VIDEO: Hillary snaps on student
--------------------
KINSHASA, Congo -- U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton's temper flared on Monday when a Congolese university student asked her for her husband's thinking on an international financial matter.
A week after former President Bill Clinton traveled to North Korea to secure the release of two detained American journalists and stole the limelight from the start of his wife's first trip to Africa, Clinton was clearly displeased by the question at town hall forum in Kinshasa.
You want me to tell you what my husband thinks?" she replied incredulously when the male student asked her what "Mr. Clinton" thought of World Bank concerns about a multi-billion-dollar Chinese loan offer to the Congo.
"My husband is not secretary of state, I am," an obviously annoyed Clinton said sharply. "If you want my opinion, I will tell you my opinion. I am not going to be channeling my husband."
The question was left unanswered as the moderator of the event quickly moved on.

The video clip of Hillary's meltdown hasn't been posted yet, but it's a classic. She pulled the earphones out of her ears and said "I'm not channeling Bill Clinton, I am the Secretary of State."

He was sec. state for 6 hours and did more than she did in 7 months. Epic FAIL of a Secretary.

Hillary, the correct response is, “I can’t comment on my husband’s thoughts, but if you’ll give your name, email and question to one of our volunteers I’ll make sure he gets it. I can’t however guarantee an answer.”

Snippet:
It was not immediately clear why Clinton reacted with such umbrage, and she quickly recovered her cool and moved on to other subjects Monday. Just before the question that set off her anger, another student had asked if the U.S. and the West felt a need to apologize to the people of Congo for colonialism and postcolonial interference.
“I cannot excuse the past and I will not try,” she said. “We can either think about the past and be imprisoned by it or we can decide we’re going to have a better future and work to make it.”
