Witch Breaks Out The Broom

MIAMI (AP) - "A clean sweep" is needed at the White House because President Bush has fostered "a culture of cronyism, corruption and incompetence," Hillary Rodham Clinton said Saturday.

The Democratic presidential candidate told nearly 1,000 women at a fundraiser that she would have much work to do at the White House if she won election in 2008.

"After eight years of the Bush administration, we are going to be shocked by what we find," the New York senator and former first lady said. "Somebody said to me the other day if there was ever a time for a woman president it's now because we're going to have to do a lot of cleaning."

The women, many of who brought their daughters to the $100 per plate "Women for Hillary" breakfast, applauded wildly.

"Grab your buckets, grab your brooms," Clinton said. "We're going to have to do a clean sweep because there has been a culture of cronyism, corruption and incompetence."

Sen. Clinton said Bush has squandered the budget surplus that her husband, former President Clinton, left and damaged the nation's standing in the world with a shortsighted approach to diplomacy..."

The prior occupant of the White House left it as an impeached felon. Think about that for a moment if you'd be so kind. Hillary Rodham's husband committed felonies against our body of law, emboldened our most deadly of enemies by not retaliating after the World Trade Center bombing, gutted the military and made a laughing stock of his office.

This was on Hillary's watch, mind you. Back when the Joint Chiefs of Staff couldn't get a sit-down with the President without first clearing it with HER office. The same woman who aided and abetted William Jefferson Clinton, the same woman who left Washington in disgrace and a laughing stock for assembling a health care proposal so infantile and ridiculous, this SAME woman wants another shot at running things.

She's wowing the soccer-mom's but we all knew that'd happen. It will be a decidedly different story come time to debate a Rudy or Fred who will eat her for lunch and while I'm on that tangent I don't for a moment believe that a short, portly old woman with a shrill and screechy voice is going to stand on the same stage with a far taller man and go toe to toe. She'll demand all debates will be a sitdown affair and take that to the bank. The democrat Bash-Bush-Fests that have been masquerading as "debates" drawn the loons who could care less, but a Presidential debate is a horse of a different color.
