Hillary mocking Obama - from February

[Hugabear]

Want to know why so many people can't stand your candidate? Maybe it's shit like this:

[havocmom]

1. That probably got a lot of voters OFF the fence

She really went too damned far. Most revealing moment of the (public) campaign.

[Yael]

2. Yep. Pretty much says it right there.

[jefferson_dem]

3. Hideous display.

I would be ashamed to have her as president.

[MethuenProgressive]

4. Her mocking of the ObamaBots was spot on!

She must know about DU :rofl:

[zulchzulu]

5. Ewww...mentioning a Clinton and spots in the same sentence....

How did you COME up with that?

[Hugabear]

8. Yes - because HOPE and CHANGE are such horrible concepts

Gosh, I'd hate to have a candidate pushing "hope and change" after eight years of BushCo.

[MethuenProgressive]

12. "You can't just wave a magic wand and make special interests go away" -HRC

You just can't HOPE they'll CHANGE, either.
People new to politics find that hard to understand.

[Drachasor]

18. Obama has consistently said it would not be easy and that it would take a lot of work

Hillary's statement completely ignores everything Obama has said.

Frankly, Hillary doesn't seem to even want to TRY to get rid of special interests.

[MethuenProgressive]

25. Non specific, lofty rhetoric, Hope. Change. We can do it. -- yeah, we've heard.

[Hugabear]

28. It's all there if you want to know

30. Sorry, don't click on links from questionable sources.

And any link that has "obama" and "ethics" in it is Highly questionable.

:thumbsup:

[closeupready]

49. Well why WOULD she want to get rid of special interests, when they've done so much for her?

:rofl:

[Buzz Clik]

24. You laugh a lot at your own posts.

We laugh at them, too. Perhaps for different reasons.

[MethuenProgressive]

29. "We"? You got a mouse in your pocket there, Buzz?

Or a list? :rofl:

[Buzz Clik]

31. Tell me -- do you have any links to your posts that contain any substance?

We cross paths often, and your only contribution is throwing shit on the wall or making other rude comments.

Just curious.

[MethuenProgressive]

33. Sorry, but you don't look familiar - do you post here often?

Can't seen to remember reading anything of yours before.

[Occam Bandage]

37. Andy Kaufman strikes again!

[Occam Bandage]

32. Say, MP, what do you think of Richardson's endorsement?

I know you're a huge Richardson fan, so I was wondering what you thought of it.

[sniffa]

38. Now, don't call him on

his fake Richardson backing.

[MethuenProgressive]

44. Still stalking me about Richardson, sniffa?

NGU

[MethuenProgressive]

42. Still stalking me from thread to thread with that?

[Occam Bandage]

45. "Stalking" you? This is the first I have *ever* asked you that.

I believe today is the first I've run across you since the endorsement.

[Saturday]

6. You Obama supporters need to get a thicker skin.

There's nothing Hillary can say that doesn't offend you.

[breakaleg]

10. It's not that it's offensive, it's that it's quite childish. nt

[Hugabear]

13. You would be wrong about that

There are some things that most of us agree with Hillary on - after all, she IS a Democrat, and IF she's our candidate, I'll vote for her.

Maybe you haven't been paying attention when some of us actually come to your candidate's defense when a handful of anti-Hillary posters go too far.

[Alter Ego]

14. Irony Meter = broken.

You don't think this was a direct slam at Obama and his supporters, eh?

And yet you see phantom examples of sexism in everything Obama does--the way he talks, the way he looks at Hillary during debates...anything that you perceive as offensive to Saint Hillary must be thoroughly trashed!

Give me a break. That speech in RI was offensive and rude--and she should have known better.

[Buzz Clik]

27. It's your skin that is thin: You find it impossible to accept criticism of Hillary's comments.

You feel that she should be able to say anything that pops into her skull and be immune from backlash. And, God forbid that someone say something out loud because we're labeled as frail, overly sensitive, or misogynistic.

Toughen up. Or get out.

[Hugabear]

34. Oh, the delicious sweet irony...

39. Hillary Supporters Have Taken Cue From

Mrs. Clinton herself.

