peace and security, preserving and promoting democracy, opening up trade and promoting higher standards of living for more people, in more countries, more quickly than at any time in history.

Part of Europe's contribution to this achievement has been the European Union, a unique political creation that is becoming an increasingly confident and valued partner of the US. Having already delivered a great deal, the potential growth and development of the Partnership promises even more.

In December 1995, the two sides signed a practical, step by step work plan: the New Transatlantic Agenda. In it, they pledged close collaboration to:

* promote peace and stability, democracy and development;
* expand world trade;
* grow their own commercial ties and build bridges between industries, companies and peoples in Europe and the US;
* respond to new global challenges like drug trafficking and terrorism.

The transatlantic partnership is now looking to the future. There has been renewed interest to strengthen the EU/US relationship, as shown by the visit of President Bush in February 2005 to the EU institutions, the first US President to do so. As a result, there is a growing impetus to remove the remaining barriers to trade and investment through the Transatlantic Economic Initiative (2005) as well to increasingly work together to face global challenges. Detailed conclusions agreed at the recent US-EU Summits testify to this deepening relationship.

Strengthening those interests and defining those objectives is part of the purpose of the Transatlantic Policy Network.

An Introduction

We warmly welcome the creation of the Transatlantic Policy Network (TPN) and congratulate those who have been involved in establishing it.

The values and interests we share together make the EU/US relationship a vital one for our mutual prosperity. We attach a great deal of importance to an intensified transatlantic dialogue on a strategic level in which politicians and representatives of the business community participate bearing in mind that such a dialogue should contribute to greater cooperation and understanding globally.

We are confident that the TPN is helping to foster a new spirit of cooperation and contributes to positive policy developments at an international level. We look forward to continued success for the TPN. It is a pleasure for us to be involved as Honorary Presidents.

The TPN Mission
Building Tomorrow's Partnership Today

The Transatlantic Policy Network (TPN) is a non-governmental network firmly rooted in the worlds of business and politics, but also open to administrators and academics on both sides of the Atlantic .

Its mission statement is built on four central purposes, to:

* help to define the transatlantic relationship in the post-Cold War world and to promote the closest possible partnership between the governments and peoples of the European Union and the United States to ensure global security, economic growth and stability and the enhancement of democratic values;

* use dialogue, debate and study to help both transatlantic partners to adjust to new challenges and opportunities, to identify their common interests and to minimise actual or potential misunderstandings between governments and between business and governments;

* look beyond current issues towards new structures and forms of cooperation between the European Union and the United States;

* work creatively and effectively through the network with other institutions and organisations with complementary purposes.

Agenda

As indicated in its 10-point, 10-year Action Plan for Strengthening Transatlantic Partnership, TPN's agenda for the coming years is to promote and support actions to complete a transatlantic market linked to a strengthened political and security relationship adapted to the needs of the 21 st century. To accomplish this, TPN believes that the EU and US will need to adapt the existing transatlantic institutional framework to take account of the evolution of our common purposes and priorities, allowing issues to drive the framework, rather than the other way around.

TPN has proposed, with support from Resolutions taken by the European Parliament and the US House of Representatives, that EU and US leaders come to agreement on the major elements of a new, formal “Transatlantic Partnership Agreement.â€

Very true, however since their agenda is not for the good of the country of Americans they must keep things muddy with the hope of fooling us into submission to accomplish their globalist desires!!!! We have to stay on them and not give an inch!

Unfortunately, so very true, April!

Thank goodness for the information age, which I'm sure they despise, as it is forces more and more transparency upon them against their will! The shoe is on the other foot for a change!

I know this sounds like a broken record, but if Ron Paul does go to the convetion and somehow pulls it off, or if he goes independent, I think he would be our best bet. Some people are afraid of his forein policy, he says that if we can redo our trade poicies and make them more beneficial to us there will be too much money inolved to go to war. Also, not everybody wants deocracy. Leave them alone and let them live the way they want. Our leaders are so full of themselves thinking they know what is good for everybody, including us. We are moving towards socialist government. We are the everlovin nanny state where uncle knows best. When we let them foot the tab for our healthcare, they think they will have the right to start dictating to us what and when we can eat, they are aleady trying. They are already trying to regulate vitamins. They are already indoctrinating our children in schools by telling us that they have a right to teach our kid altenative lifestyles. We no longer have a say in what our kids learn in school. Ron Paul is for homeschooling and getting our government out of our school system and puting it back into the hands of local governments to where you will have better control. He does not want the NAFTA highway, wants us to able to use other money that is not strictly printed by the mint. Wants the airlines to handle their own scurity. He want to get rid of the DHS, national id, real id, make gun permits given in Texas to be recognized in Calif or wherever else. I eally do not see why peopl have so much of a problem with him, Everything you talk about on this site is what he is stands for and you will find in him a person that will LISTEN to the peoples will and uphold the Consitution.

They need realize that we are out here and we are no longer going to be walked on!!! IF we keep the pressure on it might soak in that we are not going away!
