Hillary Responds to Accusations Her Campaign Planted Questions At Public Appearances

Sunday , November 11, 2007 By Major Garrett

SIOUX CITY, Iowa — Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton responded to allegations Sunday that her presidential campaign had planted questions during public appearances.

At a media event in Waterloo, Iowa, Clinton responded to a reporter's question about two separate incidents, one that occurred this week at a biodiesel plant in Newton, and the other in April on a farm outside Fort Madison, both in Iowa.

"Well it was news to me" Clinton said. "And neither I nor my campaign approve of that. And it will certainly not be tolerated."

The reporter went on to ask if she knew of other incidents beyond those reported.

Clinton responded saying, "You know everything I know."

Clinton's presidential campaign came under fire Friday when FOX News first reported that a Grinnell College student was prompted to ask Clinton a question about climate change.

Did her nose grow? Did the reporter laugh?

Exactly!!! How can she be president if she knows nothing about tips, drivers licenses for illegals, planted questions, husband having affairs. She lives on another planet apparently.

Ain’t it the tragic truth — the people ARE STUPID. And these carpetbagging socialist liars know it.

Hillary sez the planted questions were news to her.

Then, how did she know who to call on for the question?

One question I would like to see asked of Mrs. Clinton on this Veterans Day is, does she have a loathing of the military as does her husband. Of course that does not make any dfference to our enlightened electorate so why ask the question. (pissed off Iraqi vet)

"Well it was news to me" Clinton said.

Only two possibilities here.

A, she's lying. And we know she is.

But if she's not lying AND SHE REALLY DOES NOT KNOW WHAT HER OWN CAMPAIGN STAFF DOES IN HER NAME.......

........we're going to entrust her to run the country?

Kristol’s comments are absurd. Hillary is neither an experienced not capable candidate. She is lacking in experience and where is there proof of her being capable? She is too frightened to appear on FOX, she is unable/unwilling to answer simple questions, she say stupid things, etc.

“Oh, so what if her staff planted questions in a town meeting. That would be a petty criticism. What I would recomend is we focus on the new Kathleen Willey book. From what I heard that sounds real scary.”

I heard on a talk show last week where Kathleen Willey met a guy that asked her about her missing cat. When she asked him if he had seen the cat, the guy asked “How are your children” and he new all their names. Kinda Spooky, Huh.

You forgot the sarcasm tag when you say “enlightened electorate”...

The ones who will vote their vaginas and put She Who Must Not Be Named back for her third term.

As far as the military loathing, She demonstrated that all through her first two terms - the flag-rank officers serving drinks, for one.

Thanks for posting this article.

“I’m not going to comment on what he said,” said Elleithee said, referring to Mitchell.
(I am ignoring your question, because I got caught lying)

“I’m going to discuss what our interpretation is.

(Forget the truth. You are under my command. You will write what I tell you)

They had a previous relationship, the subject came up and there’s nothing more to it than that.

(I know they knew each other, even though I don’t know either one of them)

It’s not newsworthy.

(It is newsworthy)

It’s innocent.

(It was not an innocent mistake)

It’s not yesterday.”

(Can’t we just move on? Or would you like me to kill your cat?)

"Well it was news to me" Clinton said.

Either she's too ignorant of what her own people are doing, or she's a liar. Either way, why would ANYone with a brain want this woman to be POTUS?
