Nosathro -> Hilary R. Clinton.."Whatever I've done, I compied with Senate Rules.. (6/1/2007 11:11:59 AM)
In Sen. Hillary Clinton presidential campaign she has spoken out against Corperate CEO excessive perks and spending. Yet, she has not trouble with being a benefactor of the CEO spending company money on her. As reported bey The Associated Press article by Kathleen Hennessey. It seems Sen. Clinton has been the recepient of some $900,000.00 in paid travel by Private Jet from Vinod Gupta, CEO of InfoUSA Inc. and long time contributor the Clintons political activities. Oh, and Bill is on the payroll of InfoUSA Inc. as a Consultant thanks to Vinod Gupta. This has recently all come to the public due the the Shareholder lawsuit against Vindo Gupta spending practices in which the air travel for the Clinton is mentioned. Sen. Clinton as been quoted as saying.."Whatever I've done, I complied with Senate rules at that time. That's the way every senator operates. Those are the rules. You'll have to ask sombody else whether that's policy." Sen. Clinton has also meet with some 200 CEO of High Tech Companies to discuss her increasing the so called H1B visa program. Under this program companies can have foreigners come to America to work in High Tech fields, mostly due to a shortage of American trained High Tech people. However, as it has been pointed out, it's the companies that state there is a shortage and those coming into the US, work for far less than what they should be paid and the companies get a tax break as well. And many trained High Tech Americans go unemployed. Sen. Clinton has also stated that that she if elected would provide financial support for schools who encourage girls and minorities to study subjects like science, technology, engineering and math.

So she's a sellout. Does that surprise anyone? And does it surprise anyone that Big Business is making our laws by "contributing" to politicians?

I have lost all faith in politics. You could find something wrong with every canadate, whether it be their policies, their voting record or what they do when no one is watching. I am VERY ready for a woman president, however, not THIS one.

What I don't understand is why, if she was so good at it, didn't she get out of law and politics and stay in the futures game? I mean she made $100,000 on cattle futures on her first shot out of the gate and she QUITS?

There are techies, and there are techies. Picking up the phone, typing up a ticket, and telling someone to reboot is all well and good, and puts food on the table and shit, but that kind of crap isn't exactly innovation, it's a call center. That said, I hear they're closing down the trading floor on Wall Street, since the hybrid systems got everything pretty much online.

They said on Lou Dobbs tonight that Hillary has been using Silicon Valley like an ATM machine. So I guess that means she'll be voting for even more H1B Visas that we don't need.

Real, the Big Corporations in Silicon Valley are,...evidently,...giving Hillary Clinton's campaign million$.

Nosathro -> RE: Hilary R. Clinton.."Whatever I've done, I compied with Senate Rules.. (6/1/2007 9:15:51 PM)
You are correct. The meeting with the CEOs was mostly from Silicon Valley Corporations..and held in Silicon Valley. The High Tech jobs that are in short supply as they say are in Engineering, Computer Software, Programing areas. In a 60 Minutes program, Computer Programers were being brought in from India due to a so called shortage, they were paid an annual salary of $25,000 where by labor statics such people would be paid around $40,000 to start. quote: ORIGINAL: popeye1250 Real, the Big Corporations in Silicon Valley are,...evidently,...giving Hillary Clinton's campaign million$.

Republicans are such whiney little bitches and so fucking short sighted and stupid. THIS is the issue you think we need to deal with? Bush has us bogged down in two wars, both of which we are not only losing militarily but politically and diplomatically all while our real enemies are growing in both strength and numbers. But you want to whine about who is paying for Hillary's travel? Sounds like a repeat of WWII where Republicans kept Democrats from fighting Hitler and Japan and wouldn't let Democrats arm America for the comming war. Funny how history repeats itself.

If you obey the rules, there isn't anything to be "caught" on. The OP is just whining to distract the really stupid with something shiny, apparently it is easier than I thought.

I think many of us here, including you, know how easy it is to distract the really stupid with shiny objects. Shinergy
