Clinton Supporter Ejected From Rules Meeting, “McCain Will Be Our Next President”
By: Jane Hamsher Saturday May 31, 2008 4:25 pm

Things grew increasingly contentious toward the end of the Rules Committee meeting, and a Clinton supporter -- who identified herself as Harriet Christian -- was ejected from the room. I followed her into the hallway and she had her say for the cameras

[Doityourself]

1. Watching CNN now..about 20 people still protesting..

The women there said it is a personal affront on a gender level..huh..WTF? Men and women voted..even Hillary supporters voted for it.

They wouldn't be happy unless Hillary is the nominee..period.

[Cha]

37. Such a Sucky representation of

the gender.

[XemaSab]

153. Only Monica's suckier

:hide:

[YDogg]

165. yes, please

;-)

[anonymous171]

2. Isn't it great that since no pro-Obama demonstrations were held, the media got a full taste

of how crazy the pot bangers (Clinton's 20%) really are?

[Avalux]

4. That was my thinking. I'm glad they showed up to protest.

Gave everyone watching a taste of their fanaticism.

[Ken Burch]

14. You might even say...their CULTISH behavior...

:evilgrin:

[Laura PourMeADrink]

Touche !

[Cha]

48. You might say that...

Hope the SuperDels get a gander at this video to get a real sense what hilary's fomented.

[Laura PourMeADrink]

55. I think you are right - I don't think most Hillary supporters

feel this way at all - but by the candidate and spouse insinuating and planting ideas
and playing on people's racial fears - a new breed of dem has been created. We probably
saw it most in WV and KY. These are not exactly progressive states that would jump
on the bandwagon for a female president unanimously. If they were that progressive,
the vote would have split. Once she knew she had lost, mathematically, you have to
wonder if planting these fears and creating this group was only meant to turn a
portion of the people toward McPain.

[Cha]

69. And I think you're right..I hadn't

thought of that aspect..

"Once she knew she had lost, mathematically, you have to
wonder if planting these fears and creating this group was only meant to turn a
portion of the people toward McPain."

[bluestateguy]

6. Probably the same people demanding that the Duke lacrosse players be lynched

nt

[Evergreen Emerald]

114. what are you basing that on?

[Cha]

43. They so

smart!

[Laura PourMeADrink]

61. I know if we were deprived of the nomination with the delegate lead- there would have

been protests everywhere. But, call me naive, but I would love to think
that it would all be about simple fairness and not about that it was because
Hillary is white.

[roguevalley]

91. it would be hard to imagine the nationwide riots that would happen

if Obama had been thwarted on this. I would have joined that dance.

[shadowknows69]

107. I'd probably be the first fat fucker that some cop would tase

But I'd have to break out the malatov cocktails and join that dance myself.

[shadowknows69]

106. Yep, brilliant

[DJ13]

3. What a racist b!tch!

:wtf:

[derby378]

5. Decorum prevents me from directing a proper response at Harriet...

But Obama won, Clinton lost, and the kiddies need to deal with it, because the adults need to take charge of the party again.

[Cha]

51. The kiddies need a

time out and maybe some playground privileges taken away.

[TexasObserver]

7. Viral Video!! She's an instant classic!! She IS the Hillary Clinton Campaign!!

That's it, right there. A cranky, old, bitter, racist.

[scarletwoman]

73. I hope so! (nt)

[bhikkhu]

154. A 2nd class citizen from Manhattan, no less.

I am sure she is in the soup line daily.

[sniffa]

8. That's no way to treat Geraldine Ferarro

Fucking lunatics

[faithfulcitizen]

lol!

[reflection]

139. Brilliant!

:spray:

[nadinbrzezinski]

9. From the CNN tape why was I reminded of FLORIDA 2000?

Oh never mind...

[billyoc]

10. A stellar example of a Clinton supporter, spitting out "inadequate black male".

Thanks, Harriet, that seizure of yours should be good for about 20 SD's, which is all the "black male" needs to put your candidate in the dumpster where she belongs.

[Cha]

57. OMG...I haven't watched it nor really want to..

but, "inadequate Black male".. as Raymond Kitchell said to the Swiftboater.. "Go back and crawl under you rock", harriet is it.

[jsmirman]

76. LOL

literally

:rofl:

[Tippy]

11. She sounded a bit like Rev. Wright

[genna]

53. No she didn't. Rev. Wright was fairly straight forward about most his stuff

HRC hasn't ever been called an inadequate black man, as far as I know.

