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.
Our Secretary of State, schlupping through the turd world, can’t handle a question like this without getting huffy. Her widdle bitty feewings got hurt. Who is doing the real work of the Secretary of State regarding nations like Russia, China, and our major military and trade allies?
I posted the video of this in post # 241. They cut off the best part when she rolls her eyes. Anybody have the full video?
Hillary, please, please, please, wear clothes that fit more formly to your body. You look like an overweight piece of trailer trash sitting up there on the stage. You know, kind of like the women your husband have boinked over the years.
I thought for sure You would find something to reply back about within that length of creative writing imagry...:)I was looking forward to Your on Thread reply.
I even cussed,LOL!
YOU MUST SEE THIS VIDEO!!! You need to change to headline to add this. Words cannot describe. I thought Obama and dems were going to show all love to the non USA peeps. What they didn’t really mean it, SHOCKED SHOCKED.
Perfect. Kudos. She is also looking a little like Jabba the Hut sitting there drooling and spittle following her vitrol.
Didn’t Barbara Boxer do something insecurely similar. CALL ME SENATOR!!! To a male. Hmm if shoe on other foot, sexist claim.
As someone on another site said:
“Sure she can be pissed... but she can’t “show “it, she can’t lose her cool. Why? Because she is Secretary of State, THE chief diplomat of the country and she got unhinged over a reference to her husband. She needs to accept the fact that most likely she is where she is because of her husband and all the globe people still see her as Bill Clinton’s wife. She certainly should have been more polite, but it is quite clear how insecure she is about it.
I am Secretary of State!!1!”

“Call me Senator!!1!”
Question came...then Clinton got real active in polishing/buffing up her chair seat, then her reply came too soon, before she could "control" her thoughts to verbal skills.
Sen-si-tive!
Three Our Father’s and three Hail Mary’s for making me have to scrub my eyes of that image...
You could have fooled me! Why didn’t they send her instead
of him to N. Korea?
Thanks - all that is missing is the toilet planter and six kids in diapers. She fits right in.
I know. That was my point.
Bwahaha! Brilliant analogy. And you know she treats the SS the way Basil treats that poor little Spanish guy.
“master” —> “massuh”
“The ENQUIERER Reports exclusively this week! Hillary's secret strategy to WIN BILL BACK!” /LOL
Any historians out there know of another instance where a sitting Secretary of State lost his or her temper while on official duty in a foreign country?
