Klein has some good interviews in his book that make me question Hillary
http://hosted.ap.org/dynamic/stories/C/CLINTON_BOOK?SITE=DEWIL&SECTION=HOME&TEMPLATE=DEFAULT

Readers will learn from the book, thanks to an interview with fifth-grade boyfriend Jim Yrigoyen, that Clinton can be one tough cookie. The old sweetheart recalled how the young Hillary Rodham had entrusted him with watching over some baby rabbits. He made the mistake of giving one to a neighbor.

"She hauled off and punched me in the nose," Yrigoyen said.


****************************

Hell if Hillary's 5th grade boyfriend says she's a tough cookie then maybe we should do something to get Hillary out of office right now

btw....

:sarcasm: :sarcasm: :sarcasm:

1. This guy is just reinventing the wheel
It's a prototype of yet another Hate Hillary book. You only need to read one of them, and then you don't need to read the rest. They all go something like this:

Hillary is very mean, manipulative and ambitious. She's cruel to her staffers. She and Bill have a sham marriage. She's three shades to the Left of Fidel Castro, but she pretends not to be. She'll say or do anything to be elected president. I'm writing this book to "warn" the American people. We must stop her. Blah, blah...

4. We should congratulate Hillary on her resolve
If she was a male conservative Republican, I am sure that the author would be using the story to demonstrate her resolve to protect baby bunnies. He would probably even argue that this incident was evidence that Hillary was fit to lead the country because clearly she could win the war on terrorism.

16. Hey, someone has to win the war on kidnapping baby bunnies
One unintended consequence of this book is that it might humanize Senator Clinton. The story of the tough little girl protecting the baby rabbits is a cute story, even though I am sure the author included it to demonstrate how "uppity" Hillary Clinton was as a child.

7. Good. Question Hillary...
...just as you would anyone else who wields such power. As relatively benign as she seems next to today's GOP, she's another corporatist, and bears no little responsibility for the state of American "managed" health care, f'r instance.

I doulbt Klein's book will serve in this effort, though, if it's all rant and fluff as it seems.

11. Yep. I was being serious...
...though.

It's good that hacks like Klein can publish. It's bad that no serious analysis of his work will hit the mass media.

That Klein blows is no reason to sanctify Hillary. I'm wondering what he managed to get right, and whether I'll be able to find it among all the political porn.

9. Exactly
We need decent women in the Senate like Katherine Harris, women who know their place, wear too much makeup, do what their superiors tell them to, and would never ever hit anybody with a Y chromosome. (Except of course if he's a Democrat.)

And buy gifts for their boss's relatives. (Like an election for her boss's brother.)
