are back in the saddle in the Obama administration?"




"Question: Why do you fail to recognize that the same economic geniuses that guided Clintonomics are back in the saddle in the Obama administration?"



Answer:



She knows... she doesn't care. Her objective is to promote ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING Obama does.

What's funny is that Obama is being centrist and kissing Republican ass. Something she constantly berates Hillary for. It's called hypocrisy.

This is 2009, not 15 years ago. Barack is playing with a different hand than Bill and Hillary had. She likes to compare the 2 situations as if they are the same, lol. She likes to pretend we are living in the 90's. She knows better, but she's hoping we don't.


We aren't idiots.
