Hillary Rotam Clinton spoke to a standing room
only crowd of more than 1500 Democrats Monday at the Jefferson
Jackson Bailey dinner. "I'm sick and tired of people
who call you unpatriotic if you debate this administrations policies"
Clinton shouted as the crowd applauded.
She spoke of how Democrats must start acting like Democrats if we are to
take back the White House. " I believe the Democratic Party is going
to rise again" "Clinton said" as we have found ourselves questioning
our leaders and their directions.
The Dinner also featured Chevy Chase as Master of Ceremonies and
raised more than 350,000 dollars which was 50,000 more than
when the former president Bill Clinton spoke last year.
A special thank you goes out to Leslie O'Brian, a very talented
young lady who sang the Star Spangled Banner.
