Wonkette

Well, what I said when I was asked directly is that I would not have stayed in the church.

Which reminds me to disavow my mother for remaining a Catholic while priests were molesting boys and her Pope was putting out memos telling everyone to keep quiet about it.

I need to write this in my planner.

So she's intolerant when it comes to religion, but perfectly tolerant when it comes to her husband appropriating other women as Kleenex. Got it.

Clinton: "Well, I take offense. I think it's offensive and outrageous. I'm going to express my opinion, others can express theirs. It is part of just, you know, an atmosphere we're in today."

Oooooh, I hate her so very much.

That is all.

Rev. Wright is the single biggest problem facing America today. It is heartening that two patriots like Bill O'Reilly and Hillary Clinton can find common ground on this subject.

Clinton: "Well, I take offense. I think it's offensive and outrageous. I'm going to express my opinion, others can express theirs. It is part of just, you know, an atmosphere we're in today."

you know? that whole atmopshere of freedom of speech thingie? that we are in today?

fuck her.

When she was finished did she light a stuffed donkey on fire? You know, to provide a visualization of her comments for the hearing impaired?

Memo To File: When Democrats start squawking about diversity as a way of reaching America's true potential, don't take that to mean they're above pandering to scared white folk.

Gee...I wonder what Keith O. is going to talk about tonight.

O'Reilly's first question was apparently written by Larry David.

I was hoping for:

O'Reilly: There's a jetstream of bullshit coming out of your mouth.

I'm liking Jeremiah Wright more and more these days. But good god man, shut your pie hole so this evil broad in a pink pantsuit won't ruin everything left that's good and decent about this country.

At the end of that segment I heard "I'm John McCain, and I approve this message."

"I'm John McCain, and I approve this message."

Spas out. Mea culpa.

Where's that crying bald eagle when you need it?

Politicians should stick to the Daily Show, which at least has the virtue of being funny.

Also, I can't deal with scotch unless it's 12+ years, so Glenlivet or Glenfiddich, but no frickin' Glencampbell.

I suppose I'm an elitist.

...I think when they put her name on the screen it had little "R" next to it!

Eat shit and die, Hilz.

"I'm going to let the voters decide." ??? Is Rev. Wright running for president? No? NEXT QUESTION.

I'd pay good money to listen to Rev. Wright. You couldn't pay me enough to listen to these two fools. Jeebus help me if I am forced to listen to those flat A's of HRC for four years.

They all need to STFU.

@Scott-san: Next question? No doubt he'll ask her about her courageous stand against flag-burning.

Hillary
Damn Hillary
Hard-headed haridan from Hell
You're annoying as zits
Like Walnuts with tits
I'm no longer buying what you sell

I was mad that Obama went on Fox. But he went on Chris Wallace's show, and Chris Wallace did once defend Obama and he can at least pose as a journalist.

There is no excuse for going on O'Reilly. None.

Clinton: "Well, I take offense. I think it's offensive and outrageous. I'm going to express my opinion, others can express theirs. It is part of just, you know, an atmosphere we're in today."

The sad fact of the matter is that we don't tolerate enough of Wright's kind of officially unapproved views on controversial issues, contrary to what Democratulacunt has to say. What a pander pussy she is.

@Scott-san: Well, American's did decide. They decided Obama, but she insists on the superdelegates deciding.

It's not easy being a spiritual advisor -- first you have to believe that the most incredible, awesome, powerful being in the world impregnated a poor peasant virgin and she didn't even notice until one of His hench-angels told her (God: "Yeah, Mary looks hot, but doin' her was like throwin' a hot dog into a boxcar.") and then you expect them turn around and get rational when dealing with the real world. No wonder most of them are bitter and crazy.

@AngryBlakGuy: Should have been NC-17

@NoWireHangers: As a hearing impaired commenter, I can say she did not, unfortunately. She did come over to my house, though, and punch me in the face.

I had a vicious rightwing friend forward me this, about Hil being ahead in the popular vote now. Please, someone tell me it's lies?

@Moleman: OMG.

I just read that in the voice of Mike Myers in "So I Married An Axe Murderer".

It was wonderful.

She loves Wright most for keeping the media busy while she panders on Orally to voters that will abandon her en masse come November.

Hillary, if you're reading this, and I know you are 'cuz you never miss a wonkette post or a comment: F3RK YOU B!TCH for going on Fox News and and validating Republicans' racist fear of the angry black man.

