Friends and family of Former Senator Daniel Patrick Moynihan are more than miffed at Junior Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton (Democrat-NY) who broke the news to a stunned United States Senate Chamber last week that the longtime New York Democratic Senator had died.

'That was not hers to announce, it was classless,' says a family representative.

The family had planned to issue a statement Wednesday at 6:30 PM, but Senator Clinton spilled the beans earlier without the family's okay.

What happened?

Clinton associates say she was in a caucus meeting when an aide told the group of Moynihan's death.

Since she had replaced Moynihan, Clinton ran with the news.

Par for the course..

[Freedom'sWorthIt]

She of course announced his death! It was a TRIUMPHAL ANNOUNCEMENT that another of her "enemies" was dead.

[Only1choice____Freedom]

Classless

Clinton

Redundant

[freedomlover]

Yeah right the Moynihan family is so mad at her now. But they will all vote for her next election. Even Daniel Patrick will.

[aShepard]

No problem.

It wasn't for the children, so she was free to speak

[prairiebreeze]

"Classless" is what the Clintoons know best. Also "clueless".

Jr. Senator Hiliary "social retard" Clinton.

Of course Hillary! did the classless thing. She wouldn't want to disappoint her fans!

[1Old Pro]

I thought that Hillary being first on this was very odd. I couldn't believe the family would want that and I suspected that she just wanted the headline.....I was right. Hillary is rotten to the core.

[ewing]

I guess she's used to it with all of the Arkancides..

'That was not hers to announce, it was classless,' says a family representative.

Hillary's entire life is classless and anyone claiming that she has any class (other than low) is either deaf, dumb or blind.

[ewing]

Didn't Hillary try and call a vote when Strom was going to the hospital? (and trip him on the way out of the chamber)

[BluH2o]

Hildabeast is on the Armed Forces Committee ... a travesty by any measure ... made even more so knowing she can't keep her mouth shut. What a joke ...

[Ann Archy]

What did they expect?? He pt his blessing on her and it's the only reason she won the damn seat.

I heard Mike Barnicle this morning on Imus said that Moynihan would drink BEER for breakfast!! I guess if you wear a bow tie and have a pinchy ind of look and talk you can pass yourself off as something other than a drunkard.

[veronica]

Not a surprise. The Clintons have zero class. I recall how Hillary stepped all over Rick Lazio's concession speech. And how Bubba broke with tradition on inauguration day, and tried to make it about HIM. The Clintons are beyond crass.

[mombonn]

We'll tell by the seating arrangements at the funeral just how miffed the family really is. 10-1 says sinator hillary! still gets a better seat than the senior sinator from NY.

[Mister Baredog]

Since she had replaced Moynihan, Clinton ran with the news.

Clinton ran to get her face on the news.

[Hildy]

Maybe this will allow the family to say what Daniel REALLY thought of her.

Re: Arkansides

The real problem is when Hillary! makes the announcement before they're dead...

[Freedom'sWorthIt]

Yes, they have film of Hillary running Sen. Thurmond down in the halls of the Senate, I believe. (But I have not seen it - just read about it).

Yes her Arkancides removed many of her enemies. Then on 9-11 she used terrorists to remove one of her WORST enemies. Sen. Moynihan no doubt simply succumbed to the illness that took him to the hospital - or to poor hospital care - whichever. But, it does not matter. He opposed her Healthcare TAkeover (thank God) and he, therefore, was a marked man as an enemy of the "Regime".

She was, therefore, EXULTING in his death. There are no two ways about it.

[gridlock]

If the family stiffs Hillary! on the funeral arrangements, she will have some unavoidable emergency that makes it impossible for her to attend. If Chelsea trips and falls in the next couple of days, you'll all know why.

And is Seamus is smart, he'll stay in the house!
