Hillary gains international endorsement at Jeddah conclave
2006-02-15
I have changed my mind. Now I want the *director's cut* of the DVD box set from the 2006 Jeddah Economic Forum. It's one for the ages.
JEDDAH, Saudi Arabia -- Former German Chancellor Gerhard Schroeder, a fierce critic of the Bush administration, said Saturday that he's pulling for U.S. Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton to win the White House. "I'd be very pleased if Hillary Clinton would become the next American president," Schroeder said to applause from a largely Saudi audience at the Jeddah Economic Forum, which opened here Saturday. "But don't quote me too loud. I hope I'm not harming her by saying that."
I'm renting a plane to pull that quote on a banner along every beach in the US...
Schroeder made the statement during a discussion of global women leaders at a gender-segregated theater where a plastic barrier separated women from men.
Way to go to stand up for wimmin's rights, Gerhard.

#6  Boy, that Karl Rove is GOOD! (3)

I saw a poll recently where Hilly got about 15% of the vote, "42% picked none of the above."

Irony so thick you could cut it with a chainsaw.

I hereby propose two new Rantburg pages: one specifically for Scrappleface items so people don't get confused and have inappropriate spasms of outrage and the second for items like this one that would be on the Scrappleface page if it weren't for the fact that they actually happen

#4  Mr Schroeder is now a director on the Russian Nat Gas and Petroleum company that is working hard to gouge Germany.

He probably has popularity ratings near zero in Germany today.

#1  Hey, Em.

You want the director's cut? Of which version?

I'm getting the feeling there were two productions of this conference, one by David Lynch, and a remake done by the scifi channel.
