I just watched the Clinton/Congo controversy video...
I'm not really sure why the media is trying to run away with this story. If anything, Hillary laid down the fucking law.


I thought it was kind of bad ass that she actually displayed some legitimate emotion. I'm use to her playing Mrs. Niceguy all the time. It's refreshing to see her speak her mind.


I never supported her in the primaries, but I'm starting to like her a lot more.

2. What that video showed me is we saw the REAL Hillary during the
primaries. She's a tough cookie, alright. :scared: But, I loved how she came across like, don't mess with me. I'm not the one.

5. because they can try to turn this into something it isn't. and she's a clinton,
so the folks that don't like her will eat it up. It's ridiculous... and if she were a man, no one would be saying a thing about it.

6. It was also a dumb misunderstanding -- a result of a translator's error
The student asked, "what does President Obama think" and the translator mistranslated and asked, "what does President Clinton think."

So Hillary's reaction was valid based on what she heard (a sexist question that assumed Bill was still in charge), but I'm sure the locals who spoke the local language must have been scratching their heads about her reaction to a valid question that assumes correctly that the current president lays out the direction of foreign policy.

7. When I saw that I was like that is what the Repugs were scared of...her hitting them
in the fucking crotch and walking over them while they are on the floor in pain.

She would have gotten their asses back for fucking with her when she tried to do healthcare reform back in the 90's.
