<A Republican National Committee official said the former first lady was "part of today's angry and adrift Democrat Party," while a spokesman for one of her potential 2006 Senate rivals said she was guilty of "insulting the president.">

Repukes just can't take their own medicine.

Sorry if this is a dupe, but I ran across it looking for another article.

5. Oh sorry

6. What would they say if she called the chimp

a whore, or a murderer? Rethugs repeatedly have called her these and plenty of other vicious things. They are SUCH a bunch of thin-skinned sissies.

7. Yeah, I don't see any of them condeming this book

recently written about her. It's nothing but a pack of lies, but that's o.k. with the Repukes.

14. Actually, a lot of right-wing pundits have condemned the Hillary book,

according to Franken and Conason.

8. Rove Diversion

Or Iraq Diversion or Delay Diversion. Take your pick. I dont agree with President Clinton on everything like Kossov (sp) but he doesn't deserve to be the universe's whipping boy.

McCain Would Trounce Hillary in ’08 Match-up, 54%-35%; Bush Job Approval Plummets to 44%—Iraq Handling at 39%; Kerry, Bush Would Tie if Election Held Again; Just One-in-Four Approve of Congress’ Job Performance, New Zogby Poll Reveals

Arizona Senator John McCain would overwhelmingly defeat New York Senator and former First Lady Hillary Rodham Clinton in a theoretical 2008 presidential match-up, a new Zogby America poll reveals.

The survey also shows that in a re-match of the 2004 election, Americans would now vote in equal numbers for Democrat John Kerry and President George W. Bush, while President Bush’s approval rating has plummeted to 44%—the lowest numbers of his presidency. The poll also found fewer than two-in-five (39%) voters approve of President Bush’s handling of the Iraq war.

The Zogby America survey of 1000 likely voters, conducted from June 20 through 22, 2005, has a margin of error of +/-3.2 percentage points.

The same survey finds Congress’ job rating even lower, with just one-in-four likely voters (26%) rating the legislature favorably—and just 2% saying it is doing an excellent job.

The survey finds that both senators far outdistance their nearest competition for their parties’ nominations—but in a head-to-head match-up, the Arizona Republican bests the New York Democrat by 19 points, leading her 54% to 35%. McCain would also defeat Massachusetts Senator—and former Democratic presidential candidate—John Kerry by a full 20 points, 55% to 35%.

McCain has majority support in every single geographic region of the country. But more telling may be the fact that, even in the states carried by Kerry in 2004, McCain comes out comfortably on top—leading Clinton by 49 to 38% and Kerry by 50% to 40%. Among the states carried by President Bush, the margin is even wider, giving McCain a 58% to 33% lead over Clinton and 59% to 32% lead over Kerry.

McCain leads with most demographics, though Clinton would best him narrowly among Hispanic voters (45% to 38%) and would win African Americans by 80% to 19%. But that 19% would be the highest vote tally for a Republican with African Americans in decades. McCain leads Clinton with every age group except voters under 30, where the two are in a dead heat.

20. thanks...

but damn reality bites

12. OH MY GOD! Insulting the President!!!!

For goodness sake, is Shrub sooo sensative that he can't withstand an insult? I guess that's the reason those guards fight so hard to keep the disenters out of his speeches!

He's old enough now to be able to withstand some slams! Aftr all, he asks for them in every action he takes and every speech he makes!

[jojo54]

13. Here's what she specifically said....

"I sometimes feel that Alfred E. Neuman is in charge in Washington," Clinton said during the inaugural Aspen Ideas Festival, organized by the Aspen Institute, a non-partisan think tank.

The former first lady drew a laugh from the crowd when she described Bush's attitude toward tough issues with Neuman's catch phrase: "What, me worry?"

15. What goes around comes around republicans!

They didn't get as upset when their savior fat boy Rush referred to Chelsea as the white house dog now did they?

[AlGore-08.com]

16. Has anybody started a pool about when she'll apologize for this?

It'll be inside a week, most probably.

[Goldeneye]

18. I wonder what bothers them more about Hillary's remarks

The fact that it's true, or the fact that she had the nerve to say it.

I think its interesting that by attacking her, they're helping make it a bigger story, and helping spread it around. I'm not sure how many people care about the angry democrats, but the image of alfred e. neuman is undoubtedly a more powerful message.

[napi21]

19. Since she said this, every time Shrub is on TV, I think of MAD magazine!

I have the TV on mute but occasionally glance over to see what BS they're pushing now. Shrub as been shown several times, and as I crack a big smile, I really CAN see the similarity to the MAD mag. charachter!

TS that Shrub can't laugh at himself. Everyone needs to be able to do that!

21. You know what, I really wish she hadn't made these comments,

they are using this to take the focus off of Rove.I have heard very,very little from the repubs on Rove, but they have talked about Clinton's remarks constantly. Who gets more attention when there name is mentioned? Clinton or Rove? Somehow the Clinton remark has to be down played and ignored.
