Jack and Jill Politics: NO "DE FACTO" THIRD TERM FOR THE CLINTONS

  • andyfrombrooklyn · 1 year ago
    rabid cow, yup that about it! i just heard msnbc john harwood saying he can't believe that she ment what she said. good grief. what would it take for them to acknowledje how nasty she is?
  • justice58 · 1 year ago
    Eugene Robinson on "Race For The White House" spoke up and called Hillary's comment reprehensible!


    She is hoping Obama will be assassinated so that she can immediately become the nominee! That dirty vile bitch!



    (Guys, I apologize for my words, but I'm angry about this sh%t)
  • rikyrah · 1 year ago
    I'll say it again, because it's the only way I can express it:


    FUCK THIS BITCH.



    HELL NO TO HER



    and ANYONE, especially, ANYONE BLACK, defending her on this..



    Needs to be thrown out PERIOD.
  • Kenya W · 1 year ago
    me thinks Rikyrah is angry.


    umm is this worst than SBO's "typical" comment??

    This thing is going to get uglier before it gets better guys.

    And the sad part is that the superdelegates could end this today.

    She has the right to run surely, but they have an obligation to choose a candidate and stop sitting on there hands. It is a slap in the face to the candidate with the most delegates.

    And to think that the entire world is watching this election.(shaking my head)

    The UN does not want any of this... If they really took a look at the double standards in sports, the media, the judicial system, employment discrimination, they would be appalled at SOME in our country.

    Michelle Obama was just keeping it real, when she made her comment.

    This is quite something:


    "Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who has endorsed Mrs. Clinton, defended her remarks in a telephone interview Friday evening. “I’ve heard her make that argument before,” Mr. Kennedy said, speaking on his cell phone as he drove to the family compound in Hyannis for the holiday weekend. “It sounds like she was invoking a familiar historical circumstance in support of her argument for continuing her campaign.”"

    Well, she got what she wanted. She is front and center of all the news reports despite McCain releasing his medical records and Cindy's tax returns. On a holiday weekend, Americans will be talking and blogging about Hillary Clinton, the non-contender in the race.


    For the last few days, she's been virtually ignored by the press and the Obama camp...not this weekend.



    I sometimes wonder if the Obama campaign has the undeclared SD's locked up, but is announcing them slowly as part of a strategy. If this is the case, nothing she's done thus far has compelled him to deviate from his course. I don't know if this will. Obama has nerves of steel.



    On Lou Dobbs(retch)...the guy who sits in the middle (Michael Goodwin?) was surprisingly sober about this. He said it was "vile" and "revealing" and kept stressing she was answering a question of why she stayed in the race. He said her answer was two parts 1) Bill didn't win the nom. until June and 2)Kennedy was assasinated in June.

    These are the comments I left and the DNC website:


    This is addressed to Howard Dean.



    Sir:



    I am sure you have heard and seen reports of Senator Hillary Clinton's remarks concerning her staying in the Democratic Presidential race and the assassination of Robert F. Kennedy.



    I am curious.



    What does it take to bring this sorry spectacle to an end?



    The dog-whistling and race-baiting by the Hillary Clinton campaign didn't do it.



    Maybe her discussing the assassination of Barack Obama will be enough to start the endgame.



    The sitting on the sidelines is over.



    It is time to end this.



    Thank you for your time in reading these comments.

    Olbermann is really getting this out...


    what animal looks for and waits for death...a vulture...



    Hillary has cast her self as Goldilocks, Rambo, Rocky and now she's made herself into a vulture.
  • justice58 · 1 year ago
    Not only does Hillary need to get out of the race but she needs to get out of the Party!


    She's unfit to serve as a senator or any leader in the Democratic Party!
  • TruthSeeker · 1 year ago
    angela,


    what animal looks for and waits for death...a vulture...



    My, how the mighty have fallen! If this is what the mighty Clinton is reduced to....if her opponent must die for her to win, then we know it is truly OVER for her. I'm starting to believe The Field that Obama said "No" to the VP request..why else would she again invoke assassination?



    Craig,



    I saw that. It will be an interesting weekend at the Kennedy's...LOL!
  • smoothie · 1 year ago
    Truthseeker,
    you couldnt have put it better..McCain must be doing cart-wheels right now...He could have multiple injuries, his wife could have tax issues for God knows how long and none of matters b/c at this very moment Hillary went and dropped the assasination card..



    FUCK THIS BITCH!!!





    Senator Ted Kennedy sits at home literally in his death bed with an inoperable tumor and he has to turn the TV on to hear this???



    FUCK THIS BITCH!!!



    The most recognizable African American since MARTIN LUTHER KING JR. is running for President and she drops a Huckabee hick ass redneck of a statement...



