Hillary, This Blog's For You: Google First, Media Second - Page 2

Huh? You've got to be kidding. He won't be on the ballot? Bhutto was not up against her arch-enemy Musharraf? Say it ain't so, Ben. This really begs the question: were our genius and her entire expert staff sans technology, sans computer in this day and age of Aquarius? That is the unpardonable sin. If only she had Googled, she would have known that Bhutto had already served as prime minister, not once but twice. It was during her second term that they sipped tea together or clicked their heels across the tiles of her beautiful home. She was never president of Pakistan, the office held by Pervez Musharraf. Bhutto's husband had also been prime minister. A quick Wikipedia visit would have resulted in this gem:

She [Benazir Bhutto] was assassinated on December 27, 2007, after departing a PPP rally in the Pakistani city of Rawalpindi, two weeks before the scheduled Pakistani general election of 2008 where she was a leading opposition candidate.

Thus as my title suggests: in that order, go to Google, or Wikipedia first, then set up your media discourse or soliloquy. It only takes a few minutes. Even Al Gore has teamed up with them to control global warming and make lots of money. This messy mistake could have been completely avoided by Mrs. Clinton, or it is your royal highness? I am confused by your many years in the White House, was it eight years exactly? By coincidence that’s also the number of years that Mrs. Bhutto was in exile, before her October return, and almost the number of years she served as PM in total. If Senator Clinton has no problem with this, I think she owes the people a little mea culpa. And before you start calling Heloise a Hillary hater because Bobby Kennedy, Jr. endorsed her recently, consider this: she thinks she's an "Eleanor Roosevelt." Well as one candidate once said so eloquently: Hillary, you're no Eleanor Roosevelt. Presidential candidate Hillary Clinton could have avoided the sneers, jeers, stares, and giggles at this unforgivable gaff if only she ventured to Google. Did Michael Bloomberg go to Google, and bone up on the polling of his peers, then to Ryan Seacrest before announcing definitively he had decided not to run for president? If so, he chose wisely.

    "Well as one candidate once said so eloquently: Hillary, you're no Eleanor Roosevelt"

    Give Hillary her due.

    She and Eleanor do have one thing in common.

    Philandering husbands.
