Stop me before I pander again (audio clip of Hillary Clinton's Selma speech)
American Thinker ^ | March 05, 2007 | Thomas Lifson

Posted on 03/05/2007 10:01:54 PM PST by neverdem

There has been a lot of attention paid on the web and on talk radio to this audio clip of Hillary Clinton affecting a Southern accent addressing a rally in Selma, AL yesterday. Not the same rally Barack Obama spoke at, though. A seperate but equal rally, of course.

It appears that Hillary has a problem with getting carried away when addressing an audience. The woman who claims she was "always a Yankee fan" despite growing up in suburban Chicago, is going to have quite a problem, if she campaigns for the next 18 months. Who knows what other accents she will affect? Will her harridan-voice become a familiar tone when audiences wildly applaud and she tries to talk over them?

It is looking to me as though she has a real problem with authenticity.

the "Mahatma Gandhi pumping gas in St. Louis" line has to be up there at the top.

Anyone have that sound bite?

FYI, I just sent this current one to everyone I know. Y'all might want to do the same.

It'd be a great idea for someone to compose all of the Beast's stooopid soundbites.

Her finest moment was when she called a servant a "fu*king Jew bastard" and nobody cared. Her Jewish constituents loved her dearly for some reason. I did not.

You mean this? There's a few pages of her filth.

It's uncensored and has her filthy quotations in it, so BEWARE.

BTW, can anyone name a liberal who is a "lady?"

she is a democrat
how many sane democrats do you know?




Well, I actually knew 1... he was here in Japan and actually listened... then we would change the subject to avoid politics. He moved to Canada about 2 years ago (he's American AND black).... He was actually in the top 10 of the most friendly people I ever met.

Other than that... none.... I still have a little hope though :P

My wife has never been as big a Clinton hater as I am and has always indicated that she might vote for Clinton because of her gender. Last night, I played Clinton's speech for her. The reaction was priceless.

The first time she heard it, she started laughing because she thought it was a joke.

When I explained the context of the speech she asked me to play it again. This time she was literally speechless. I played it a third time and she became downright angry and asked how stupid does Clinton think we are.

Only March of 2007, and she is already losing the woman vote.

It was just about the worst, most offensive Southern accent that I have ever heard. And the substance was insulting to any half-way thinking person.

That worst part was that no one present seems to be offended or insulted.

I agree. If she came to my church and spoke to me like this, I would boo her and walk out. I have never understood why some of our people worship this condescending racist.

'Rats will want to put this behind them as quickly as possible because it'll hurt her with black voters and just make the woman look ignorant and stupid and ridiculous... Which is why conservative talk show hosts should play the tape at the beginning of their shows, everyday, from now until the election. Don't let her put it behind her!

Outstanding clip! A talking chameleon!

An anti-truth, anti-freedom, anti-individual, anti-life, rapist-enabling, scumbag POS this close to becoming CIC is never a good thing in The United States of America.

We are still paying and fighting for the destruction her co-rapist caused.

The question is why anyone in that audience applauded a single word of her speech.

I was embarrassed for them.

First: I am hard core right wing. Rush and ann are a little soft on the liberals if you ask me.

But........ The hildebeast lived in Arkansas for many years. (I am a native Texan) The southern accent is something that can come and go depending on the group you are with. When I go home, small town Texas, with my relatives the accent gets thick. When I summer in Vermont, I lose the accent unless they make a big deal of it and then it gets thicker.

In my opinion it is natural to slip into an honestly acquired southern accent in the midst of others who speak that way.

Now, I never thought I'd defend hillary. But, really this is common. Sorry.

You are suggesting that this was not an intentional drawling but natural.

Yup, you are reaching to defend her heinous.

Seriously, I just can't get over this one, it makes my skin crawl! Is she sane??

Was any despot craving power ever considered sane?

I agree. I would spend a week in TN and come home talking "like 'is".
