Hillary Opens Mouth and Inserts Foot (again)

Hillary Clinton, in a crude attempt to justify her continued candidacy for the Democratic nomination, used Robert Kennedy's assassination in June 1968 as an example of why she has not dropped out. click here

Is she so desperate, or so stupid, as to think that the American people won't see through her statement and be rightfully appalled by it? Thank you Hillary, for hanging in there in case Barack Obama is assassinated, like RKF was, so the Democratic party will have a live candidate to fall back upon. How thoughtful of you to anticipate political violence of the worst kind. How small-minded. How grotesque and self-serving. How easy to take the low road and position yourself as the beneficiary of someone else's death.

Beyond the indignation which will come crashing down upon her for her statement from citizens of the USA, imagine the reaction of the rest of the world. Will we wake up tomorrow and find our standing around the world in any way diminished by what she has said? Unfortunately, yes. For Hillary, as a U.S. senator, presidential candidate, and former first lady, occupies a unique place, and thereby represents the USA to the world in a unique way. This requires her to be uniquely careful about what she says. She has failed the USA and our great country will pay the price.

Hillary, try to find your moral compass. Then, change its setting from pointing towards you and your ego, and take your carpetbag back to New York.
