CNN's Candy Crowley: Hillary "Goddess"
2005-08-08
2008 presidential candidate Hillary Clinton is considered a "goddess" in Democratic Party circles, CNN's Candy Crowley reported Saturday.
"I honestly hear the word 'goddess' attached to her," Crowley told fellow CNN'er Joe Johns, who asked her to survey the 2008 political landscape.
Kali, goddess of destruction, worshipped by the thuggee.
"She's kind of this – she doesn't have to show up in New Hampshire for another three-and-a-half years, because she's such a presence there," Crowley continued to gush.
"Like a dark brooding shadow, draining their life forces, till all that's left is an empty shell"
In the next breath Crowley seemed at a loss for words to explain the awe-inspiring power of Sen. Clinton's charisma. "I mean, she is, you know, again, she, like McCain on the Republican side, they already have – look, they already have names, they already have networks. They don't need to be [in New Hampshire] right now. It's the insurgents that need to be in there now."

#20  DICK MORRIS on FOX was arguing that since he believes Hillary isn't dedicated to her official task/office as Senator by and for the people of New York, that she should just refrain from running for Senator in '06, where she presently stands a either good chance of losing or else to win only by minutae points, and focus wholly instead on winning the Presidency, which is what she wants to be to begin with.

#19  I thought being beautiful and ageless was part of being a goddess.

I thought only the Norns were old hags.

What gives?

#13  Kali? Bah!

Y'all must be completely ignorant.

She seems to match Hera _very_ closely.

If Bill can have, Monica, Gennifer, Kathryn, etc. etc...

Of course the "looker" of his harem was the ex-Miss America, Elizabeth Gracen



Of course, Vince Foster's suicide?
If she preferred Cthulhu that might explain some things...

#9  Candy Crowley, my god, all she lacks is a pig nose.
You can believe what she says because her looks always give her away.

Mark my words. We will regret Hillary and the patriot act. Hillary's dirty tricks gang makes Nixon look like a choir boys. There is no law they will not break.

#8  No, no, no.... This is a piece of good reporting. Does anyone doubt that this is correct; that she is regarded as the "goddess" of the dems right now? Or that some dems are so profoundly sophomoric that they would actually think and say something like that?

It just goes to show how little they have going for them... Their most popular candidate for the white house is with a one term carpetbagging senatorial wife of an ex-president, whose only executive branch assignment (health care) was widely and profoundly rejected, and whose record in the senate is largely at odds with her previous thinking on many issues.

#7  I assume from the designation of "CNN" that MS Crowley is some sort of TV news talking head, but I am only too happy to state that I have no other idea of who this woman is, what she looks like, or why anyone should be hanging on her word.

Of course, the "goddess" in question is the Venus of Willendorf.

Well there's one thing Candy won't ever have to be worried about being referred to as...

#2  Bias? What Bias? Move along, it's all in the figment of your imagination.

"In the next breath Crowley seemed at a loss..like McCain"

If McCain thought he had snowball's chance in hell before, to run, I ate toooo much Candy Crowley pretty much obliterated any future for the McCain presidency. Being compared to Hillary, all in one weazing breath is definitely not the ticket.

#1  ROTFLMAO!

Goddess? Of what? Naked raw unprincipled ambition?

Crowley needs meds. And to have her stomach stapled.
