Anyone watching HilLIARy's press conference on MSNBC?
She cackled away the questions about Sniper fire... "It was a mistake!" "Lighten up guys." Series :eyes:

I wish I could laugh/cackle with you, Mrs. Clinton, but I can't.

3. I thought she said that she was joking
Edited on Tue Mar-25-08 02:19 PM by Drachasor
(admittedly I am only half paying attention to it).

The most awkward thing about it was the sheer and utter silence from the Press while she laughed.

43. She looked ANYTHING but "presidential" ...
... unless we accept the detestible standard of the last 7 years. Her "lighten up" retort is in the same category as Cheney's "So?" Disconnected. Dishonest. Arrogant. Without integrity.

8. Believe me, the GOP won't laugh about it--she can't win the general election!
This is pure madness for her to stay in the race.

She didn't have a chance in the GE before the sniper lie (and her other resume lies), but now there is zero chance. She's going against McCain, a REAL hero who REALLY suffered sniper fire. And here's Hillary Clinton, reducing the experience to a cheap campaign trick. It not only insults McCain, it insults ALL soldiers who have risked their lives in the face of sniper fire.

She must get out now, before she destroys our chances to win this election.

Unfortunately for them, most Americans don't look at it like that.

15. I'm usually not a doomsayer about gaffes, but the way she's handling this looks bad
really bad.

I'd hate to see her go down for good on something stupid like this, but maybe it'll get her team thinking of how to exit gracefully rather than how to destroy the party.

54. actually, perjury is only if you lie under oath
I do think that her Tuzla narrative was deliberately manufactured with the intent to mislead, but I don't think she has actually committed a crime.

That was when she lost me for good.

This is obviously her strategy of dealing with tough questions. Pretend they're just jokes.

32. She was defensive, irritable, evasive, & snide. Just like always.
That sense of entitlement - and rage that someone is daring to interrupt her coronation - is really taking a toll.

How those two still have the respect and command of U.S. combat soldiers is beyond me.

I can't accept her total disregard for the very REAL race issues in this country!

She's crapping all over the first honest discussion this country has ever had about racial injustice.

Shame on her.