    FUCK THIS BITCH!!



    I have been all over the internets(thanks dubya) and even those loyal to her cant even try to support this... Taylor Marsh and My dd have there comments turned off....



    Hell maybe this was her way of unifying the party, and sticking it to her husband for him getting BJ's ..MAKE EVERYBODY HATE ME, and ruin his legacy.



    Either way FUCK THIS BITCH!!



    I now issue this open letter to whomever plans run against this bitch in either 2010 or 2012.



    I will activly campaign for you. Expect a 1000.00 check from me the moment your campaign starts. End her and her kaniving,(sic) covertly racist , and underhanded husbands legacy now.



    I hope the Superdelegates sitting on the fence realize that YOU ARE THE REASON ALL OF THIS IS HAPPENING..Rather then back the canidate whos the outright presumptive nominee you sit there...Waiting for everyone to "have there voice heard" Congratufuckinlations, you just saw the party lose it all in one incredible and awful soudnbyte...



    Oh and Sheila Jackson Sellout..I will stump the streets of H-town, my hometown to gut you out of that seat if its the last thing I do. You and Stephanie Tubbs Sambo turned your back on your districs who went overwhelmingly for for Barack...esp you Jackson Lee (90-10)

    Clinton Family Surrogates et al,

    FOAD....
  • TruthSeeker · 1 year ago
    Hey, smoothie:)


    ....as for my laughing out loud, no disrespect intended to what the Kennedy's are going through. I can't see them overly pleased with Robert Jr's rationalization. But them, maybe they have more weighty things on their minds.

    Keith Olbermann just smacked her down.

    Yes, Olbermann was heated to night, I felt the emotion behind that. I was shaking.

    Why is Olbermann the only dude that just slams it?
  • golden star · 1 year ago
    For the first time, I could not watch the tv while Keith delivered his Special Comment. I listened. It was just too emotional and raw.


    She is way way way over the top. She gots to go.
  • andyfrombrooklyn · 1 year ago
    she is fascinating from a psychological point of view. meaning there is a lot to work with. her lies, slanders, and denials are so tantalising. what is she really thinking? what is it all about? i would love to witness her in therapy.

    ::



    She's a textbook sociopath.



    And by Monday, she'll be painting herself as a victim of slander by all of Obama's people and she'll be a martyr to the blind who support her demagoguery and if she's rejected in her quest to the Oval Office, it will give her all the more reason to sabotage Obama and run with McCain or as an Independent. She'll easily find 70,000 people to put her on the ballot in Michigan, Florida, Ohio, and Pennsylvania, California and New York.



    Enough white women, old and young, will vote for her and McCain will win.
  • Craig Hickman · 1 year ago
    We ain't seen nothing yet.
  • Anonymous · 1 year ago
    She is obviously mentally ill and needs help and resigning her seat as no one will ever take her serious now. She has lost any sense of decency at this point in time.
    Even Tubbs-Jones and the other nitwits of the CBC praying for her can't help her fragile mental state now. And, she probably got this disturbing idea from Ickes or Ferrerro.



    Its pitiful that she had to go out like this, just pitiful and she is going to snap and end up in the nut house as if she were Joan Crawford in one of her crazy roles.
  • Kris · 1 year ago
    Unbelievable!


    This reminds me of my college days, when the Kappa "bruhs" tried to get me to join the pledge line of their fraternity.



    "You mean to tell me that I'm supposed to let you kick my ass EVERY night, get hollered at EVERY day, get humiliated in front of my classmates whenever you feel like it, and then, when I cross over, magically embrace you as my brother? Sheeeit!



    The more I look at Hillary's face on the news, the more I see Bette Davis - from the snarl of her lips to the way she cuts her eyes, she has Davis's signature moves down pat. This woman doesn't need to win the nomination, she needs to win an Oscar - 'cause she sure is acting like a Class A beeyatch!



    The saddest thing about this is she isn't alone - there are LOTS of people whose blood pressure is off the charts now that they have to seriously consider voting for a brown skinned man for president.



    The fall is going to be hell. Be ready for the hoses! The dogs won't be far behind!

    Let the DNC know that at this point Hillary is making the DNC look bad...if the DNC doesn't act and push her out now then one has to wonder about their effectiveness.


    There must be consequences for this for Hillary, and at this point it can only be pulling the plug on her candidacy.



    Obama is worthy of our support; we'll see if the DNC is.
  • smoothie · 1 year ago
    I think the real question now is, if youre supproting her at this very moment what possibly could be the reason?


    What evidence has she provided you that she's wotth fighting for?



    I actually am rooting for her to screw up more.



