Hillary is currently trying to transform the negative word "UNBECOMING" into a positive character trait.

Will Hillary succeed in changing this "Scarlet U" into a "Red Badge of Courage"?

Here are just a few of the many examples of the Clintons' behavior being labelled "unbecoming" in the Press.

High Court Disbars Clinton

"Whenever a member of the bar of this court has been disbarred or suspended from practice of any court of record, or has engaged in conduct unbecoming a member of the bar of this court, the court will enter an order suspending that member from practice before this court," Supreme Court rules say.

Filibustered again: Senate should pass campaign finance bill

While most of the buzz in Washington, D.C., focuses on President Bill Clinton's unbecoming behavior, others on Capitol Hill continue to take care of day-to-day business. Last week, campaign finance reform legislation was once again blocked in the Senate.

Clinton, Netanyahu meeting in the works, By HILLEL KUTTLER

WASHINGTON (November 27) - Netanyahu yesterday criticized as "unbecoming"Clinton's refusal to meet with him during his recent US trip and suggested he was insulted.

"My own view is that leaders should avoid these kinds of tactics," he said in an interview with Cable News Network.

"It's unbecoming, it doesn't befit nations who are allies, and even doesn't befit nations who are not allies.

This article appeared in Reason on November 1998.

Bull Clinton,By Thomas W. Hazlett

America must now decide how egregious an offense it is to turn the White House into Animal House and reach a consensus as to which felonies constitute behavior unbecoming a president. High crime? Misdemeanor? Oh, how masterfully Clinton has set the national agenda in the year of our lord, 1998.

Area reacts to Clinton, By Patrik Jonsson 9/22/98

"Americans are a hell of a lot better off than when the Republicans were running the country," Spirou, a confirmed Friend of Bill, said yesterday. "I'm just wondering, after Clinton admitted to conduct unbecoming to his office, his family and the country, whether political capital punishment should be the order of the day."

ALL PRESENTS WERE ACCOUNTED FOR, SHE SAYSBy BRIAN BLOMQUIST and DEBORAH ORIN Friday,January 26,2001

"It does sound like there were deliberate efforts to circumvent the laws . . . I can't think of a time when a U.S. president and first lady have left in a more undistinguished and unbecoming way," said Chuck Lewis, head of the Center for Public Integrity.

Hillary Clinton in Crisis, by Michelle Malkin (9/26/01)

James Gale of Silver Spring, Md., wrote to The Washington Post: "She at times seemed bored and uninterested, clapping perfunctorily, and at other times she was talking during the speech.[Bush's address to Congress] I thought her actions were unbecoming a senator at this difficult time."

PAT BUCHANAN SLAMS HILLARY

Likely Reform Party presidential nominee Pat Buchanan had some choice words for Hillary Clinton after the First Lady and Rudy Guiliani spoke at a meeting of the New York Independence (Reform) Party. While all three candidates are seeking the party’s nomination in their respective races, Hillary denounced the idea of sharing the same party ticket as Buchanan. In response, Mr. Buchanan said Hillary was unbecoming of a First Lady and added: "Who's she to be setting conditions? She could be indicted in the middle of a campaign. She could embarrass all of us."

Trading Places (GeoInvestor.com), by William P. Kucewicz

Had the Democrats opted to cast off Clinton's unbecoming ethical legacy by rejecting Vice President Al Gore as the party's next standard-bearer in favor of Bill Bradley or some other untainted choice, they might have expected to retain the Oval Office. Voters, pleased with the economy's performance, are wary of rocking the boat.

Clinton drew roaring applause when she said she found Romney's comments ''unbecoming.''

She really is the smartest woman on the planet. Her retort is not at all like a 6-year-old saying, "I'm not a doody-head -- you're a doody-head!"

She has such wit.

If Hillary can change the meaning of the word "unbecoming" she is one step closer to her goal of redeeming Bill's legacy.

This is the face and the voice of the feminist left: always on patrol, looking for anything they can jump and and proclaim themselves "deeply offended", blah, blah, blah.

What a grim, humorless bunch.

US Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton, a New York Democrat, told the crowd that years ago the ambitions of women who wanted to vote or run for public office were described as ''unbecoming.'' Clinton drew roaring applause when she said she found Romney's comments ''unbecoming.''

Hillary Rodham Izetbegovic Khomeini's support for muslim supremacists and terrorist savages all around the globe is MOST UNBECOMING!!!!!

When muslim shill Rodham-clinton was on a junket of islamic countries with witch-in-training Chelsea in 1999, and she called Bill about the Serbs and told him to "bomb the bastards", that was MOST UNBECOMING!!!!

The clintons and all their poobahs of the politically-correct who think that they have the right to twist the language and "morality" to their own ends are MOST UNBECOMING!!!! Remember, it was the New World Order press that twisted Lazio's coming up to Rodham-clinton duing a debate to get her to sign a campaign reform pledge into an "unbecoming attack" on a woman by a man. It is because of tactics like that that we have Sen. Khomeini (D, NY) today!! Now Hillary and her gang are using the same tactics again.

It's time to say "ENOUGH!!!!"

O'Brien Backers Rip Rival Romney

In Mass. Gov. Race, Supporters of Shannon O'Brien Accuse Rival Mitt Romney of Gender-Stereotyping

The Associated Press
— Supporters of Shannon O'Brien, the Democratic candidate for Massachusetts governor, accused Republican opponent Mitt Romney of gender-stereotyping when he called her attacks during a debate "unbecoming."

U.S. Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton led the chorus of condemnation Wednesday at an O'Brien fund-raiser, saying that years ago women who wanted to run for office were called "unbecoming."

Romney, a businessman and former Salt Lake City Olympic chief, used the word Tuesday when O'Brien questioned his promise not to change the state's abortion laws.

"Your effort to continue to try and create fear and deception here is unbecoming," he said.

Teresa Heinz, a philanthropist and wife of US Senator John F. Kerry, told a crowd of some 750 women at an O'Brien fund-raiser yesterday that Romney would be surprised at how many ''unbecoming women'' were gathered for the event at the Fairmont Copley Plaza hotel

This golddigging bitch really makes me sick. John Heinz was a loyal Republican in the Senate, and the Heinz family's roots have been solidly Conservative. Teresa "Heinz" is using her former husbands hundreds of millions to push causes he would never dream of supporting. She is nothing but a left-wing whore. She is disgraceful and revolting.

Well, they managed to make "philanderer", "rapist", "perjurer", "rabid Socialist", "liar", "forgetful", "thief", "hateful", "petty", "tacky" and even "murderer" into positive character traits....but back then she had her Co-Conspirator-in-Chief" and his cigar to help her with that...

Hmmmm...this makes me wonder : so NOW, if an officer is charged with "Conduct unbecoming to..." that means he or she gets a REWARD instead of the BOOT, because Hillary says it's a positive character trait???
