[DAILYCALLER] CNN's "State of the Union" panel ripped former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton ... sometimes described as The Heroine of Tuzla and at other times as Mrs. Bill, never as Another John Jay ... and her campaign Sunday one day after staffers corralled the press behind a rope as Clinton walked in a Fourth of July parade in New Hampshire.
The panel consisting of CNN contributors S.E. Cupp and Van Jones, The Wall Street Journal's Carol Lee, and CNN political news hound Jeff Zeleny roasted Clinton's rope line, with Jones calling it "the worst visual metaphor" for her campaign.
"This is humiliating for news hounds who have to abide by Hillary Clinton's rules of journalism," Cupp told host Jake Tapper. "And it's not just this. I mean, the entire campaign, she has kept them at a distance, she barely answers questions, there's all these rules. And actually I don't blame her, I blame news hounds who put up with this. The second they decide we're not doing this anymore, we're not going to cover your glossy events the way you want it, then she'll be forced to change this behavior."
Zeleny pushed back against Cupp laying the blame at the feet of news hounds, saying the campaign is to fault for "trying to wrap her in bubble wrap" in her campaign.
"To a point, you're right. But she also has Secret Service protection, so it's very common for news hounds to follow the rules," Zeleny said. "I think this, though -- the criticism is directed at the Clinton campaign on this for trying to wrap her in bubble wrap this entire campaign and not let her actually associate with real people. That's where the criticism on this, I think, goes. Not to the news hounds."

All leftists are disgusting racists.
Case in point: Barak Hussein Obama.
It matters not his lack of merit, horrible judgement, but the bigotry of low expectation for him and the fact that they took the scum of the earth and elevated it into the highest positions in the land. No one holds HIM accountable for anything .... because he is black?

Given the demographics and the politics in Lousyana, Jindal would have never been elected dog catcher if he had not been very smart and a lights out politician.
The WaPo is just doing Hillary's bidding trying to character assassinate every potential threat to her becoming queen.

Bobby Jindal Loves America and Loves his state.
He made some bad moves, but to me he made more right ones.
He recovered them from the Hurricane, He was johnny on the spot with the oil rig blow out.
Jindal earned his voice, he is worth more than any democrat in America to me right now.
REALLY.

"Jin! Jin! Jin!
You respectable loincloth-wearing Gunga Jin!
Though my lyin' shineboys knock you,
By the dyin' press that mocks you,
You're a better man than I am, Gunga Jin!"
[Huffpoo] AMHERST, N.H. (AP) -- Clinton marched in a Fourth of July parade in Gorham, New Hampshire, trailed by a band of supporters waving signs and separated by a long rope from the pack of journalists that followed.
"I'll tell you what -- we need to get a Democratic president," Clinton told one woman along the parade route, who asked about the health care overhaul. "I'm going to not only defend it, I'm going to make it even better."
One man who carried a sign that read, "Benghazi" also followed the candidate. Alluding to her time representing New York in the Senate, he screamed repeatedly, "Carpetbagger!"
Another man on the route yelled, "What about Benghazi? What about the emails?"
Clinton smiled broadly, shaking hands and stopping for quick photos. At one point, she posed for a photo with two New Hampshire beauty pageant contestants, who playfully flexed their biceps.

And the roped in 'journalists' just went along with it. When a few were finally able to ask some pre-screened questions one asked what was her favorite flavor of Ice Cream.
Only afterwards, when they found that they were being held up for well-deserved ridicule did they blame - the reporters, the aids; everyone but Hillary.