    Keep making it more abundently clear that you were nothing more then a woman scorned who thought you could flip infidelity into a presidency..
  • Town · 1 year ago
    Craig,




    That's really sad. What's even sadder is Hillary has NOBODY around her that loves her enough to tell her to stop.



    I suppose we'll see Geraldine Ferraro on TV saying how this controversy was blown up by the black journalists and that it's all Obama's fault.

    n.mahana and smoothie,


    I told my mate months ago that the scene in the White House bedroom after the Lewinsky humiliation looked a bit like this:



    Bill on his knees, red-faced and blathering, pulls on his hair. Hillary sits in front of a mirror wiping of her makeup.



    "What can I do, Hillary? Tell me, what can I do? I'll do anything, just tell me!!"



    Hillary pivots to him, 1950s B-movie style, her eyes shrink to slits, and she barks, "Make. Me. A President."
  • andyfrombrooklyn · 1 year ago
    craig hickman, if you are right and she is a sociopath...the final act is only begining.
    i keep hoping she will recognise the risk to her legacy if she out naders nader.

    that said, the sociopath theory is rather worrisome.

    we will be praying for her enablers to stop enabling.

    sadly, as with bush and nixon, millions of americans like this type.

    @craig and n.mahana,


    sadly Chris Matthews pointed this out one day and got the hell and fury that was the Clinton Campaign..



    I mean, not to get all investigative but what honestly gave her the right to assume she was the "frontrunner"..



    HER ENTIRE CAMPAIGN IS BASED ON A BLOWJOB. Bill doesnt get brain in the oval office, and we never hear from this cyborg of a succubus ever again...



    HER CAMPAGIN SLOGAN SHOULDVE BEEN, VOTE FOR ME, I let my husband screw around more then a drill bit with a lose fitting...And I kept fighting...



    GTFOH....At her best, Ida gave her a chance to oneday be a helluva Attorney GENERAL. Now, she can go over to Fox and take on a role similar to Pat Buchanons over at MSNBC..



    President Clinton,

    I put this own you You created this nightmare 20+ yrs ago when you were out there getting BJ'S and scrwewing around with Gennifer Flowers..



    Go home, apologize for being THE WORST, HUSBAND IN THE WORLD, and then look her square in the eye say this



    "Babe, its time to go home."
  • N. Mahana · 1 year ago
    @ Smoothie and Craig


    ...and the congregation says AMEN!



    All this experience is one day about all her husband did during his term as President.



    Then, the next is her years in the Senate, which isn't much more than Senator Obama's.



    So what exactly is Hillary Clinton's basis for becoming the President of the most powerful country in the world?



    Well it's what you've said, Smoothie and that's all it is.



    "I am a woman who rose above my philandering husband. I suffered a public embarrassment beyond anything imaginable and therefore I deserve to be compensated."



    Well Mrs. Clinton, it is not the American people who owe you for tolerating your husband's infidelity. It is he that owes you.



    My people, my family and I will not pay for Bill Clinton's sins.



    I'm out y'all I just can't bear to read anymore tonight. Have a safe Holiday weekend.

    Olbermann's "Special Comment" was so blistering, my eyebrows were singed.


    All I want to hear from Hillary is "I am hereby suspending my campaign and throwing my support to Senator Obama..."
  • rikyrah · 1 year ago
    Olbermann was definitely on point.


    Add me to the chorus who have said from the beginning, that she thought she was ENTITLED TO BE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA because she let that man publicly humiliate her.



    I have always said ' I don't think so' to that rationale.
  • The Christian Progressive Libe · 1 year ago
    If that's the case, every woman who's ever been cheated on by her man should be in every facet of the United States Government, if Hillary's humiliation entitled her to the White House.


    Not only is the road to hell paved with good intentions, it got paved by entitlements as well.
  • nyc/caribbean ragazza · 1 year ago
    The DNC will not pressure her because they waited too long. Now even if she "gracefully" leaves, her supporters will scream sexism. She has poisoned the well so deeply nobody can drink from it now.


    I don't know how any one can support her with these statements. We are not blowing things out of proportion. She is not misspeaking. This is how she feels and such a person should not be in the U.S. Senate and def. not president.
  • justice58 · 1 year ago

    I think it's safe to tell Harold Ford, Jr., that Obama doesn't need his advice; he's doing quite well on his own.


    Just like Hillary, if Harold's looking for a gig in the Obama Administration, talking down to the man won't get him dog catcher, which is all Harold's qualified for, anyway.
  • Kate · 1 year ago
    I share your outrage at this latest comment, as well as the way Clinton has run her campaign overall.


    However, every time you call her a bitch, witch, cow, or heifer, it feels like a slap in the face to me, because those words are only used for troublesome women. How can you be so astute at calling her out on dog whistle politics and not be bothered by your own use of dehumanizing language?
