“They didn’t actually have to eat in there, did they?” My friends, they did. Why didn’t she dump them in the ladies’ room, you ask? Just a hunch, but I’m guessing she wanted them to enjoy the full “open urinals reeking in your face” experience.
It’s so childish, so vindictive, so … Hillary. I don’t mind telling you, I’m kind of rooting for her tonight. Exit question: How big is that men’s room, anyway? Good lord.
Update: Anyone catch the music in the background? Double awesome.

I want to believe. This is quite, quite awesome.
I’m feeling a tinge of warmth for Mother Hillary right now. I’m sure it’ll pass.

My day is now made
Grafted on March 4, 2008 at 1:04 PM
Ahahahahahahaahaha. Oh Hillary. I can see her in the Oval Office now, with her crown and waving her scepter, handing out decrees and ordering people whipped in the public square…can’t wait!
mattyj86 on March 4, 2008 at 1:04 PM
They’ll get her back if she wins either Texas or Ohio by only a few points with some wonderfully scathing coverage. Like Mark Twain said, “never pick a fight with someone who buys ink by the barrel.”
Still, pretty funny.

From the linked article, a comment
I am laughing so hard my chest stings
LimeyGeek on March 4, 2008 at 1:06 PM
Was it my imagination, or did I just see Bubba come out of a stall with an issue of “Barely Legal”.
Chuck Schick on March 4, 2008 at 1:06 PM
If hc is elected, that is where she will put the military personal that is assigned to the wh after they serve lunch to her.

Hey you over there in stall No. 1! Courtesy flush please! Please, courtesy flush! I’m on deadline dammit…
Travis1 on March 4, 2008 at 1:07 PM
Bwahahahahaha!
Probably.
amerpundit on March 4, 2008 at 1:07 PM
HaHa…that’s great. Allah you’re right, only Hillary would do something like that.
Exit question: Do you think the Hillary campagin gave out complementary urinal cakes to everyone?
Lance Murdock on March 4, 2008 at 1:07 PM
As I said elsewhere when I first saw this…
How… apropriate…
Romeo13 on March 4, 2008 at 1:09 PM
Smells like victory…
Seriously, it must have been awkward when someone had to drop a deuce.
noodle on March 4, 2008 at 1:10 PM
I wonder if they turned off the urinals? Or were they continually flushing as people constantly walked by the ‘magic eye’?
One air biscuit and that would be an unlivable working environment.
Poetry.
LimeyGeek on March 4, 2008 at 1:10 PM
Could’ve won over more voters by saying, “These accommodations should be taken as a comment on the quality of our media coverage.”
amerpundit on March 4, 2008 at 1:10 PM
She should’ve banished them to the women’s restroom, then dropped a stinker on them.
SouthernGent on March 4, 2008 at 1:10 PM
WOW … that rest room is HUGE.
American Girl by Tom Petty in the background is Classic!
upinak on March 4, 2008 at 1:12 PM
The whole “it’s a movement” joke has actually become reality.
Oh, and Travis1, big kudos on the “courtesy flush”!!!!
bbz123 on March 4, 2008 at 1:14 PM
I tried my best, but couldn’t make it out.
LimeyGeek on March 4, 2008 at 1:14 PM
I hope they served Chili Cheese Burgers at the local Greasy Spoon for lunch…….. “OK people, time to get back to work!”

Since Tex-Mex food is big…in Texas, watch out for those bean burrito eaters.
Hahahahahahahaha!!!!!

That’s just gas and it will pass.

