NEW ORLEANS — Democrat Barack Obama suggested Thursday that Hillary Rodham Clinton follow his lead and release her and her husband's income tax returns so the public can see where the $5 million she loaned her presidential campaign came from. A day earlier, Clinton acknowledged that she had

No surprise there. And, of course, they'll concoct some crap to go alongside it. I've heard that the second series of Sarah Jane is somewhat *less* child-friendly, closer to Torchwood in spots. Tracey de Morsella (formerly Tracey L. Minor) [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:

I always thought that they did the vampire/mystery better than the one that was based directly on Tanya Huff's vampire/mystery. I like the show, but the way they write the character of the actress lead gets on my nerves at times. Lordy, I am so tired of the archetype of a blond spunky

I find the article unclear as to what Sen. Obama actually suggested and who initiated the topic. It seems from the article that he did not bring up the subject of the Clinton's Tax returns. I think the headline is remarkably misleading as is the actual nature of the story. Asked whether he would

Point taken. If he is going to change his position to fit a conservative base, it shouldn't need to be adjusted every day. And he certainly needs to be honest enough to admit that is what he is doing. However, I can't say that the same problem doesn't exist on the Democratic site. Hillary has

When I first heard about this loan, my mind went back to a story I heard, just before Hillary began her campaign for the NY Senate seat, that she and Bill were both fairly cash-poor. Given that, this act raised a huge red flag for me. But I don't think that Obama was terribly bright in saying

In the story below they make it pretty clear that Obama did not ask, the press asked him if he thought she should and he said he did not know but that he did and that one of his campaign platforms is full transparency. He added that he did disclose his. I don't think it was unwise in that