[jefferson_dem]

12. Video here too ---

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KACQuZVAE3s

[nomaco-10]

20. Thanks. I had to bookmark that baby. Holy Moly. n/t

[Doityourself]

21. Ha Ha..she's whacked out! Go home...

[Shakespeare]

32. Hideous racist disgusting excuse for a human being.

Oh, and fuck her.

[AtomicKitten]

92. My, what a delicate daffodil she is. Oy.

[nomaco-10]

13. Words escape me..... LMAO

[EmperorHasNoClothes]

15. Disgusting.

Pissed off that she didn't get her way. Real democratic there. :eyes:

[Franks Wild Years]

16. Child-like, vulnerable people.

Let's get past being angry with them. They are very fragile people, people with a mind much simpler and more child-like than the one that many of us are lucky enough to possess. To them, seeing Clinton lose like this is like a child watching their favourite wrestler being defeated by the opponent who they've come to view as a pantomime villain. It's genuinely distressing for these types of people, because Hillary Clinton isn't just their choice for Democratic nominee, she is their life. She is the superhero to whom they cling, the one they believe can deliver them from whatever situation may arise.

[JVS]

38. They suck.

[Cha]

64. Yeah, it sucks

to be them.

[mamalone]

71. I agree,,,

and Clinton has manipulated them to her advantage- she'd throw them out just as quickly too.

We really should pity people like these women, not make fun of them...

[Edgewater_Joe]

17. Who Knew Gerry Ferraro's Sister Was A Racist Crackpot, Too?

Jackass.

[peoli]

18. Wowzers.

[peoli]

Hillary's REAL work is just now beginning.

[nadinbrzezinski]

19. Watched their tape!!!!! WOOOOWWWWWW that is what I call

BITTER

[Rose Siding]

22. Man, that is U.G.L.Y.

She really knows how to make us old white women look bad :(

[Median Democrat]

23. HIllary Must Immediately Issue An Apology!

This is outrageous. Since Hillary's supporters are always insisting that Obama take responsibility for the things said by his supporters, its only fair that Hillary take responsibility for members of her campaign who actively campaign on behalf of John McCain.

Its only fair.

[Brundle_Fly]

44. renounce

AND REJECT!

[fortyfeetunder]

99. I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for her apology.

That would be setting a precedent!

[canadian_is_cold]

24. Freakshow! n/t

[LSK]

25. wow

[DainBramaged]

26. What a bigoted old whore, shame on her

She IS the antithesis of Hillary's campaign and it's supporters.

[genna]

58. In what world is she the antithesis of what hatred HRC's campaign fomented?

Where have you been?

Have you not been reading the racist screeds these fucking people have been writing to editors and other places?

The shit has been personal.
The ooze has been extreme.
The attacks on Michelle have been vicious.


None of it has to do with Democratic ideals where all people are equal. It has to do with a sense of entitlement.

It is a shit sandwich if I've ever smelled one.

[DainBramaged]

68. Wahtttttt? Who are you angrier at, Hillary, the racists, or me?

Because you have no reason to be mad at me. I guess you didn't see that little Obama icon in my posts. And if you think for one nanosecond that it's going to be easier from here on out, dingdingding, wrong, it's going to get worse when the Rethugs let loose.

How about reading my journal and getting back to me oh, in the next century.

[PermanentRevolution]

72. I think they used the wrong word...

I suspect they meant apotheosis, not antithesis.

[kdmorris]

75. The irony is just astounding

What that woman said was abhorrent. What you just said...was, too.

[DainBramaged]

137. Oh well......................

I guess you won't be coming for movies and popcorn.

[Exilednight]

27. That's the one they caught on video, how many were just as bad and not caught? n/t

[Florida4Obama]

28. i bet she's a member of KKK

from west virginia

[Exilednight]

34. I bet she's a member of hillaryis44.com. n/t

[RamboLiberal]

54. Not with that accent - pure NYC n/t

[Madam Mossfern]

33. There was one heavier set

woman who seemed a bit rowdy on camera throughout the deliberations. You couldn't make out what she was shouting.

Go on don't hold back! :rofl:

[City Lights]

30. Wow.

Obama is an "inadequate black man," eh, Harriet?

[JVS]

31. Ok, what's this woman's DU handle?

[MessiahRp]

147. LMAO!

I thought the EXACT same thing when I watched that. In fact a number of DU Screen Names entered my mind immediately!

