Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton yesterday called it "so sad" that she is being criticized as un-American for questioning Bush administration war policies while visiting troops in Iraq over the Thanksgiving holiday.

"I think that's reflective of the efforts by this administration to deny and divert attention from what everybody knows. I mean, it is like the old children's story, 'The Emperor Has No Clothes,' " Mrs. Clinton said.

... because, certainly, we Right Wing Kooks can't think for ourselves ... I had no idea Shrillary's words to the troops were un-American until Dick Cheney called and told me so ... frickin' shrew ...

"No, no," Mrs. Clinton told NBC's "Meet the Press."

Isn't that what Juanita Broadderick said, too?

This has nothing to do with the President, Hillary. Believe it or not we have minds of our own.

How arrogant of this woman (?) to think that we only have views that are molded by our leaders.

We, the citizens think you are unAmerican Hillary, all on our own!

Hillary isn't anti-American. She is pro-personal power no matter what the cost. If she could become a conservative and win the Republican nomination in 2008, she would do so. To her, patriotism is irrelevant. It is all about power.

"Mrs. Clinton said she did not undercut morale by criticizing the commander in chief to U.S. soldiers in Iraq. "It is fully appropriate, in talking with our soldiers, to have that kind of conversation with them," Mrs. Clinton said.

I hardly think that when someone asks you to pass the mashed potatoes and gravy it could be characterized as a 'conversation.'

--------------------------

The typical Hillary ploy. She answers by giving her subjective emotional reaction rather than addressing any substance. It works today in a society of people concerned only with their subjective feelings.

Who's she kidding? She's a globalist of the highest order. She'd like nothing better than the demise of the USA and that PESKY little Constitution.

Hillary must still be smarting from Freepers delivering "The Emperor Has No Clothes" to Congress as a ridicule of Bill. She hasn't forgotten. Probably has been waiting for years to slap that back. Unfortunately it doesn't fit.

.... "I have said no. I've said no, no, no, no." ....

I watched it on replay on CNBC and this taken out of context. When asked would she run if they nominated her, she said, I said No in the past. She did not so "No." She got pretend cutesy and he had to ask a number of times and she never said no. It was a real simple question and she did not answer it straight.

After listening (and puking), it struck me how she couldn't actually answer any question. Her deep analysis was the Bush is bad. I oppose everything. When he put in the Steel tariffs, I opposed them. Now that he is removing them, I oppose that. Why? Because he should bend to the Europeans (translation, he should act unilaterally).

I have no idea why some say Meet the Press is good. It was no better than the Greta show. No depth. No serious analysis. There minutes to answer a question that is either: Yes, No, or Maybe.

The US Press is not only biased, it's also incompetent. Even the best is not even mediocre. It all stinks.

------------------------

There is great truth in that statement. She would change her spots to get elected. However, she fundamentally hates this country and has for 35 years since she attended that whorehouse college in which she was programmed and from which she granulated. She will revert to that after being elected president. It's in her blood. It's her meaning and obsession in life.

She called it "SAD" that she's rightfully called Un-American.

Hitlery:
HINO (Human in Name Only)
WINO (Woman in Name Only)

She/it reminds of an alien in some movie or TV I saw years ago - where the human looking alien rips its head off, and the human looking head is only a mask, covering the real reptile head.

Naturally they were evil.

She/it is truly one of the most evil, hateful and pathologically dishonest "people" in politics. Her "husband" is a milimeter more human; at least he's heterosexual.

Hillary went to Iraq and told the soldiers 3 things:

1. The outcome is uncertain (what a morale booster!)
2. People at home have questions about Bush's policy (ie: People at home think you're risking your life for no reason)
3. Winning the war was "the easy part" (ie: some of your fellow soldiers died but that process was "easy")

I watched the whole Meet The Press interview. IMHO, Russert was not the same Russert who interviewed Dean and Clark.

They all say if she runs for office, she will face heightened scrutiny. To that I say BULLSHIT! The bitch gets a pass every friggin time!

You got that right!....Russert's credibility took a deep nose dive after observing his interview with Hillary....his questions were immature, silly and not full of substance. Russert had about 8 minutes of dialogue while Hillary took the rest. Russert's questions sounded scripted and Hillary sounded coached. Pathetic exchange with a barf alert in capital letters. Anxious to hear what Don Imus has to say today, that is, if he hasn't changed his spots on Hillary.

Nobody wants to risk pissing her off. The troops everseas know she can make trouble if they openly diss her, Russert knows the same. Sort of like (I am called) Rather interviewing Saddam -- those that piss him off have a tendency to stop breathing. Only thing is, it's not really journalism. But if the sheeple will buy it, guess they think it's ok.

"Republicans are "taking aim at the New Deal" and have "a mission in mind to radically restructure the social safety net, the kind of consumer and worker protections that have been at the base of building the American middle class," she said."

No, Shrillery, the so-called "social safety net" has NOT been at the basis for the American middle class, nor has any other gubmint program.

The American middle class has been established because America has been based on individual FREEDOM!

You can't pull your subversive socialistic wool over our eyes and get away with it!

missus clinton's Sunday-Circuit, pink-suited panic

 by Mia T, December 7,2003

 

Cissus clinton failed to notice: 'living history' begets a certain symmetry. How fitting it is that the clintons were forced to reveal their inept and treasonous hand on this day, exactly 62 years after the attack on Pearl Harbor.

One has to surmise from hillary clinton's Sunday-Circuit, pink-suited panic that clinton in-house polling has the missus out-polling Jane Fonda for the Tokyo-Rose prize. (Incidentally, someone ought to clue in her dresser: exculpation-by-pink-suit can work only once; notwithstanding, a treasonous middle-aged matron in a pink suit reads: "dowdy treasonous middle-aged matron in pink suit." Nothing more... nothing less....)

It is common knowledge that missus clinton limits the frequency, intensity and content of her cozy clintonoid interviews of the Colmes kind. Tim Russert's (Meet the Press, NBC) stomach-turning HILLARY 2004! boosterism and nonexistent follow-ups ("And why do you suppose there aren't enough troops to fight a war, missus CLINTON?") made it clear that she had the latter two -- intensity and content -- covered today. It was frequency that did her in.

Tokyo Rose also aided and abetted our enemies by using psychological warfare designed to lower the morale of our troops; and she was convicted of treason. One could easily argue that clinton's betrayal, because it is ultimately self-serving, is an even greater iniquity. And then, of course, there are the clintons' other treasonous acts....

 

Russert, therefore, was not only on the wrong page. He was in the wrong book.
The question isn't,
"Who in his right mind would ever want the clintons back in the Oval Office?"
The question is,--
"Who in his right mind would want the seditious
, America-undermining clintons unconfined?"

Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton yesterday called it "so sad" that she is being criticized as un-American for questioning Bush administration war policies while visiting troops in Iraq over the Thanksgiving holiday.

That's because it's generally seen that her opposition is not principled opposition to intervention or a thought-out conclusion that invading Iraq was a counterproductive strategy -- it's just plain Democrat politics.

Watched 5 mins of Russert and he let her laugh like a prom queen when asking if she was running. The one question he threw was if she still thought there was a VRWC? She said yes and villified Christians and the usual villians. He did ask if the Unions, environmentalists and abortionists made a VLWC that controlled the Dims??? Her response, well they haven't been able to influence the Rats??? RIIIGHT, The abortion party is not affected by women's groups etc.
