The Clinton Thread

[The Senator]

That's not quite true. I watched that campaign very closely, and he did try real hard to laugh it off and act like a good sport about it.

But he also addressed it seriously on several occasions.

But he also addressed it seriously on several occasions.

I do remember one incident where he was serious and said he was trying to pump up the crowd, as if they needed any pumping, they looked like they were on aderol, but that wasn't a bad move on his part. He laughed about it, and offered an explanation. Both should have been acceptable.

 

[Spider-Bite]

Great, social discourse in America and my faith in humanity in general are both
taking a plunge.

This guy is like Britney Spears in 2002, a talentless hack who makes up for it by having a great PR machine, that is why he is popular, not because he brings anything useful to the table. He is nothing more than political jock shock, you might as take political advice from Howard Stern.

i disagree with him, but he is talented. He's clearly good at what he does, which is attract viewers, fire people up, and present a biased view with a confident tone of voice presenting the illusion of intelligence. He's got the same PR machine and producers as all the other fox shows which dont' attract those ratings.

Personally I thought Hillary kicked his ass in the interview, and I thought it was inmature for liberal bloggers to criticize her for going on the show. why hide from conservatives on other stations? Why not confront them face to face?

 

[Spider-Bite]

I'm afraid she may go ahead with his announced plan to liberate Cuba using military force if they did not make a democratic reform by 2010. I don't think the world wants to see another illegal war in the name of freeing an oppressed people from their government.

it depends. she still needs congress to giveher the go ahead, who might out of a desire to stand by their president, but I don't think she would be able to command the same kind of loyalty from her party that bush had a few years back. There are such a huge number of liberals who hate her, that if she were to become President, I could see her being challenged for the nomination in 2012, or get hit with a 3rd party candidate, or have congress simply not bow to her every command.

I guess you didn't see the video of acting like a raving psycho for no reason on Inside Edition some odd years ago. The man has mental problems.

Hillary waved the white flag today. She admitted she will not be the nominee, but said there is no harm in finishing the contests. She's positioning herself to be VP or a second run in 2012.

When did this happen?

I just watched it on fox news five minutes ago.

 

[The Senator]

She's still claiming she's won more votes.

She's going to have a hard time accepting that she isn't the nominee come August. If this is any indication, she'll probably continue to campaign, thinking she's the party's nominee.

 

[SentinelMind]

I don't think Hillary is stupid. Just because she ACTS like she is the nominee, doesn't mean she believes she's convinced everyone else.....she just has a strong, disciplined mind. Part of persuading other is acting likes it obvious you're right. From her standpoint, she has nothing to lose. It's the party that has to fight her to prove she's wrong.

It is a good strategy, but the one thing she fails to see is that most of the party sees through her shtick. The only way she wins the popular vote is if you discount caucus states and include Florida and Michigan. She's making her own rules at this point, and she becomes less and less credible with every outrageous claim she makes.

So she's definitely acting like the nominee, and she certainly has a strong, disciplined mind. But her problem is, she doesn't live in reality. She can't become the Democratic nominee if she's losing on all fronts... even if she claims she's winning...

 

[Marx]

It's only a matter of time now before Obama is confirmed as the nominee. Hillary cannot continue to make up the rules as she sees fit. As undemocratic and ridiculous as they may be, caucuses are a part of our voting system. (Hopefully that will change.) But for right now we have to work with what we have.

The following five quotations are from Alec Flegon's Dictionary of English Sex Quotations (London: Flegon Press, 1996):

* L.D. Brown, a member of Clinton's former security staff and bodyguard in Arkansas, stated that Hillary is "as foul-mouthed as any sailor you'd ever meet." (p. 147)

As reported by Bill's security staff, Hillary frequently erupted in expletive-filled tirades against him. "I can't believe you would ask a ****ing question like that!" Or, about his shaky driving, "You're gonna get us ****ing killed!" (p. 147)

She shouted at Bill over his unfaithfulness: "I need to be ****ed more than twice a year!" (p. 170)

Hillary to Larry Patterson, an Arkansas state trooper and Clinton bodyguard from 1986 to 1993, who was bringing a judge's wife to the Little Rock airport: "What the **** do you think you're doing? I know who that ****e is." (p. 171)

Coming out of the Arkansas governor's mansion early morning on Labor Day 1991, Hillary screamed: "Where is the goddamn ****ing flag? I want the goddamn ****ing flag up every ****ing morning at ****ing sunrise!" (p. 173).

If she disagreed with Bill Clinton or she disagreed with some of the Jewish community in Little Rock -- or some of the ethnic community -- she would often make these statements." "She would say 'Jew Bastard' or call her husband a 'Jew boy' or a 'mother****ing Jew'," Patterson told the WABC New York radio audience. [Carl Limbacher and NewsMax Staff, 17 July 2000]

Larry Patterson confirmed that he frequently heard Bill Clinton use "n*****" to refer to both Jesse Jackson and local Little Rock black leader Robert "Say" McIntosh. Longtime Clinton paramour Dolly Kyle Browning corroborated Patterson on Clinton's use of "n*****." "Not only did he use the 'N' word, he called him a 'GDN' [goddamn n*****], if you catch my drift," Browning told Fox News in 1999. [NewsMax, 17 July 2000] Brown also told NewsMax that the president would regularly make derogatory comments about African-Americans in private. "He has used the 'N' word before. Bill would make snide remarks about blacks behind their backs." [Carl Limbacher and NewsMax Staff, 17 July 2000]

Patterson said Hillary was no stranger to the "N" word either. He heard her say "n*****" "probably six, eight, ten times. She would be upset with someone in the black community and she would use the 'N' word, like, you heard they've got the president's brother on tape using the 'N' word." [NewsMax, 17 July 2000]

Had Kieth Olbermann on in the background while I was doing other things, but I heard him mention Clinton today compared her effort to seat the delegates in Michigan and Florida to that of freeing the slaves. Please tell me I just heard this completely out of context.

Nope, that's what she said. I have a link to the article above.

Oh for God's sake, someone put this dog to sleep.

 

[Lightning Strykez!]

I just saw the news. Now she's comparing the Michigan/Florida thing to Bush/Goregate from 2000. Talk about fear-mongering and deliberately raising an inner-party backlash!

This woman is officially OUT. OF. CONTROL.

I think she is funny. But I want Obama to lose in November...so maybe that is why.

I must have missed the news where Florida broke the rules and bumped up their election day in 2000.

 

[souvlaki]

Last week Bill Clinton said seating only half the delegates in Florida and Michigan was a fair compromise. Anyone want to make bets his wife wont accept anything less then them being counted in full, and completely contradict her husband?
