The Politics of Lady Hillary's Personal Destruction In Her Journey To The Throne
Poor Lady Hillary, she thinks she is above reproach, beyond the ordinary "slings and arrows of outrageous fortune" in her travels to being crowned elected President. First a perhaps unintentional pretender to the throne, one Lord Barack of Obama challenged her via being lauded by the evil black knight Miles Sir Meany (aka MSM) as the new "Rock Star" of Democratic political thinking what with a book on hope, being black, being white, being Muslim, being Christian, being African, being American, and certainly sounding royal presidential she was rushed into having a conversation with America, one she hadn't planned until much later in the cycle. Then, horror of horrors, a brash knave, who formerly bowed and worshiped at Hillary's feet said some exceptionally truthful nasty things about her. That was bad enough, but even worse was this knave raised funds for Lord Barack by poaching on Hillary's own turf and acknowledged fiefdom, the Principality of Hollyweird Hollywood.
And, pray tell, where was her own mage, her master of all things wizardry the magical and mystical Sir Bill? Why, chasing down a wench or twelve no doubt. Lady Hillary then, partially remembering his famous incantation "The Politics Of Personal Destruction" pulled it out and flung it in the direction of Lord Barack demanding he chastise the knave and return his ill gotten goods (no doubt so that she could collect the same goods later). But, Lord Barack merely smiled and the spell fell harmlessly at his feet. T'were that not enough, Sir Bill of Richardson and Sir Thomas of Vilsack chimed in with "Can't we just get along?" Lady Hillary of course demanded that Lord Barack fire his troubador David Geffen but, unfortunately for Lady Hillary, Troubador Geffen doesn't work for Lord Barack. But, it did show that Lady Hillary may have some awful thin skin, and in her case, it doesn't lead to more transparency it only shows her remarkable lack of political accumen.
The former Royal Jester Dickus Morrisus commented that
Hillary and her boys realize that all that Obama has to sell is his purity. He's like Evian water. He has no particular taste, he's just the un-cola -- the opposite of the vicious, destructive, partisan politics that pervades our country and turns off the voters.Ahh yes boys and girls, as the sun sets overPurity is a high standard, particularly for a politician, especially for one who is running against a Clinton. And purity is the easiest thing to sully. Just a drop of ink in a bottle of Evian makes it "dirty" and undrinkable.
"Out, damned Spot! out, I say!-- One; two; why, then 'tis time to do't ;--Hell is murky!--Fie, my lord, fie! a soldier, and afeard? What need we fear who knows it, when none can call our power to account?--" [emphasis added, but wasn't the Bard prescient?]

The one real positive thing about Hillary is that she is on top. She has no place to go except down. I hope I hop I hope.
Meanwhile, back at the ranch:
Way to go, Al. The Supreme Court can't take that one away from you.
Also, adding to the accolades it received last night, I would now honor `The Departed' with the coveted
`I had to pee during the whole movie but didn't want to miss any of it' award.
P.S. to Woody - my crack about `having some pride' the other day was meant to be cheerfully sarcastic, not mean spirited. I wish I knew the emoticon for that :)

BWAHAHAH!!! Oh GM...THAT was hilarious. It is fun to sit back and watch all this play out isn't it?
Hillary will have more moments like this too. She cannot deal with competition, esp. from her own side. She will bully them, buy them, sell them, trample all over them- she will not do well with it. Whether she likes it or not, she is a woman, who has feelings. When the battle gets hotter, the antics of her HUSBAND, Sir Bill, will come into the show as well. She's asking to be embarrassed, I say.

Ah GM, thanks once again for brightening my day. That gave me quite a laugh and so accurate as well.

In 1966, during the reign of Lyndon Johnson, Barbara Garson wrote a play called MacBird starring our then president as the title character.
Perhaps it's time to update once again with MacHill...Certainly the relational history between Hillary and Bill bears an uncanny resemblence to that between MacBeth and Lady.

Tangential. I just don't get conservatives who get all torqued about Hillary because of her appearance. I think she's cute as a button. I don't trust her, but I think she's fine to look at, even when she's angry.
Maybe especially when she's angry.
