Secretary of State Clinton, who has been dogged by questions about former President Bill Clinton since his rescue mission to North Korea, blew a gasket Monday.
The flareup came at a stop in the Democratic Republic of the Congo on her Africa tour.
During a meeting with Congolese youth in Kinshasa, a university student took the microphone to ask about the growing influence of China on the continent and then added, through a translator, "What does Mr. Clinton think about it?"
The kid may have been sandbagged by a poor translation from the French, but Secretary Clinton was having none of it and snapped back in a rare public show of temper.
"Wait, you want to know what my husband thinks? My husband is not the secretary of state - I am," Clinton said angrily.
"You ask my opinion, I will tellyou my opinion. I'm not goingto channel my husband," shesaid, leaning forward in herseat and pointing with bothhands at the questioner.
Clinton then sat back, clearly exasperated, as the moderator moved on.
Chill out, woman!!!!

You'd think a reporter would have a smarter question to ask than that. It's insulting...

.. in itself: "What does Mr. Clinton think about it?" He's probably not thinking about it at all chasing some fine, chocolate tail near his office in Harlem (he should be chasing chocolate tail.. He may as well go for some hot chicks. Monica Lewinsky's a pig. If yer gonna screw around on the Missus, pick a hottie, not a chick who saves dresses with your dried load all over it.. But that's neither here nor there, as Keith Richards has been known to say LOL.
Hillary's quite competent, and I think she's cool.
Good for her for shutting down that reporter and snapping him back into his place (reporter and Bill LOL) .
Even I would have had a better question to ask than something that obvious, too easy not to mention insulting to what Hillary knows, does and all of that. Bill wrecked it for her with Presidential ambitions because I honestly don't feel his ego could take it if she did get elected in. Bill was a good president. Couldn't keep it in his pants for the life of him, but then, that's part of the dinner of wanting to be President, is it not?
Tell 'Em Hillary! Tell 'Em All! Tell 'Em! Kiss My United States Of America Secretary Of State Ass, you dumbassed reporter. Bite my s**tch you f***! LOL ;-D
Maybe tomorrow.

For starters...a STUDENT asked her. Not a reporter. Why chill out? Because the bitch is a public SERVANT that needs to show a bit of class. Her husband had no class...so, it's no surprise she can't show any i guess.

The media has a bad habit these days to focus on the smoke and not the fire. The whole health care reform debate has become about people yelling in auditoriums and not about the very complicated issues involved. There ought to be a news reform debate.
