Apparently, she does. Let's get the record straight, here. We're talking about Hillary shedding the first tears we've ever seen from her. Funny, she didn't cry when Monica Lewinsky threatened her so-called marriage or her husband's presidency. We didn't see her cry when her father died during her first ladyship years. But when she faced the possibility of losing the New Hampshire primary, she suddenly had tear ducts.
Some analysts think these genuine tears may have wrested NH away from Barak Obama. Wrong. These were not genuine tears. These were rehearsed tears, waiting for the appropriate moment. The moment came, but people are now starting to question whether or not the moment was really appropriate.
The woman who asked Hillary the emotional question was interviewed. (Now she's famous for being the first person in America to make Hillary cry.) The woman was confused by Hillary's reaction to her question because the woman asked how Hillary took the stress of always trying to look good during the campaign, and inquired who did her hair. Hillary then started spilling over, talking about how the campaign has personal meaning for her.
Huh? The campaign is personal to Hillary Clinton? You mean, it's not a political game? Assuming the woman who asked the question was not a Clinton stooge in the meeting (and would you really be surprised if she was?), you can see why she was surprised at Hillary's reaction. She asked about Hillary's hairdresser. How many of you have cried when you've been asked who your hairdresser is?
Yes, the campaign is very personal to Hillary Clinton. That's because the whole campaign or potential presidency is only about her. Hillary will do anything do win the presidency, even if it means stooping to crying for it.
Now please understand me; there's nothing wrong with genuine tears. But there is something wrong when those tears are used as a last-ditch strategy to manipulate her way to the White House.
They talk about Hillary being too hard core. But we didn't know how hard core she is. With her tearful plea on the eve of the NH primary when she realized that Barak Obama might beat her, she turned to tears because that's what would work, she hoped. And this time, it did. Hillary Clinton will do anything to become president.
For those who voted for her, is that what you really want? Right now we have a bully as a president; If Clinton wins, we'll have a spoiled baby. Will she cry whenever she doesn't get her way with Congress? No one recalls Margaret Thatcher crying; nor German's Angela. And I haven't seen Nancy Pelosi tear up when things have gone wrong since the Democratic Congress has failed to meet its goals.
I'll tell you one thing: this is what the Republicans want. Believe me, if Hillary wins the Democratic nomination, you'll hear plenty about how she cried when she thought she was losing. She wants to be the first woman president to shatter all the myths about how women can't handle the tough issues without becoming too emotional. So what does she do? She cries when the going gets hard.
Analysts have been talking about how some of her supporters have started pulling their funding away from her campaign. So what? Hillary doesn't need any more money for advertising and smear campaigning against Obama. All she needs is a few bucks for extra tissues to pass around when she sits down to have a good cry with her constituents.
If Hillary wins the nomination, G-d forbid, there will be a lot more tears shed-but they'll be ours not hers.
If you have any doubts as to who's the best individual to be the Democratic contender next November, look at how each candidate reacted at the prospect of losing: When Barak Obama officially lost the primary, he congratulated Mrs. Clinton for a hard-won race. When Obama lost, he took it like a man And when Hillary thought she was losing, she took it like.... Hillary Clinton.

Post a CommentOh thank you! Thank you! I am always afraid to say anything negative about Hillary and you said it all. You are right...God forbid she wins!
lol love the title - how appropriate! YES she is a fake lol
Nice. Very nice.
I did hear something on TV about Hillary shedding tears. I think Bill also shed a few tears when he was interviewed about his wife's progress. But I don't have an opinion either way on the matter, to be quite honest with you.