LOL

Rp

[OnceUponTimeOnTheNet]

35. Watched it. No Comment. Wouldn't be prudent.

Go Obama!

[WeDidIt]

36. Then she should just fucking go vote for McCain

the gawddamned idiot.

[ebdarcy]

39. What a fucking lunatic.

[speedoo]

40. So which TS'd DUer was she?

Mods probably sent her packing a loooong time ago.

[Shakespeare]

47. surfermaw?

Gotta be.

[speedoo]

62. Never an across that one.

Guess I'm lucky, huh?

[Shakespeare]

67. An older white woman who continually posted that black people should be grateful to her...

...for voting for LBJ. And that if it weren't for her, they'd all still be mopping her floors. She was a real piece of work.

[JVS]

158. Nah. She was 80 and voted for LBJ. This one is a tad younger

BULL FUCKING SHIT.

[greguganus]

45. Wonder what her handle is here on DU. n/t

[newmajority]

122. I have an entire ignore list full of speculation on that question

But it would be against DU rules for me to say who.

[GoldieAZ49]

46. I thought they walked out after the MI vote passed

I heard them ask to keep the doors closed until they adjourned, and people continued to walk out.

[genna]

49. I think her "inadequate black male" comment was interesting

White women are 2nd class citizens?

How is it that this racial shit is alright?

Well you can say all people who are interested in gender neutral environments give a damn about racial neutral environments.


Shit on that b.s.

[rainbow4321]

63. I hope any minorities she may have as real estate clients

call her first thing Monday morning and cancel anything they may have with her (and the company she works for if they keep her on)

See post #41

[Liberal Veteran]

50. That was "Kyle". Beware his wrath!

[blonndee]

52. You mean "absolutely racist psycho" from NYC.

[GoldieAZ49]

85. those are exactly the kind of comments she was referring to

You show how accurate she is in her accusation.

Amazing Obama and his supporters have divided the party to insure a repub win when we had the advantage.

[blonndee]

89. Obama is responsible for her racism? Wow, you are so delusional.

Your cognitive dissonance never fails to amaze.

[Catherina]

95. Any comment on HER vile racism tainting HRC support just another chickenshit post from you? n/t

[GoldieAZ49]

96. What did she say that was racist?

NOTHING

[Catherina]

101. Of course you didn't see it.

So many Dixiecrats, so little time.

GO HOWARD DEAN! Clean the trash out so the party can get on with the business of making America a decent country.

[Starbucks Anarchist]

109. How about "inadequate black man"?

Or bizarrely complaining she can't call black people black -- unless she's referring to the "other" word she really wants to use.

[Shakespeare]

116. Wow.

Seriously? That speaks volumes about you if you really don't see it.

[Duder]

105. Your support and unification is noted...

GoldieAZ49 - "That is my lineup,Hillary, then McCain, very simple."

Saw it on page 10.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KACQuZVAE3s

[chieftain]

156. nice catch. n/t

[Starbucks Anarchist]

108. It's racist to point out her racism!

:eyes:

It's like being called "elitist" when you ridicule idiots who think Obama's a Muslim or won't vote for him because of his ethnicity.

[Barack_America]

56. Oh Harriet...

You have done your candidate no favors with your little tirade.

[Ken Burch]

59. Obama was only running because HRC's a white woman?

:wtf:

And "an inadequate black man"?

That's gettin' kinda personal, if you ask me.

(I'd hate to think how she'd know that, btw.)

:rofl:

[speedoo]

66. Right!

Harriet will be the deciding vote!

[NatBurner]

70. ho-lee shit

[jsmirman]

74. My God, I share an island with that idiot.

It's clear that she was the one making a wretched nuisance of herself during the meeting.

Thanks, you nutty loser. Way to make us Manhattanites look like crap. Ugh.

[Laura PourMeADrink]

78. love that line "you nutty loser"

[jsmirman]

86. I honestly died just a little inside when she said "Manhattan"

I'm a proud New Yorker, and she is a stain on our escutcheon.

[Laura PourMeADrink]

97. Sorry. I still love nyc, and the Yankees, if that make you feel any better.

[jsmirman]

151. A little, but it was like I heard the word "Maaan-haaaat-aaan"

come out of her mouth like one of those slo-mo "noooooooooooo" things.

At least the Yankees aren't playing like complete ass finally, but I still think this season doesn't have legs.

