Heres what she said today about Trumps now-famous Q&A last night, via Mediaite: He knew or he should have known that what that man was asking was not only way out of bounds, it was untrue, she continued. And he should have, from the beginning, repudiated that kind of rhetoric, that level of hatefulness in a questioner in an audience that he was appearing before. So I would call on him and call on all of the candidates to stop this descent into the kind hateful, mean-spirited, divisive rhetoric that we have seen too much of in the last months.
I think it is prejudiced, I think it is discriminatory, and I think that it comes out of the unfortunate reservoir of hateful rhetoric that we have seen too much of where people are being set against one another, and that has no place in our politics, she said.
BACKSTORY--- Slate, February 25, 2008:
Today, the Drudge Report posted a big, fat headline that howled, Clinton staffers circulate Muslim-dressed Obama pic. ---- a picture of Obama on a diplomatic trip to Kenya in 2006, wearing traditional dress of the areacomplete with a turban-looking Muslim headdress
First, the Obama campaign sent around a press release at 9:29 a.m. from campaign manager David Plouffe, in which he said the photo is exactly the kind of divisive politics that turns away Americans of all parties and diminishes respect for America in the world.
Then, at 10:54 a.m., Clintons campaign manager, Maggie Williams, pierced the quiet with her own release. Enough, she wrote. If Barack Obamas campaign wants to suggest that a photo of him wearing traditional Somali clothing is divisive, they should be ashamed. Hillary Clinton has worn the traditional clothing of countries she has visited and had those photos published widely. She goes on to say Obama is trying to distract from the serious issues. Note that they never refuted Drudges piece
In December, the [Clinton] campaign asked two of its employees to resign after they proliferated rumors that Obama was a Muslim.
Let me remind you again, as I did this morning, that Hillary herself once hedged when asked if Obama was a Muslim, saying there was no evidence of that as far as I know.
========================================
FOR ADDITIONAL REFRESHMENT: dive into this immensely enjoyable article from Politico in which 20 big-name Democrats try and fail miserably to name one meaningful Hillary Clinton accomplishment. Barbara Boxers submission, no joke, is galvanizing the Senate after the tragedy of 9/11 to rebuild the city, as if that wouldnt have happened without her. --SNIP--
Now's a good time for Obama to amend his will to leave
his eyeballs to science. The jaundiced, cockeyed way
he views the world demands science take a looksee.
Maybe Obama's got a rare eyeball-eating disease.
Maybe something he caught on disease-ridden Chicago
streets as a community organizer....maybe gonorrhea of
the eye sockets?