I am so pissed right now I want to punch a Hillary supporter in the face. Good thing my mom is 200 miles away.

Please voters, abandon her NOW! Pretty please...

"I'm going to let the voters decide."

With Mark Penn gone, a new Clinton strategy?

@moondancer: She panders voters orally? Is that what they're calling it these days?

@FloraWay: You got a problem with the super-dels picking the candidate? It's the system that gave us Mondale and Dukakis, and that worked out real well, didn't it?

Dear Hillary,

Remember when we latte-sipping progressive liberals used to love you? You were so outspoken and smart and your own woman. And yeah, you didn't really do much except NAFTA and fucking over health care, but we loved you just the same. You reminded us of our bisexual divorced mothers. And the Republicans hated you, which made us love you all the more. We used to compare you to Eleanor Roosevelt instead of Tracy Flick.

Those days are gone forever. Now when your name comes up in word association we all say CUNT. Or occasionally SINBAD. But mostly CUNTFACE. And HILLARY CUNTON. And DEMOCRATULACUNT. And CUNTY MCCUNTERSTEIN.

Oh, but at least the Republicans love you now! Hate to break the bad news, babe, but they're playing you. Just like your husband was. We didn't want to say anything at the time, but we slept with him. All of us. It was mediocre.

Enjoy your divorce and anonymous slide into Geraldine-Ferraro-dom, cunt.

O'Reilly: "Can you believe this Rev. Wright guy? Can you believe this guy?"

Hillary: "Well, I'm going to leave it up to voters to decide."

Really Hillary, you're not going to say it's a ridiculous faux-outrage story that's only distracting us from serious Iraq/economy/environment issues and slandering a person by association? It's for the voters to decide, you say? OK, good to know I can decide not to vote for you on issues like, say, your husband not keeping his dick in his pants, OK Hillz.

"You know" Hillary, you are such a disingenuous witch that I can't stand even seeing your face on my television anymore.

@Walden3: It's true only if you count Florida and Michigan (where Obama was not on the ballot). In other words, it follows the Clintonista mantra of "by any means necessary".

FAT COW, FAT COW, FAT COW!

Look, Wright's "the white government created the AIDS virus to commit genocide against the blacks" theory is poisonous race-baiting trash. When Obama denounces it, he's praised, but when Hillary denounces it she's somehow "validating Republicans' racist fear of the angry black man?" All in all, for the attacks she could have launched over this, I think it was a restrained response, even if it was on loofah's show.

did Bill-O show Big Hill his luffa thingy?

@sirconradignatiusduck:

I'd contend that Obama was first praised for his speech explaining Wright's remarks. They did still kiss his ass when he finally threw him under the bus (although he didn't really lay into him and the media just took the harshest quotes they could). But, I'd also say that of all people, Hillary should know what kind of issues will make Republicans win and what kind of issues make Democrats win. If she cared more about the party than herself (and I'm not saying any politician does), she'd take the high road on this one.

@sirconradignatiusduck: To what end? None of O'Reily's bunch are going to vote for her anyway - hell, McCain is too lefty for them.

She should have dismissed the whole matter as moronic and let it go at that.

Going on the OhReally show is sleeping with the enemy. She'll have Rush Limbaugh doing her warm-up speeches next.

@ronaldpagan: Thanks you for calling her a cunt. I really wanted to, as it's the first word that comes to mind when I see or hear that hideous twat, but I was too big a pussy.
Cunty cunt cunt cunt. Fun!

@ronaldpagan: om dear, maybe it is the late afternoon tiredness setting in, but I cannot stop laughing at this post. Nicely done.

@WideStanceRomancer: How about FAT COW CUNT!?

There. I don't feel totally better, but that IS fun.

@NinedyGiulieleven: She fell off the "high road" back in January. She forgot what it looks like and is never getting back on it.

RonaldPagan's post has it right- a total fucking bulls-eye that I think should be forwarded to her crappy campaign.

I have worked on presidential campaigns ever since I hit voting age. If Clinton somehow wins this thing, I won't be able to work for her. She has already made it quite clear how little she thinks of "activist Democrats" like myself, and now she is doing the worst kind of pandering. She can take her offense and outrage and shove them up her pantsuit.

Then she can take her pantsuit and shove it up her ass.

@ronaldpagan:
Nice.

First the brown people, then the regular news, then the AP, now the snarks. Does no one love Hillary?

