So where are they asking about Hillary!’s gravitas?

Guess it doesn’t matter all that much.

Exactly. But now we have blogs like this one to put enough pressure on MSM to at least acknowledge the story.

This is not her first foreign policy snafu. I remember Hillary speaking in October about Iran and the fact that “we don’t really understand how the Iranian government works.” She was in the White House for 8 years and has been a U.S. Senator for 8 years and she has no idea how the Iranian government work?

The MSM are such God-damned lap dogs. It’s pathetic. There’s hardly a one of them that ain’t worms.

I’m officially replacing all my Lawyer jokes with Reporter jokes. Well, maybe not the shark ones. Or I could replace “shark” with “weasel.”

Bring on the Primaries…

I’m looking forward to next Wednesday. Aren’t you? Sure you are because that is the day when both the Iowa Caucuses (doesn’t the word ‘caucus’ have sort of a hive-ish connotation to it?) and the New Hampshire Primaries will be…

Among all the candidates, is she alone in her ignorance of the enemy?

All are woefully ignorant but the republicans at least know that somebodies butt needs kicking and not licking.

What is a big concern of mine is how many “Pentagon type Mr. Islam aides” are waiting in the wings or are already whispering taqiyya in their ears. But it would be “racist” to investigate this I am sure.

Since “his party is on the ballot,” I think that I’m going to vote for Reagan. Oh, I know, he was a 2 termer, but it doesn’t matter – “his party is on the ballot.”

Gravitas.

It was the MSM’s sole reason for hammering Bush again ad again for mispronouncing Musharaff.

Again and again with the gravitas, over and over. Rush had a compilation of dozens of talking boobs saying over and over again “gravitas”.

It was amazing that they all decided on using that word, all at the same time. Just a coincidence, I’m sure.

So where are they asking about Hillary!’s gravitas?

Guess it doesn’t matter all that much.

Everyone pray for her to make it in the primaries. She’s easier to beat than Obama. Of course, that all depends on who’s opposite, from this side.

The problem with this is…Iowans don’t care about it, National Security is far too low on their list of priorities for POTUS. Hillary will get a pass with the help of her minions, including George Step-on-all-of-us. But it will come around and she will slip up, I just hope it’s when more people are paying attention and the lights are much brighter.

Patience folks…

Good work, Bryan, in picking this up and making it almost impossible for MSM to ignore

Almost impossible, indeed. Almost.

This is, of course, assuming that the word ‘gravitas’ doesn’t have something to do with ‘gravy’ and ‘tatas.’

Hillary has gravitas.

You’re going have to explain that one Benrand.

Hillary Clinton has seven years experience in the US Senate. She’s not held any key positions on international affairs committees or commissions. There is nothing in her background to suggest she is has executive leadership potential. Her one foray in public policy making was a complete and utter failure (not to mention illegal in the way she went about doing it).

John Edwards has just about as much “gravitas” because he has six years in the Senate and a prior presidential run behind him. So, unless you are talking about Hillary’s ample caboose, I’d sure be interested in knowing why you think she’s got gravitas.

To paraphrase Reagan, it’s not that Hillary doesn’t have a vast and deep knowledge– it’s just that she know’s so much that isn’t so.

The only thing vast and deep about the Clinton machine is its tendency to lie and toss out vast and deep quantities of BS.

They’ll trot out their army of spinners to lie through their teeth to the American people, just like they did for 8 years when they had power.

Remember when Bush stumbled on the gotcha question about the PM of India back in 2000? We never heard the end of it.

JammieWearingFool on January 2, 2008 at 10:07 AM

Or how about when Bush said “Mandela’s dead”, in the context that those who are like Mandela in Iraq have been killed? The LA Times is still reporting it like Bush thought Nelson Mandela is dead.

Some question her gravitas on issues of importance.

Or maybe but not really, but Bush didn’t have gravitas.

Hillary has gravitas.

It took three drones from ABC to report this? Or did it take three to figure out how to make this look best for Mrs. Gravitas…
