I can't imagine what 'wisdom' the regal one might wish to impart upon us dullards.Have the right bloodline?

Doubtful but perhaps she might have some words on how to ride a husband's career into power.

The nut wanted to talk to Hillary, so naturally he expected to deal with CNN--the Clinton News Network.

FNC's Carl Cameron during one of the broadcasts got a bit tongue-tied and talked about "the families of the hostage-takers" when he meant "the families of the hostages."

“a regal-looking Hillary Rodham Clinton strolled out of her Washington home, the picture of calm in the face of crisis.”

The AP press does not either worship Hillary Clinton.

They are just extremely fond of the ground on which she walks.

As opposed to her sputtering indecisiveness when asked if she supported drivers licenses for illegal aliens in NY state. Nothing like reporting a rehearsed, stage managed appearance in the time of ‘crisis’ for the newswhores.

Which reminds me, last month we had a fire down the street from us, right at the end of the cul-de-sac, I am proud to stay that I remained calm. I can now run for president :-).

I think that was the face of indifference to the “little people”.

so, how much do you suppose he earns for turning tricks like this?

Are you referring to the hostage taker or the author of this piece of Hurlery Hype?

When the hostages had been released and their alleged captor arrested, a regal-looking Hillary Rodham Clinton strolled out of her Washington home, the picture of calm in the face of crisis.

Easy to do when you're HOW MANY MILES AWAY from the action?

LOL......she is some kind of BS trash ain’t she........;O)

I think even some real old blue dog democrats (both of em) vs the seditious socialists (the rest of em) infesting that party are sick of her crap......

Best thing we can hope for is that she gets lots of free publicity and lots of press because every time she opens her yap we win points.

Let her self destruct.....

Someone on Hannity’s site wrote that it looked like a setup to either make H look good or garner sympathy for her - which actually had crossed my mind, since NOTHING happens around her that is not perfectly scripted -

The writer was considered by others to be either paranoid or just a little imaginative but the thought did cross my mind too.

I would put nothing past her. If it’s evil and obviously scripted, she is probably behind it.

“It affected me not only because they were my staff members and volunteers, but as a mother, it was just a horrible sense of bewilderment, confusion, outrage, frustration, anger, everything at the same time,” Clinton said.

I really love the “as a mother” bit.

Amazing humanity, this candidate. She’s really just like you and me. No, really.

When the hostages had been released and their alleged captor arrested, a regal-looking Hillary Rodham Clinton strolled out of her Washington home, the picture of calm in the face of crisis. The image, broadcast just as the network news began, conveyed the message a thousand town hall meetings and campaign commercials strive for — namely, that the Democratic presidential contender can face disorder in a most orderly manner.

this language is sexist. can anyone imagine this kind of language being using about a MALE? she didn't CRY! isn't it AMAZING???

wait this is how it would go for a male...lordy, lordy, he's CALM! he's walking like a KING! he doesn't FREAK in the face of a crisis! he didn't run screaming down the driveway!

SEXISTS!

From Rush yesterday:



RUSH:..."This election is shaping up to be, if you listen to the way Mrs. Clinton is running things and portraying herself -- and you don't even have to read between the lines on this -- she's running a competence election." The whole point -- the Democrat focus with the Drive-Bys -- for the past how many months and years has been that Bush is incompetent. Katrina, the fires out in California, whatever it is, Bush is incompetent. Mrs. Clinton is running around saying, "I'm competent. I'm experienced. I'm this." Obama is trying to do the same thing. Okay, so the Democrats are doing what? They're running a competence election. Do we want to play on that field? Do we want to let them set the premise? Do we want to run a competence election? No! We want to run an election based on the future of the country: what it's going to look like if they win; what it will look like if we win.

We want to run on the vision of the greatness of America and American exceptionalism. We want to run on an inspiring message, not a message of fear!

A Golden Opportunity for the GOP

Agree....there are folks that would love to bitch slap her hourly , 7 days a week for a year I am sure.......she ain’t worth going to jail for IMO. Kind of like as soon as Rats took congress we started seeing all the school shootings being used to promote gun racism ! Black guns are evil etc ! There’s no connection there at all I am sure.

Just as there are no connections regarding this incident and her safety.......

As I stated above let her self destruct. She’s doing a better job at killing her party than real conservatives ever could........

First of all, the AP reporter should be fired on the spot for writing such drivel. Most disgusting thing I've seen from the MSM in quite some time. ...possibly ever.

Secondly, some guy with a couple of flares who'd already been neutralized isn't even a remotely a crisis situation, so remaining calm isn't exactly a trick.

Leeland Eisenberg ... walked into the office, demanding to speak to Clinton and complaining about inadequate access to mental care.

It was risky of him to walk in and ask for a referral in person, after all. He should have just called or sent an email if he wanted to know which doctor she goes to.