They are now playing victims of big bad Obama supporters.

Bill's remark yesterday "it's okay to say bad things about a girl"!!! Here we go again, poor Hillary, never mind the Clinton's will stoop to any level to undermine Sen. Obama and praise McCain.

[Independent-Voter]

7. Veruca was always the sly one!

[breakaleg]

9. That kind of sarcasm is so unbecoming of a President. In some ways, I'm more turned off by this

than say the hootin and hollerin of Dean a few years back.

[Drachasor]

16. It's a very divisive tactic too, unlike the Dean scream

It's very insulting to Obama and his supporters, imho. It's also completely unfounded criticism, since Obama never said things would magically work themselves out; he always said it would be hard and take a lot of work.

[phrigndumass]

11. "You are not going to wave a magic wand and make the special interests disappear"

Senator Clinton's own words, wow.

[Drachasor]

17. AFAIK, she sees no reason to do anything about them

She likes how politics works today.

[phrigndumass]

22. Or ... her campaign doesn't know how government could work without special interests

Either way, it's not good.

On Edit: "As far as I know"

[madrchsod]

15. an oldie but goodie!

she wonders why she is`t ahead

[Buzz Clik]

19. We hear a lot of "If Obama isn't tough enough to take this kind of thing, why is he running?"

There's a flip side: If Hillary is not willing or tough enough to withstand the backlash from these comments, why does she say them?

[TahitiNut]

20. When I first saw that (live?) all I could think of is "the Dark Side of the Force" got Darth Hillary

Cynicism ... from a political hack who proclaims the "sanctity" of the American flag above the sanctity of speech. (Just talk, huh?)

The corrupting influence of beltway insiders is pretty clear. :puke:

[tabasco]

21. Very ugly.

Sickening, in fact.

[indimuse]

41. YOU do know , Obama made that claim the night before SC...

in front of thousands...don't ya? yeah..you are right..Obama is sickening!!!

[SammyWinstonJack]

52. But see it's A OK if Obama does it, says it, ya know?

:eyes: And Obama is sickening!!!.

You're likable enough, Hillary while looking down his nose at her.

He does that a lot, look down his nose. And not just at Hillary, either.

He is very arrogant!

[tabasco]

56. Does what?

WTF are you talking about?

Did Obama throw a tantrum on national tv?

Did he scold Hillary "Shame on you!"

Hillary acted like a jackass. Sorry if the truth bothers you.

Deal with it in your own special way.

[tabasco]

55. WTF are you talking about?

Off the meds?

[Independent-Voter]

23. Just watched it again. Sorry, but what a bitch!

[grantcart]

26. Thats what I want 8 more years of this

[msallied]

36. I agree!! It was this VERY video that flipped my Hillary switch

from "midly annoyed and distrustful" to "downright loathe."

[SaveAmerica]

40. That's the 1st time I've seen that, how is her mocking hope for a better country going to help her?

Doesn't she realize that if she were to win the nomination that she'd want the votes of those Democrats whose hope she's mocking?

[Independent-Voter]

43. It won't. She just seems to get off acting like a fucking shrew.

[Ysabel]

46. yep that was nasty and so right-wingish n/t...

[MethuenProgressive]

48. BO: "a light will shine through that window, a beam of light will come down upon you,"

"My job this morning is to be so persuasive...that a light will shine through that window, a beam of light will come down upon you, you will experience an epiphany, and you will suddenly realize that you must go to the polls and vote for Barack,"

http://www.news.com/8301-10784_3-9845595-7.html
Mocking Barack's Messianic Complex was the right thing to do.

[MethuenProgressive]

50. :crickets: Now that His followers know she was mocking His own words.

Speechless looks good on ya.

[Levgreee]

54. Yes, he joked once in front of a small crowd of Ivy League students, so therefore

that is the message of his campaign. His message should be mocked off a random snippet with humorous intent, instead of the stump speech he's given hundreds of times.

Makes perfect sense....




Hillary wasn't mocking that one time when Obama was speaking in front of those students. She was mocking the overall message of his campaign. You're an idiot if you see it otherwise.

[BklynChick]

53. that was so disgusting LOW
