[history]
Sen. Hillary Clinton apologized for calling Mahatma Gandhi a "curry-eating cow hugger" during a fund-raiser in St. Louis.
Some thought the phrase as well spun as Jimmy Carter's "Montezuma's revenge" and Jesse Jackson's "hymietown."
But Sen. Clinton was mortified. She claimed the vast right-wing conspiracy slipped into the speech a copy of her diary entry about Bill after the Lewinsky affair broke. Hillary didn't discover the dirty trick before it was too late.

Try to imagine the reaction if, oh, Newt Gingrich had said Dr. King ran a barbecue shack before he got into marching. But Democrat hate speech gets a bye. That is SO TRUE!!

What's wrong with that? She knows about Ghandi's station because Hillary's KFC is right next door.

Isn't Apu Ghandi the guy on The Simpsons who runs the QuickeeMart?
Boy, it's a good thing Lott didn't say this; he'd have to leave the country! How can anyone questions the leftward, pro-dem lean of most of the media in this country?

She said what she said and she meant what she said it's as simple as that. People should make a bigger stink out of it than they have. That's also as simple as that. Those who have the media at their disposal should be talking about this loud and clear but...they won't.

Sen. Hillary Clinton apologized...No she didn`t. She said she regrets saying it. This article has her down as saying:
"It was a lame attempt at humor, and I am very sorry that it might be interpreted in a way that causes stress to anyone," Mrs. Clinton said
They`re misquoting her. (On purpose?)What she said was:
"It was a lame attempt at humor, and I regret that it might be interpreted in a way that causes stress to anyone"

Good article and I am glad someone still thinks it important enough to write about. The silence overall on Hillary's humor, has been deafening.
Amazing no one points out, that humor, lame or otherwise, begins with that person's perception of truth.
And yes, the Left OFTEN betray themselves; their hate slips out. . .and because the Left-wing media share the same perspective; they do not even see it; and should they, they would not report it as such anyway.
