Videos: Bill says he can’t make Hillary “younger, taller, male”
posted at 1:30 pm on January 7, 2008 by Bryan
Or dynamic, interesting, less menacing or palatable. Like Allah says, all this Clinton jujitsu is calculated to the end. In this case, Bill edges up to mentioning a fourth variable that might be working in Obama’s favor but doesn’t go there. Mentally, surely some in the crowd did though.
*Sorry about the sync on the clip.

You can’t make her do what, Bill?
pedestrian on January 7, 2008 at 1:34 PM
…or more electable…
common sensineer on January 7, 2008 at 1:34 PM
But is she LIKEABLE!?!?

Bill Clinton “I cant make Hillary less shrill, More likable or mor competent. You have to take her as she is. Its called marrage and its for freaking EVER !”
William Amos on January 7, 2008 at 1:35 PM
Spade work? :::snicker:::
baldilocks on January 7, 2008 at 1:35 PM
Okay, so, where’s the NOW crowd?
If a republican had said this, they are all we would be hearing from.
Dave R. on January 7, 2008 at 1:36 PM
like “sorry” makes it better.
i’m dissapointed, bryan.
jummy on January 7, 2008 at 1:38 PM
That would be “Blacker”. Masterfully done, Billy Jeff.

Hmmm…flank steak! Only a cow can make it that tasty. Marinating it does the trick, though. Make mine medium rare…no crying, please.

SPADEWORK??? LOLOL Way to try to connect with the little people, Hil.
hoosiermama on January 7, 2008 at 1:40 PM
I doubt, if given the chance, slick willie would change her into a man. Don’t believe his boat floats that way. But who knows this does seem to be the season of “change”.
SPIFF1669 on January 7, 2008 at 1:41 PM
“SPADE WORK”??!!!!
i suppose it’s a real word. i’m not going to go all glen “poof” ellesberg on her over it. but “spadework“?
jummy on January 7, 2008 at 1:43 PM
It’s always about Bill.
Spirit of 1776 on January 7, 2008 at 1:43 PM
The main thing Bill can’t seem to do is improve her poll numbers.
darii on January 7, 2008 at 1:44 PM
He can make her male…. I think there’s an operation for that.
Maxx on January 7, 2008 at 1:44 PM
But, can he make her human? Didn’t think so.
Dave from Flint on January 7, 2008 at 1:45 PM
It’ll be interesting to see if the Clinton marriage survives if Hillary’s presidential ambitions are not realized.
AZCoyote on January 7, 2008 at 1:45 PM
Bill Clinton “I cant make Hillary the President you have to annoint her as your Queen Bee so be good little democratic drones and do what the queen mother wants”
William Amos on January 7, 2008 at 1:45 PM
Is Bill changing sides…
twiggman on January 7, 2008 at 1:46 PM
Bill: “There’s a lot of things I can’t do.”
yeah like come across as anything but a shyster.

Nice strong gestures, Hill. Give that woman a baton and let her conduct an orchestra. Of course, since she wants to remake America into her socialist image, starting with health care, conducting an orchestra would probably not be enough to satisfy her desire to control others.
Bigfoot on January 7, 2008 at 1:52 PM
Making her male would probably make her more attractive.
sburg57 on January 7, 2008 at 1:53 PM
Was it bad sync in that clip?
I just thought it was an audition tape for a really bad Japanese monster flick.
SouthernPride on January 7, 2008 at 1:54 PM
Wait…Hillary is not a man? I’m confused…
Rick on January 7, 2008 at 1:56 PM
though i’m not going to give her the glen “poof” treatment on this – today – i have no problem with anyone else doing it.

Well, when you look at this picture: http://shrinkster.com/tq2

Did Hillary really call Obama a “spade” at 00:23?
gridlock2 on January 7, 2008 at 2:03 PM
But, can she make Hillary a Capitalist?
FLcapitalistthug on January 7, 2008 at 2:04 PM
He, sorry…these Clinton cyborgs all sound the same.
FLcapitalistthug on January 7, 2008 at 2:04 PM
I think Bill might actually want Hillary to fail. What guy (especially one with Clinton’s ego) wants to risk being upstaged by his wife? This isn’t the first time we’ve seen Bill being passive/aggressive towards Hillary. Isn’t he really saying here that he can’t make Hillary be Bill Clinton, the superior Clinton (in his view), and that’s why her campaign is in so much trouble?
AZCoyote on January 7, 2008 at 2:05 PM
In a better world, universal health insurance would cover her female to male surgery. That’s why Madeline Albright could only go half way.
GO HILLARY!
JiangxiDad on January 7, 2008 at 2:07 PM
WTF?!!! Spade work! What you talkin bout Hillary?
sonnyspats1 on January 7, 2008 at 2:08 PM
Hmm, so then which one is the man, and which one is the woman? And did we already have the first black woman president in the 90s, and not realize it?
Rick on January 7, 2008 at 2:08 PM
I’ve suspected this for a while. What else explains Dick Morris’ friendship with Bill, and hatred for Hillary? Is Bill getting her back for something?
JiangxiDad on January 7, 2008 at 2:09 PM
Why are Austin Powers quotes popping up in my brain?

