Hillary Clinton: I'm Secretary of State, Not Bill (Hillary has hissy fit)

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 am not going to be channeling my husband.

Interesting choice of words, really. Let's not forget that Hillary can channel people - like Eleanor Roosevelt, if I'm not mistaken. Perhaps just the other night she had a big channeling session with someone and the topic was still fresh on her mind. What's in the heart comes out on the tongue? Sometimes I wonder about the spiritual / occult influences on these people.

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.

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!”

look all offended

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!

She's not the czar, others have the plum foreign policy briefs, she just has the left-overs & a title.

I know. That was my point.

My teen daughter said, “Hillary Clinton is to diplomacy what Basil Fawlty is to hospitality.”

Bwahaha! Brilliant analogy. And you know she treats the SS the way Basil treats that poor little Spanish guy.

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?
