Moderator note: I know it's going to be tough, but, please watch the calls for violence against this creature.

In a demoralizing message to U.S. soldiers serving in Iraq, visiting New York Sen. Hillary Clinton told them that Americans back home are growing increasingly skeptical of President Bush's decision to send them into battle.

Describing two meetings with G.I.s over turkey dinners in Baghdad, Sen. Clinton told reporters later that soldiers wanted to know "how the people at home feel about what we are doing."

Clinton said she told the troops, "Americans are wholeheartedly proud of what you are doing but there are many questions at home about the (Bush) administration's policies."

She also suggested that the U.S. could eventually loose the war in Iraq, contending, "We have to exert all of our efforts militarily, but the outcome is not assured."

Despite her sour pronouncements, the former first lady insisted that the soldiers were just as glad to see her as they were President Bush, whose surprise visit less than 24-hours earlier was greeted with standing ovations.

"It's a positive for the commander-in-chief to visit troops in the field," Clinton told reporters, adding, "the troops [also] seemed to appreciate seeing myself."

Speaking from a secure location just over the Kuwaiti border, Mrs. Clinton launched one verbal salvo after another at the White House, arguing that Bush officials had been "obsessed" with getting Saddam Hussein and saying the perception blinded them to the difficulties of deposing his regime.

"The Pentagon tried to make do with as few troops as possible, as light a footprint as they could get away with," Clinton said. "Now, we're playing catchup . . . Unfortunately, I don't think they fully appreciated the conditions we would encounter."

The top Democrat also reprised her charge that the White House is being less than candid when it comes to apprising the American people of the costs of the war.

"The obstacles and problems here are much greater than the administration usually admits to," she said, adding, "Everybody has to be honest."

1996 -- Another Self-Serving clinton Thanksgiving Jaunt

• Turkey Prez a D.C. Gofer?
• Have you connected the dots yet, Helen?
  

 

Mr. Grafeld told me, referring to Judicial Watch's allegations that Commerce Department trade mission seats were sold in exchange for campaign contributions, that "(Judicial Watch Chairman and General Counsel) Klayman is right on target" but that he believes that the trade mission issues were "only the tip of the iceberg -- that the really big money went towards Presidential access." Mr. Grafeld indicated to me that he believes that Ms. Moss was asking for political contributions in exchange for seats on Commerce Department trade missions, likely at the direction of Hillary Rodham Clinton, but that documents showing this illegal activity had "left the building." In fact, there were effectively no security procedures at the Commerce Department to ensure that sensitive and secret documents and/or any documents which might evidence criminal activity stayed in the building. The purported letters referenced by Mr. Grafeld and Nolanda Hill could easily have "left the building" absent sufficient procedures to secure them.

Clinton reviewing inaugural plans

by Helen Thomas, 29-NOV-1996 14:29

The president, still suffering from a raspy voice, and ordered by his doctor to rest his vocal chords, carried a briefcase as he strolled to the waiting helicopter to return to Camp David. He wore a leather jacket and was followed by an aide carrying a huge box of inaugural papers.

 

ASHINGTON, Nov. 29 (UPI) -- President Clinton [upon the discovery of the body of Barbara Wise in the Commerce Department offices] briefly interrupted his Thanksgiving holiday weekend at Camp David Friday with a quick trip to the White House to gather data he wants to study in planning his second inauguration and then returned to the mountaintop retreat.

The president returned to the Executive Mansion with his wife Hillary and daughter Chelsea, 16. Along with him was Hollywood producer Harry Thomasson, who with his wife Linda Bloodworth Thomasson, a prominent sitcom writer, spent Thanksgiving Day with the Clinton clan at the mountaintop retreat.

Clinton conferred with Thomasson in the Oval Office on his return and discussed preliminary plans for the inaugural on Jan. 20, including choosing a poem he will have read at his second swearing in as president.

The Thomassons played a prominent role in writing the script for his first inauguration in 1993.

The president, still suffering from a raspy voice, and ordered by his doctor to rest his vocal chords, carried a briefcase as he strolled to the waiting helicopter to return to Camp David. He wore a leather jacket and was followed by an aide carrying a huge box of inaugural papers.