Post that comment over on a dem site, if they’ll let you.
Better question. WTF are black people hitching their wagons to the Dem party for??
JiangxiDad on January 7, 2008 at 2:11 PM
There, there, Bill…divorce can make it possible for you to find your younger, taller male.
James on January 7, 2008 at 2:12 PM
This is funny stuff. The downward spiral that Shrillary is embarking upon is going to be the stuff of HA legend. Have fun in Chicago, or Little Rock, or New York, or wherever it is you’re from…
FLcapitalistthug on January 7, 2008 at 2:13 PM
NEVER AGAIN WILL WE HAVE THOSE BACK ALLEY GENDER RE-ASSIGNMENT SURGERIES!!
Go HILLARY!!
JiangxiDad on January 7, 2008 at 2:13 PM
Good point, but I think Bill would love nothing more than to reside at the White House again. He thinks he’s the smarter of the two, and that he can manipulate her – in essence, he’d be in the spotlight as the first man (or whatever the hell he’d be), and pulling the strings.
Rick on January 7, 2008 at 2:14 PM
Can he make her most honest?
that would probably work just fine.
Richard Bushnell on January 7, 2008 at 2:14 PM

Why would he do that, or even want to do that? Keep in mind that we’re talking about Bill Clinton here.
Rick on January 7, 2008 at 2:17 PM
Not only can he not make her younger, he can’t make her better looking either. LOL
trinitytim on January 7, 2008 at 2:19 PM
So that’s what happened to Janet Reno!!

“I’m really sorry I can’t turn Hilary into a young, tall, hot Dutch model, like Tzetzes’ fiancee. ‘Cause that would be hot.”
Tzetzes on January 7, 2008 at 2:21 PM
Did Obama imply Hillary’s the back end of a dump truck? Maybe we should start calling her “Mack.”
NNtrancer on January 7, 2008 at 2:25 PM
As for Bill, at least he could buy her a blue dress. Of course, he might not be able to make her wear it.

Even NBC slammed him on this one. I believe one of the comments was “He can make her single”
Les in NC on January 7, 2008 at 2:39 PM
Tzetzes, a comment like that almost screams for photo evidence.
Am I right?
Browncoatone on January 7, 2008 at 2:39 PM
Hillary Clinton, Liberal. A woman barely alive. Gentlemen, we can rebuild her. We have the technology.
Torch on January 7, 2008 at 2:42 PM
Are you kidden mee! Spade work! Sharpton will be picketing her offices in New Hampshire on election day, no? Why not?
Why not some Imusgate for Hillary? Doesn’t an obvious injection of race by a white woman deserve Sharptonization.
Bill may not be able to make Hill male but you can rest assured that her pee pee envy has caused her to curse her Dads use of an X chromosome in her manufacture, over.and.over.
Perhaps it was resentment that sent her over to the dark side, I’m you Father, No,no,nooooo.
Speakup on January 7, 2008 at 2:45 PM
Billy Clinton is becoming the Billy Carter of this family. He would never so anything useful like brew beer, though.
Hening on January 7, 2008 at 2:46 PM
He should know…he’s already tried to make her a fat brunette who likes cigars and that didn’t work.
Now the media will go to work to make her Joan of Arc.
Hillary, go for the BOTOX like flip-floppin’ Kerry did!
wildweasel on January 7, 2008 at 2:46 PM
Bill says he can’t make Hillary “younger, taller, male”
True Billy, you can’t make her younger or taller. But she’ll always be more of a man than you are.
realitycheck on January 7, 2008 at 2:51 PM
Well, John McCain is leading in New Hampshire, and he’s 72 and short.
SoulGlo on January 7, 2008 at 2:55 PM
Can’t make her lose the smear tactics, can’t make her answer an actual question, can’t make her commander-in-chief material, and — thank God — you can’t make her President, Bill!
eucher on January 7, 2008 at 2:57 PM
I thought Hillary was already male.
NoFanofLibs on January 7, 2008 at 2:57 PM
lol!
jummy on January 7, 2008 at 3:01 PM
Inevitable, to pull out and endorse her rival and hope for a VP nod.
koolbrease on January 7, 2008 at 3:02 PM
So let me get this straight.
We’ve got two people campaigning full time for one candidate.
One is former President and most popular democrat in a long time. I’m going to make a crazy assumption and say that he is drawing larger crowds than his wife during the campaign.
The other is the actual candidate who admits being tired and starts to cry when the pressure is getting to her (someone please tell me why I want this person making decisions during a time of war?).
Popularity can take you pretty far (it got her elected to congress without any experience), but I believe that people on both sides view this election as very personal and important.
I think she’s done.
Rogue Traveler on January 7, 2008 at 3:02 PM
Yeah Tzetzes, hook it up
FLcapitalistthug on January 7, 2008 at 3:05 PM
I don’t know… he seems much less energetic than usual, and my first thought was that it must be difficult at times to score some blow on the campaign trail…
Ahh… you beat me to it!
ErikTheRed on January 7, 2008 at 3:07 PM
Eight years younger than me (I’m 32) and two inches taller. Bright eyes, soft hair, perfect curves and seductive expression. And, while she looks like a model, she’s actually a brilliant Byzantinist. (We met at Oxford.)
I passed up earlier chances to marry; this one was well worth the wait!
Tzetzes on January 7, 2008 at 3:08 PM
I’ve got one of her partying with Allah.
Tzetzes on January 7, 2008 at 3:09 PM
It’s not her age, stature, or gender that’s the liability here – it’s her politics, her personality, her dishonesty, etc…
Dork B. on January 7, 2008 at 3:10 PM
Tzetzes – no thanks if there’s a burqa involved…haha…
FLcapitalistthug on January 7, 2008 at 3:13 PM

