Hillary Clinton in the Congo being asked what Bill Clinton thought, as Marisa Tormei said in My Cousin Vinnie, "It's a bullshit question".


It's a bullshit question, Marissa Tormei from my Cousin Vinny correctly replies. Ironically, if Hillary Clinton had said that, she would have been skewered by the press. Before you can see the one minute video clip you have to state you are over 18 years of age. It is my opinion that you don't have to answer with the exact year you were actually born if you feel that is being invasive, just as long as you are 18 years of age or older.

If anyone would like to take a moment and respond in the comments section with what Hillary Clinton "should have said" during that Congo Question and Answer session when she was asked by a male member of the audience "What Bill Clinton thought about China and the World Bank's involvement in Congo", that would NOT have been turned against her by either the media or by political pundits, please, educate me. Otherwise, "It's a bullshit question".

But prepared for me to demonstrate how the media would have spun your response to put Hillary Clinton down no matter what her response would have been.

One more gripe, I could not find this scene on Youtube. Just one more example of how amazing women's scene don't end up on youtube.

DailyPUMA Slightly shifts some blogs from the inner right column to the outer right column.

In case you are used to looking at one column for a specific blog, I noticed that the inner right column was "descending" topics at a much faster rate than the outer column over the first several hours. This was due in part to my adding some new blogs in the past couple of weeks to the inner column.

If I shifted your blog to the outer right column it was entirely to help ensure that your blog wasn't descending too fast by being in the inner right column.

Two blogs were recently dropped for their "handling" of the Hillary Clinton Congo incident. Their criticism of Hillary Clinton's response to the what would Bill Clinton think question revealed them to be PUMA's that are not for Hillary Clinton. I am not against criticizing Hillary Clinton, but when it is so obviously either another media attempt to "put her in her place", or a republican led assault, then why go along if you really are a PUMA?

The Media treatment of Hillary Clinton is basically one of the primal tenets that caused PUMA's to be born, no?

I will also issue this request, If ANYONE can come up with what Hillary Clinton should have said when she was asked "What Bill Clinton thought about China and the World Bank's involvement in Congo" question, that would not have resulted in Hillary Clinton being skewered by the media or her political opponents, please, put it in the comments section.

I don't believe an answer exists that would have allowed Hillary Clinton to get away unscathed from that question. It is what used to be known as a "wife beating" question.
In the earlier days of our court system, lawyers would ask an opposing defendant, plaintiff or witness "if they STILL beat their wives".

No matter how one answers the question, they are made to look as if they beat their wife at one time or another. That is the type of situation that Hillary Clinton was put in, in Congo.
