Couldn’t help but laugh when I came across this…..

Tsongkhapa (Tibetan: Tsong-kha-pa) (1357 – 1419), whose name means “The Man from Onion Valley”, was a famous teacher of Tibetan Buddhism… http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Je_Tsongkhapa

But wasn’t Hillary pilloried this last week for supposedly “risking the life of an 8 year old for a photo opportunity in Bosnia in 1996….. and risking the life of her only daughter by making her stand under withering sniper fire on the tarmac in Tuzla?”

In fact, if there had been sniper fire, there are few things more callous than knowing you’re a target but nonetheless pulling to your chest an 8 year old girl and allow your daughter to stand by your side…” http://www.dailykos.com/story/2008/3/22/211412/654/668 /482425

I could not run the clip so will take a related topic. Chelsea Clinton, the 28 year-old campaign operative for her mother, has been off-limits (for the press) as far as tough questions or criticism. It’s worth considering that Chelsea is 7 years older than Monica Lewinsky was when Hillary’s husband began, in essence, raping her on a regular basis. Clinton, to this day, has shown his utter lack of guts or manhood by leaving this young lady swinging in the breeze, as he did with Susan McDougal. The Clintons, to my pea-brain at least, are no more than self-absorbed miscreants.
