It Takes a Nanny State
Apparently to burnish her intellectual credentials as part of the overextended run-up to the 2008 elections, Hillary Clinton has reissued her 1996 manifesto "It Takes a Village," and will soon be appearing on the carnival of moonbattery known as The View to hawk this paean to state-based child raising.
As summed up by Human Events, the book dismisses the traditional family as inappropriate for the modern world. "The village" — i.e., government bureaucracy — should take its place.
This point of view may explain why Shrillary opposed relief from the marriage tax, and favors publicly financed divorce — which she would treat as "a public health issue," presumably covered under HillaryCare.
Shrillary admires the disintegrating dystopia France, where kids are full-time students in government schools by the time they turn 3, although she grudgingly acknowledges that doing things the French way isn't feasible here because Americans would not put up with the crippling tax rates required.
Europe is also praised for the high rate of contraception that is depopulating some countries toward nonexistence, and forcing them to import massive numbers of Muslims. Bizarrely, she spins abortion as good for children — or at least, good for the ones who don't get aborted.
The book touches on Hillary's desire for media control. It suggests that childcare advice "could be running continuously in doctors' offices, clinics, hospitals, motor vehicle offices, or any place where people have to gather and wait." It also calls for the news to "balance" violent stories with "positive images of themselves and those around them, taking care not to exacerbate negative stereotypes." In other words, the mainstream media should further distort the news for the sake of advancing her political agenda.
This book being released again now indicates that Hillary hasn't had many new thoughts over the last decade — or at least not many she cares to share with the public.

I think you should have used Hillary for the construction worker...she has a better chest for it.

So who wears the strap-on? James, er, Janet Reno or Hitlery? Do they take turns?

Here's part of that "It Takes A Village" Principle in action: Hippie Food Co-Ops Losing Members and Inventory to Crime.
But, I thought, like, hippies didn't believe in property. I thought, like, everything belonged to everybody.

Americans had better wake up fast. The Democrat Party is sliding further and further into socialism. It is scary beyond description. Hillary said that she was going to take things away from us for the common good, and she is the #1 PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE?? And the Republicans offer whom?? John-America-is-a-creed-not-a-nation-we-should-have-open-borders McCain??? Or, perhaps Rudy supports-same-sex-marriage-anti-second-amendment-pro-abortion Guiliani???? Anyone see a problem for America??

Wake Up Fools will tell us that Hillary style socialism is exactly what our racist, homophobic, corporate run country needs.

Liberals are so confident in their power that they are dropping their masks to show their communist selves.
