THIRTEEN CARS and three buses wound their way to Farmleigh and another piece of history was made as the first US secretary of state to make a dedicated visit to Ireland emerged from an armoured 07 BMW.
She came dressed in a royal blue “pantsuit”, feminised with a ruffle, a large silver necklace and black kitten heels, none of which detracted from that formidable gaze as she and the Taoiseach swapped diplomatic phrases under a lowering sky.

[What are “kitten heels” ????]
They are the tiny ones that Michelle has been wearing and being criticized for. Some said ‘they are so out of date’. Well, they must be back in style??

“kitten heels” If they support Mickey and Hildabeast they must be made of titanium or depleted uranium, tungsten—some sort of super alloy.

Lol, you exaggerate a bit but come to think of it, you seldom see real fat women in high heels.

Why is this woman in Ireland? Ireland is not in NATO and is not assisting the mission in Afghanistan or Iraq. Obama is playing Hamlet about a possible change in US strategy. Meanwhile the NATO allies we have talked into the conflict sit on the sidelines wondering whether they are to be hung out to dry. I thought this adminstration was all about consultations: or does it talk only to the hostile (Russia) and the unhelpful(Ireland)? Surely Hillary could have skipped at least the latter for a trip to NATO HQ in Brussels.

I like this part”
“The sole dissenter was an earnest young man in a black windcheater who asked when she would be getting the solders out of Afghanistan, Iraq and Shannon.
“We’re working on it,” she said, by which time a few well-practised shoulder movements from secret service men swiftly bundled him to the back.”
How dare someone ask Hilary a real question... Back behind the velvet rope, you neanderthal...
