HILL: REPUBLICANS STILL HAVE LOTT OF EXPLAINING TO DO

Turns up heat.

December 21, 2002 -- Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton yesterday charged that Sen. Trent Lott is an example of the Republican Party's "constant exploitation of race" - and she dredged up accusations that President Bush played the race card during the 2000 presidential contest.

[patriciaruth]

GAG ALERT!!!

[ApesForEvolution]

Hey 'racks, where's the Barf Alert?

[ApesForEvolution]

""I'm looking to see what kind of new leadership the Republican Party will have not in terms of names and faces, but in terms of commitment of equal justice under the law," Clinton said."

It would be nice if she knew what she was talking about and had a leg to stand on in this area. Equal justice must mean that everyone should be allowed the is-is defense...

[FastCoyote]

looks like Hillary's face is about a quart low on the botox.

[ApesForEvolution]

LOL! Yes, she looks rather vamped...

[FastCoyote]

of course we try to depress the black vote, they are all Democrats. Isn't like they try to increase the Christian white vote.

[ApesForEvolution]

I'd love to slap this communist wench around with you till dawn, but me thinks a bed is calling me...Merry Christmas Fast one!

[ECM]

Does this woman actually believe she has a chance in hell of ever being president of this country?

[kattracks]

If I posted what I think of this thing, I'd be banned.

[Quix]

Lord God,

Enough is enough and hisdeous tooooo much is hideous tooooooo much.

PLEASE, LORD, STUFF THIS WOMAN'S FOOT IN HER MOUTH SO FAR DOWN HER THROAT THAT SHE ENDS UP WITH HEMROIDS.

PLEASE TAKE HER OUT OF THE PUBLIC EYE; TAKE HER OFF THE PUBLIC STAGE; REMOVE HER FROM POLITICAL POWER; GIVE HER A NICE HOSPITAL ROOM WITH PADDING; LET HER EAT GRASS AS AN ANIMAL; LET HER SUDDENLY IN A SENATE HEARING ON NATIONAL TV START CONFESSING ALL THE MURDERS AND OTHER FELONIES;
. . .

PLEASE, LORD, BRING HER EVIL CHARADE AND HYPOCRISY TO A SCREACHING HALT AS SOON AS POSSIBLE IN THE MOST FITTING WAY POSSIBLE, (perhaps a rerun of the Roman Ruler and his worm friends would be fitting) IN JESUS' NAME, AMEN.

[wai-ming]

...an example of the Republican Party's "constant exploitation of race"

No, Hillary. It's you and the Democrats who are "constantly exploiting race"

[RichInOC]

I agree, Hill. Trent Lott wasn't enough. We need to make a clean sweep of racists from the Senate leadership.

"...almost heaven...West Virginia...
"Blue Ridge Mountains, Shenandoah River...
"Senator's old there, older than the trees,
"Younger than the mountains, babblin' up a breeze.
"Send him home...country roads...
"to the place...he belongs...
"West Virginia...burnin' crosses...
"Send him home...country roads."

With the exception of Lott's ouster, dems think they have it in the electoral bag with this situation. I'm not so sure. Although this situation was more serious, in a way it's kind of comparable to what happened election 2000, at least to me. Everyone remembers the yelling and screaming bloody murder going on about how the blacks in FL were 'systematically disenfranchised' by the republican party and the dems were using that to try to paint us as racists. Fast forward to election 2002 and the FL fiasco apparently didn't make much hay, did it? What a difference a couple of years make.

Now about the same time 2 years later after FL, another similar sort of incident occurs where the gop is portrayed as appallingly racist due to the Lott flap (AND disenfranchising blacks as the DNC in their blatant lies accuses Frist as RNSC Chairman of doing). They're going to try to use this the same way they wanted to use "Remember Florida," but again, almost 2 years is a looong time in politics.

[John Lenin]

Ohhhhh, it's the Shrew !

