If Hillary Can’t Even Handle NPR …

. . . how could she deal with genuinely critical media? Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton got into a testy exchange with NPR’s Terry Gross on Thursday, as Gross tried to get Clinton to explain her views on marriage equality over time. Gross attempted to get the former secretary of state to explain whether […]

Hillary Lied, Americans Died

“This has been a difficult week for the State Department and for our country. We’ve seen the heavy assault on our post in Benghazi that took the lives of those brave men. We’ve seen rage and violence directed at American embassies over an awful internet video that we had nothing do to with. It’s hard […]

Sweet Revenge: @SarahPalinUSA on the Media’s Hillary Double Standard

The ironic payback for Trig Trutherism: Now that liberals want to protect Hillary Clinton from scrutiny and criticism — especially questions about the 66-year-old former Secretary of State’s health — Sarah Palin is there to remind the media of how they treated her: Hey!

Vote Sodom/Gomorrah 2016!

by Smitty You can despise Greenwald all you like, but I have the puke-coming-out-my-nose feeling he’s spot-on here: How do you feel about the early presidential jockeying? Hillary is banal, corrupted, drained of vibrancy and passion. I mean, she’s been around forever, the Clinton circle. She’s a f_____ hawk and like a neocon, practically. She’s […]

Under All That Spin & Whitewash, I Guess That Tammy Bruce Isn’t A Hillary! Fan

by Smitty Absolutely brutal assessment of Hillary!, brought on by the Monica Lewinsky resurgence: …I, too, want a woman in the White House. But not just any woman. I want a president who loves this country more than herself. I want a president who genuinely views the American people as valuable, important and worthy of […]

Theory 2a: #Benghazi-Bimbo Connection

by Smitty Referring to Ann Althouse’s post on the Zombie Bimbo Revival, of course the answer is Hillary. Vanity Fair also stands to gain from the notoriety, and those two own 70% of the poll. However, Monica’s story is the kind of thing that has probably been in the can for a while, waiting for […]
