Hillary Clinton: Deep, Gifted And A Survivor (Barf Alert)
IBD ^ | September 4, 2007 | David S. Broder

Posted on 09/04/2007 8:45:14 PM PDT by Kaslin

As the serious stage of the presidential campaign begins this fall, Hillary Clinton has clearly established herself in the lead of the race for the Democratic nomination. That makes her the most worthy subject for examination among all the White House prospects.

I have been thinking a lot about Sen. Clinton, because part of my vacation reading was Carl Bernstein's fine political biography of her, "A Woman in Charge," published earlier this year. Its 600 pages, carefully reported and written with a commendable evenness of tone, offer perhaps the fullest portrait of this potential president.

The single strongest impression it leaves is that this is a complex, talented person who has lived — and survived — a really hard life. As she nears her 60th birthday and the largest challenge of her career, the scars of those earlier experiences are plainly visible. What lies underneath the scar tissue is harder to discern.

A survivor?

She had cancer?
She had her marriage fail?
She got sent to prison?

Really? Do tell.

She’s sure a survivor.Why,her quick thinking in ordering a cleansing of Vince Foster’s office after his death saved her from being indicted on at least several felonies.

“As a talented young lawyer, with every prospect of reaching the top herself, her decision to go off to Arkansas ...”

Talented lawyer???

Maybe she married herself off to Arkansas to try to pass their bar exam, after having failed in the District, eh?

Of course, the DEM is the most worthy.

They don't even hide it anymore.

What’s a political writer for the WaPo doing in IBD? I am disgusted.

No weegee, that’s all just a publicity stunt. Her and her husband have the perfect marriage.

No one in the history of politicians in DC has as extensive a list of “dead” associates than Hitlery and Bubba. That alone should be reason enough to dump this vile, hateful, vindictive, corrupt witch.

HILLARY is now calling herself a survivor.

What about those who did not survive in S.E. Asia after HILLARY supported Communist North Vietnam’s push to enslave the then Free South Vietnamese People during the Vietnam War, horridly bringing down on them:

Gaggggg me with a spoon. What we have here is a hard core narcissist, who will say and do whatever it takes to get what she wants because she believes she is owed.

She is only loyal to herself she can’t function without being in charge.

Juanita Broaddrick is a survivor. Hillary is an enabler.

A Woman in Charge

In charge of what? What executive authority has she had? Has she even run a donut shop? She's been a staff lawyer, a law partner (senior enough to work on running it? I don't know), and a political wife. She may have been made a partner in her law firm largely because she could sell political access to XXX-42.

I don’t want to hear about her hard life, she’s a predator, predators don’t have hard lives, and there’s nothing deep about victimizing people, it’s pure animal. She is not a complex woman, she was raised by fake people who ended up creating a monster. What’s so deep about that?
