Worse. I remember when she was mistaken for the Secretary of State.
Gads, what an embarrassment *that* was.
Today is a good day to die.
I didn't say for whom.

In Washington, bigwigs can misspeak and misstep a million times without drawing attention. And then there are the seemingly harmless moments that stick to a person like super glue: Joe Wilson barking “You lie!”; Jesse Jackson mumbling into a hot mic that he wants to castrate Barack Obama; Dan Quayle trying to spell things.
Like coal crushed into diamonds by the pressure of a million eyeballs, such moments are forever.
During an exclusive dinner hosted Monday by the Alfalfa Club, Obama adviser Valerie Jarret had just such a moment. And were it not for an irritated tipster, Jarret might have walked away from the dinner unblemished.
According to our tipster, Jarrett was seated at the head table along with several other big-name politicians and a handful of high-ranking military officials. As an officer sporting several stars walked past Jarrett, she signaled for his attention and said, “I’d like another glass of wine.”

“Miss Jarrett there are suds in your chardonnay.”
A favorite story of Thurgood Marshall: Marshall was the sole occupant of the private justice’s elevator, when some unsuspecting tourists wandered into it. Finding a lone black man there they said, “First floor please.” “Yowsa, Yowsa,” responded Marshall as he pretended to operate the self service elevator. After holding the door for the tourists as they exited, he also left the elevator, noting their puzzlement and then confusion as he walked off and they realized who he was.

Suddenly, stoning makes sense to me.
Exactly ... and they wonder why they weren't invited to Prince William's wedding.
The liberals I know think they’re the ones who have the education and sophistication to run things properly. The historian-type liberals I know (who are fewer than you might think) realize that creating their own SA is a mistake. Grassroot, violent organizations tend to get out of hand.
Regardless of what Beck might say, their strategy of working within the U.S. and State governments is working quite well, and there’s no reason to change procedures. Forming a paramilitary could go wrong quite quickly, and they know it.
Vanessa’s story fails if anyone thinks about it. WH help don’t dress in formal at State Dinners, as all guests do. Not really likely even a dumbarse friend of the Clintons, who are so into ‘celebrity,’ would either not know who Vanessa Williams was or ask a formally dressed woman - black, white, yellow or red - to perform a servant’s function.
In case anyone forgot, this “woman” is a slumlord.
Don’t forget this little tidbit.....
Ready to Rule.......
Hideous beast.
She’s disgusting, and the amount of power she has behind the scenes is sickening. How is a slumlord qualified to run the WH?
And it’s also disgusting that no one at the table had the guts to discreetly correct this classless affirmative action moron. Not that I would have done it discreetly.
