I am not in any way directly affiliated with the Clinton campaign. I happen to be an intelligent highly educated person who cares about the truth, and supports Hillary Clinton.
I have never done much blogging, but I did become interested when I saw how the media was being so unfairly biased, as Kate Walsh herself has noted.
I googled some article that brought me here. But I am flattered that you think I am some paid spokesperson.
I wrote one other posting that said "cadence for candence."
If you look closely, I have commented on other subjects, but this is the one that means the most to me.
*** Obama's campaign can't be making an issue about Hillary's "we're going to be fine" line -- because that is "silly season" -- Obama said that himself. ***
They're not trying to make something of it, you halfwit. Hillary was. The only thing Obama's camp has pointed out is her boundless hypocrisy for doing exactly what she cynically criticized him for.
But please, you guys keep talking about this crap while the clock runs out. Tick tock, tick tock.
Deeper Truth: "Most of the money the Clintons have made, have been from Bill Clinton's speaking engagements around the world. He has been one of the most sought-out speakers now for many years."
Clinton may have made a lot of money from speaking engagements, but both he and Hillary have made tons of money from book advances. Check out this Salon article:
http://archive.salon.com/politics/feature/2000/12/19/clinton/index.html
It details the problems Hillary Clinton encountered when her record-breaking $8 million book advance. It seems that there were strong concerns that Hillary had committed an ethics violation, because such a huge advance (from a Viacom company, Simon & Schuster) can easily be seen as a back-door political contribution.

How nice to know that you care about the truth.
If you care so much about the truth, how about looking at the link I provided and explaining how it isn't an instance of, if not plagiarism, then wholly unoriginal copycatism?
Here it is again:

I have a feeling that if Hillary used a speech word for word, and virtually cadence for cadence, you'd be making a really big deal out of it, and attacking her for it.
See?
She is just repeating some catch phrases like I said, and look at the big deal you are trying to make out of it.
You are just so biased.
Somehow Obama repeats a speech like a recording, and it's no big deal.
But Hillary repeats some catch phrases, and you act like it's "so wrong."
You have such a double standard - it is truly ridiculous.
DeeperTruth: "I have a feeling that if Hillary used a speech word for word, and virtually cadence for cadence, you'd be making a really big deal out of it, and attacking her for it."
Really? That's your only response? If you think that's the case, then you must have missed the 23 other posts where I specifically stated that the problem is Hillary's hypocrisy, not her copying. My point is that Hillary Clinton bent over backwards to use a bogus and petty "plagiarism" charge as a central attack. Then, in the very same debate, she copied not one but two different people's closing rhetorical devices/phrases.
Here is the link again, in case you missed it:

Did you look at it, or don't your computer's speakers work? Did you look, in particular, at how Hillary copied Bill Clinton's statement about "the hits I've taken in this campaign are nothing compared to the hits the American people take every single day"?
Maybe the words are a little jumbled around here and there, but the overall structure is the same. Heck, even the "cadence" is the same. What do you make of that, since you're obviously very concerned about cadence?
By the way, I scrolled through your posts. OUt of 63 messages, 62 were specifically about "Hillary is great!" or "Obama isn't fit for office!" Maybe you're not a paid scribe for the Clinton campaign, but I do think it's worth pointing out.
(Don't worry, when there are obvious Obama shills, like somebody named mkoch or something similar to that, I have called them out as well.)
You do realize that HRC got booed in Texas when she used that ridiculous Xerox line, right?
That line of attack is pure Fail and yet you keep trying to get mileage out of it. Hillary is not retarded, she realizes this. Note that you have seen not so much as a peep out of her since then about this talking point that completely backfired. Why haven't her minions gotten the memo yet? Have you guys accidently unsubscribed to your talking poitns emails? Get with the program! "obama is a plagarist" is so last week!
Oh, my Hutman!
You mean - the Clintons have made money for writing books and being hired for speaking engagements?
They are "so" evil?
How could I not have known? (Although I did, and it's all legitmate and respectable.)
But - there is nothing more base and evil and bad and wrong than books and speeches. And advancements - they never happen to anyone else. I'm sure Barack didn't get any advances on any of his books.
And I am sure all the money Barack will make on future books and speeches will all be pure bad and evil.
Please, can you be more ridiculous?
Because we all know that these exaggerations and smears you are making are just what our country needs to be better.
DeeperTruth: "She is just repeating some catch phrases like I said, and look at the big deal you are trying to make out of it."
So you admit that she repeated a catch phrase from Bill Clinton's campaign 15 years earlier? I think we're making some progress here!
Yes, Hillary did indeed copy a key catchphrase from Bill Clinton. I am glad you admit this. It wouldn't be such a "big deal" in and of itself (not worth posting repeatedly about, anyway), but it certainly becomes a big deal when one of Hillary's key charges is against somebody else's "Xeroxing" of words.
DeeperTruth: "You are just so biased."
....and you're not? 62 out of 63 of your posts can be summarized with "Hillary is great, Obama's not fit for office" and you're not biased? Uh huh...
DeeperTruth: "Somehow Obama repeats a speech like a recording, and it's no big deal."
Wait -- I thought you said you were concerned with truth? What happened? Obama didn't "repeat a speech." He repeated three sentences. Three.
DeeperTruth: "But Hillary repeats some catch phrases, and you act like it's "so wrong." You have such a double standard - it is truly ridiculous."
Actually the double-standard is yours. Your double standard is that you think it's okay for somebody to go to great lengths in pointing out a flaw in another, but it's not okay for people to respond to this by demonstrating that she also has exhibited this flaw.
