A week ago, Norman Hsu, Hillary’s renegade, Chinese cash bundler, got picked up in Colorado. He was on the lam from California, where he faces jail time for an old fraud conviction. Things got worse when rumors of a suicide attempt surfaced. This all opened old Clinton wounds of Chinese cash scandals. Remember Charlie Tre? In the end, Hillary had to return over $800,000. Ouch!
Next, Osama Bin Laden popped up with a brand new video (and beard). This would have been a good opportunity for Hillary to screech (I’m sorry, that’s how she talks) about how poorly George Bush has done capturing the devil himself (Bin Laden) instead of wasting his time killing thousands of other poor innocent terrorists who pose no threat whatever to the rest of us. Unfortunately for Hillary, Bin Laden had adopted all of the major Democratic talking points into the new video, which made it awkward for her to point out just how evil and depraved the man is. To make things worse, people began to recall how her husband had let Bin Laden get away when he was offered up to him by the Sudanese years ago Ouch again!
Things began to look up for Hillary later in the week. General Petraeus was coming into town for his report on the Iraq war. A good Bush-bashing opportunity! MoveOn.org (an old bunch of loyal Clinton groupies) got the ball rolling with a full page ad in the New York Times, calling Petraeus, in effect, a traitor. Hillary got so excited over this that she called Petraeus, in effect, a liar. However, after the public began to admire the showing Petraeus made in front of Congress, they also began to resent the despicable MoveOn.org ad, the New York Times, and anyone who called Petraeus a liar at the hearings. Rudy Giuliani, smelling blood, pounced on Hillary over the whole affair. Ouch number three!
To round out a bad week, conservative talk show host, Laura Ingraham’s new book moved ahead of husband Bill’s latest “tome” on the Amazon.com best-seller list. That one hurt!
Needless to say, Hillary has been listed as missing in action these last couple of days.
