I can't believe that anyone who has a serious understanding of our current dilemmas still buys this crap that if we just elect someone "different" -- in Hellary's case, preferably herself -- all our problems will instantly be solved. But here she is, peddling that meme.
Clinton Slams Bush, White House in Harlem
By DEEPTI HAJELA, Associated Press Writer
NEW YORK -- Sen. Hillary Clinton on Monday blasted the Bush administration as "one of the worst" in U.S. history and compared the Republican-controlled House of Representatives to a plantation where dissenting voices are squelched. [Nevermind that her and her party's apparatchiks are just as responsible for this by squelching anyone who works outside the narrow paradigm established by the center-right politics of White suburban 'swing voters' and the far right represented by the neocon and DLC elitists, as well as purged those who dared to call a spade a spade.]
Speaking during a Martin Luther King Jr. Day event, Clinton also offered an apology to a group of Hurricane Katrina survivors "on behalf of a government that left you behind, that turned its back on you." Her remarks were met with thunderous applause by a mostly black audience at the Canaan Baptist Church of Christ in Harlem. [Why the hell was she dead silent when it was happening? Did polls tell her it was safer to question Dear Leader 4 1/2 months after the fact?]
The House "has been run like a plantation, and you know what I'm talking about," said Clinton, D-N.Y. [Oh boo freakin' hoo, Hellary. Yeah, I'm sure as a former Goldwater girl and the daughter of upper-middle class White privlige, she's felt the sting of slavery and Jim Crow laws. ] "It has been run in a way so that nobody with a contrary view has had a chance to present legislation, to make an argument, to be heard." [Pot, meet kettle.]
"We have a culture of corruption, we have cronyism, we have incompetence," she said. "I predict to you that this administration will go down in history as one of the worst that has ever governed our country."
A spokeswoman for the White House declined to comment and referred questions to the Republican National Committee.
RNC spokeswoman Tracey Schmitt said: "On a day when Americans are focused on the legacy of Martin Luther King, Hillary Clinton is focused on the legacy of Hillary Clinton." [Sums it up nicely.]
