Hillary Clinton: Master of Disguise, Diplomacy


Lest you need proof of Secretary of State Hillary Clinton's awe-inspiring prowess in the realm of international diplomacy, look no further than her ability to morph into any figure that circumstances require. While in Chile, Clinton has transformed herself into a miniature Chilean angel person, probably, we assume, because she wanted to get a firsthand look at the earthquake's devastation without being mobbed by adoring fans. President Michelle Bachelet also transformed into a miniature Chilean angel person, but it wasn't as impressive because she's already Chilean.

1. I'll keep this short. Who knew Chilean Pres. Michelle Bachelet was taller than Secretary Clinton?
That surprises me!

3. Ginny's in da house.
I happen to have her tonight but most of the time she's with my mom and dad who need her love more than I do, so I share.

They're in their 80's and living out their years at home after we almost lost dad through all kinds of hospital hell last year.

Now I'm keeping fish and coral in a saltwater aquarium.

They're beautiful and very calming! These are some of the corals:

6. You're a good son, sharing Ginny.
I'm sure that she has enough love for all of you. Those corals are beautiful, and yes, aquariums are very calming.

Here's hoping that your dad is well.

Take care!!!

13. If it really was on the NYT
I did look at the NYT several times yesterday, and there was a photo of both women, looking very concerned and serious as appropriate for the devastation.

16. you must have me mixed up with someone else
thats not my technique at all.

Now, if those two women that were mislabeled were white women of average height, dressed in the average middle/upper class business style, it wouldn't be funny at all, would it.

yes, I may be a grouch, but making fun of people because of what they 'look' like just doesn't strike me as funny. Maybe if I saw this when I was 12 it would have.

If it's the angel costumes that was the leader for the laughter, yes, than that is funny.

33. That's what happens with the uber PC police.
Their sense of humor is non existent. No one was making fun of the ladies in the pic.

12. Uhm - this was not the picture that was on the NYT any time I pulled it up yesterday
New York magazine is often edgy, but here it is not clear what they are doing. Was the NYT site hacked at some point yesterday?

25. The Times made a mistake and it was funny, but it wasn't a big deal.
Edited on Thu Mar-04-10 10:02 PM by Beacool
People here, as usual, take themselves way too seriously. Liberals and right wingers, always so dogmatic............

The PC police is at it again, no one is laughing at the ladies. They are laughing at the Times' mistake and the thought of Michelle Bachelet and Hillary dressed as angels during their press conference.

28. She and Michelle are going to wave their wands and put everything back in order.
Like Samantha used to do when she twitched her nose in Bewitched.

:D

Come to think of it, wouldn't it be great to have such powers?

She and Bubba are reputed to be reptoids, you know. Shape-shifting is old hat for them.

34. I've seen a few of the David Icke/Alex Jones ones, Nutso but not so entertaining.
Edited on Fri Mar-05-10 02:03 AM by burning rain
If there are any really funny such videos you've seen, lemme know, wouldja? I can't say it surprises me that some wankers--usually but not always conservatives--have a psychological need to believe that those who get the better of them are not mere humans: it allows them to think of themselves as first-rate human beings beaten by a superhuman race rather than stupid, ignorant, and lazy people outdone by smart, studious, and hard-working fellow humans. Wow, that's pretty nasty, but then, I don't go for that "post-partisan" kumbaya baloney that's had an unfortunate vogue of late.
