The Associated Press

April 20, 2007

NEW BRUNSWICK, N.J. - Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton met Friday with Rutgers women's basketball coach C. Vivian Stringer, and proclaimed that Rutgers "has a chance to be the leader of this teachable moment" on standing up to discrimination and marginalization.

"Will you be willing to speak up and say, 'Enough is enough,' when women or minorities or the powerless are marginalized or degraded?" Clinton said in her speech to about 700 people at a university forum on women and public leadership. "Will you say there's no place , if there ever was, there certainly isn't now , for disrespect or bigotry to be seen as funny?"

Hillary Clinton 'truly regrets' Gandhi joke Remarks called stereotypical, racially insensitive

January 7, 2004

ST. LOUIS, Missouri (AP) -- Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton apologized for joking that Mahatma Gandhi used to run a gas station in St. Louis, saying it was "a lame attempt at humor."

The New York Democrat made the remark at a fund-raiser Saturday. During an event here for Senate candidate Nancy Farmer, Clinton introduced a quote from Gandhi by saying, "He ran a gas station down in St. Louis."

The team didn’t even know who Don Imus was, or that he had insulted them.

Absurd story. Yes Imus was wrong but these girls probably hear worse at most road games. There is no way this should be a national issue that involves all sorts of political figures.

Uh, Senator, that would include the unborn? I would be correct in making that assumption, Senator?

The only audience this putrid carpetbagger will face is a BUNCH OF KIDS. Something at her level. She does not have the guts to face a strong candidate that would eat her lunch easily -—

Take a hard look America at what the mindless would vote for!!!

Enough is enough,' when women or minorities or the powerless are marginalized or degraded?

Hillary Rotten covered-up the rape and other assaults her husband committed. We had enough of Hillary Rotten! Enough is enough. I can't stand her anymore. I may switch to Democrat to vote for Obama in the primaries. She is just disgusting.

"Will you be willing to speak up and say, 'Enough is enough,' 'I'm scarred for life!' when women or minorities or the powerless are marginalized or degraded by some stupid shock jock?" Clinton said in her speech "Will you say 'Enough is enough' when your husband rapes another woman on the campaign trail?"

How about all that Hollywood/Rap Music money she and her husband have been taking from leftist Democrats, those who promote the Rap singers and their hateful, anti-women, lyrics and videos?

When you look up the word “hyprocite” in the dictionary, it says, “SEE the Clintons” under “scum”.
