Hillary is not going to run for president. Oh, she may put her name up. But run, as in the sense of actually campaigning, that’s another story altogether.
There’s a line from the first Godfather that’s always stuck in my mind. Sollozzo (Al Lettieri), the family’s deadly enemy who has just taken an almost fatal crack at Don Corleone, bends forward and near-whispers, “Could I have gotten to him ten years ago?”
That line has been running through my mind the past several weeks as the e-mail saga has unfolded: Could anybody have gotten to Hillary ten years ago?
The answer, of course, is “no.” Nobody could have gotten to her. Nobody ever has. Hillary -- far more than Bill -- has endured assaults that would have put anybody else in American life in the gutter for good -- if not in a fed pen. She has been as untouchable as any Godfather. ~snip~
Apart from naked support by a corrupt media and pure ideology -- the millions of female neurotics who see her as the rightful heir of Susan B. Anthony and company -- she has gotten away with this through a combination of gall and fear. No matter what the accusation or the quality of the evidence against her, she has answered with absolute hauteur. Often coming up with excuses and explanations that wouldn’t fool a child of five, but put forward with such blank-faced cockiness as to completely fool the simple and flummox the gatekeepers. Time and again, her enemies -- which have included and still include some of the wisest, most experienced, and most moral that this country can claim -- have been reduced to simply shaking their heads and saying “How the hell can somebody say that?”

Well ... I am white.
*sigh* me too.
I have often thought the beast was wanting to ‘appear as though she was running’ in order to continue collecting $300,000 honoraria up until the last minute. Once a candidate declares the spotlight will come off of her and she will diminish. If she declares she cannot collect that honoraria. She must have an incredible ability to rationalize the evil of her critics to forth and actually run.
a room in a women’s mental institution should be given her for years of rest and recuperation.
“I’m queen of the universe!
Yes, yes you are dear...”
It’s the white man’s burden. Somebody’s gotta do it!
Sometimes paying half your taxes into welfare just isn’t enough, is it?
It is never enough. Having four great grandfathers fight for the Union Army wasn’t enough. We need to ride public transportation and let ourselves be beaten ... regularly.
I’ll sell my car!
You bet, that’d work too. :)
Give it away. To a minority. I can throw in a used set of 1970s teflon coated cookware. And an old computer with Windows ‘95 on it.
