her husband's over-the-top histrionics in South Carolina :

In the interview yesterday, Hillary Clinton said it was ``human nature'' to get carried away and also spoke of ``sleep deprivation.'' At the same time, she said Bill Clinton, 61, is ``going to continue to be with me and support me and speak out for me.''

Sleep deprivation ? ! ?  Are you freakin' KIDDING me ?

It may be a few degrees removed, but that kind of a BS excuse reminded me of Mel Gibson offering up drunkenness as a reason for racism and anti-Semitism.
