hillary scary face

When Hillary Clinton delivered her campaign relaunch speech I was in a situation where there was no TV in the room. Even so, the event happened.

Hillary invoked a Beatles tune to slam Republicans about being stuck in yesterday. She evidently missed the irony when she proceeded to wrap herself in the 1930’s New Deal era.

Most of the speech was boilerplate Liberal blather that hasn’t changed since the 1930’s. However, on a contemporary note, Hillary boasted she stood up to Putin. I wondered in what room that happened. I couldn’t remember anything to warrant such a claim during her tenure as Secretary of State. Perhaps she’s referring to a post-SOS kerfuffle last year when she compared Putin to Hitler and then Putin made a crack about her being a woman. Whoa! Damn the torpedoes! We shall fight on the beaches!

She made an oblique reference to her age by noting she would be the youngest woman president. Ha ha! Get it? She may be an older candidate but there haven’t been any women presidents. I think it would have been funnier, at least more consistent, if she said something like, “You’ll love me when I’m 68”.

Well, we’re not going to get much in the way of humor from her. She is stale, brittle and boring. Hillary has been around too long to be interesting. Surely the Republicans won’t flub this one. Or will it be the same old same old from them too?

    And she nailed the YouTube movie maker like she told the grieving parents she would.

    Hillary clinton in one word, “Pathetic.”

    Republican establishment will be the same old. Jeb as Chairman of the Constitution Center gave Hillary the Liberty Medal award on Sept. 10, 2013 (1 year minus 1 day after Benghazi) for her contributions in the spirit of the Constitution (that is a puzzler). National Constitution Center was created by law signed by Reagan to celebrate the 200th anniversary of the Constitution. Past awardees have included Jimmy Carter, Bill Clinton, and G.H.W. Bush. Any recent President missing? Previous Chairman were Bush41, then Bubba, now Jeb. Funny how the National Constitution Center signed into being by Reagan for we the 100% seems like a private 1% honor to be passed from Bush to Clinton and back. What’s the bet that if Hillary loses, she’ll be the next Chairman. It seems that Rush was right. Hillary and Jeb should have joined up to run together. Now, they’re both sputtering.

    The re-launch sounded like soooo much fun. Not. A letter was sent out to all participants, telling them to expect “airport security” — no food allowed, bring your own water, (but in clear bottles), no chairs would be provided.

    I don’t know where you dug up that pic of Hillary, Pat S, but I am definitely going to have a nightmare tonight…

    Thanks, Pat_S, for suffering through this for us. I had to turn it off it was so embarrassing.

    This is reminiscent of a younger Bill Clinton debating GHW Bush in 1992. The unchallenged Clinton/Gore repetition of “worst economy in 50 years” resonated as Bill Clinton declared that “Mr. Bush’s” age was not the issue, but that his ideas were old. Hillary demonstrates her intellectual laziness invoking this same stale playbook. She has no concept of the irony.

    Great post Pat_S, as usual. I suffered through her note/teleprompter reading and agree…the only thing missing was the landing in Bosnia story “I remember landing under sniper fire. There was supposed to be some kind of a greeting ceremony at the airport, but instead we just ran with our heads down to get into the vehicles to get to our base.”

    She told several versions of the ‘landing under fire episode’ pointed out in an article about why we should forget Brian Williams lies compared to a Presidential candidate. http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2015/feb/8/jospeh-curl-forget-brian-williams-its-hillary-clin/?page=all

    I think that speech last all weekend, didn’t it? It sure felt like it. Her pitch could not have been more monotone, exhaustively slow, and yuck! My google digital voice box sounds better. Geesh, I’m already bored.

    What the hell is wrong with Americans that give the wicked witch of the west the traction that she has?