To top of this video is if someone brought in the magical Bean Burrito fart candle.
Lance Murdock on March 4, 2008 at 1:18 PM
Could I actually be starting to warm up to Hillary? Is it possible? What can I say, I have a soft spot for strong women who don’t fear being blunt and wielding power… I blame my Mother.
TheBigOldDog on March 4, 2008 at 1:19 PM
PS – I admire the Democrats’ willingness to go to the mattresses in an apologetic fashion. I respect the courage of it.
TheBigOldDog on March 4, 2008 at 1:21 PM
Um, that’s unapologetic…
TheBigOldDog on March 4, 2008 at 1:22 PM
On the plus side, it’s the nicest thing anyone’s had to endure in a bathroom from a Clinton in the past thirty years.
I wonder if she’d be willing to turn CBS into one giant men’s room. I mean, architecturally. It wouldn’t be fair to give her credit for their own achievement.
emailnuevo on March 4, 2008 at 1:24 PM
Any of you Texans heard this radio ad?
http://www.americanthinker.com/2008/03/obama_arabamerican_families_be.html
I know Limbaugh reads American Thinker. I wonder if this will make his stack of stuff today?
funky chicken on March 4, 2008 at 1:29 PM
I think this might be the wrong video. I believe this one is showing the press getting set up for the Larry Craig interview.
repvoter on March 4, 2008 at 1:30 PM
Allahpundit: I don’t mind telling you, I’m kind of rooting for her tonight.
Mazztek on March 4, 2008 at 1:31 PM
I’m warming to Hillary, the outright blatant effing with Barry and now this, I’m feeling a certain admiration for her and her devious mind.
benrand on March 4, 2008 at 1:35 PM
LOL @ the vid & repvoter
trailortrash on March 4, 2008 at 1:35 PM
I just hope all the sane republicans don’t cross over for Hillary and give TX to the Huckster.
funky chicken on March 4, 2008 at 1:36 PM
Where else would you expect to find urinalists? After all, these people wouldn’t know journalism if it walked up and peed on their legs.
Hey Bruce @ KFYI in Phoenix, I imagine this is what an editorial meeting at the RAG looks like. Hope you don’t mind me using your term ‘urinalist’, btw.
Brass Pair on March 4, 2008 at 1:42 PM
GO HILLARY!!!!!
*You won’t catch me saying that often!*
:D
Yakko77 on March 4, 2008 at 1:45 PM
No, I haven’t heard this, probably because I listen to the conservative radio stations. However, my dear friend listens to the tejano stations because she is Hispanic and came into my office yesterday to tell me how alarmed she is at what she is hearing on the Spanish speaking stations. Apparently, it’s Obamamania 24/7 for the last week. She is conservative as well, and cannot believe the promises Obama is making to the Hispanic community. She is disturbed by what she is hearing in her extended family and community. She says everyone is voting Obama without any particular reason, they just are. These are LEGAL immigrants, and they too are being swept off their feet by the messiah. Scary stuff.

Hitlery’s punishment of the MSM for fawning all over Bambi?
Shirotayama on March 4, 2008 at 1:49 PM
If she wins the nomination she will pay for treating John McCain’s base this way.
rockmom on March 4, 2008 at 1:54 PM
Was that designated a “no crunching” zone?

silenced majority. shaking head. bummer
funky chicken on March 4, 2008 at 2:02 PM
It probably did pass, check your pants.
Sorry, couldn’t resist – had to keep with the theme of the thread…
Rick on March 4, 2008 at 2:08 PM
Big is a Texas thing I hear, but it looks like some kind of urinal museum. What a perfect place to test trans-gendered bathroom rights!
Buy Danish on March 4, 2008 at 2:11 PM
Looks like they’ve returned to the womb.
MadisonConservative on March 4, 2008 at 2:11 PM
Question is, would being there give Chris Matthews a tingle up his leg?
…on second thought, better not to answer that…
(and sorry I asked)
Shirotayama on March 4, 2008 at 2:16 PM
I am too. I’m not able to vote today because I’m registered in another city, but I’d much rather see a general election against her. Even if she wins it will be much more enjoyable than a general election against Obama.

Only if Olbermann was in the next stall.
CurtZHP on March 4, 2008 at 2:21 PM
Is this a metaphor of her campaign, that is it going down the toilet?

