Everyone knows that Hillary Clinton is wary of the media. Here's what that means, in real time, on the trail:
Step One: Receive an email from "Clinton Campaign, Press Office" saying that on Saturday, November 17 at 9:30 a.m. PST, Sen. Clinton will tour the Sheet Metal Workers International Association (SMWIA) Apprenticeship Facility at 2540 Marco Street, Las Vegas, Nevada--and that said tour is "OPEN PRESS."
Step Two: Go to 2540 Marco Street, Las Vegas, Nevada, where you are immediately told that, while Sen. Clinton is still planning to tour the facility, you, as a member of the press, are not actually allowed to tour it with her. Sigh.
Step Three: Follow a Clinton staffer and a dozen or so reporters and cameramen to a workroom in the far corner of the Apprenticeship Facility, then, at the staffer's command, assemble on the left side of a large table--and the left side only. Instead of a tour, you get a holding pen. "After she enters, Sen. Clinton will stop here"--indicates the opposite side of the table--"to speak with the facility director," the staffer will say. "You are to stay there. Then she will come over here"--walks to another table--"where she will look at these products. You will stay behind that piece of tape. Then she will exit through that door"--points to one side of the room--"and I will lead you out over there"--points to the opposite side of the room. Crack up when a colleague imitates the cheery Clinton staffer: "And this is the room where you can go f**k yourself!"

The Empress will be receiving supplicants at this time............
Will she be wearing a pants suit?
That was great. Of course, it will get no attention whatsoever, but if even the Newsweek folks are getting sick of her act, just maybe some of her arrogance will leak out to the general public.
This can’t possibly come as a surprise to this bozo. He saw what happens when the “media” has at her in Philadelphia a couple of weeks ago.
“Will she be wearing a pants suit?”
This is a set up right? So,....
Do bears poop in the woods?
OK, take it Freepers. Go,...
Was Jon Carry in Vietnam?
Is the Pope Catholic?
Does lipstick look good on a pig?
I’d like to hear some more good zingers about fat thighs and butts, not that this would relate to Herself the Hilldabeast, the Thighmaster in any shape or fat ugly form or anything like that.
Herself is the end of the world.
As the campaign gets closer, she’ll withdraw into an impenetrable shell of spin and deception. NO questions AT ALL will be tolerated. Any reporter who dares to inject any type of interrogatory will be ejected and banned from further participation in the press corps. Only “approved” questions will be asked and only “canned answers” will be given. She once remarked during the first BJC campaign, “The Republicans are the opposition, but the press is the enemy.”..........
Wow! Could it be that even her MSM sycophants are getting fed up with the royalty act?
The choreography of these photo-ops is astounding, but not if you’ve watched the Clintoons for the last FIFTEEN years..........
How long will this reporter continue to be employed by Newsweek? That is the next question.
Interesting how the dems excoriate President Bush for touring facilities as “photo-ops”, but her heinous copies him and considers it rational and “open press.”
Didn’t the press realize that getting as close as a table-width away from her was a huge boon to them!!
HerThighness’ handlers may be overestimating their ability to sustain this kind of bubble for an entire year.
How about “Do her pants make a swishing sound when she enters the room?”
All ways are the queen’s ways. Get use to it.
I heard someone recently remark that Hillary Clinton, before even being elected to the Presidency, acts like Richard Nixon did in the last few months before he resigned.
What amuses me is the thought that when Hillary is challenged on her claim to have “35 years of experience” she has to bite her tongue in order to not say “who do you think has been running everything for Bill Clinton ever since we hooked up at Yale,” which is a true statement, but which will not play well with the Clinton/Elvis-loving public.
