Sheeee's Baaaaack!

Just when it seemed like Hill was staking out Bill's Middle-of-the-Road turf she needed to hit the ATM:

"There has never been an administration, I don't believe in our history, more intent upon consolidating and abusing power to further their own agenda," Mrs. Clinton told the audience at a "Women for Hillary" gathering in Midtown Manhattan this morning.

"I know it's frustrating for many of you; it's frustrating for me: Why can't the Democrats do more to stop them?" she continued to growing applause and cheers. "I can tell you this: It's very hard to stop people who have no shame about what they're doing. It is very hard to tell people that they are making decisions that will undermine our checks and balances and constitutional system of government who don't care. It is very hard to stop people who have never been acquainted with the truth."

I guess she feels secure that as the Democratic Hawk (Ha!) in the Senate she can take up some of Howard Dean's mantra.

I loved this little bit at the end, though:


On a brighter note, she said, Democrats appear to have all but "stopped" President Bush's "scheme" to overhaul Social Security. But she decried his fiscal policies, particularly Republican-backed tax cuts, saying they were ballooning the deficit and ceding "fiscal sovereignty" to countries like China (as opposed to ceding your technology, eh Hill? - ed.), which are harder to influence when they become "your banker."

If there's anybody who has experience with the Chinese as their personal banker, it's the Clintons.

"It's very hard to stop people who have no shame about what they're doing."

I believe the appropriate psychological term is "projection."
