Let’s face it — there was never going to be a good time for a gaffe of this scale, but it’s hard to think of a worse time for it. In Iraq, where Hillary Clinton signed off on the zero option rather than push for Barack Obama to reach an agreement for residual forces, an al-Qaeda spinoff marches on Baghdad in its effort to establish a new Islamist caliphate. In Afghanistan, fifty people died in what is largely considered a successful election campaign. In Burma, which Hillary claims as one of her crowning achievements, the winner of an election from two decades ago has finally been released from home imprisonment while the military junta tries to balance its need for commerce with its desire for power. Syria just held a mockery of an election, which resulted in the continued despotism of the man Hillary once hailed as a “reformer,” Bashar al-Assad. The country to which she gave a “reset” button is overrunning Ukraine.
But you know which country has the most brutal politics? Er, the one her husband dominated for almost a decade:
“Politics is so unpredictable,” Clinton responded. “Whoever runs has to recognize that the American political system is probably the most difficult, even brutal, in the world.”
Pardon my punctuation. In my last post that should have been a period not a comma. Shirley.
Such touch as she had - which was always exaggerated - is completely gone.
Heavy drinking will do it every time.
Please don’t ever use the words Hillary, hand and period in the same sentence again. Period.
ROTFL I’m going to have to get up early again. Some day.
ISIS could be a little crueler than Hillary’s vision but maybe not, we don’t know for sure.
No one is more brutal or ruthless than the she-devil herself.
Methinks the Norks have us beat.

When Hillary talks about 'brutal' she means brutal to HER. A question asked without the right amount of deference? A challenge to a well placed lie?
Brutal to HER.
And to her fellow ELITE democrats - by THEIR standards of ELITE entitlement ... what Hillary does to the little people doesn't matter - they're worthless anyhow, right?
War room? She cheerfully destroyed people who dared to disagree with her... and would again. The sneer of cold command sits upon that visage.
Agreed.
This is something we should import IMO. It would take some of the 'imperial' shine off the presidency.
You said...
“Hillary still expects a coronation of no accountability, no debt, easy victory, bought and paid for.”
Nailed it.
That’s why she gets testy when the questions get tough. This is owed to her in her mind
Too smart to be SOS, she will do much better as POTUS.
Actually, she knows this first hand. Have you ever seen the list of people that died during the Clintons' reign in Arkansas and the White House? She is a major reason that politics in the US is dangerous.
Yes, *Lmao, Hillary has no intention of crawling through broken glass again this time for the nomination, only to lose it to the senate super - delegates who dissed her and cast their electoral vote for Kid Wonder, leaving her campaign in debt— her own pals did that.
These things will not happen again, and be sewn up in advance this time, including no glass crawling and absolutely no debt.
Her behavior tells me that if she should run, that the nomination is somehow guaranteed first, and the general election campaign expenses taken care of. She thinks they owe her that and that they need her to run for any hope of keeping the White House.
I like to think that the t-shirt company has their own me!
lol
The sports teams of my alma mater were nicknamed The Fighting Sioux, a name (and a people) I was always proud to be associated with.
Some years ago the NCAA started hassling them about the name being racist, which of course is absurd as well as much more offensive than the name itself.
About the time I was registering here at FR the NCAA banned the use of the name altogher...they still haven't picked a new one, rather the teama play with plain jerseys....but I figured a good second choice would be the Fightin' Whiteys...so here we are!
But I guess she would admit that she was wealthy compared to the rest of us. Oh wait....
Tell that to the Jan 21 1993 WH TRAVEL OFFICE who all got fired based on HRC Lies.
