To comment on the title of the OP. Making Hilliary sec of state pretty much garanteed that the post would have nothing to do with making friends abroad for the duration of her term.

But then that was never the point, it was the simply time honored political tactic of keeping your freinds close and you enemies closer.

I can see how a woman would take exception to a question asking not her opinion as a high ranking official, but what her husband's opinion is.

However, I would have much rather have seen her respond with something like not understanding the question as it may not have been translated properly. Or perhaps smile and state that he’d have to ask Bill that himself, than to snap back with ***** written all over it.

Oooh jet lag….ain’t it great?

Ok… maybe she is a bit of a *****….

Talking *** "I feel much better now..." ***

After reading the link...I'm REALLY glad she's not near "the button" - piss that b*tch off and you're dead...

Hmmm.....

That just might lend some credence to all that talk/inuendo about the "Foster" incident and related minutia concerning "Whitewater" and such....

Hmmmmmmm......

Hey...excuse me...someone's knocking on my door...

Keep your enemies closer. Indeed!
George Mitchell is Mid-east czar. Richard Holbrooke is Afganistan czar. Who's in charge anyway? Can't tell the players without a scorecard.
Give Obama some credit. He's got her in a tight spot...and far away too.

What I thought was funny was that BillyBob goes in right after TheShe***** leaves (after having called the NKs a few neaderthal names and they fired right back...) and he wins the day for the babes.

No mention of the near-Miss Hillary...just front page heroics and country-wide adulation for Bill.

Bill - 1
Hill - 0

Too good, and laughable at the same time.

She got dissed...That's why she's so-o-o-o-o "touchey."

Imagine if foreign leaders and diplomats were like your high school classmates . . .

"So, Mrs. Clinton, before we discuss the bilateral disarmament proposal . . . what's Bill's take on this . . . yuk, yuk . . ."

or

"Madam Secretary, Bill just called and left a message . . . he thinks the truce stinks and wanted to know what's for dinner . . . psych!"

IN A TRAILER PARK: (Sound of frying pan banging off of head.) "Here's your Bilateral Disarmament Proposal!!!!"

ON THE WORLD STAGE: "I didn't know he was here already!?! *Yuck!* *Yuck!* But seriously, my opinion..."


As for the other quip..."Bill's entitled to his own opinion, and since My Boss is running the show, Bill should have been paying more attention. BTW, I'm not coming home during any time that you'd be aware, so eat whatever's in the fridge, not on it."

Zing!

But nope...she went "estrogen" all over the situation instead of breathing deep, counting to "10." and THEN letting fly the right remarks...

Too touchy for my tastes...

I'm far from a Clinton apologist. I don't like the Clintons at all in fact. And she certainly should've been more diplomatic in her response. Anger isn't often conducive to diplomacy. Anger is anger, and I can see why she got angry.





It's not like her response was abusive or laden with expletives. It was just snotty. And yet she's a 'she *****' to use another's words while we have a Palin thread in which she talks about 'death panels' but somehow the anti-Palinites on this board manage to avoid the name calling.
And I'm not even going to touch the 'went all estrogen' comment.