[JVS]

159. If only she could have moved to Jersey!

[rainbow4321]

79. She'll probably be offered a Fox News analyst position ....

She can fill in for Geraldine F. on her off nights.

[jsmirman]

88. Penny Crone

:rofl:


Oh, for those that don't know, she was an abomination foisted on us by local Fox News for many, many years.

[jsmirman]

84. Even worse, I used to live about three blocks away from her

wretched dingbat.

[nebula]

77. Harriet Christian

in all her glory.

[nomaco-10]

80. Aren't we missing a couple of ours around here today? lol n/t

[GoesTo11]

81. Hillary should get ejected

[Triana]

82. Looney Tunes! What did the guy at the end say? "My mother gets a little anxious..." ? n/t

[PhiloThePoet]

163. What did the guy at the end say? "My mother gets a little anxious..." ?

I was replaying it and trying to figure it out too.

It sounded like: "My mother gets a little existential
sometimes."

But that can't be right.

[newmajority]

83. You could hear that senile racist bitch yelling even over the crowd

And yes I called the old Republican hag a bitch, because she is one. Not because of her gender, but because of her hateful mentality.

Go to Hell, Harriet.

[AZBlue]

87. She's a dispicable piece of shit.

[Frank Booth]

90. After all the hard work over the past 40 years, it's a shame to see people like this still exist in

this country.

[Irishonly]

93. Temper Temper

What an ass

[quakerboy]

94. Does it strike anyone else

Odd that she is from NY(you know, NY that gave Hillary net 46 pledged delegates, which I believe was her single biggest delegate win in a state, without which she would be behind by 184 pledged delegates, instead of only 138) and protesting that her vote didn't count?

[Laura PourMeADrink]

98. yes. and she didn't strike me as a big "women power" kind of

gal. Racism is totally alive. Thank God, it's only a small percentage.

I think the only way she would have been happy is if Obama had gotten zero
from MI and zero from FL

[Evergreen Emerald]

113. Is there another video where race is mentioned?

I did not see it in the op's thread. Can you point it out where she was racist?

[book_worm]

100. you tell me some of her supporters aren't racists.

[Catherina]

102. Some are and they can waddle their little asses over to McCain.

The sooner the better for the Democratic Party.

[Swamp Rat]

103. How long before she is interviewed on FUX Noise/Clear Channel?: Place your bets.

[newmajority]

123. They'll probably HIRE her.

Too old to be one of their news reading bimbettes, but they could let her fill in when Hannity or O'Loofa go on vacation.

[bvar22]

104. Hillary sure set loose her winged monkeys today.

Cui bono?



The Republican Party!

[sfam]

110. Why are all the loon supporters from New York?

Shouldn't those most upset be from Michigan and Florida? So folks from New York are standing up for THEIR rights? Um, no - they want their candidate to win and they don't care how.

[ruby slippers]

111. what an appropriate last name Ms. Christian has......hah!

[Elspeth]

112. I watched the entire video: there was no mention of race at all!

Not even a suggestion. The woman was injured, she gave her background, her state. The only thing she said about Obama supporters AT ALL was that they were protesting and were not physically removed the way she was.

Your OP and your title are both flamebait.

[stillcool]

118. you did not watch the same video..

obviously.

[Elspeth]

140. I watched the one in the op on this thread

Is there another?

[stillcool]

149. weird...the one I saw was also..

on FDL, but it isn't that one.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KACQuZVAE3s

[Elspeth]

150. AH, it's a different video!

OK. Let me watch this one now.

[fed_up_mother]

126. I watched it twice and didn't hear anything - the school teacher?

[monomach]

132. No, this one:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KACQuZVAE3s

They changed the video at the link.

[Elspeth]

141. That's the one I saw.

I couldn't understand the OP's title after I saw it.

[nadinbrzezinski]

136. Els did you miss the WHITE mentioned

I am a WHITE woman

Did you miss the YOU ARE BLACK and I can't say it, but I am WHITE comment?

How exactly are we to take that?

And yes racism is still a problem in this country

And no, I don't expect her to vote for Obama, or any other African American, running for the highest office in the land EVAH

For the record, I don't expect many older Americans to be comfortable with this

And when election day comes many who will tell you that they voted for Obama, in reality voted third party or McCain

Yes, we still live in a racist country

[Elspeth]

144. Nadin, I am talking about the Deborah Foster one at the OP.

That was the one I watched. Apparently there is another. Do you have a link?

