Hillary Clinton: "Worst administration ever"
Tue Jan 17, 2006 at 07:02:04 AM PDT
Yesterday at a MLK jr event in Harlem Clinton verbally smacked around BushCo, even comparing them to a 'plantation where dissenting voices are squelched'.
While I'm not sure how I feel about pandering analogies aimed toward a specific group, I am pleased to hear this kind of rhetoric in general. IF Clinton runs for president (if, if), she ought to keep this kind of talk up. While she is not my first choice Dem for the job, displaying this fierce attitude will ease my task of pulling the lever for her should she be the nom.
Lemme know if this has been diaried already.

NEW YORK - Sen. Hillary Clinton on Monday blasted the Bush administration as "one of the worst" in U.S. history and compared the Republican-controlled House of Representatives to a plantation where dissenting voices are squelched.
Speaking during a Martin Luther King Jr. Day event, Clinton also offered an apology to a group of Hurricane Katrina survivors "on behalf of a government that left you behind, that turned its back on you."
...to thunderous applause. In advance of the Clinton bashing to come, let me say that in my opinion this is exactly the right thing to do on this holiday to her own constituents who need badly to hear this from their representative in Congress.
"We have a culture of corruption, we have cronyism, we have incompetence," she said. "I predict to you that this administration will go down in history as one of the worst that has ever governed our country."
That's my favorite line....the worst that has ever governed our country. I have seen a clip of this on CNN this morning, along with several clips of Gore's speech. Its almost like the 90s again.
