Best. Primary. Ever.

“There seems to be an abiding anger in him,” one of his senior aides told Todd Purdum. Good lord, does there ever. Not to begrudge the man a little righteous outrage at being the target of a hit piece, but the detail here about him refusing to let go of Mayhill Fowler’s hand is the creepy final act to a campaign performance that passed “bizarre” a long time ago. He’s like Orson Welles here tearing apart the bedroom at the end of Citizen Kane in frustration that no one’s left to admire his greatness.
Which isn’t to suggest that what he has to say is untrue.
(Poster's Note: I cackled long and hard while reading the following quote.)
Tightly gripping this reporter’s hand and refusing to let go, Clinton heatedly denounced the writer, who is currently married to former Clinton White House Press Secretary, Dee Dee Myers.
“[He’s] sleazy,” he said referring to Purdum. “He’s a really dishonest reporter. And one of our guys talked to him . . . And I haven’t read [the article]. There’s just five or six blatant lies in there. But he’s a real slimy guy,” the former President said.
When I reminded him that Purdum was married to his former press spokesperson Myers, Clinton was undeterred. “That’s all right– he’s still a scumbag,”
Clinton said… “You know he didn’t use a single name, cite a single source in all those things he said.. It’s just slimy. It’s part of the national media’s attempt to nail Hillary for Obama. It’s the most biased press coverage in history. It’s another way of helping Obama. They had all these people standing up in this church cheering, calling Hillary a white racist, and he didn’t do anything about it. The first day he said ‘Ah, ah, ah well.’ Because that’s what they do– he gets other people to slime her. So then they saw the movie they thought this is a great ad for John McCain–maybe I better quit the church. It’s all politics. It’s all about the bias of the media for Obama. Don’t think anything about it.”
“But I’m telling ya, all it’s doing is driving her supporters further and further away– because they know exactly what it is– this has been the most rigged coverage in modern history– and the guy ought to be ashamed of himself. But he has no shame. It isn’t the first dishonest piece he’s written about me or her.”
I don’t think Pfleger went off on Hillary at Obama’s behest but some of his other cronies surely have. The audio’s coming, supposedly; I’ll update when it’s available. Exit question: Man, Mayhill Fowler sure has a knack for being in the right place at the right time, huh?
If this were some sort of remake of ‘der Bunker’, Emperor Billigula would indeed put the revolver in his mouth and pull the trigger after one final tirade, but Hiliarly would not meekly go into eternity like Eva Braun, oh no, she would do to everyone what Frau Goebbels did to her children:
Destroy them all.
And I predict she will, in a political sense of course.
Currently? Probably true, but it seems odd that the writer would identify someone in that context in an actual article. Sign of the times I guess...
He should try being GW if he wants bias reporting. What a whiner!
Pray for W and Our Troops
Best. Primary. Ever.
It seems that Soros is the brawn ($$$) behind the Obamassein campaign, but who is the brains that is running this show? Who are his speech writers and handlers? Anyone know?
Golly!If it weren't for the news media I never would have known that! Next they'll tell me "Dog bites man!"
Rush’s theory bears looking at: that in fact Pleger WAS an Obama campaign plant to allow O to back out of an affiliation with his church-—to disown the “white man,” so that he wouldn’t have to look like he was disowning the brother!
Indeed. Unfortunately, like a bloody car wreck at Indy, this entertainment does not have a happy ending no matter what happens.
bill jeff like the lds jeffs
has a lot of women.
Kettle, meet pot.
I suspect that item was included to make the point that the author was NOT married to Myers when she was working in the White House back in the 1990s.
I just love it when the Rats eat their own. :-)
