A week after former President Bill Clinton traveled to North Korea to secure the release of two detained American journalists and stole the limelight from the start of his wife's first trip to Africa, Clinton was clearly displeased by the question at town hall forum in Kinshasa.
"You want me to tell you what my husband thinks?" she replied incredulously when the male student asked her what "Mr. Clinton" thought of World Bank concerns about a multi-billion-dollar Chinese loan offer to the Congo.
"My husband is not secretary of state, I am," an obviously annoyed Clinton said sharply.

Yeah sure Hillary, whatever you say.
Didn’t she say a few years back that “we are the president?”
Guess current Sec of State trumps former Pres...
How many other Secretaries of State send their husbands to “negotiate” the release of hostages?
Did we miss our ‘.’ sweetie?
Bill had better be careful of making her mad or he might join some other people who no longer live!!
Proper response: "Oh, yes, that's right Mrs. Clinton, my aopolgy. Let me rephrase: Could you then please tell us what Barrack Obama, Joe Biden thinks?"
HILLARY: “He thinks what I tell him to think. Has always been that way.”
**Maaaaaan. . . aren’t we cranky**
And just 1 HOT FLASH away from ARmageddon
reeeeerrrr! Hissss.
Hillary is the most powerless, neutered Secretary of State I’ve seen in years. She’d have been better off staying in the Senate.
I’m hoping that every public forum from now on features at least one intrepid citizen asking a question such as: “Will Mr. Clinton be travelling to Venezuela? And if so, what message will he bring from the president?”
This is Hillarious! LOL
I cannot help thinking that Hillary’s words were intended for the benefit of another person’s (large) ears.
“I am the Secretary of State of the United States of America. I won. Err..... I lost. I cut a deal. Err.... my husband cut a deal to shutup and just get out of the way. I am the boss.”

"I AM THE HEAD BITCH IN CHARGE!!!! CAPICHE YOU BASTARD?"
“My husband is not secretary of state, I am,”
She’s like Mike Judge’s Milton character.
“Uh, yeah, Hillary we’re going to need you to move your office to the basement. We’ve got some boxes that need to be stored here. Thanks.”
Oh, Hillary - please. If you only could channel your husband. The whole nation would be grateful.
Oh. And one more favor? If you could arrange it so you could channel your boss?
Please? Thanks!
Give her time and she’ll make the almost-lifelike Warren Christopher look good by comparison.
Another Clinton statement that’s open to interpretation...
--Lurleen Wallace, 1967
It was only a matter of time before we started witnessing hot flash diplomacy.
I thought they were a team and when we got one, we got the other as well.
Look how well they worked on the Dubai port authority contract.
Bill got $20 million for brokering the deal and Hillary blamed President Bush.
Uh-oh... AIRBORNE LAMP!!! INCOMING — TAKE COVER!! INCOMING — TAKE COVER!!! IMPACT IN 5...4...3...2...
This is a perfect example of how Washington works.It doesn’t!
Sorry. There for a while it was hard to tell.
Her need to make such a statement says so much.
What a crank pants! Why no love for Billy boy?
She already has. Unless she’s quietly planning to seize power, since, after all, she’s only two plane crashes, one botched cosmetic surgery and a pillowcase away from becoming President.
Depends on what the meaning of “am” is...
backpackers in Iran
dumb chicks in NK
both taken hostage by enemy regimes
Nothing to see here, move along people.
Sooo, how much will the taxpayers have to pay the Il Regime so we could get our dim bulbs back?
Sorry Hillary, you have been castrated.
O has made you into a useless laughingstock.
Do you think on the flight back from NoKo, that your husband uhhh....did 'em? Are you going to investigate and protect their rights to freedom from sexual harrassment?
Secondly, can you tell us anything about Your Boss' birth certificate?
>>> Somebody’s getting a lamp thrown at them tonight, again. <<<<<
I have a suspicion that Bill doesn’t live in that nice house off Embassy Row in DC no more.

Just the thought of her like that kinda -- urp -- makes me sorta, um... URP .. excuse me...!
(double-timing to the head)
i think this means she’s annoyed that she’s been sidelined by Obama and all his czars.
Pantsuit should have stayed in the Senate.
“Pantsuit should have stayed in the Senate.”
She’s probably thinking that, too.
Really, Hillary? Well, the North Koreans say you’re not all that bright, act like a schoolgirl, and dress like a retired person going shopping. Ya got problems, lady.
Yeah, “Ms. Grummpy Pants.”
Sounds like she’s enjoying her trip.
Hah!
Y’know, considering who she’s working for and the minor roles to which she’s been relegated, she almost seems benign by comparison. If zer0 ever did anything right, he’s done a pretty good job of humiliating PIAPS.
Besides, I thought 0bama appointed a Czar to take care of foreign affairs duties?
Hillary, why don’t you run along and make the master a samich. Mmmkay?
I was disappointed the Norks couldn't come up with more punchy terms to describe her. "Schoolgirl" and "shopping pensioner?" I thought they had more moxie than that. They just weren't on their game that day, I guess.

Ruh roh. A little backstabbing going on here?
