Hillary’s ‘Fearmongering’ Ad

• March 1, 2008

Check out this desperation ‘Hail Mary’ ad from Hillary:

The wheels are coming off Hillary’s campaign, but you have to admit that for
a lot of people her image remains solid. There are a lot of Democrats, independents
and maybe even some Republicans that really believe Hillary is the best person
to pick up that telephone in the middle of the night. Why would anyone believe
that, however? She never had a security clearance in the White House, and so she was
never privy to national security issues. Hillary has never been tested in an
emergency – so where does this assumption come from that she has proven herself
to be calm and collected during a catastrophe?

Once again we see Hillary trying to lay claim to something to which she is
not entitled. Or at least no more entitled than Obama is. She has laid claim
to other things such as ‘competence’ and ‘experience’ also, again with no justification
for doing so. This is a testament to Hillary’s ability to build her own image,
which even now seems to remain intact for the most part.

Or, you could be one of those people who sees through the fluff and laughs
at this commercial for the ridiculous premises it rests on.

Heck, McCain should use that ad against either candidate

Are you sure about this?
Why didn’t they give her a security clearance?
She would have put in for one — it’s almost automatic (everybody knew she was going to be involved at every level).
I have a hard time believing that she would be denied a clearance, even if she struggled with the polygraph.

I just find this very hard to believe that a first lady — indeed, somebody who marketed herself a co-president before her husband took office — could not gain access to a commonly held clearance (I do believe Linda Tripp had one, for God’s sake!).

And, the alternative I find harder to believe: that Hillary would have contented herself to a being a spectator of history — from the cheap seats — is hardly imaginable.

So, I have to ask you to prove a negative.
Prove that she had no clearance.

Ken,

Competence is relative. Hillary was there for eight years and has been in the Senate ever since. That is 16 years in the White House and in the Senate.

Compare that experience to Obama who has been a Senator for 4 years and before that was simply a State Senator in Illinois.

Relative competence. Compared to Obama, she has a hell of a lot more experience. And a track record. We know what she will do. We either like it or we hate it, but we know what it will be. I hate it personally. With Obama, we are sure he will “change” things. To what or from what, we must only guess. We just know it will be different.

That was actually a pretty good ad.

I’d rather have Hillary than Obama in the white House. A competent person who I severely disagree with is better than an imbecile who prattles on and on about “change”.

It actually comes from a Saturday Night Live skit where Dana Carvey asked a very similar question.

Meet the Depressed Sunday showed a very similar ad that was used by Walter Mondull against Ronald Reagan, with the phone call in the night and all.
Sure worked well for old Walt, now, didn’t it?

Hillary is caught between Barack and a dark face!

Her policies are too close to Obama’s to have any meaningful debate in a Leftist primary — as a matter of fact she is a bit to the right.

Any attempt, even legitimate attempts, to counter his messianic rise have been countered with the subtle undertone or overt accusations of racism, not by the candidate but by proxies (including the media).

That has put Hillary dead center between Barack and a dark face.

BTW, I didn’t mind this ad. Fear mongering has been dragged out so often by the screaming left that even accurate reporting of the dangers is now called mongering.

I’d put Obama’s real experience as an elected official in Illinois over this any day. Just ‘being there’ doesn’t impress me that much. Monica Lewinsky was ‘there’ also.
