VIDEO: Hillary snaps on student

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

KINSHASA, Congo -- U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton's temper flared on Monday when a Congolese university student asked her for her husband's thinking on an international financial matter.

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. "If you want my opinion, I will tell you my opinion. I am not going to be channeling my husband."

The question was left unanswered as the moderator of the event quickly moved on.

Excerpt

[Harley]

The video clip of Hillary's meltdown hasn't been posted yet, but it's a classic. She pulled the earphones out of her ears and said "I'm not channeling Bill Clinton, I am the Secretary of State."

[omega4179]

He was sec. state for 6 hours and did more than she did in 7 months. Epic FAIL of a Secretary.

[duckman]

Barbra Boxer moment?

[cripplecreek]

Yeah that’s nice Hillary. Now run along and fix the master a samich.

[dynachrome]

Obozo is SOS. Hildabeast is a spare part.

[beaversmom]

She could have been President—didn’t have what it took though.

[True Republican Patriot]

HILDABEAST FREAKS OUT OVER MISINTERPRETATION!!
Thought she was asked if her “Hubby” approves of her Decisions!
Real Question was whether Her Boss, OBOZO HUSSEIN, APPROVES of HER EFFORTS?

[Future Snake Eater]

Wow! The Ice Queen (in front of cameras, anyway) got a little hot flash of anger, eh? I guess that topic is a bit of a sore spot!

[Cheetahcat]

That’s racist Hillary.

[TigersEye]

Could you channel Eleanor Roosevelt for us then?
Entertainment is a little sparse here in Kinshasa.

[Republic]

Awe....the poor baby...has to be wondering what in the hell has happened to her life.

[noblejones]

Ssssh now little girl; let the men talk.

[Harley]

Sorry this is repeat of a similar post. I saw the new clip on Fox News which was Hillary at her incensed finest. When I did a search I didn't find any links. If anyone finds the news clip and can post it go for it.

[coconutt2000]

*sigh*

Hillary, the correct response is, “I can’t comment on my husband’s thoughts, but if you’ll give your name, email and question to one of our volunteers I’ll make sure he gets it. I can’t however guarantee an answer.”

[jackv]

Haha!! I just saw it. What a fat blob sitting there!! Then she goes off like a fool, only to find out the translator messed up and the question was really about obama’s thoughts, not bill's.

Hahahaha! What a joke. She is a joke. This whole administration is an embarrassment!!

[fish hawk]

Okay, let’s say I am a psychiatrist. What does that tell me about the Beast? Not only is the stucco melting but there are interior problems as well. LOL

[dynachrome]

credit to whichever freeper I stole this from!

[TigersEye]

0bama’s foreign policy Czar is not amused. Stick to delivering Easy Buttons, sweetie.

[jer33 3]

Snippet:

It was not immediately clear why Clinton reacted with such umbrage, and she quickly recovered her cool and moved on to other subjects Monday. Just before the question that set off her anger, another student had asked if the U.S. and the West felt a need to apologize to the people of Congo for colonialism and postcolonial interference.

“I cannot excuse the past and I will not try,” she said. “We can either think about the past and be imprisoned by it or we can decide we’re going to have a better future and work to make it.”

“”I’m not channeling Bill Clinton, I am the Secretary of State.”

If she was channeling Bill she would probably be hearing a lot more then she wanted to.

[True Republican Patriot]

Can You imgine what is seething in that Ice Berg of a Soul that is Hildabeast! She Hates taking Orders from OBOZO and believes She was Cheated Out of the Prsidency by the Incompitent Moron that is OBOZO HUSSEIN!

[Drango]

Maybe it’s that time of the month? /j

Damage Control:

State Department officials said the student approached Clinton afterward and told her he had meant to ask what Obama, not Bill Clinton, thought about the Chinese loan. It was unclear whether the French-speaking student or translator had erred.

Since his presidency, Bill Clinton has spoken out about international financial and development aid to poor countries, one focus of his foundation's Clinton Global Initiative, making his opinion of interest abroad. But the stage in Kinshasa was his wife's, and she reacted instantly to a suggestion that he shared it.

She had been sidelined for weeks after she fell on her way to the White House in June and fractured her elbow, requiring surgery. Her aides acknowledged her frustrations stemming from the injury, which made her miss out on going to Russia with Obama and attending several European conferences.

But her aides and those in the White House have denied any rift or attempt to marginalize her.

Story

[hflynn]

Okay Hillary, your still my Secretary of State. Now sit down and take the following dictation. Bill Clinton will fly to North Korea to escort 2 journalist convicted of espionage on a private jet back to America. I, Barrack Obama, have arranged all of the details. Sincerely; TOTUS Barrack

Hillary print that out in triplicate for my signature and then take that BS trip to Africa. See ya would not want to be ya.

[tflabo]

She could have been President—ACORN didn’t did have what it took though.

[scottywr]

This is what happens when people who don’t know how to run a country try to run a country. We are in deep shinola.

[ought-six]

She is a no-talent harpy who ONLY got to where she is today politically and professionally because she was married to Bubba.

[surelyclintonsbaddream]

I think Clinton going to NK a week after NK had said such things about his wife, appears to show that she couldn’t handle it and he had to take over.
Sets the feminist movement back a bit!

[fight_truth_decay]

allafrica

[TigersEye]

She Hates taking Orders from OBOZO and believes She was Cheated Out of the Prsidency by the Incompitent Moron that is OBOZO HUSSEIN!

She was. Bwaaaahahahahahahahaa a (cough) ha sheee ... it.
It would be even funnier if 0bama wasn't Pres_ent.

[swheats]

OUCH! that’s gotta hurt.

[Rebelbase]

“She pulled the earphones out of her ears and said “I’m not channeling Bill Clinton, I am the Secretary of State.””

And she’s so well respected that Kim Jong invited her to North Korea, but Bill got to the phone first and said he’d do it.

[RetroSexual]

[spectre]

Wow, so the beast finally showed us her famous temper. Poor Bill, poor poor Bill.

sw

[surrey]

Too old.

[Rebelbase]

““”I’m not channeling Bill Clinton, I am the Secretary of State.””

It’s true. If she were channeling Bill she’d never leave Huma alone.

[Vendome]

here is Hillary Snapping.

Believe it or not there is actually a commercial to watch first but wait until you see her snap.

This woman has brass balls and was very much not a secretary of state at that moment

[Rebelbase]

“Poor Bill, poor poor Bill.”

Methinks at this point their marriage is one of convenience and openness.

[Vendome]

See my post #41

[greatdefender]

Drama Queen!

[keepitreal]

LOL.

Her elbow got hurt and it’s made her grumpy.

[Rebelbase]

Her reply was about the ugliest and nasty I’ve ever seen her.

[sam_paine]

She is a no-talent harpy who ONLY got to where she is today politically and professionally because she was married to Bubba.

Completely backwards! The only reason Bill made it past the Arkansas leagues was because Hillary kept his horny ass out of the fire each time, at least till Lewinsky.

[swheats]

That could be a double slap. Ignoring Hillary’s opinion and forgetting or dismissing Barak as president now.

[Harley]

here is Hillary Snapping.

Good job finding that even with the commercial it's a classic. Hillary could star as Travis in a remake of Taxi Driver. "Are you talking to ME?"
