Related: About this forumHillary's Ron Burgundy Moment
And I'm Ron Burgundy.
Go fuck yourself, San Diego.
What in the name...
No!
Nobody talks about my city that way! Ron Burgundy's ass is grass!
Nice work, everyone. Sharp broadcast. Really good. Everyone on the floor as well. Really a lot of hustle. I liked it.
Dump out! Dump out!
Hello, Edward.
Ron, I've got to fire you.
I've got to fire you.
Bing, bong, bong. You're fired, Ed.
Do you even know what you just said?
Great Odin's raven!
Are you happy, Ron?
Veronica. She put that in the Teleprompter.
You're probably right, but this is bad, Ron. Real bad. My hands are tied. I...I gotta fire you.
Ed, let's hold on. Let's count to 10. That's a rash decision. Is this about something else?
Ed, there's very angry San Diego-ites.
San Diego-ins. San Diego-uns.
San Dieg-ons.
San Diegans.
San Diegans out in front of the station.
They want Ron's blood.
They want to hurt you.
Why did you say that? Why? Why, Ron? Why? You're my hero, Ron.
Garth, I...
And you come out with stink like that poop! You poop mouth! Get all the poop out of your mouth!
If I were to give you money out of my wallet, would that ease the pain?
I hate you, Ron Burgundy! I hate you!
Ron? Ron! I never wanted it to be like this.
I can't believe you did this to me! Are you happy?
No, Ron, I'm not! It was supposed to be a joke. I mean, it's still kind of funny.
But it's not.
I have nothing left! Nothing! I've been reduced to rubble!
Don't you know I would never say the word fuck? I would never fucking ever fucking say that! Ever!

I have no idea what this is ? It just sounds like some crazy stream of consciousness.

The prerequisite is seeing the movie "Anchorman." Then it makes perfect sense.

Just terrible.
But typical.
It seems like Mrs. Clinton misspeaks a lot.

Some of the commentor seem to know what the hell you are talking about , but as for me, it just sounds like you need to get a long rest because this is nuts.

quite understanding that fact. Saying Nancy Reagan was a champion of the early AIDS crisis is like Ron Burgundy, fictional San Diego anchorman, saying 'Fuck you San Diego' live on the air.

The people who are into the movie know the exact point of my post, and for everyone else, I agree, it probably "sounds like some crazy stream of consciousness."
The point is that many of us can't believe that SHE believed what she said, that she wrote it (or read what someone else wrote), and delivered it with a straight face and no sense of irony.
