i have never heard that ever about them ever.

art students may think they're hot shit, but really do feel extrememly insecure about their future financial prospects

ziggytrix I only expected to be able to find a job in my field.

Not some temp job bullshit for 3 years followed by sneaking into a somewhat unrelated field thru straight-up nepotism.

Kids expect to start at 6 figures? HAHAHAHA! Yeah right.

Maybe if they had 5 figure allowances growing up....

When I graduated three years ago with a Computer Art degree, I had my sights set on "Receptionist". I still have yet to obtain that position, but I at least have a steady job. Not all of us expect six figure jobs right out of school, which is what incensed me about Hilary's remark in the first place.

Good point. I think, though, that to some degree she has to criticize the administration, while also thinking about the future and adressing the future. She's gotta have some balls (lol. not literally, you big sillys) But I guess either way, it'll be bad if she sounds like some proganda machine or some bitter, old school teacher.

Dr. Boogie It's just too bad she had to go and make a sweeping generalization about the entire younger generation to make that point.

Dr. Boogie The Daily Show had a clip of Clinton giving another speech after being reprimanded by Chelsea in which she tried to explain that while she said that young people don't know what work is, she didn't mean that young people don't work hard.

I really, really hope there is a better Democratic candidate for president out there.

Courage the Cowardly Dog She also blames videogames I'm sure. It worked for Tipper Gore and Joe Lieberman in the 90s with Nintendergate.

I would be willing to vote for a woman, i'd be willing to vote for a democrat, I'd be willing to vote for a democrat woman.... just not THAT one.

mburbank I find nothing interesting about you finding common ground with Hillary. It makes perfect sense.

If the Democratic establishment runs her all they will be doing is making a money piniatta. And they are stupid enough to do it.

Chojin Yeah, I agree with the sentiment as well. You lazy fucks.

ziggytrix One of the kids in my Spanish class in high school (in Little Rock) talked about having Chelsea over for a slumber party when they were in junior high. She said something about no one liking her and locking her in a closet...

"Kids, for whatever reason, think they're entitled to go right to the top with $50,000 or $75,000 jobs when they have not done anything to earn their way up," the Dems' 2008 White House front-runner said.

El Blanco Isn't a big part of the Democrats' strategy to pick up the young vote? Does she figure since it didn't help in 2004 she won't use it for 2008?

Or does she figure she can pander to everyone, no matter how many contradictory statements she has to make, and we all won't notice?
May 13th, 2006 10:23 AM
KevinTheOmnivore Yeah, but Blanco, isn't it kind of funny that her main gripe about young people seemed the be all the STUFF we have??? I mean, she was addressing the CHAMBER OF COMMERCE.

"So young Americans, stop BUYING your iPods, PUT AWAY your credit cards, and start SAVING ALL THAT MONEY!"

Yeah, I'll bet that crowd would jump right behind that one.

She should be a bit more obvious with her pandering, the SOUTH DOESN'T LIKE YOU YET HILLARY, KEEP TRYING!
