The media could not contain its joy after Tuesdays primaries Democrats had finally nominated a woman for president. There wasnt an overpaid mainstream media teleprompter reader who didnt utter the word historic at least once in the ensuing 24 hours. They are right. Hillary Clinton is historic but not just for the way she uses the toilet.
Hillary Clinton is the first nominee of a major political party to have served as secretary of state while an American ambassador was murdered. Other secretaries of state have had ambassadors murdered on their watch, but none received their partys nomination as a reward. Historic!
Hillary Clinton is the first nominee of a major political party to be under active criminal investigation by the FBI. Many may well have deserved it, but Hillary smashed right through that glass ceiling. Historic!
Hillary Clinton is the first nominee of a major political party to have led the fight to discredit and smear women her husband had affairs with, sexually harassed, and who accused him of rape. To borrow a line from Virginia Slims, Youve come a long way, baby. Historic!
Hillary Clinton is the first nominee of a major political party to earn hundreds of millions of dollars under the guise of public service. Even adjusting for inflation and counting the days of blatant graft, Hillary likely has become wealthier than any other person ever through her ties to government work. Historic! (NOTE: This record runs risk of being broken when Barack Obama leaves office next year.)
Hillary Clinton is the first nominee of a major political party to have set up a shadow communications network to mask her actions in office from the public. Yes, other government officials have used private email occasionally. Secretary of State Colin Powell, for example, responded to a couple of dozen work-related emails sent to his private account. But none have even contemplated setting up their own, unsecured and quite vulnerable private server to avoid accountability. Historic!
These are but a few examples of how Hillary Clinton made history. Shes also parlayed a mediocre law career into a media-spun reputation of being the smartest woman to ever walk upright.
Or course this is the medias attempt to prop up Hillary because they have to. On her own merits shes unworthy of trust, public or private. As first lady, she shielded her husbands actions. As a senator, she was inconsequential. As secretary of state, she was a disaster.
Her own biography on her website cant twist her failures into anything other than what they are.
As first lady of Arkansas, she was a forceful champion for improving educational standards, These are but a few examples of how Hillary Clinton made history. Shes also parlayed a mediocre law career into a media-spun reputation of being the smartest woman to ever walk upright.

As first lady of Arkansas, she was a forceful champion for improving educational standards, her website reads. Education in Arkansas under Bill Clinton never left the bottom.
When Bill was elected president, Hillary led the fight to take over the health care industry. It not only was rejected, but the American people were so disinterested they threw control of Congress to Republicans for the first time in generations.
She touts her groundbreaking speech at the UN Conference on Women in China, in which she said, Human rights are women's rights, and women's rights are human rights once and for all. Left unsaid was how those empty words led to exactly zero changes in how China treats women.
Thats the essence of Hillary Clintons life speaking lofty-sounding words with no impact while sycophants with press credentials swoon like theyre in the front row for The Beatles on Ed Sullivan. You can get away with being all sizzle and no steak if theres a paid gaggle of reporters telling the world how delicious the meal no one ate was.
As secretary of state, she immediately had Israel taken off her plate on day 2 when President Obama appointed former Sen. George Mitchell as Special Envoy for Middle East Peace. Why take the most volatile foreign policy area off the docket of the nations foreign policy chief? Because she had no experience or qualifications for the job.
It was supposed to be a resume-building job, so she would toil in the insignificant while knowledgeable professionals led the effort in the worlds hot spot. See Libya, Russia, Syria, China, North Korea, Iran, etc., to figure out how well that worked.
Still, the media portray her as an accomplished secretary of state. Historic bias.
The only things at which Hillary Clinton has excelled are fending off victims of her husband, abdicating responsibility when situations melt down and monetizing her public service in ways never imagined by even the most unscrupulously corrupt of her predecessors.
Yes, you see, Hillary Clinton is historic, and in many more ways than the media will tell you. If she wins in November she will become even more historic
just like the Hindenburg was more historic than any other blimp flight.
She’s historic?
So what!? So were Lenin, Stalin, Mussolini, Hitler, Mao, Pol Pot and Khomeini. Not exactly a standard that one would aspire to - or be fooled into allowing, if one had any sense or love of country and liberty.
I don’t think she’s actually human.
Despite the huge mountain of evidence against her, she shows not an ounce of shame.
The Clinton political apparat never falters....no matter what.
The “first black president” was “historic”...a historic train wreck.
Se etching presidents based on gender, or color, is a prescription for disaster.
So was the Bubonic Plague.
Histrionic.
It gives me the chills knowing that she ran the State Dept w/ the same vacuous thinking that borders on mental retardation.......not to mention the 8 years M/M Non Compos Mentis spent in the WH.
Historic... so are dinosaurs.”
Yep, along with Benedict Arnold.
