1. funny stuff
did you notice the headline at the bottom? "Hillary slams Obama and McCain over their positions on gas tax holiday" I thought Hillary was on board with McCain's gas tax holiday and even if she isn't, then she is against it and on the same side as Obama? How many positions can there be? She can't slam both of them and have a coherent position. Either you are for it or against it!

15. Yeah, well. Being an Obama supporter I've gotta point out that
if somebody caught me on some days, I have my coffee maker on the same place on the counter where it's sat for the last ten years, and I still manage to push the wrong button now and then. Sometimes I forget to put the basket in place before adding the water causing the coffee to spray all over the kitchen. Or I'll put the mug on the counter upside down, which makes for lots of fun when I go to pour the coffee. And I've gotten bewildered by the different self-serve machines in different shops. So, my reaction when I saw this was, "hey, she has to stop and figure things out just like I do." Kinda makes her seem like just one of the regular folks. Is it news? Not hardly.

23. It's just an example of "testicular fortitude" at the latte machine
and “Gucci-wearing, latte-drinking, self-centered, egotistical people that have damaged our lifestyle,” as her supporter Paul Gipson pointed out as she is videoed getting a vanilla latte.

24. Yeah, petty, but humanizing. I have a PhD in physics and have still been
flustered by the occasional convenience store coffee machine.

9. It just shows she has "testicular fortitude.”
HILLARY'S 'TESTICULAR FORTITUDE'


While defending Bill Clinton’s role in the passage of NAFTA, Paul Gipson, president of a steelworkers local, said that union members need to look forward, and support a leader who can work to amend and improve provisions in the trade agreement.

“I truly believe that that’s going to take an individual that has testicular fortitude,” he said. “That’s exactly right. That’s what we gotta have.”

Clinton, standing behind Gipson, smiled sheepishly before breaking into a nervous laugh. Gipson continued by slamming unnamed “Gucci-wearing, latte-drinking, self-centered, egotistical people that have damaged our lifestyle,” before endorsing and introducing Clinton.


She had just come from the Gas Station to this event

13. That's pretty much what I look like getting coffee
except I don't have theme music.

I just want to know why it is that whenever I drink a latte, somebody out there is getting ready to (OMG) disapprove. When's a politician going to tell them where to stick it? Oh that's right, Obama did... sort of.

Election year turns the whole populace into a bunch of petty idiots. Or are we that way normally? I can't tell anymore.

14. Why isn't this being played repeatedly in the MSM showing how "out of touch"
she "really" is like the stupid bowling by Obama clip?

16. Move along
I'm no Hillary-ite, but if I had a dollar for every time I couldn't figure out how some vending machine worked, I could retire.

I'll cut her some slack here. Those machines are all different and even if you do know how to work them, half the time they don't work right.

21. If this was Obama, this clip would be running on a continuous loop
with the headline, "Is Obama Out of Touch? Is this the End of his Campaign?"

:puke:

The Hillbots would be jumping off the rafters.

27. Who cares
If my Senator was wasting time making coffee every day I'd tell him/her to let a staffer do it and actually make some changes.
