Random Liberal Quotes...
"Whether one agrees or disagrees with the Administration s policy towards Iraq, I don t think there can be any question about Saddam s conduct. He has systematically violated, over the course of the past 11 years, every significant UN resolution that has demanded that he disarm and destroy his chemical and biological weapons, and any nuclear capacity. This he has refused to do. He lies and cheats; he snubs the mandate and authority of international weapons inspectors; and he games the system to keep buying time against enforcement of the just and legitimate demands of the United Nations, the Security Council, the United States and our allies. Those are simply the facts." -- Henry Waxman, Oct 10, 2002

 For Clinton, Women and Newbies First
Chelsea Clinton has been famous since she was in braces. This does not stop her mother from telling audiences on the campaign trail that, "It's a great treat traveling with my daughter, Chelsea Clinton" — as if there was a chance they might not know which Chelsea she was beaming about.

Chelsea Clinton has been famous since she was in braces. This does not stop her mother from telling audiences on the campaign trail that, "It's a great treat traveling with my daughter, Chelsea Clinton" — as if there was a chance they might not know which Chelsea she was beaming about.In Iowa, Clinton's supporters don't just know Chelsea, many of them know what it's like to campaign with their daughters. The largely female audiences that show up at Clinton events are filled with mothers and daughters making common cause over presidential politics in hopes of electing the first woman president. And these newly fervent supporters are a critical part of Clinton's caucus night strategy.Teresa Valyer, a retired teacher and Navy veteran, decided how she would vote in the caucuses after the first televised Democratic candidate debate. "I said, this woman knows the answer to every question that's asked." Then Valyer swayed her 27-year-old daughter Brandy, who will give rides to other Clinton supporters on Thursday night and plans to second Clinton at their precinct caucus.Many of the Valyers' neighbors in this conservative part of the state are less supportive. One of the reasons Valyer went to Clinton's appearance in Council Bluffs on Monday night, which drew 850 people, was to pick up a new yard sign — her fourth. "They usually last about three days," she says, adding, "It's not Hillary fans."Connie Gronstal, the wife of Iowa Senate Majority Leader Mike Gronstal, lost her sign, too — and it was one of the oversized ones known around here as "barn signs." (Swiping it took some effort, as the tire tracks in the snow attested.) But Gronstal, who, with her 30-year-old daughter Kate, serves as Clinton's Pottawattamie County co-chair, says that people are warming up to Clinton, thanks to her many visits to western Iowa. "After people have met her, they usually see a different person," Gronstal says. "After they meet her, they are really won over."