Cuffy Meigs on March 4, 2008 at 2:36 PM
That’s my girl. This kind of stuff proves she’d be a better commander in chief than bambi. Yeah, men can be brutal, but we all know what one pissed off woman can do to a man’s life. If we had to get stuck with a democrat I’d rather it be her than that timid little empty suit.
bojack on March 4, 2008 at 2:37 PM
Hopefully, they were instructed to not eat the big mints.
Oh how I wish I had to head in there after a night of whoring about 20 white castle sliders.
wildweasel on March 4, 2008 at 2:49 PM
If someone were tapping their foot to the Petty song, would they get busted?
BacaDog on March 4, 2008 at 2:51 PM
Embarrassing. Does anyone in this cracker jack operation have any pride in their work? Doesn’t look like it. If ANY, and I mean ANY candidate asked me to set up shop in the head, I would tell her or he to F Off. Show some pride in yourself for crying out loud!
THE CHOSEN ONE on March 4, 2008 at 2:52 PM
Don’t you just hope that someone in there takes care of business and it holds together like a thunder storm! The little dweebs gag as they type. LOL!!
Big Orange on March 4, 2008 at 2:53 PM
tee hee good one AP!!
jimbo2008 on March 4, 2008 at 2:55 PM
Pride? The media? Surley you jest!
I just got a tingle up my funny bone.
shibumiglass on March 4, 2008 at 2:57 PM
I don’t want to steal anyone’s joy at seeing the press mistreated that way, but did nobody else see the chalkboard on the wall? Given the screen cap of “Austin Texas” at the beginning of the clip, I’m betting this is the Longhorns locker room. That would account for the massiveness of the restroom. But why set up the workstations right next to the urinals?
samuelrylander on March 4, 2008 at 3:04 PM
I guess the lack of comments following mine suggests that all joy has, in fact, been stolen.
samuelrylander on March 4, 2008 at 3:26 PM
yep, it’s gone for good. :-(
Man. That’s hard on the ego.
samuelrylander on March 4, 2008 at 3:42 PM
I’m going to agree w/ “upinak” above. I call BS on this, something is fishy.
Come’on, a bathroom that has enough room to have 3×6 tables 2 abreast w/ walking space on either side. That bathroom must of been 20′ across.
Where were they, a sports arena that wasn’t being used, a locker room that wasn’t finished yet?
Scott_T on March 4, 2008 at 3:48 PM
You really show the fact that you’re a New Yorker with that one, AP. Did you read the LA Times post? It’s in Austin. And EVERYTHING (including men’s rooms) is bigger in Texas.
Phew!
malan89 on March 4, 2008 at 3:57 PM
I forget which netwaork said it, but they reported that this was a lockeroom. Thats why it was so big.
I dont think even Hillary would go so low as make them work in a bathroom. This way, she gets the same effect as putting them in a bathroom while still being able to say its a lockeroom
AverageJoe on March 4, 2008 at 4:11 PM
“Network” and “Locker room”. (Have to learn how to spell)
AverageJoe on March 4, 2008 at 4:13 PM
Sitting in the classroom
Thinking it’s a drag
Listening to the teacher
Well, just ain’t my bag
Noon bells ring
You know that’s my cue
I’m gonna meet the boys
On floor number two
Smoking in the boy’s room
Smoking in the boy’s room
Now, teacher don’t you fill me
Up with your rules
Everybody knows that
Smoking ain’t allowed in school
Checking out the halls
Making sure the coast is clear
Looking in the stalls
No, there ain’t nobody here
My buddy Fang, and me and Paul
To get caught would surely
Be the death of us all
Smoking in the boy’s room, yeah
Smoking in the boy’s room
Now, teacher don’t you fill me
Up with your rules
Everybody knows that
Smoking ain’t allowed in school
All right

Puts a whole new spin on Yellow Journalism.
I’m getting a strong whiff of just how Universal Hillarycare will look.
Western_Civ on March 4, 2008 at 4:59 PM
I’m sure that being the press that in the course of their work duties they went through a large number of paper gaskets.
Speakup on March 4, 2008 at 5:13 PM
Hey! I know that jon. That’s the Burger Center. I piss there! Dang, I knew there was a reason I live in Austin. (one small red dot in a lake of blue in a see of red).

MirCat on March 4, 2008 at 5:51 PM
Yeah!? Where’s the guy to hand you a towel to dry your hands and give you a mint? Where’s the flowers and comfort couch? Where’s the toe-tapping stalls?
What kind of a men’s room is this anyway?

Heh, funny comment from the article:

Oval office = Oval porcelain.
MsUnderestimated on March 4, 2008 at 7:53 PM
Suddenly I see the movies that can be made to honor Herself. And in the context of this topic I can see: “Thighs Wide Shut” a hagography from BJ’s pov; (it’s only a double X, so the pre-adolescents can watch). “Thighs, Wide Butt” would be from the perspective of the Vast Right Wing Conspiracy…
I’m sure there are many more that are blossoming forth from fertile imaginations; I’ve just reached my saturation point.
Putting the press in the men’s john is a good place to take a break…
Christine on March 4, 2008 at 8:08 PM
I can’t even comment, I’m just laughing too hard at the stuff you kidz are coming up with!!! Thank you all!!! It’s been a very fun evening!