[SoCar]

What a disgusting pig! Has this loathesome being ever had an original thought? Do even the most kneejerk liberals think she believes the crap she spews? She is so transparent that it's almost funny!

I dare this evil humanoid to run for Prez in '08. She will lose in such a historical landslide that she will never be heard from again. This Beast has no idea of the antipathy that normal Americans feel towards her..

I'd take Socialist Bernie Sanders over her any day. At least he really believes in his wrong headed wacky ideas. This witch has no beliefs. Her only mission is to advance the agenda of Her Highness. She sold her soul a long time ago, if she had one.

My contempt for Satan's Spawn knows no bounds.

The party that routinely plays the race card in political scampaigns pulls tricks like running hate ads only on ethnic minority stations, running targeted phone scampaigns with taped messages, and posting up anti-campaign posters. The nature of such tactics is to "prove" that the opposition candidate is a racist who does not have the target group's interests at heart (and may in fact oppose that group outright). Of course, the "majority" of citizens are never exposed to these tactics.

Some of these campaigns have included references to a candidate, leaders like Martin Luther King Jr., and then some gunfire in the background. Others will have taped messages by the daughter of Byrd (the man who was dragged behind the truck). There have been spanish language posters that said "Sanchez is Anti-Hispanic" (when Orlando Sanchez was a "Republican" candidate running in a non-partisan mayoral election).

The race card is only played by one party and it is used to keep minority voters dependent and in line.

Some of Clinton's attacks on the GOP over Lott were almost identical to her husband's remarks two days ago.

I noticed this right off, especially these comments:

Slick Willy: "He just embarrassed them by saying in Washington what they do on the back roads every day," Mr. Clinton told CNN outside a business luncheon he was attending.

Hildebeast: "I mean, what [Lott] did was state publicly what many of them have stated privately over many years in the back roads and back streets of the South," she told Fox News Channel.

Yep, they have that "spontaneous" "back roads" phrase down pat. Gosh golly, I'm sure these carefully scripted buzzwords are from the heart.

I hope they keep saying it, because the more they echo each others' words, the more obvious it is that this is nothing more than spin.

Make the most of your time in the sun, 'rats, 'cuz President Bush is about to serve you up a heapin' helpin' of strategery. Enjoy your meal.

[SoCar]

Good catch. I wonder who scripted their "back roads" remarks. What a pair of evil opportunists devoid of any real beliefs.

I am at a loss as to why the democrats are trying this tactic. Who are they trying to influence? They already have the black vote. And then again, maybe they know something we don't, for instance, they are losing the black vote in greater numbers than we suspect. Maybe Bill got an earfull when he made that call to LA during the voting down there.

[P-Marlowe]

Actually it looks like she may have swallowed the Botox.

[kattracks]

And then again, maybe they know something we don't, for instance, they are losing the black vote in greater numbers than we suspect.

Your reasoning makes a lot of sense.

[leadpenny]

'nuf said. When I ignore them, it also keeps my blood pressure down.

[John W]

It would appear that the dismal performance on election day 2002 didn't cost the clintonistas the leadership of the dems.Beyond all the excellent observations already,particularly yours re:what are they up to,they have the black vote and earlier: they may be pulling the string too early,this isn't likely to be "the" issue in 2004-here is another:What election debacle or ridiculous string of statements-such as Hitlery's yesterday-would it take to dislodge these vermin from their exalted status?If you saw video of her comments,it was farcical and she looked worse than the picture here.

Yes, they do have the black vote, but the thing is, not all blacks go to vote, so what they want to do is to get huge, huger and more huger numbers of them out to the polls by whipping them up in a frenzy of racial indignation and injustice.

[Oldeconomybuyer]

So, Hillary thinks that "equal justice under the law" means there should be separate entrance requirements at the Michigan Law School for blacks vs. all other ethnic groups.

[Aeronaut]

In her most heated remarks on the Lott debacle, Clinton warned she would not let the GOP "put this behind them" just because Lott resigned as majority leader.

