Now now, no need to be so cynical...

WASHINGTON (CNN) -- Sen. Hillary Clinton drew criticism Tuesday for a Martin Luther King Jr. Day speech in which she told a mostly black audience at a Harlem church that Republican leaders have run the House "like a plantation" and the Bush administration will go down as "one of the worst" in U.S. history.
Responding to the speech, House Speaker Dennis Hastert called her remarks "a little bit over the top."
"I've never run a plantation before. I'm not even sure of what kind of association she's trying to make," said the speaker, a Republican from Illinois. "If she's trying to be racist, I think that's unfortunate, but I'm not going to comment any further on that."
One of Clinton's Republican congressional colleagues from New York, Rep. Peter King, said the senator "should be ashamed."

No way that anyone who cares about this country will vote for ANY 3rd party candidate if that means possibly putting Hitlery in the Oval Office (and remember, the Rapist-in-Chief comes along for the ride as "co-president")!
This is just what she sounds like now. Imagine what she's going to sound like with some national campaign stress thrown into the mix and a mike in her face 24x7.
She's almost guaranteed to make the stupid statement hall of fame (shame), and she'll never be elected to national office.
Yes they were. This seems to apply rather well to her.
"Half of the harm that is done in this world is due to people who want to feel important. They don't mean to do harm. But the harm does not interest them. Or they do not see it, because they are absorbed in the endless struggle to think well of themselves." —T.S. Elliot
Just as the black DeMARXocrats use the race card to make a very profitable living.
It is getting so very tiring.
The Clintons are the perfect example of a bigot.
According to them, they have alot of 'colored friends'.
What happened to Vernon Jordan, Clinton's good buddy. Don't see Clinton paling around with him anymore.
In fact, when do you ever see the Clintons hanging out with anyone of color?
Pres an Mrs Bush have Condoleeza Rice as a frequent guest at the ranch and she has been close to the Bush family for quite awhile, going back to G.H. Bush.
Clinton's Black friends were as big of a prop as that Bible you don't see in his hand anymore.
I really really am liking Peter King. :-)
Oh, and has everyone made full note of the Senator by the name of Hillary Clinton? Is it understood why I don't fear this woman, and no one else should either? She is not the most brilliant woman. She is not well liked or she wouldn't have risked this bad press to attempt to win back the Hard Left. She doesn't have Clinton's oily insincere people skills. She is where she is because of her husband and handlers. Without Bill Clinton, she wouldn't even be Senator. I don't fear this woman in a national campaign, where try as they might, the real Hillary will escape.
Now now, no need to be so cynical...
:) You're up late.
Good quote and appropriate.
LOL! Forgot about that one.
I think that's where he's pinching Chelsea's butt cheek.
And here I was going to say that even Chelsea hangs out with only rich, white people. Versace, Maddonna, Gwyneth....
You forgot the 51-49 split on AOL that agrees with Hillary that the Bush Administration is one of the worst in history. That's a question they would have never asked about the Clinton Administration.
Some jungle fever going on there....
Right, and not to forget the KKK was created by Democrats to prevent Blacks from voting for Republicans.
Hell...with the dead vote, that puts her in the lead in Illinois, Pennsylvania, and Michigan.
What is the purpose of this dissent they keep defending? If that is all they have to offer, we can move on, as they say.
The dems only purpose is to lie and defame the President over and over until it sticks in uneducated peoples minds as the truth.
Hillary is not well liked at some of the dem forums now. Trying to play 'middle of the road' isn't working for her.
Hot stuff!
LOL!! Wish I could shorten that into an awesome tagline
I wish it was solid black behind the fire. It could have been cropped off and used in other things. I may be able to do some of those things when I learn more!
