‘I can’t be responsible for every under-capitalized small business in America’!” — Tony Snow reporting on Hillary’s health care plan.
We expect to meet our candidates multiple times, not just to hear them but to vet them. We expect them to be here in good weather and bad, in the bigger NH cities and the little hamlets. Sooner or later, under the watchful eyes of individual citizens that really do care about “getting it right”, the real person that is the candidate comes out whether by gaffe or a momentary slip of the PR mask. But I bow to the superior knowledge of those that knew them “on” camera / “in the public eye” and when not:
“F*** OFF,” HILLARY REPLIED:
‘?Good morning, ma’am,” a member of the uniformed Secret Service once greeted Hillary Clinton.
“F*** off,” she replied.
That exchange is one among many that active and retired Secret Service agents shared with Ronald Kessler, author of First Family Detail, a compelling look at the intrepid personnel who shield America’s presidents and their families — and at those whom they guard.
Kessler writes flatteringly and critically about people in both parties. Regarding the Clintons, Kessler presents Chelsea as a model protectee who respected and appreciated her agents. He describes Bill as a difficult chief executive, but an easygoing ex-president. And Kessler exposes Hillary as an epically abusive Arctic monster.
“When in public, Hillary smiles and acts graciously,” Kessler explains. “As soon as the cameras are gone, her angry personality, nastiness, and imperiousness become evident.” He adds: “Hillary Clinton can make Richard Nixon look like Mahatma Gandhi.”
Note this conclusion: Kessler’s “astonishment at Hillary Clinton’s inhumanity should reverberate inside every American’s head. As he told me: ‘No one would hire such a person to work at a McDonald’s, and yet she is being considered for president of the United States.’”
The measure of a man’s (or woman’s) character can be known in what they do when no one is around – or in this case of politics, when the cameras are off. There is a bunch of her quotes over at my Progressive view of The Proper Role of Government – and your subservience to it. In each and every one of them, you can see her complete disregard for the individual and that The State could do what it wanted to in achieving what she wants:
I get really frustrated with people who don’t understand what I think it’s going to take to make our country great tomorrow just like we were yesterday.
F*** you, is the message from Hillary. Yeah, that’s Presidential, all right.
