Yeah, Hillary. You did a great job helping to arm and fund them while you were Obama’s Secretary of State.

Now you’re promising to fight them? When pigs fly.

I am sure she will do as good a job protecting Americans at home as she did protecting Americans in a Foreign Embassy.

And I’m sure the TV show ‘Madam Secretary’ will be happy to corroborate any lies she tells on the campaign trail.

I watched her speech today, she droned her way through it

They must have dipped her face in botox, no wrinkles, no
bags under the eyes. I knew we would actually see her get
younger as the campaign went on and I was right.
The portrait of Dorian Rodham Clinton...

I thought Hussein’s re-election put us in bizzaro world. I was wrong. Hillary Clinton as a potential C in C puts us, truly, in bizzaro world..
