Christopher Dodd (Massachusetts) (left):<br /><br />BLITZER: What is more important, human rights or national security?<br />DODD: Obviously, national security, keeping the country safe. When you take the oath of office on January 20, you promise to do two things, and that is to protect and defend the Constitution of the United States and protect our country against enemies both foreign and domestic. The security of the country is number one, obviously.<br /><br />Finally, the moderator turned from Dodd to Sen. Hillary Clinton (New York) (left):<br />BLITZER: You say national security is more important than human rights. Senator Clinton, what do you say?<br />CLINTON: I agree with that completely. The first obligation of the president of the United States is to protect and defend the United States of America. That doesn't mean that it is to the exclusion of other interests.<br />And there's absolutely a connection between a democratic regime and heightened security for the United States. That's what's so tragic about this situation. After 9/11, President Bush had a chance to chart a different course, both in Pakistan and in Afghanistan, and could have been very clear about what our expectations were.<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2301038116412027043.post-56993912814716089682012-11-29T12:14:13.958-05:002012-11-29T12:14:13.958-05:00http://www.cfr.org/experts/world/christopher-j-dod...http://www.cfr.org/experts/world/christopher-j-dodd/b5486<br /><br />Christopher Dodd (D-CT) is a second-generation Connecticut senator (his father Thomas held the office throughout the 1960s). He started his career in public service in the Peace Corps in the Dominican Republic during the late 1960s, gaining fluency in Spanish. Also a result of lessons learned in the Peace Corps, Dodd has emphasized the importance of national service, making an “American Community Initiative” a key part of his platform.<br /><br />Dodd is the only Democratic candidate to have spent time in the military, with stints in the Army Reserves and National Guard. He served in the House of Representatives for five years before his 1980 election to the Senate. He has been a rare voice in Congress focusing on Latin American politics, at times taking positions unpopular in Washington, such as his advocacy for an end to the U.S. embargo on Cuba. He chairs the Senate Foreign Relations Subcommittee on the Western Hemisphere, Peace Corps, and Narcotics.<br /><br />Dodd has made pointed foreign policy critiques of his fellow candidates and the Bush administration throughout the campaign. Though he voted for the invasion of Iraq in 2002, Dodd has attacked front-running Democratic candidates for refusing to pledge to remove U.S. troops from Iraq by 2013.<br /><br />Dodd withdrew his candidacy in January 2008. In February 2008, Dodd endorsed Sen. Barack Obama (D-IL) for the Democratic nomination.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2301038116412027043.post-32526734850209317712012-11-29T12:12:42.031-05:002012-11-29T12:12:42.031-05:00http://www.fayerwayer.com/2012/01/solicitan-invest...http://www.fayerwayer.com/2012/01/solicitan-investigacion-a-la-mpaa-por-posible-soborno-a-politicos/<br /><br />MPAA podría ser investigada por sobornar a políticos<br /><br />19 <br /> Cony SturmAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2301038116412027043.post-43886554002775969802012-11-29T12:11:32.863-05:002012-11-29T12:11:32.863-05:00http://www.independentsentinel.com/2012/01/petitio...http://www.independentsentinel.com/2012/01/petition-wants-chris-dodd-investigated-for-bribery/<br /><br />Petition Asks White House to Investigate Chris Dodd for Bribery<br />January 22, 2012<br />By Sara NobleAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2301038116412027043.post-9392912865272238562012-11-29T12:10:24.137-05:002012-11-29T12:10:24.137-05:00http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2012/01/19/exclusi...http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2012/01/19/exclusive-hollywood-lobbyist-threatens-to-cut-off-obama-2012-money-over-anti/<br /><br />EXCLUSIVE: Chris Dodd warns of Hollywood backlash against Obama over anti-piracy bill<br />Published January 19, 2012<br />FoxNews.com<br /><br />Read more: http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2012/01/19/exclusive-hollywood-lobbyist-threatens-to-cut-off-obama-2012-money-over-anti/#ixzz2DdHKE9SaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
