Lost in Transclinton

How diplomatic was Hillary's reaction to the Kenyan student the other day?

 

[Friday on my mind]

Not very but I guess she gets annoyed at times when people ask what this translator asked.The translation was incorrect,the question the student asked was about what Obama thinks not Bill.She I think is still struggling to get some people to see her as more than just an appendage of Bill.

Surprisingly undiplomatic . I was shocked!

Lost in translation: Hillary Clinton loses her cool in Congo.

Secretary of State Hillary Clinton snapped at a university student during a town hall-style meeting in the Congolese capital of Kinshasa on Monday. A translator erroneously made it sound as if the student wanted to know what her husband, former President Bill Clinton, thought about a foreign policy issue.

"You want me to tell you what my husband thinks? If you want my opinion, I will tell you my opinion, I am not going to be channeling my husband," Clinton said. "My husband is not secretary of state, I am."

Is she still upset that Palin didn't have to ride her husband's coattails to get where she is?

Hillary should have stayed home and baked cookies.
If she even knows how to cook.

You know it's true.

Hillary has always had a stick up her ass and gets off on having "power."

 

[Spleen]

It was the exact reaction I'd expect from a woman.

No offense ladies.

 

[JakeSnake]

Not at all.

Well I think good on her , she was showing shes her own women and it was the translators fault for getting it wrong , I think I would think less of her if she started going on about what Bill thought !!!!!!

Good on her :thumbsup:

Her response was a little "snotty" but it was a pretty inconsiderate question. I can see why anyone would be slightly angered by it.

She couldn't know the translator messed up.
