Bill Piles On the Cheese for Hillary

Bill on the treadmill
hillaryclinton.com

In this latest campaign video for Hillary Clinton, her once-tubbier hubby is shown sweating it out on a treadmill as a cheeseburger appears on the TV he’s watching, rotating in lascivious beefy splendor on the screen.  This isn’t, however, the cheesiest moment from this ad, which ultimately aims to point out how “Caucusing [i.e., for Hillary] is easy!”

Watch the clip:

The Clintons, a family of comedian politicians. Just what the country needs. Too bad there’s one stooge missing, oh sorry Roger, I forgot you’re out there somewhere just waiting to sell some new Presidential pardons if Hill makes it back into the Out House.

Can the country really stand anymore of these clowns.

#113947 by Hammo on 11/16 at 7:22 am: “No matter how “cute” or human the Clintons try to be, they still represent a good chance for the Republicans to win the presidency again…... “Democrats risk self-sabotage in presidential race ... again”...”

Will they “snatch defeat from the jaws of victory,” as some have characterized it? Yes, if Edwards and Obama continue their SEXIST assaults on Hillary Clinton as they have just done!

They have been proven to be fools but can the sexist male Democrat voter see that? Presidential Democratic candidates attacking each other is hardly a recipe for success…....

No matter how “cute” or human the Clintons try to be, they still represent a good chance for the Republicans to win the presidency again.

McCain or Romney could possibly win a general election against Hillary (or Obama).

Thoughts on this in the article ...

“Democrats risk self-sabotage in presidential race ... again”

That ad just shows the Clintons’ contempt for us. They think the voters are idiots. “You’ll be able to watch your favorite TV program after it’s over.” I hope Bill chokes on that hamburger.

We have a corrupt government on steroids, and SavetheEarth wants us to vote for a guy(Kucinich) who wants take away hand guns from the American people.

Poor Bill.  Those damned TV ads!

Ya gotta love the not-so-subtle way ole Hill is getting back at her philandering tubby-hubby: play him as the buffoon while she trods the path her Corportate Pimps have laid out for her. 

For Hill, it’s a win-win situation!

Ugh.

We’ve learned our lesson. Whomever the media pushes hardest, vote elsewhere. ‘Kay GW?

Why the need for every candidate to project a “folksy” image?  Didn’t the Bush presidency teach us anything?

Watching that was hard. Turning it off was easy.
Vote for Kucinich.
