Hillary Hates Obama

Team Hillary doesn’t think Obama is qualified. But surely that’s the pot calling the kettle…nevermind. My point is, if sleeping with Bill Clinton qualified one to be president, this would be a very crowded race.

Mickey Kraus/Slate: Hillary’s people “despise Obama,” reports David Corn in a fine piece of schmoozalism. They “don’t need any prompting in private conversations to decry Obama as a dishonest poser.” Hillary has (not uncleverly) asked, “”"How did running for president become a qualification for being president?” … Is this just because Obama’s presumptuous enough to deny her rightful nomination?

Or is there another root-cause complaint that the citizens of Hillaryland can’t voice because even though it’s true it wouldn’t help them: that Obama’s an affirmative action baby who’s been promoted faster than his merits would ordinarily permit? If he weren’t black he’d be Dick Durbin! (Or a more appealing but less experienced version of Dick Durbin) … That Hillary’s cadres can’t voice or even permit themselves to think about thinking this thought, of course, might tend to make them even madder. …

P.S: Of course, Hillary is not an affirmative action baby. She got her position the old fashioned way–by marrying it. … 1:32 P.M.

    This is great…watching dems implode with Hillary lighting the fuse.

    Lefthook,
    David Corn said that someone not affiliated with the Clinton campaign made the statement so we don’t know if it’s just rumor or what.

    bb,
    LOL! Wishful thinking! Still trying to expand that 26% to 30% is hard work I guess!

  3. bb says:

    If she hates Obama, wonder how she feels about Monica, Kathleen, Juanita and Paula, all of whom have more knowledge of her husband’s sexual prowess than she ever will!

    LeftHook,

    Why do you dismiss Sen. Clinton’s experience with the sexist and frankly ridicules comment “if sleeping with Bill Clinton qualified one to be president, this would be a very crowded race.” ?

    Have you ever looked at her professional CV? See if you can find it and do a search for, oh, “Watergate” or something like that, OK?

    bb,
    Thanks for reminding us how the GOP stands for Grand Old Peeping toms! What is it with you guys and your desire to snoop in other people’s bedrooms? No wonder you guys give the majority of women the creeps.

  6. LeftHook says:

    DOR: I obviously disagree that my joke is sexist. I’ll leave it to you to conjure an explain how to how it is.

    But the point of the joke is nepotism. To quote Ms Dowd, “Without nepotism, Hillary would be running for the president of Vassar. But then, without nepotism, W. would be pumping gas in Midland — and not out of the ground.”

    Working on Watergate as one of many House Judiciary Committee lawyers is great, and watching her husband preside is great. But are you really going to make the case that without Bill she’s a senator or viable presidential candidate? Or that W was without Poppy?

    Why do you trust Hillary?

  8. Bill says:

    …And yet some are hoping she’ll limp to victory in the primary. BBBWWWAHAHAHHAHAHAAHAHAAAA!!!!!

  9. David O'Rear says:

    Sexist bit: if sleeping with Bill Clinton qualified one to be president

    We don’t know what she would have done if she hadn’t married Bill. After Watergate, she might well have run for office. But, according to the “she’s nothing but an ex-First Lady” line of thought, her brain stopped functioning once Tricky Dick was sent packing.

    = = = = =

    Mr Konop,

    Why don’t you trust Sen. Clinton? Seriously, I’ve never heard a straight answer, just slander about her husband and rediculous blame for Dubious’ War of Aggression.

  10. JohnKonop says:

    David

    It is also Hillary’s war!

  11. caroline says:

    John,
    Here’s something you don’t realize:
    Just because you defend someone doesn’t mean that you trust them. I’ve told you before that trust has to be earned. I still don’t understand why the GOP has this naive trusting attitude after they’ve been royall screwed over trusting Bush.

  12. caroline says:

    and rhetoric from people like bb are driving people away from the GOP in droves. I keep thanking him for his help and telling him to keep up the good work!

  13. LeftHook says:

    DOR: Regarding the joke.

    Is it your contention that I wouldn’t make the same joke if the roles were reversed, and a philandering Hillary had been president for two terms and now her under-experienced husband was running?

    Or do you think that a joke about a woman is, by definition, sexist?

  14. bb says:

    caroline,

    rhetoric from bb drives away GOPers…hmmm— if seeking tax reform, lower spending and tough response to terrorism drives away ‘GOPers’, then they never were GOPers to begin with…hasta luego and don’t let the door hit you where the good lord split you!

  15. caroline says:

    bb,
    Do you think there’s are reason that the majority of people who voted for Bush in 2004 now have voter’s remorse?

    tax reform? Translation-cutting checks to cronies
    lower spending? RTFLMAO!
    terrorism? LOL! Republicans don’t even know who attacked us in 2001. Falsified information on both Iran and Iraq? Letting Osama run free? Yeah, only in bizzarro conservaworld does that make sense.
