New York Sen. Hillary Clinton forced U.S. troops stationed at Bagram air base in Afghanistan to wait for their Thanksgiving dinner last Thursday, while she and her entourage arrived late, then cut in line and were served first.
A soldier who witnessed the scene tells NewsMax:
"Thanksgiving Dinner started at 3 p.m. that day, so the line was forming around 2:30 p.m. She didn't show up until around 3:30 p.m.
"Once she got there," our source maintains, "Clinton and her entourage bumped everyone in line, forcing them to wait almost an extra hour."
The brass at Bagram apparently had a hard time rounding up New Yorkers who wanted to have dinner with Mrs. Clinton. Only six G.I.'s responded to an email sent out last week that stated, "Looking for military members from New York and Rhode Island interested in meeting their Senator/Congressman."
People Magazine was on hand to cover the event and wanted to interview the troops for reaction to Mrs. Clinton's visit.
"But they were getting declined left and right," our source said. "People were actually telling the reporters 'You don't want to print what I think about her and her visit.'"
After Clinton and her entourage departed, the only topics G.I.s wanted to talk about were "how great the food was and how fantastic they thought George Bush's visit to Iraq was."
Gid! This evil creature doesn't even make a pretense of class or propriety!

ROTFLMBO! Oh I do wish they'd given their honest reactions. Unfortunately, they would never see the light of day. The media, after all, has to protect its precious poster b*tch darling.
Oh, that's easy enough to deal with.n She'll just have her operatives dispose of the military ballots as was done in 2000 and 2002 in several places.

For instance; FoxNews nightly news still is only watched by around 12% of the viewers that watch See-BS, NBC, and ABC newscasts. So right there, it's Fox News 1 - those three awful networks 25. 25 to 1. Not good!
Listen I gotta get out of here about now. Just let me ask you this. We here at FR (well, many here at FR) know about Hillary's evil, dispiriting words to the troops in Iraq over Thanksgiving, Right? Well, the mainstream media ignored those words, covered up for her. Subsequently (and I am a numbers person) at this time, I'd say no more than about 5 to10% of Americans know of her words to the troops. And that estimate is high.
You see, the vast majority of voting Americans do not know the details of the evils of the liberal Democrat movement. Why? The mainstream media will not tell them, and in fact they color the liberals' activities to make them look like the good guys. There are still a great, great majority of Americans who are not "enlightened". Watch Leno's "JAYWALKING" if you want a REAL hint at the stupidity out there.
I'd like to talk with you more about this later.
Again, I appreciate your optimistic outlook, and I don't relish changing it. I'm 57 years old and I've spent close to 40 years studying the pervasive influence on Americans' opinion by ALL media. 40 years. The influence is subtle and everywhere, and every day it is terribly destructive to the country and the people. I think you are seeing life through rose-colored glasses, but in a way, I'm envious. Unfortunately numbers speak for themselves.
Ask yourself what percentage of voters know anything about the deviousness of Jay Rockefeller and his staff concerning the Intelligence Committee Memo, and the plans therein! Hardly anyone in America knows about that, and, some that do, think the Republicans were wrong there because of the distortion of the story by the mainstream media who even bothered to cover it.
You have to see that the informed are a tiny fraction of the voting public still, and it's just the way the media owners want it - keep the public uninformed, and prop up the liberal, socialist Democrats. (Why do you think that Viacom protect and promote Hillary by removing the loud chorus of boos from the 9/11 New York Concert video? Huh? Answer?
It's all news distortion and outright news ignoring, and protection of liberals for the benefit of the socialist powerful.
It's not pretty, but, I must admit happily, that it's getting better, there is a little light. But it must get better much, much faster to attempt to save this country. I feel the evil ones are way too ingrained for way too many decades to make enough change quickly enough.
Power is power, that is one thing you have to face..........and then fight........or die!
See you later, hopefully. It's better to know the truth than to avoid it. Then try to do something about it. BTW, I do know how to do something about it. More later, please. Gotta go.
She holds up traffic in New York City for hours. Her hubby holds up airline traffic in LA for hours. These people are pathetic.
What I'd like to know is where the senator traveling with her was. Who did he eat with and when?
My favorite..........

That deserves a big thumbs up. : *)
