A comment that Hillarys statement was ridiculous is hardly "dissing" Hillary. Its merely a plain outspoken fact.
Her comment was ridiculous.
Shouldn't that be:
""And you people know what I am talking about," she said.
Can you think of another instance when a former First Lady deserved to be upbraided for inappropriate remarks?
I don't think you ought to be reading my posts, sarge. You misinterpret so thoroughly.
"Hillary's a _____________. And you know what I am talking about"
Oooh! Oooh! I know, I know! Hillary's a plantation. And you're talking about her thighs.
Plenty of times, when the FFL is HRC.
I only read what you write Gray. Sorry about that.
True. I should have asked about FFL, not a particular incident. There are so many with this one.
Who is Hillary most afraid of in 2008? Rice.
Are you trying to say Dr. Rice is on the pubbie plantation? Besides the obvious sex difference, what's the difference in calling conservative blacks, "Uncle Toms"?
Somebody did not control Hillary! at this event, and she was just being her normal charming self. There are people whose job it is, 24/7, to keep Hillary! from making an a$$ of herself. I guess they figured in front of a friendly crowd on MLK day, they didn't have to worry. Somebody dropped the ball.
It's funny, but the same thing happened to her husband, back in 1995. There were people who were assigned, round the clock, to keeping the President out of the pants of the nearest available female. But when the furlough came during the government shutdown of 1995, these employees were considered non-essential. The second day of the furlough, Monica Lewinsky came waltzing into the Oval Office with a slice of pizza for the Boss, and the rest is history.
And I don't mean to bite your head off, sarge. Just a mite shocked that there could be any question of Mrs. Bush's justification, or the Beast's deserving a dissing.
As an obsessive factoid collector I was fishing for some precedent. Any First Lady taking a whack at another FL.
Oh: the beast deserves a dissing allright.
Too bad one of the Republican Senators doesnt have the courage to do it.
I think using the term ridiculous for what Hillary said is a little tame. She used the term "Plantation" in a nasty manner and meant it to be as vicious as she could make it.
She was playing to a black audience and as Rev. Sharpton said, He liked it. Well If Al Sharpton liked it you can bet the others there liked it to. Hillary knows her audience and she doesnt mind taking cheap shots. The Republicans letting her get away with it is what boils my water.
They run their campaigns based on the fears of different voting blocs of people. i.e., plantations for blacks, take Medicare benefits away from seniors, and deport ALL Mexicans. The ONLY thing the RATS know how to do is to scare people with the one thing that their bloc of voters are afraid of. That's because they have NOTHING else to run on.
If I remember correctly, I think, Ross Perot, used the phrase "you People' and the MSM, and dems jumped all over him... I think it speaking to a group of black people.
They did a DNA test on that one, I thought. (Turned out OK for Clinton).
Does look more like him than his so-ugly daughter.
It's a team effort.
He's the race-traitor forman that rounds up the blacks.
Hillary Clinton is the silliest woman I have ever heard and seen. What she says is just plain stupid.
