Clinton Pledges to Boost Foreign Assistance Programs
Hillary Clinton says she understands it will be difficult to boost foreign aid considering the nation’s economic problems.
Friday, January 23, 2009
Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton pledged Friday to overhaul U.S. foreign aid programs to increase assistance and give civilians a greater role in its delivery. But she warned that selling the public on the idea would be hard in troubled economic times. WHAT IS CLINTON THINKING WE NEED THE MONEY HEE IN THE U.S.

Obama revamps rules on detainees
Updated
President Obama signs an executive order closing the prison at Guantanamo Bay Thursday in the Oval Office of the White House in Washington.
WASHINGTON — President Obama unleashed a passionate debate about the treatment of terrorism suspects by ordering sweeping changes in the rules for interrogation and the closing of the military prison at Guantanamo Bay.
Acting swiftly on a campaign promise two days after his inauguration, Obama signed a series of executive orders Thursday that call for closing Guantanamo within a year and moving out its 245 remaining detainees, shuttering CIA prisons overseas, and prohibiting harsh interrogation techniques such as waterboarding, which gives the sensation of drowning.
THE OVAL: ‘Values and ideals’ drive U.S. policy
In reversing policies set by the Bush administration, Obama said he wanted to send a message to the world that the United States will pursue the struggle against terrorism “in a manner that is consistent with our values and our ideals.”
The actions set off a debate in Congress, where Republicans decried the possibility that terrorists such as Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, mastermind of the 9/11 attacks, would be transferred to military prisons in places such as California and Kansas.
WHAT THE HELL IS OBAMA THINKING? START HELPING US HERE IN AMERICA 1ST, DEAL WITH THOSE SOB’S LATER, OBAMA IS NOT PRIORITIZING, WE SHOULD ALL COME FIRST AND OUR SOLDIERS.

Obama reverses U.S. abortion-funding policy

THE ‘ROE’ RULING
The U.S. Supreme Court ruled in Roe v. Wade in 1973 that a Texas law criminalizing most abortions violated a woman’s constitutional right of privacy, which the court said was implicit in the due-process clause of the 14th Amendment.
“Jane Roe” was an alias used to shield the identity of Norma McCorvey, who sued Dallas County District Attorney Henry Wade.
In the 7-2 decision, the court sought to balance a woman’s right to privacy with a state’s interest in regulating abortion. Only a “compelling state interest” would justify restrictions, it concluded. Legal challenges have limited the reach of Roe but not overturned it.
WASHINGTON — President Obama on Friday quietly ended the Bush administration’s ban on giving federal money to international groups that perform abortions or provide information on the option.
Liberal groups welcomed the decision, while abortion rights foes criticized the president.
Known as the “Mexico City policy,” the ban has been reinstated and then reversed by Republican and Democratic presidents since Ronald Reagan established it in 1984. Democrat Bill Clinton ended the ban in 1993, but Republican George W. Bush re-instituted it in 2001 as one of his first acts in office.
After the meeting, House Minority Leader John Boehner, R-Ohio, questioned the size of the bill, now at $825 billion but expected to grow. “We expressed our concern about some of the spending that is being proposed in the House bill,” he said.” We’re borrowing this money from our kids.”
He said he doesn’t understand, for example, why the bill includes “hundreds of millions” of dollars for contraceptives. “How does that stimulate the economy?” he asked.
SOUNDS LIKE THINGS ARE HEADED DOWNHILL INSTEAD OF UPHILL. SOMETHING IS NOT RIGHT.
- hundreds of millions for contraceptives????
I didn’t realize this country had so many fashion designers…lol lol lol they are nuttier than fruitcakes all the negative commentors. y’all are funny as heck!!!
all the haters please go to sleep. i love both outfits ,especially the daytime one i love the colour. besides it’s not your clothes that make you it’s your heart and she has a good heart. i love the obamas and the bidens. may god bless them and keep them safe.
Michelle was definitely beautiful IN SPITE of the clothes which did nothing to enhance her beauty or flatter her figure and that train got in her way too many times to mention. Where is the stylist she deserves???
I didn’t like either outfit, especially the gown. It looked like torn sheets and fuzzy balls on it. She could have chose something so much more up to date and elegant.
Lee I agree with you 100%, excellent comment and thank you.
seems like somebody is jealous first page bottom
TO THE CRITICS: YOU ARE ALL EMPTY VESSELS THAT MAKE THE MOST NOISE.
Lord, someone please get a hold of Michelle Obama. What was she thinking….This is not the time to try out an “up and coming designer”. She looked like a giant marshmallow!
if you heard his speech he mentioned all americans and the economy. people commenting on the dresses is just a distraction instead of thinking how bad the economy is, i think about it everyday and how will the U.S. get bailed out. California has a 42 billion deficit. I heard on the news that disabled, women with children on welfare rolls, the elderly might not get their monthly checks, the state wants to issue them all IOU’S. Unless they come up with some money somewhere, that is what is going to happen. some of the elderly barely get enough to survive on. I think about all that, it’s a financial crisis in California. What caN we all do? the officials are in control of the money? And I am sure that there are other states facing the same problem.
