Cornholer

"Certainly, we're not going to just have our president meet with Fidel Castro and Hugo Chavez and you know, the president of North Korea, Iran and Syria, until we know better what the way forward would be," Hillary Clinton, at the YouTube debate.

What bothers me about this quote from HRC is that she used this comment to (a) paint Barack Obama as some naive idiot who would be hypnotized by just meeting with "evil men" and (b) she is aping the Chimp by painting the world in black and white and good and evil. She is playing straight from Rove's playbook. Scare the hell out of people and accuse anyone less shrill of being a weak, effeminate dupe of commies. Now that I think about it, it's straight McCarthyism.

What a cornholer.
