Note: This post was written January 17, 2006. The included photoshop's meaning is being twisted by liberals in August 2006 to be something that it's not. What a shock, dishonesty from liberals! At any rate, here's my reply.

What a nutcase. Apparently Hillary is now equating the troubles of house Democrats, with that of early American slaves!?

Hillary had been playing the moderate role for some time now, even being hawkish on the war, but over the past couple weeks she's been going back to her old liberal roots. However in this speech (video at The Political Teen), she went back to the roots of others.

Via Fox News:

The House "has been run like a plantation, and you know what I'm talking about," said Clinton, D-N.Y. "It has been run in a way so that nobody with a contrary view has had a chance to present legislation, to make an argument, to be heard."

"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."

First of all, when did slaves on a plantation try to pass legislation in Congress? I don't think slaves were worried about making arguments, being heard, or passing legislation in Congress... They were a little more concerned with freedom from being beaten to death, hung, and forced to work for no pay for their entire lives. Hillary thinks that Democrats in Congress are worthy of comparison to what the slaves endured!?!?!?

Now I recommend checking out the analysis around the blogosphere that delves deeper into which party is and has been better for black people and racial equality, particularly in recent years. I think with a little research, we all know the truth on that one. The real issue here is just how ridiculous these particular comments are, and what an uproar this would be if anyone on the right said anything even remotely close to this. It seems like the lefties have been in competition with eachother for insanity over the past few days and weeks.

By the way, can we safely say that we've found where Howard Dean has been hiding? It seems that he moved in to Hillary's body shortly before Christmas, and has just learned how to operate her vocal chords. Seriously, as off the wall as it might be even for Dean to say, isn't he the one you can picture saying it?

One should also note (watch entire video) that she goes on to rant that in order to rectify her unspecified complaints, we need to elect Democrats. She doesn't say "We have this great plan to do..." or "Get us in office so we can fix...", she just simply throws out that the solution to the country's problems is to elect Democrats. It reminded me of the many Kerry election speeches about how he had "a plan", but somehow never actually said what it was. Ah, the lesser known "I have a plan" speech.... never quite caught on like MLK Jr.'s "I have a dream" speech for some reason.

There are unconfirmed reports that Hillary has also said she will no longer use the DC Metro Rail in favor of the Underground Railroad before she broke in to song with her rendition of 'Wade on the Water'. Puzzled minions politely clapped.
