Breaking: Hillary Clinton Sneezes
An unnamed source from the Obama campaign suggests that the sneeze may have been on purpose, perhaps to curry favor with the pharmaceutical lobby. The source also observed: "She mentioned Martin Luther King last week. Perhaps she thinks his legacy is something to sneeze at."

News of the event is right now being fed into the Obama Outrage Machine, which will generate several hundred Democratic Underground and DailyKos posts by the end of the day.

5. I hear she is backed by the tissue paper corporations
Just last night, she told a reporter she uses a hanky -- she stole that from Obama! HE is the one who uses a hanky!

Does anyone have a picture of Mr. Hanky I can put in my sig to display my outrage over this dirtiest of dirty tricks?

4. Which was then responded to by "Gezundtheit"
rather than "God Bless You"

Clearly a move designed to ingratiate her with AIPAC.

6. The Israelis forbid the Palestinians from using tissues OR handkerchiefs
So they must wipe with their sleeves.

The indignity!

Noam Chomsky wrote all about it in a scathing essay for Countersniff called "Hillary Blows".

It's all because Hamas blew up the Zyrtec factory, which was really an act of self-defense.
