In the middle of her Tuesday speech in Harlem that discussed race relations, Hillary Clinton had multiple coughing fits that prevented her from getting her words out on more than one occasion.

It got so bad that the audience enthusiastically started chanting “Hillary! Hillary!” to provide encouragement as Clinton started taking sips of water while popping in a cough drop.

She struggled to finish her speech in which she said that white Americans needed to recognize their “privilege” and help black Americans overcome “seen and unseen” barriers to opportunity and coughed some more as she exited the stage.

 

Hillary also had a coughing fit during last year’s Benghazi hearings. Coincidence? I think not.

Hillary on the comparisons of dieting and climate change?

climate change, clinton on climate change, clinton on losing weight and climate change, Clinton: Dealing with climate change like trying to lose weight, Hillary Clinton, hillary clinton on losing weight and climate change, hillary on climate control

Secretary of State Hillary Clinton made an unusual comparison Wednesday during remarks that celebrated Earth Day.

“You know, oftentimes when you face such an overwhelming challenge as global climate change is, it can be somewhat daunting,” Clinton said. “It’s kind of like trying to lose weight — which I know something about. Where you think, you know, ‘Oh, I only have to lose X number of pounds.’ But it can seem like such a faraway goal.”

This is BANANAS!  Is changing the entire climate and the way people live similar to shedding a few pounds?   I see no comparison, call me bananas!

The Iraqi government could be tweeting soon, courtesy of Hillary Clinton.

The State Department said Monday it is sending a team of technology executives to help the Iraqi government and other groups expand the country’s emerging new media industry.

The Iraqi people seem to be so stupid, especially the terrrorists, so this is probably a good way for the American people to track when they are about to blow us up.  I can picture the Twitters now…On my way to America to blow up a building in New York…

Journalists who dialed in to a White House conference call Thursday hoping for a media-friendly reception got a far friendlier response than they were counting on.

Instead of hearing Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and National Security Advisor Jim Jones on the other end laying out foreign policy and security threats, reporters were greeted by a recording on a phone sex line.

I have a feeling Bill had something to do with this…

Hillary Clinton Getting High Marks

Hillary Clinton, secretary of state

As Hillary Clinton flies to Mexico for a high level summit, a new national poll indicates 7 in 10 Americans are happy with the job she’s doing as secretary of state.

Polly thinks the poll indicates that people are just happy that she spends the majority of time out of our country.  Does anyone really know what she does anyway?

Hillary Clinton says her first overseas trip to Asia as secretary of state is aimed at creating a “network of partners” to tackle problems that no nation can deal with alone, including the global economic crisis.

I wonder what Bill is doing while Hillary is away?

Special Election in NY

Hillary Clinton, new york special election, NY Special election, senator kirsten gillibrands

New York Gov. David Paterson announced Wednesday that a special election to fill Senator Kirsten Gillibrand’s former House seat will take place on March 31.

Gillibrand represented New York’s 20th congressional district until last month, when she was tapped to replace the departing Hillary Clinton in the Senate.

The special election pits Democrat Scott Murphy, a venture capitalist, against Republican Jim Tedisco, the New York General Assembly minority leader.

Both national parties are likely to pump resources into the race — but new Republican National Committee Chairman Michael Steele has vowed to compete especially hard in the traditionally conservative district.

Instead of “pumping” resources into the election why don’t they pump it back into the taxpayers pockets??? Just a thought.

A new national poll suggests that most Americans approve of the way Barack Obama is so far handling his job as President of the United States, the second such post-inauguration poll to give the new president rave reviews.

It’s been like 3 days people!  I could run the USA for 3 days and get rave reviews if everyone thought I was the second coming of Jesus.  Just wait until the stimulus package doesn’t get passed, we aren’t all mazillionaires in 2 months, and the housing market still sucks!  Not trying to rain on everyones parade but I am just saying how it is…

Hillary Clinton, Hillary clinton secretary of state

***************BREAKING NEWS**********

The U.S. Senate approved the nomination of Hillary Clinton as secretary of state Wednesday by a vote of 94-2.

The two no votes came from Republican Sens. David Vitter of Louisiana and Jim DeMint of South Carolina.

Do you remember when she wouldn’t concede to Barack Obama’s nomination?  Did she ever end up conceding? 

I bet Hillary is going to have the 2 Senators that voted against her taken care of….if you get my drift!