Presumably she'll also support the efforts to censure Robert (KKK) Byrd, then, too.

Lest Americans ever forget why the clintons, and all their enablers need to be hectored, hounded, and harried into silence, until "clintonese is only spoken in Hell," look here:

"I mean, what [Lott] did was state publicly what many of them have stated privately over many years in the back roads and back streets of the South,"

Name names or apologize. These blanket statements and broad brushes are going to backfire big time.

Is there no way to silence the Hildabeast?? What a scary thing to see at this hour of the morning. I'll surely have nitemares over this one. There should have been a warning put on this post!

[Russell Scott]

Hillary is just jealous Bill was inducted into the AK Black Hall of Fame, and she wasn't even invited to attend the ceremony.

[raisincane]

Someone needs to tell "the smartest woman in the world" to recall American history. Republicans have always been for equal justice for all. Oh, I forgot, Hitlary can't recall anything.

[blondee123]

Just thought of something else, I bet old willy is starting to think even Monica looks pretty good compared to the shrew!

[goldstategop]

Hillary's just trying to get her name in the headlines. The race card is out of the old Dem playbook and it'll flop cause no one believes the rest of the GOP are dyed in the wool segregationists. Believe me if this line of attack doesn't work, Hillary will whine about something else. When all is said and done the Dems still miss a positive message to send to the country.

[grania]

Does this woman actually believe she has a chance in hell of ever being president of this country?

Uhhhh...that's what we said about her chance of becoming Senator from New York.

[grania]

I am at a loss as to why the democrats are trying this tactic

The Republican Party leadership didn't rally 'round Senator Lott when he made a comment that was not racist, and taken out of context. Why? They saw a way to get a leader more to their liking, less in tune with the conservative agenda.

Now, the dems are trying to turn this into open season on Republicans. How is the leadership going to defend anyone after this without seeming hypocritical?

I'd wager that a majority of Americans don't know what Lott said and the circumstances of the statement. They just know that the Republican leadership agrees with the Hildebeast that it was racist.

[goldstategop]

Heck every one on FR is a racist to the Hildabeast's way of thinking. We all speak in code language and stuff. Yes, Hillary there is still a Vast Right Wing Conspiracy humming along.

[gubamyster]

Somebody please tell Hillary that KKK Byrd has a lot of explaining to do:

Sen. Byrd, Confederate General

Sen Robert Byrd Glorifies Confederate, pro-Slavery General Paul Semmes! PHOTO EVIDENCE!

[rambo316]

Oh my God, I cannot be subjected to seeing that face this early in the morning. What a "Trash can head".

[Hillarys Gate Cult]

The former first lady referred to leaflets that said McCain's wife adopted a "black baby" during a trip to Bangladesh. The Bush campaign denied any connection to the leaflets.

These are serious charges against us South Carolina voters, let me answer them;

1) This wasn't important.
2) Any Clymer can print anything on a pamphlet, that doesn't make it true.

I was wondering why I didn't remember this McCain slur. I had to do some searching and remembered it broke the day after the election. Nobody I know heard about it before the election. Maybe Hill is thinking of another South Carolina.

Why McCain lost the SC primary;

1) His part in the Keating Five scandal ( us dumb hicks do remember these things )
2) The crossover vote. McCain accepted it with gusto. Many people I knew said "Democrats don't elect our candidate".
He lost tons of votes because of it. 3) He was just plain creepy.
4) We didn't like him.

Did we need any more reasons not to vote for him?

Thanks for calling all if us racists Hill. Were waiting for her apology to the people of South Carolina, but I won't hold my breath.

[OBone]

God! that woman is ugly. Who keeps beating her over the head with an ugly stick?

[geege]

Your not kidding....bla bla bla

Has this woman done anything good for anyone since she's been in office?????????

Did we need any more reasons not to vote for him?
