HILLARY STOKES '08 FIRE WITH RED-HOT SPEECH

April 11, 2005 -- MINNEAPOLIS — Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton bowled over the Democratic faithful in the key 2008 presidential swing state of Minnesota with a fiery weekend stump speech that had fans hailing her as the "great hope" to take back the White House.

"She speaks her mind and she's a leader," swooned Debra Manninen. "She's our great hope."

Party faithful here devoured Clinton's brand-new, red-meat material in her first major political speech Saturday night since the November 2004 election, which aides said she wrote herself.

**SNIP**

Clinton didn't say she was running for president. She didn't have to. Sen. Mark Dayton (D-Minn.) said it for her when he made an "unauthorized" introduction of the "next great president of the United States of America."

After a standing ovation by 2,000 Dems who paid $100-a-head to see her speak, Clinton slammed Bush and the Republican-controlled Congress — and never contradicted her introduction.

Clinton's Republican shredding — calling GOP lawmakers "extras in the movie 'I, Robot' " and President Bush's push for an ownership society a "you're-on-your-own society" — was just what the party here wanted.

**SNIP**

"As dumb as they are, they [the Democrats] kind of catch on quick," Rove said in his lone partisan shot, according to GOP donor Tim Eichacker, who paid $250 to be there.

That is SUCH innovative speechwriting. /sarcasm

She should just stick with calling all of us the Vast Right-Wing Conspiracy, she's never outdone that one.

Where was she when Terri was being starved to death? What did she say then?

and she's a leader

If she leads, I ain't following.

If she is an example of a leader, this country is in deeeeeeeeeppppppppppppp s***.

She couldn't lead a person with diarrhea to the outhouse.

If the Beast is an example of leadership, I will take Attila the Hun.

"Aunt Flow" hasn't been in Hillary's building for years.

Listening to Shrillary's fingernails-on-a-chalkboard ranting almost leads me to pity Bill Clinton. Can you imagine the Queen of the Harpies on a tirade during the Monica Lewinsky affair? Damn.

Maybe the concentrated evil that dwells inside her skin will make it all the way to the surface and consume her before then.

She really should be embarassed to have delivered such a lame speech. This is junior high stuff.....at the country is at war, dealing with significant security and trade issues, etc. Amazing....if she is their hope, they might want to throw in the towel now.

Let's dwell on the positives: she's been covering her southern half with pantsuits so we haven't had to see those Alley-Oop/Goon gams. For that, I am sincerely grateful.

Threads like these tax my ability to comment on the woman. We all know she's a pimple on the ass of politics. A bolshevik power mad lunatic feminist lesbian lawyer ball crushing man hater who reviles her own country and its institutions almost as much as she hates George W. Bush. We all know these things. So what's there more to say?

I've been wondering why Hillary, in her dash to the right of Bush on immigration, hasn't had more to say about the Minutemen. I almost expected her to make a visit to the border to give a speech praising them.

Because of managed health care right now (something she was promoting during her husband the rapist-in-chief's administration) I have to drive my dad 40 miles in order to see an oncologist when there are plenty of good qualified ones within a 10 mile radius of his home (They're just not on his plan).

This stinks!!!