[JVS]

160. try again, it looks like the page linked to adds new stuff frequently

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KACQuZVAE3s&eurl=http://firedoglake.com/

[Evergreen Emerald]

115. I did not see anything racist in your posted video--where do you get that she is racist?

[Shakespeare]

117. Sad.

Really, really sad.

[Evergreen Emerald]

164. let me get this straight:

You are suggesting that she is racist because she protested against Obama? Not one word was mentioned about Obama--not one. His supporters were mentioned only once and it had nothing to do with race.

So, I can only conclude that you are suggesting that anyone who does not support Obama is racist.

[stillcool]

119. She must be high.

[ruggerson]

120. Where the hell does this woman say ANYTHING racist?

[jalynn]

125. I did not see

anything at all racist in that entire video, as far as I could see. Please enlighten us. Just because she does not support Obama, does not make her a racist

[blonndee]

127. It seems as though the video at the link has been changed.

Here is the undeniably racist and embarrassing "Harriet Christian" video:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KACQuZVAE3s

[monomach]

129. See link here:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KACQuZVAE3s

They changed the video.

[JI7]

146. you must be looking at the wrong video

i clicked on the wrong one at first. but lower down i think there is a caption and her name is harriet . that's the racist one.

[fed_up_mother]

124. My bruises don't discolor like that until days later

Anyone else bruise like her?

[monomach]

130. I've NEVER had instant black bruises like that.

Seems staged.

[rainbow4321]

128. Oooooohhh...look who they got to make her leave the building

Given her racist rant, you know this made her even hotter..

http://blog.mlive.com/chronicle/2008/05/update_michigan_florida_delega.html




A security guard tries to get Harriet Christian to leave the hall after she started yelling she was going to vote for Sen. John McCain after the Democratic National Committee Rules and Bylaws committee voted what to do with Florida and Michigan delegates during their meeting in Washington, D.C., Saturday.

[proud2BlibKansan]

131. They should have just used pots and pans

:rofl:

The other really funny thing about this video is that this woman claims to be a PE/Health teacher. Not the picture of health herself. :rofl:

[Buzz Clik]

133. Another downtrodden minority.

[zulchzulu]

134. Is she on match.com? What a hottie!

I just love the anger. Oh yeah, baby...

:puke:

[AngryOldDem]

135. She must bruise really easily.

This was -- what -- just minutes after she claimed she was manhandled?

I call bullshit.

[workinclasszero]

138. What a racist rethuglican McCain loving POS!

Hillary's cultists have been outed as racist followers of Bush/McCain!

FU Harriet!!

[reflection]

142. Just got back from a wedding and saw this video.

I would like to thank this woman for sufficiently neutralizing the Pfeiger video. You go girl!

[IronMikeHouston]

162. Just got back from a wedding and saw this video

LOL, Harriet did that! I do have a comment about the two situations. I think it is fair for the media to play Pfeiger's comments. He is a priest (professional person) and was making a speech at Obama's church (his church until recently). I don't think it is fair for the media to play a fit by someone who seemed juiced and definitely not someone that would represent a candidate's views.

[New Dawn]

143. Harriet Christian Fundamentalist

They forgot to publish her last name.

[davidpdx]

145. I've seen a couple clips with Hillary supporters ranting

it is a disservice to her campaign for supporters to act like that. Given how bad it could have been, I'm surprised how well it did go. People were pretty well behaved with a few minor exceptions.

Most importantly the whole thing is over and the issue of Michigan and Florida is off the table.

[Imagevision]

148. Wouldn't ya'll love to see Pelosi give Hillary the boot...?

[Douglas Carpenter]

152. it's a damn good thing that Sen. Obama advised his supporters not to protest at the DNC meeting

It could have created a very ugly situation.

Now the whole world saw go to see just how crazy those people really are.

[LTR]

155. "Don't tase me, bro!"

[JVS]

157. Hillary should reject and denounce Harriet Christian

[IronMikeHouston]

161. Harriet Christian

I agree that Hillary has not been treated fairly. How can you have two large states' representatives given one half vote because they had their primaries early? Who woke up and decided that Iowa and New Hampshire should be first? Let the states decide when they will have their primaries.

Anyway, Harriet seems drunk and she is definitely a filthy mouth. She is definitely not anyone that a candidate would want as a leader on their team. If I was Hilliary, I would distance myself away from Harriet. I hate to say this but she reminded me of an old drunk bitter racist white woman. She probably is OK if she isn't drinking but put a little juice in her and she shows her @ss!