I think her answers, from what we can see now, are pretty fair. All she said was that she's commented on it before, and it's up to everyone to decide what the whole Rev. Wright thing means to them. What was she supposed to say, really? "Told ya, America!!! HAHA! How ya like me now?!!"

and @marSF, you know the stick up Hillary's ass leaves no room for polyester blend.

then O'Rilly and hill can clap clap point point together

O'Reilly's second question:

"And what about this airline food? Can you believe that? How can they even call it food. And why do they always have a fish dish on airlines? Is there anyone that doesn't know that you never order the fish? I mean, what about that?"

@TheMac: C'mon--you know better than that. Here answer was the same kind of BS wink-wink that she gave when asked whether she thought Barry was a Muslim: "Well, he SAYS he isn't..." In other words, "Not only does he wipe his ass with the American flag and assemble IEDs in his basement, he's not even man enough to ADMIT it!"

Saying "I take offense. I think it's offensive and outrageous. I'm going to express my opinion, others can express theirs" on O'Loofa's show is the same as saying "I heard Barack Osama was soul-kissing Imam Wright while they both pissed on a painting of Jesus the other night, because, you know, I guess that's how their kind express themselves."

@FloraWay: Totally with you on this. This is why I really can't stand her. To this day, she remains a Goldwater girl.

@sirconradignatiusduck: I didn't like Obama's denunciation either, but it was nowhere near Hillary's level of smugness. And he didn't make it out to be a serious, campaign-deciding issue. She's cuntinuing to tear apart this cuntry, and she should be held accuntable for her shamelessness by the remaining voters. It's cathartic! Everyone try it!

@demtard: Yeah, I started her autobiography and it's obvious that she's always been an opportunist. (I couldn't finish it.)

@edgydrifter: Well, yeah. To all of that. But am I also supposed to believe that Barack Obama took personal and spiritual advice from Rev. Wright for decades, and is now shocked (shocked, I tell you!) at everything he's saying now?

Everything in politics is with a fucking wink and a nod. I'm saying that, on the scale of obnoxious things she could've said to dig the knife in deep, she was pretty civil. She could've, I dunno, given an 18-hour speech on race, and said absolutely nothing. What would have been a realistic alternative? The truth is, being for Obama has now become being vehemently anti-Hillary.

If Obama was asked whether Hillary was a lesbian, and his response was "Well, she SAYS she isn't..." I would laugh. Yet she's a certifiable cunt-muffin for suggesting an equally ridiculous thing about him. I could personally care less about what the truth is, if someone is dumb enough to take anything said at this point at face value, they should immediately lose the right to vote.

The snark is definitely dead...that is until President Hope McDreamerson fucks up somehow.

"Well, I'm going to leave it up to voters to decide."

I was not under the impression that Reverend Wright was running for office. In what way, as a voter, could I express my negative opinion about Wright's comments at the ballot box?

Such a puzzle...

Barack Obama: "I am outraged by the comments" . . . "His comments were not only divisive and destructive, I believe they end up giving comfort to those who prey on hate."

Hillary Clinton: "Well, I take offense. I think it's offensive and outrageous."

"Well, what I said when I was asked directly is that I would not have stayed in the church."

'I would have left the church immediately, just as I left Dr. Rev. Martin Luther King's church, stopping to shake his hand on my way out the door, and perhaps mumbling something about "nice sermon", just to be polite. Plus, I put a $20 in the collection plate because, you know, no one can accuse me of not being hep to the problems of poor working class Americans. '

I'M a voter, haven't voted yet, still get to decide! And I like Hillary more than you folks! I'm gonna vote for her! Nyah nyah nyah!!!

@ronaldpagan: Are you even OLD ENOUGH to vote?

You don't sound like you are.

@ronaldpagan: Totally agree until you get to all that c*nt business. It really detracts from your otherwise coherent points.

But otherwise, hells yeah. I actually used to like Clinton for saying she wouldn't be baking cookies, etc. Now I'm just embarrassed by her, and pissed that she's so intent on electing John McCain.

@zyxkonrad: You got me! I'm 9-year-old Malia Obama! And they say Hillary pimps her kids out...

@ronaldpagan: "Cunty McCunterstein?" I thought that was McCain's wife.

@RubyJi: Most of Wonkette is on board with this opinion, so it's not really intended as a life-altering manifesto. And look, I'm a straight talker. I'm like John McCain. I call a spade a spade. I call a cunt a cunt a cunt. (John McCain also calls Barack Obama a "spade", but that is an embarrassing story for another day.)