Hillary “This is no ways fair. It’s my turn and I deserve it”.

Yes, Hillary is tanking, that is not good news because the media is now in an ecstatic orgy of PC love for Obama, who’s even a bigger inexperienced fraud than she is.
Conservatives need to see the bigger battle than is forming with the MSM – Obama-mania. This may force a McCain candidacy onto us, with all the “experience” issues.
McCain is as RINO as they come, and true conservatives hate his guts. He is a political hack, leftish on many issues, a Democratic party buttkisser of the worst kind, insincere and untrustworthy on immigration and free-speech issues, and a Global Warming scamster. I won’t mention the “Keating Five” issue, but the MSM sure as hell will. And what about all the recent baldfaced lies about his non-”Amnesty” Amnesty bill?
McCain is the Bob Dole of this election cycle, and remember – a younger, more attractive (albeit blazingly inexperienced) candidate simply cleaned Dole’s ancient RINO clock. In 1996, WWII was almost as far in the past as the fading 1960′s Vietnam War will be at the end of this next presidential term. To most under-40 voters, Vietnam is now a growing tourist attraction, not My Lai or Khe Sang.
Dole got absolutely no traction from his magnificent wartime heroism versus a draft dodging younger man with no visible heroism of any kind and already a reputation for lying and groping women. It was pathetic.
Question – will Obama’s wife be running in 2024?
TexasJew on January 7, 2008 at 3:53 PM
Just make her GO AWAY
Labamigo on January 7, 2008 at 3:56 PM
If you look closely at Bill when he made those comments about Hillary,(younger,taller,etc) they probably would have seen a few tears there….:)
kcd on January 7, 2008 at 4:14 PM
I have three major priorities for the next POTUS:
1. Secure the SCOTUS.
2. Secure the Border.
3. Secure the Nation.
Funny how they all seem related, eh?
Fred is my first choice, warts and all. But given the need to secure the SCOTUS before it falls under leftist domination for the next generation, I’m starting to wonder if McCain, RINO that he is, might not be the better choice against Obama. I trust him to give me #3, and probably #1 even if he’s against me on #2.
Which begs the question: Dare we submit a true conservative against Obama? Or should we view this as a triage situation and cut our losses?
Browncoatone on January 7, 2008 at 4:21 PM
I Soooo much, as a newbie registrant, want to give my unbridled thoughts on this buffoons oratories as my very VERY FIRST post……
But, I will restrain myself for the seasoned members who are concerned about the newly opened flood-gates of nonsensical rantings…..
And simply leave you with this…….

The problem is that Bill fails to realize that we don’t need her to be younger, taller, or male. None of these things matter in the end. All he did was pick three things that he knows can’t be changed, regardless, to try to show how little control they have over the situation. It makes her a victim and gives people the opportunity to feel sorry for her. Had he chosen three qualities, any three out of the many listed: likeable, palatable, honest, charismatic, dynamic, interesting, effective, etc., that she herself caused, then that would show that she did this to herself. That she is her own problem. She chose to be the way she is and chose to exploit every bit of whatever she could to get where she wants to be.
It’s a lot harder to blame someone for something beyond their control, like their genetic makeup, than for character traits. They know this. They will try to use this. I don’t think it’s working too well.

While explaining Mr. & Ms. Clinton…You just described just about Every single liberal that I know. To a tee. Funny how that happened.
bridgetown on January 7, 2008 at 4:56 PM
I think Bill has hurt Hillary’s chances. Remember, both times he won Prez, he NEVER got the popular vote. Sombody thinks they are more popular than they really are:)