But before plunging into further study, Clinton arranged to take time out to play golf with Hillary's brothers at a course near Camp David.

The first lady and Chelsea did not return to the presidential hideaway with him. Mrs. Clinton had the Christmas decoration of the White House to supervise as it got underway Friday and Chelsea had to attend a rehearsal for her performance in the Washington Ballet's annual Christmas performance of "The Nutcracker Suite."

In addition, an aide said Mrs. Clinton had to prepare for her trip to Bolivia Monday afternoon where she will attend the annual meeting of the first ladies of the Americas. Before she departs, she will host a press preview of the White House Christmas decorations.

The president arranged to deliver his weekly Saturday radio address from Camp David. White House press secretary Mike McCurry said the subject would be: "Thanksgiving."

Clinton plans to return to the White House on Sunday, and will face a busy week ahead as he makes important decisions on the make up of his next national security team.

Clinton took a binder of recommendations with him to Camp David on possible Cabinet appointments prepared by his transition team. Most of the interest centered on who he would pick to succeed Secretary of State Warren Christopher who is leaving the Cabinet.

The president wants to have his chief diplomatic and military advisers on deck before Christmas, and the entire new Cabinet selected by Inauguration Day.

On the social side, next week the President and Mrs. Clinton will begin a series of nightly Christmas parties leading up to the holiday. The Clintons, in keeping with tradition, will spend Christmas in the White House.

 

 

She not only no longer serves as a reporter, but her columns and statements expose her as a President-Clinton-loving, welfare-state-supporting leftist. On Oct. 9, 2001, before the Greater Washington Society of Association Executives, Helen Thomas introduced former President Bill Clinton at a gathering of worshipful supporters. Shedding any doubt of where her politics lie, Thomas gushed, "He is the man from Hope, and that is what he has given us, hope ... He [has] also brought unprecedented prosperity to our nation, and because of that, President [Bush] can use the surplus Mr. Clinton left behind to pay for many of the nation's needs in this time of crisis." And to tie it up in a nice big bow, Thomas ended the coronation with, "We miss him."

Helen Thomas Syndrome: THE SYMPTOMS

Mia T, January 3, 2002

 

 

 

The complex of symptoms associated with Helen Thomas Syndrome, (also known as 'habituated doyenne-iosis'), includes the following:

• delusions of importance
• tunnel vision -field of vision is so severely constricted that evidence of Pulitzer-quality stories are invariably missed...evidence like:
  • an absurd reason ("to get a book of poetry") for a Thanksgiving trip from Camp David to DC and back by a corrupt president under subpoena
  • a dead body: a Ron-Brown-posthumous, Ron-Brown-related, Thanksgiving-Day corpse in the Commerce offices (and expedited 'autopsy').
  • the deposition of Sonya Stewart, which tells us that "the trade mission issues were "only the tip of the iceberg -- that the really big money went towards Presidential access." "Mr. Grafeld indicated to me that he believes that Ms. Moss was asking for political contributions in exchange for seats on Commerce Department trade missions, likely at the direction of Hillary Rodham Clinton, but that documents showing this illegal activity had 'left the building.'"
  • "a huge box" hauled back to Camp David by said corrupt president under subpoena.
  • the Gestalt--the synthesis of the evidence -- the absurd reason given for the president's Thanksgiving-Day Camp David-DC-Camp David trip; the Ron-Brown-posthumous, Ron-Brown-related, Thanksgiving-Day corpse (and expedited 'autopsy'); the Sonya Stewart deposition informing us that evidence of illegal Commerce activity had "left the building;" and "a huge box" hauled back to Camp David by said corrupt president under subpoena.
• left-lateral curvature of the spine -combines synergistically with tunnel vision and delusional tendencies to result in a grotesque, dysfunctional reverence for the cowardly, inept, narcissistic, seditious, corrupt rapist-pig proximate cause of 9/11.

