Says our resident Brad Pitt . . .

Undoubtably she had servants take her exams at Radcliffe and Columbia. Ever the slacker, she was only in the top 10% of her law class.

B.F.D. George Bush went to Harvard & Yale. Guess how that turned out

If there was any hint that she was qualified, then fine, but there wasn't and hopefully this will put an end to the Kennedy Dynasty in American Politics.
I was born after JFK and have grown up with Kennedy this and that in the news ad nauseam.
It's that same attitude of inevitable entitlement that HRC had.
Enough already.

GWB's, aka "43", educational history is a story all to itself.

Do tell.

She seems like a decent person for all I can tell.

I do know that during the primary battles she appeared here in Lafayette briefly...which amazed me. She was campaigning for O. I stood in line for about an hour and a half with my lovely #2 daughter and when I heard that her speach had begun I decided to leave because I was absolutely certain that she would not come out and mix with 300 people who had not been checked out for weapons etc. (and my knee hurt).

So about ten minutes after we left she came out and shook everybody's hand.

At first I was excited that she might get the seat her uncle Bobby and Hillary held before her, but I was pretty amazed that she was weak on the stump.

I am sure the seat will go to someone who has "earned" it politically.

Ms. Gillibrand comes from a politically sophisticated family: her father was an attorney and lobbyist with ties to George Pataki; her grandmother was a prominent Democratic activist in Albany who brought Ms. Gillibrand along with her on the campaign trail.

http://topics.nytimes.com/top/reference/timestopics/people/g/kirsten_gillibrand/index.html

Ms. Gillibrand’s political education took shape around her childhood dinner table. Her father, Douglas P. Rutnik, is a prominent state lobbyist who once dated Zenia Mucha, a senior aide to former Gov. George E. Pataki. Her grandmother Polly Noonan played a sophisticated brand of machine politics as a close adviser to the legendary Erastus Corning, mayor of Albany; Ms. Gillibrand has described licking stamps for campaign fliers as a child and listening to all that delicious political talk.

Letting the Governor of any State pick the peoples' replacement for someone that jumped office for "greener fields" takes the rights of the people away from them and subjects those rights to "highest bidder" - regardless whether the FBI is listening in, or not...

The argument that "...it will "take too long/cost too much/interupt my TV-schedule" to come up w/a special election..." B.S. is just what those in power want everyone to believe...

Fact is...government running too fast is probably more dangerous than not having enough folks there to begin with...

Let's take a look at something here...passing legislation WITHOUT taking the time to go over ALL possible scenarios of how, or what, that legislation could mean to ALL THE PEOPLE THAT MAY/WILL/ARE EFFECTED BY IT is a bad thing...because you have to go back and re-write corrective legislation, or close loop-holes (if the people hold your toes to the fire) and in the end, it becomes another document that sits unknown on the legal shelves of history 'til someone needs a "creative fix" that can be applied...then the "magic pill" appears from nowhere and it's used to fix a problem...usually a criminal action justification...

Consider this...in the 200+ years that we've been a republic...at what points have we REQUIRED immediate governmental action on anything?

War, Steps Leading Up To War and related themes...

And, generally, how has the voting been on those themes? Definately over 50%...never so close that there's been a re-do? Right?

So, what's the rush?

Let the people have the elections...put up with a 1-month campaign...knock out everyone except the top three vote getters, then run the top two off a cliff, and swear in the third place guy...

Listen...with few exceptions, the number one/two persons picked on each team of the NFL Drafts have been busts for over the past 10 years...they've either been idiots, physically turned into chemical freaks, mentally couldn't get along with themselves (let alone a whole team) or are infected with an agent that has "payday" tattooed on his brain. All related to something closely associated with "entitlement."

No one is owed a job in the US...

The ones that really matter? It's, usually, the 3rd rounders, and lower, that get the job done, work the hardest and ask for the least...they're just happy to be on the team, at all, in the first place...and they seem to work the hardest FOR THE TEAM when push comes to shove...

We need more of that from our legislators and less of the "I won so it's time to have everyone just KMA!!!"

In the Olympics (There's a bastion of honesty for ya'... ), at least they throw out the top and bottom score for something THEY realize is a bit more real...maybe it's time we do the same...

Can't make anything worse than what we're dealing with right now...
