She's not sorry about that comment or anything that might get her into more power. And Blow Job Clinton, I mean Bill J. Clinton, wants to be back in the White House more than anything he can imagine -- and that is a lot.
I put nothing past these two.

Thomas a Becket would like to discuss the potential harm such a statement could cause...

 
BMulligan 2008-05-23 07:37:42 PM  
This was probably not a very smart thing for her to say.

Woman tragically afflicted with foot in mouth disease. More at 11.

Please, please please please let this be the end.

How much you wanna bet she goes for the nuclear option and strong arms the DNC into seating the Florida and Michigan delegates?

 
Edsel 2008-05-23 07:38:15 PM  
Holy shiat -- hopefully this ignites a shiatstorm that forces her out. I simply cannot believe the gall of this woman.

Gosh, y'think?

Hillary knows all about sniper fire...

That's why he's choosing a Mexican Vice-President. It's called 'Presidential Insurance'.

WOW

 
Testiclaw 2008-05-23 07:38:51 PM  
Obama should do a speech about being shot at while on the campaign trail, and recall running and ducking from fire while making is way from poll to poll.

And then finish with, "Actually, that only happened in Hillary's mind, and in her version I bit it. Sadly, she is mistaken on yet another point."

 
1000Monkeys 2008-05-23 07:38:54 PM  
Wow, the headline was serious?

Then again I guess she doesn't really have anything to lose at this point.

 
Weasel3322 2008-05-23 07:39:05 PM  
wow the Clinton machine has been grasping for straws all week. earlier highlights include Bill pulling the "it's because she's a woman" card and the "the media hates us and loves Obama" card. They really have no shame now do they

Good night Hillary and don't let the door hit your a$$ on the way out.

Good riddance to bad trash.

 
Squirrel Nutkin 2008-05-23 07:39:31 PM  
Stay classy Clinton family.

 
charmlessman 2008-05-23 07:39:32 PM  
I get what she was going for, and she genuinely made a verbal gaffe. However, she needs to step aside. If she keeps going like this, she's going to keep making these weird missteps until she's some kind of unwelcome guest in America. It's Obama's time, Hill, step aside.

 
pooperator 2008-05-23 07:39:34 PM  
ENOUGH OF THESE FARKING THREADS BEING GREENLIT ALREADY!

 
BMulligan 2008-05-23 07:39:35 PM  
Also, this was probably not a very good week to say it.

McStinky 2008-05-23 07:39:44 PM  
It certainly wasn't contextual in the conversation she had. Like she burped 'assassination' or something.

Burp - assassination
Burp - Wright
Burp - White vote

Oh, 'scuse me, I had some West Virginia pork yesterday. White pork.

I love it. First Huckabee saying Obama is running from someone point a gun at him and now this... I say statistically, if he manages to win, he has the highest chance of being a target. Hellacious forshadow.

 
TeddyRooseveltsMustache [TotalFark] 2008-05-23 07:40:12 PM  
I'd say that's a wrap for her campaign. The Kennedy family won't be too happy that she said that. They've actually probably got wind of it by now. That's shameful what she said about a member of America's Royal family. If she keeps going and actually by some crazy, and stupid turn of events gets the nomination after making an ass of herself like this, then all of my faith in America will be completely gone, and I will have no choice but to leave.

Is that it? That's what you HAVE?

You say BJ like it is a bad thing.

 
TheGreatZarquon 2008-05-23 07:40:22 PM  
I still say that Obama and Hillary should compete for the Democratic nomination in The Thunderdome.

Someone Foster to say that.

 
TheQuad 2008-05-23 07:41:28 PM  
This is my total lack of surprise...

 
Lawnchair 2008-05-23 07:41:42 PM  
Yep. Stirring the spectre of convention walkouts and invoking RFKs assassination... someone thinks it's still 1968... and Hillary is Nixon's love-child.

 
Jeffrey.Rodriguez 2008-05-23 07:41:48 PM  
Am I the only one to think "So..?" I listened to the "news" on NPR earlier it went something like this:

Hillary said Obama might die and she might win by default, so she's staying in.
Obabma's camp said that was a mean thing to say.
Hillary's camp said yeah, that was kinda mean she's sorry.


What the fark? Grow a thicker skin you pandering, apologetic, sissy biatches.

 
Mnemia 2008-05-23 07:41:56 PM  
She's an absolute monster. Samantha Power was right. Thank goodness that this woman isn't going to be our next president.

Notice that Hillary didn't apologize to Obama directly for this statement. I don't buy her explanation for a second. The mere fact that she brought that up means she was thinking about Obama being assassinated. It was a Freudian slip, or worse.

 
Trance750 [TotalFark] 2008-05-23 07:41:58 PM  
Stay classy, Clintons.

 
charmlessman 2008-05-23 07:42:13 PM  
pooperator, yeah, because greenlighting stories about major issues in the election cycle of the most powerful nation on earth is just a waste of time, right?

/sarcasm

Neurochemist: I love it. First Huckabee saying Obama is running from someone point a gun at him and now this... I say statistically, if he manages to win, he has the highest chance of being a target. Hellacious forshadow.

It's almost as if some people are uncomfortable about the prospect of a differently complected president...

 
andrewagill 2008-05-23 07:42:26 PM  
So apparently, her rationale for staying in the race is that Obama might die.

And then at the convention, they'd nominate... uh, John Edwards?

 
firefly212 2008-05-23 07:42:40 PM  
Ya know, the shiat of it is... if he got assassinated, she'd be at the top of every conspiracy theory as to who paid for the assassin.

 
cabal08 2008-05-23 07:42:46 PM  
This may knock her down a peg or two on Obama's "who shall I pick as a running mate" list.

 
terriblist 2008-05-23 07:43:12 PM  
She's not "in the running," Subby, although she is technically still "running."

 
shaggenstein 2008-05-23 07:43:15 PM  
This is not even the first time she has said this. Also in her apology she only mentions the Kennedy family, not Obama. People aren't pissed about this because of bringing up RFK while his brother is dealing with a brain tumor. It is kinda fun though watching her dig her own hole. Stay classy Hillary.

 
pooperator 2008-05-23 07:43:23 PM  
BMulligan: This was probably not a very smart thing for her to say.

Tell me ONE person who has not thought this - including Obama.

If you haven't, then you have been fully assimilated and are currently pooping rainbows.

It is OPEN SEASON to blog it and say it out loud about McSame, but Allah Forbid we say anything against Obama ...
