Shalala's getting used ... again! Remember how BJClinton shoved her into the spotlight (along with other Clinton cabinet members) to help him deny the Lewinski allegations?
From CNN, January 23, 1998:
[Following Clinton's "I did not have sex with that woman, Miss Lewinksy" press conference] Clinton did meet this morning with his Cabinet and afterward, his appointees voiced their support. Secretary of State Madeleine Albright said, "I believe the allegations are completely untrue." Commerce Secretary William Daley added "I'll second that. Definitely." "Third it," said Health and Human Services Secretary Donna Shalala.
Trump gets called Hitler everyday for over a year.
Bad reference, but Twitter criticism says Trump Jr was making “a joke” out of the Holocaust. He was not making a joke. He was saying the media would figuratively kill any Republican guilty of Hillary’s behavior.
If people are going to be this sensitive, then words like “tsunami” and others shouldn’t be used so lightly in reference to politics. The Boxing Day tsunami killed a lot of people and was a great tragedy.
I’m sure there are even better examples. If he had said “raked over the coals,” he probably would have been lambasted for insensitivity to people who are literally raked over coals.
I think they used to execute convicts in a gas chamber, and this might be his metaphor rather than the Holocaust.
Democrats are the smooth liars... we tell it like it is....
How does a reference to a gas chamber automatically equate to a reference to the Holocaust? If I’m not mistaken, the gas chamber was used for criminal executions both before and after the Holocaust.
It’s only “dumb” by standards of political correctness, probably the most dehumanizing force ever invented.
The ability to recognize and morally discard political correctness should be a feature of IQ testing.
Wow...what a stupid thing for him to say...craps on his excellent Saudi/Hillary attack yesterday
That video was hilarious.
Are the democrats short circuiting? It Trump Sr. who is running for president!
I’m sure him taking out that triceratops on safari is what really got the media’s ire....
He does this on purpose...the words are carefully chosen... he knows the press is reactionary and in a hurry to break the story... also he knows that once the right people repeat it, it will be carried through the echo chamber and he will get much more response than if he just said that the left would line them up and shoot them....and in reality... he didn’t say anything about world war ii... he just said the left would be ready to gas them... gas has been used by our enemies in more recent wars than ww ii. Sadam Hussein used gas on the Kurds.
We’re probably looking at about 20 actual a s s a s s I n a t i o n attempts against Trump.
security has been awesome. He is very brave and very high profile.But they are really in desperation as the vice closes tighter. When hillary has her next seizure she is finished. It may be too late because military ballots have gone out and many absentee ballots are printed.
