You might call me Hillary Clinton’s biggest fan. Ever the Hillary Clinton junkie, I keep my ears open for more stuff on the future President of the United States. And just last week . . . boy did I get an earful.
Whatever radio station I was listening to on the drive into work played a shrieking Hillary, preaching to the faithful.
‘I am sick and tired of people who say that if you debate and you disagree with this administration somehow you’re not patriotic,? she shouted at an address to Connecticut’s Jefferson Jackson Bailey dinner. ‘We should stand up and say we are Americans and we have a right to debate and disagree with any administration.?
When I say, ‘shrieked? I mean shrieked, in a shrill way. It was scary and maybe now I understand her husband’s distance from her.
At the beginning I said, ‘You might call me Hillary Clinton’s biggest fan.? What I forgot to add is, ‘You could call me that, but that would be a big fat lie.?
I cannot imagine this individual as President of the United States of America. I think if she ever does become president I’ll follow in actor Alec Baldwin’s footprints and move to Europe.
Our gal Hil was stumping against those meanies who dared voice their opinion about her pals in the entertainment industry. Americans were openly critical of some entertainers voicing their opinions on President George W. Bush and the war in Iraq.
I find Hillary’s April 28 comments interesting, if not hypocritical. Doesn’t she remember when she and her husband were ‘the administration?? If any women came out in public about Bill’s friskiness, she called them dumb, mean, cheap — she did whatever she could to discredit her sisters in Bill.
When anybody was critical of Bill, she came out with the ‘vast right-wing conspiracy.? In other words, when the shoe was on the other foot, she didn’t much care for freedom of speech. And another thing, nobody in the current administration is calling anybody unpatriotic for voicing their opinions. It’s just Hillary.
If you want to hear that part of her speech that I referred to go to Sean Hannity’s site: (www.hannity.com) and go to the On The Show listing. And, remember, I warned you.
