Clinton Blog

Monday is Clinton Blog Day!

Well, this monday is.

First up: Stop Hillary Now!
"Stopping Hillary Rodham Clinton is the most important thing you and I can do as Republicans in the next two years," says the fund-raising appeal sent out by Stephen Minarik (New York GOP Chairman). "You could say it's our duty as Republicans."

Wow. Of all the concerns of the world, this is the most important. The I guess that this forceful anti-Hil direction at this point (at least a year prior to ANYBODY making any significant decisions) points toward the absolute fear of empowered Repos losing their edge and status. The thing is, and I hope that WE all realize this as well, Hil doesn't have to be our only weapon. Step up, boys, step up to the challenge...

Clinton number two: AIDS

That an ex-president continues to work to raise funding for the pressing issues of the immediate future, in a very real sense, is fascinating to me. $10 million is nothing compared to what is needed, and Bill knows it. But his statement is this: the AIDS Pandemic and the African poverty situation will be at the center of the the major global crises of the coming years and our failure to meaningfully attempt to solve them will have repercussions. But more than that, it speaks to a public need for a true Moral System of guidence: it is saying something like: "even if I can't conquor this problem, even if nobody can, it is imperative for me to do the best I can to help ease the suffering."

Everybody taking notes?
