In an interview in yesterday's Washington Post, Hillary Clinton said she had contributed to the country's mood of bitter partisanship and wants to "put an end to it." The senator hedged her words for future revision by referring to the problem throughout the interview only as "it."
Thus, she spoke of "having gone through it, having been on the receiving end of it and in campaigns that were hard fought maybe on the giving end of it . . ." When the reporters pressed her to explain her views on polarization, she said: "I've talked about it a lot, and I think I will continue to talk about it in a lot of different ways."
It's a start. I would like to put a question to the senator: Would you defend Rush Limbaugh's speech rights against the pressure that was brought upon him on the floor of the Senate by your colleagues Harry Reid and Ken Salazar? Colorado's Sen. Salazar went so far last week as to say he'd support a Senate vote to "censure" Mr. Limbaugh. Rhymes with censor.
When Sen. Reid attacked Mr. Limbaugh on the floor of the Senate, some felt that Mr. Limbaugh was a big boy and perfectly capable of defending himself. I'm not so sure. If Mr. Limbaugh and his critics at Media Matters want to have a street fight, that's their business. But Sens. Reid and Salazar aren't just a couple of opinionated guys; they are agents of state authority, and they were leaning hard on Mr. Limbaugh. If you are Media Matters, if you are a man or woman of the Left, does state pressure on someone's political speech discomfort you? Or is it a welcome, even defensible, repression of harmful right-wing speech?

...two inches of limp Bill?
“hillary! talks about ‘it’”
“it”? they must be talking about the blatant obnoxiousness of the revolutionary socialists in congress whose psychosis is called “fighting for the children”.
(they’re not fighting for anything except power built upon the bodies of millions of aborted children.)
the tragedy is that more than half of the “american electorate” is going to vote for democrat treachery.
Lil’ Mizz Bill Clinton’s got a trial of broken people and bodies over a coupla decades long to get over “it”......
Lil’ Mizz Bill Clinton’s got a trail of broken people and bodies over a coupla decades long to get over “it”......
So she’s going to close down the Clinton Chinese Mafia War Room??
Pray for W and Our Troops
I will grant her the humanity to feel from time to time a weariness from ceaseless and remorseless partisan warfare. But I would not trust her and would never expect her to stay her hand.
“it”...kindalike “is”?
I wish she would just stop talking.
Depends on the meaning of “it”, right “Let’s have a conversation”, “Let’s chat”?
Any senator who launches a pre-meditated attack on any innocent American should resign.
“...That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.”
So is she going to put “it” in her testicle lock box?
Hillary already thinks of herself as the next President. She knows very well that conservatives could sink her legacy, which she is already constructing as the USA’s first woman president.
So we can expect many more of these calls for Kumbaya from her and her cohorts, such as her lapdog Bob Beckel on Fox this morning. To Democrats, bipartisanship always means giving up one’s opposition to the socialist agenda. If conservatives fall for this over and over, they are the epitome of the old saying about insanity.
They’ve got some nerve talking about common ground and ending the bickering. Almost every statement they make has to include shots at the far right, extreme right, intolerant right, vicious right wing attacks, Republicans want children to get sick, and you know the rest of the nonsense. But of course WE are the bad guys?? What a joke.
She will patronize and say whatever she thinks will get her another vote, and only be believed by fools who don't understand she's the devil re-incarnated.
To trust ANYTHING she says is to drink the Klinton Kool-Aid.
So this is what her handlers have told her to say?
America makes no deals with satan or his daughter!
LLS
Hillary already thinks of herself as the next President. She knows very well that conservatives could sink her legacy, which she is already constructing as the USA’s first woman president.
If she becomes president, there will be no history to look back on, because it will be the end of this country.
