Hillary Taped Her Announcement Long Ago
2007-01-22
If the timing came as a bit of surprise, nothing could have been less unexpected than Hillary's "I'm In" announcement of today.

But have a look at the video of her announcement. Rather than her "let's chat" rap, please focus on the background. Look out the door. Presumably the announcement was shot in one of Hillary's homes: Chappaqua or Georgetown. Now I know it's been a mild winter, but even so, surely the leaves are gone from the trees and bushes in either spot.

And check out the yellow spot in the bushes. At first I thought it was just a warm dapple of sunshine. But freeze the frame when, about 1/4 of the way through, Hillary says "how to end the deficits that threaten Social Security." That's not sunshine -- those are flowers in bloom.

#11  In good times, I would urge a Hillary presidency.
She is so bitter and hateful that within 4 years, she would be alone, friendless, notorious, and the butt of unending humor. Of course, we would need a republican Congress just to assure that America would not go the way of Venezula.
But then, what's the point ? It's not worth the time just to show the world how miserable she is.

#10  DMFD, Slick Willie never served in the Miliotary but he was the Commander in Chief, to our eternal detriment. One of his closest miliotary advisors was Murtha.

#9  So by lefty logic - how can someone who's never served in the military, expect to become Commander and Chief??

#8  She's scary.. Where is the location of the secret Clintonian replication chambers? Can we shut them down or will they self implode from excessive pomposity?

#7  Sounds like Mrs. Iselin in the original Manchurian Candidate (not the crappy remake): "The speech is short. But it's the most rousing speech I've ever read. It's been worked on, here and in Russia, on and off, for over eight years...rallying a nation of television viewers to hysteria, to sweep us up into the White House with powers that will make martial law seem like anarchy!"

#3  From the Catholic Encyclopedia:

"Dictatorial, unscrupulous, calculating, and crafty... Moreover, being intensely superstitious, she surrounded herself with astrologers. But she was sadly wanting in strong religious faith, and acted in favour of Catholicism only because in so doing she saw some advantage to her crown... Indeed her methods were so essentially egotistical as to border on cynicism..."

#2  "Like many of that time, she adopted as some of her more famous if not admirable practices, the arts of finesse, lying, and even assassination by poisoning in carrying out her role of statesmanship in particular. Rumors of a hidden or trap doors to dispose of the bodies of her victims brings to light a more sinister side of the renaissance queen."
