Hillary just misspoke about who she is, that's all.

I really appreciate and admire Olympia Snowe. She should have been the first major-party female candidate for president.

A financial conservative/pragmatist, a social liberal/realist. A smart as hell lady, a decent human being.

I disagree with her on plenty of stuff, be she deals with the real world, at least, and not some phony ideological abstraction of it.

Interesting. Snowe could have been mentioning this to the press when it first came out, but she didn't.
Wonder why?

She's probably busy actually farking doing work.

FTA: The seven senators flew into the host city of the 1984 Olympics on a military C-130 that, in addition to its senatorial payload, was carrying 20,000 pounds of peas to the starved city.

Maybe she was working with the UN Peas-Keepers.

That's a lot of peaness.

I have voted for her before, and I would whole heartedly support her for a bid for the Presidency. She is a pragmatic gal and has some spine to her.

She's not the sort to toot her own horn all that much. She is a damn hard working gal.

No, seriously, maybe Sen. Snowe should run for POTUS.

I misspeak and confuse my memories with other people all the time. When you're very important you tend to lose focus because you're so busy getting things done.

Like that time I freed the slaves.

And when I impregnated Catherine Zeta Jones.

Hillary's numbers are starting to dive, happily. I think her supporters are starting to get it.

If THIS doesn't do it, I don't know what will. This is absolutely ridiculous.

HILLARY: YOUR CAMPAIGN IS OVER. GIVE UP.

It's a pretty easy mistake to make, if you've been too busy possessing too many people and losing track of yourself.

Not only did Mrs. Clinton lie, she couldn't even come up with an original story.

 
captain_heroic44 2008-03-28 08:08:44 PM  
Why did she think she would get away with this? Didn't she think someone might, you know, alert the press?

So if stealing someone else's words is plagiarism, what do we call stealing someone else's life?

 
I am NaN 2008-03-28 08:09:44 PM  
Yeah, that one could have happened, just not to the 1st lady.

I actually liked her other one from the same week better, the one about how she pulled a meeting together in Belfast and got the peace process started on North Ireland.

It was clearly something she saw on the Hallmark channel and later thought it had happened to her. I have a senile relative that does the same thing.

Didn't you get the memo? Hillary deserves it this time. It is her turn. She has worked towards this point for her entire adult life. We the sheeple are expected to bow down to her will, and coronate her.

No matter who may be better qualified to be POTUS, or who could do a better job as POTUS, or how farked up she would do the job of POTUS, it is her turn!

Great Janitor 2008-03-28 08:13:24 PM  
For me, since she 'misspoke' (which is total bullshiat, the biatch flat out lied thinking that the media would never expose the truth), not only has she lost all credibility, and now every time she speaks I think that she's lying, I've come to the realization that anyone who is supporting her is really just kidding their selves, and really, it only insures that Obama will win the nomination and McCain will win the election.

Not because I think that McCain is clearly the better candidate, but because all the Democratic party put up this year are novelty candidates, not real ones. Given an election for president between a black man, a white woman and a white man, it's going to be the white man hands down.

You're underestimating Obama. You're overestimating McCain.

He's inexperienced. He's made some clumsy mistakes. But he'll get there. Obama will be the Ronald Reagan of the left.

'Misspoke' = politician-ese for 'lied'

Whenever you hear a politician say the word 'misspoke', replace it with 'lied' and you will have deciphered their extremely clever, bamboozling, and uncharacteristic doublespeak.

People keep saying this, and I understand the sentiment. That said, the woman and the black dude ran over plenty of white males to get where they are.

Side note: I find it especially amusing when Republicans say this type of thing. I wonder sometimes if they realize that they're basically saying "sure, those liberals would vote for a woman or a black guy, but us conservatives refuse to vote for anyone who doesn't have a pale peener."

 
Great Janitor 2008-03-28 08:20:01 PM  
What's interesting is given that she completely made up an event that never happened, both McCain and Obama really haven't jumped on it. I guess I owe my girlfriend a drink for properly guessing last month that eventually Hillary was going to shoot her own self in the foot so badly that no one has to do anything other than just watching her death throws and final breath.

Though a mercy killing right about now would be nice...

Clinton has since said that she "misspoke" when she recalled arriving in Tuzla under sniper fire.


Lying sack of shiat.
