Hillary Slams Wall Street’s “Capitalist Pigs”

As her chance for the Democratic presidential nomination dwindles, Senator Hillary Clinton (N.Y.), in a desperate attempt to eat into rival, Illinois Senator Barack Obama’s base, vowed that her administration would “expropriate the expropriators” by “imposing ‘windfall’ taxes and punitive regulation” on “capitalist pigs.”

Clinton conceded that her race for the nomination is an uphill fight. “I thought that exposing Senator Obama’s links to the Weather Underground would weaken his support among Democratic voters, but I was wrong,” she admitted. “Well, I want voters to know that I have progressive connections, too.”

Among the connections Clinton promises she will highlight in the remaining primaries is that radical leftist Saul Alinsky was her college mentor. “When Obama was just a snot-nosed kid, I was soaking up Marxist ideology at the knee of the great Saul Alinsky,” she boasted.

The Senator said she was not concerned that these revelations of a radical past would hurt her in November “because after I win the nomination, I’ll move back toward the ‘center.’ No one will remember what I said in May.”

In related news, Senator Ted Kennedy (D-Mass.) questioned Hillary’s prospective suitability for a vice-presidential nomination. “Sure, she downed a shot of whiskey while campaigning in Pennsylvania, but could she drink a fifth in one sitting?” he asked. “Is she a good swimmer? What would she do if the ‘ship-of-state’ runs aground? There are just too many unknowns about her capabilities. The Democratic Party needs a VP nominee who can balance Senator Obama’s youthful exuberance with proven experience.”

How many cards are left in the deck? Already played the race card, the gender card. Time to whip out the class warfare card!

“I thought that exposing Senator Obama’s links to the Weather Underground would weaken his support among Democratic voters, but I was wrong,” she admitted. “Well, I want voters to know that I have progressive connections, too.”

This is sarcasm, right? She really didn’t say this. Quit wasting our time with this dribble.

‘Capitalist Pigs’??? Gee, I remember that as the favorite hippy insult cast in Conservative faces from long ago, in college.

Evita is so desperate ... she is reverting to type. You knew it was just a matter of time... guess she learned NOTHING since 1965-somethings NEVER change.

With her, it gets tougher and tougher to recognize satire.

It’s hard to mock that which is mockery.

Wow. Just Wow.

The gall of this grifter who is now worth MILLIONS of dollars through the hijacked office of the Presidency and her shameless influence peddling, to attack people who make money is breathtaking.

Simply breathtaking.
