NEW YORK - A day after Hillary Clinton blasted the Bush administration and compared the Republican-controlled House of Representatives to a plantation, Republicans said Tuesday that the New York senator was out of line.
House Speaker Dennis Hastert, R-Ill., said that Clinton was probably a little over the top, NBC News reported. He also said that having never run a plantation, he was unsure Clinton was implying, but if she was trying to be racist, that is unfortunate.
Clinton said on Monday had said Bushs administration was one of the worst in U.S. history and said the House has been run like a plantation, and you know what Im talking about.
She said the House has been run in a way so that nobody with a contrary view has had a chance to present legislation, to make an argument, to be heard.

Sounds like her propane tank on the BBQ is running low. Let's hope she recharges it soon.
I love desemmbilation in the morning...it smells...like...defeat.
I think I just made up a new word!!!
This from a woman whose tampon had no African-Americans in high-profile positions in his Administration.
You got that right rollo. I know people like Sean Hannity fawn over old Joe as being a great guy even if he is a democrat but his performance as Al Gore's running mate was despicable. He repudiated every principled stand he ever took. I can't stand seeing him on TV or listening to him. And I guess he is about the best the dem party has to offer!
I can see the '08 ticket now, Massa Hillary and Chocolate Nagin.
"That last quote is a ripper!"
Yes, we almost never hear from Nancy Pelosi or other liberal House members like Henry Waxman or John Murtha. It's like Murtha's dropped off the face of the Earth--there is no telling what he's doing or where he's been. Meanwhile, you simply can't avoid hearing all the conservative talking points repeated ad nauseum on the MSM. That MSM is like a parrot for Tom DeLay, I tell you!
/blistering sarcasm
Sounds like what staffers and secret service people in the Clinton admin reported of her.
I'm glad to see Shrilly shrieking from the top of her lungs. This kind of stuff only helps here with the far left. She's giving us clips for election ads in 2008. I can see one now: Vote for Hillary and see what you can watch on TV every day for four years!
I've heard that even Hillary's bras don't support her. ;)
Why are they so seemingly scared to go after the old bat?
She said the House has been run in a way so that nobody with a contrary view has had a chance to present legislation, to make an argument, to be heard.
Vince Foster would like to have been heard rather than murdered.
That woman is a Idiot!!
Hey Hillary, put some ice on that will ya??
yep.
Joe has his moments and the military is one thing he sometimes (Notice I said sometimes) gets right. Other than that it's pure 'stick it to the taxpayer' to fund pet pork projects and the parasites of our society.
I'd sure like to see the GOP come out swinging at Hillary for her latest attack. I think they will.
It would really make my day if one, just one, GOP leader would have the cojones to say that Hillary Clinton is nothing more than a lying, worthless sack of sh!t who should take her little road show down to Cuba and suck the blood out of Castro's beard. |
And take the rapist with her.
Wow...i wasnt aware there are any former plantation slaves living in Harlem nowadays.
Reminds me of her remark regarding the backwardness of the people of Arkansas a few years back!
His true colors only became more pronounced when he joined internet al.
He is no more the conscience of the sinate than sheets byrd.
Been a vedy vedy bad man!