 

 

2003 -- hillary's Iraq Turkey

"Purpose of missus clinton's Iraq-Afghanistan-Thanksgiving photo-op is to mine for material for prez campaign--HERS," charges unnamed dwarf

"The only turkeys here are the nine legitimate Democratic candidates. . . and the taxpayers, who are footing the bill." 

 

by Mia T, 11.26.03

ASHINGTON, Nov. 25--According to an unnamed source close to his campaign, one of the nine dwarfs is charging missus clinton with exploiting the war on terror… and at taxpayer expense… even as she continues to undermine the nine Democrats running for president.

"The purpose of clinton's Iraq-Afghanistan-Thanksgiving photo-op is to mine for material for the presidential campaign--HERS," huffs the dwarf, also unnamed. He continues, "The Iraq-Iowa connection was not lost on ME. The only turkeys here are the nine legitimate Democratic candidates… and the taxpayers, who are paying for clinton's junket... who ALWAYS pay for clinton junkets."

(viewing movie requires Flash Player 6, available HERE)

According to her own press release, missus clinton will not only use her Thanksgiving jaunt to defuse the clinton reputation for military effeteness and loathing; she will tackle the clinton record of rapes and other predations by arranging photo-ops with different groups of women of both countries. "I want to be sure that big-haired as well as burqaed women are involved," she said.

Citing security concerns, the exact itinerary of the trip was not disclosed. Missus clinton, who travels with Secret Service protection, (also at taxpayer expense), said she was not concerned about her safety, but her office would not discuss what, if any, extra protective efforts were made for her trip.

We have learned, however, that continuous sweeps will be made of missus clinton's person, looking for the activation of global-positioning nanodevices, i.e., NanoVarmin, that are believed to have been planted by the burgeoning anti-clinton Democrat opposition.

Have y'all seen this?

Sedition Acts of 1798 and 1918........do they still apply or are they just blue laws these days ? Didn't J.Edgar Hoover use these laws in the 50's and more recently used by US attorney against the terrorist suspects being collected up under that same law and "held" for questioning in the fight against pisslam and the muslimaniac's ??

Stay Safe !

>>>The real fault, I'm afraid, lies with those who refuse to hold these people accountable for their actions (and words).

Why can't WE hold her accountable? Why can't we file charges?

[Toespi]

Tony Snow is talking about these comments right now with Susan Estrich.

[thesummerwind]

That is close to treasonous -- an elected official being on foreign soil, decrying American foreign/military policy, in a war zone

I hear you. That's why I posted it. She is the worst human in this country right now, IMO. Can you name another American woman who has ever been this rightfully disdained?

[woodyinscc]

What I am thinking right now could never be typed on this forum.

I second this.

She and her faux husband are tools of the devil. What scares me, is there are actually people who would pull the lever for her. We are in a battle for the heart and soul of this nation. Hillary and her ilk, have to be decimated at the polls, and made forever moot.!!

And believe it or not, Susan Estrich is being brutally honest about Hillary with some of her commentary...

[TomGuy]

hahaha

Susan Estrich on FoxNews: Heck, if GWB could move TG to October next year, he should and make another trip to Bagdad.

[I've come to like Susan more and more. At least, she honest and gives praise where praise is due. (And she absolutely dislikes, putting it nicely, Hillary, so Susan can't be all bad.)]

[Calpernia]

Bump Mia!

[dokmad]

"The obstacles and problems here are much greater than the administration usually admits to," she said, adding, "Everybody has to be honest."

Everybody but her. What a political Fu***** Sow.

[thesummerwind]

My God do THOSE TWO pictures tell the story! Thanks. If they had just stoned her too!

[Peach]

Tony Snow just repeated on FNC the Hillary quote "the outcome is far from certain".

Susan Estridge said she hopes Hillary isn't hoping military action is far from certain because that would be ridiculous. I call it treasonous.

[the invisib1e hand]

"The obstacles and problems here are much greater than the administration usually admits to," she said...

She implies that the administration is lying to the troops and to the American public. This is patently divisive, and certainly does aid an enemy; being slicker than Willie, however, she interjected some gratuitous remarks about 'supporting the troops' and so she can't really be said to be supporting the enemy. Can she?
