First off, with yet another hat tip to RHOG, is the worst sports analogy ever.
“Since all political commentary is powered by sports analogies, let’s take football here. The Clinton team is playing as if this will be decided on points. But in fact, it will be decided by judges, some of them empires, some of them representatives of the crowd, some of them big donors to the stadium. And those judges are terrified of pissing off their loyal fan base. The strategy here should be making the loyal fan base like you, not trying to pummel the other team.”
What? Empires? It’s umpire you jackass, and they aren’t in football (American football or soccer), they are in baseball. Not decided by points? Has this guy ever watched even one game of football… ever? Highlights even? Does this guy get ESPN? And why would you need to make the LOYAL fan base like you? I’m a Dolphins fan even though they have sucked for years.
Moving on….
Obama’s military adviser is anti-semitic.
Clinton says she “misspoke” when she lied through her teeth about her trip to Bosnia in ’96. Hat tip Crush Liberalism.
“She was quick to answer, jumping in before I was fully finished with the question. Here’s her response in its entirety:
“Now let me tell you what I can remember, OK — because what I was told was that we had to land a certain way and move quickly because of the threat of sniper fire. So I misspoke — I didn’t say that in my book or other times but if I said something that made it seem as though there was actual fire — that’s not what I was told. I was told we had to land a certain way, we had to have our bulletproof stuff on because of the threat of sniper fire. I was also told that the greeting ceremony had been moved away from the tarmac but that there was this 8-year-old girl and I said well, I, I can’t, I can’t rush by her, I’ve got to at least greet her — so I greeted her, I took her stuff and then I left, Now that’s my memory of it.
I followed-up, noting that the episode has raised questions about her credibility on foreign policy. She responded:
“No, I don’t, Good grief, I went to 80 countries, you know. I gave contemporaneous accounts, I wrote about a lot of this in my book. you know, I think that, a minor blip, you know, if I said something that, you know, I say a lot of things — millions of words a day — so if I misspoke, that was just a misstatement.”
I like how she even tries to drum up sympathy and distract you by throwing in that bit about the 8-year girl (seen in the video) still being there after the ceremony had been moved.
On an unrelated note, I don’t know when I’ll do another “Customize your PC” post. Maybe this weekend if I can think of something else to do. If you have a suggestion, please, please post it in the comments or send me a message.
