A Red Phone...

[aggienaut]

   Although I do not watch TV, I've been hearing a lot about an ad Hillary's been running of a red phone ringing and the question of who will answer it. And presumably she thinks one should feel the answer should be her. But you know what, I definitely don't feel that way.
   She just seems like such an angry person. Her reaction to things is always to go negative and to get vicious. If that phone rings in the middle of the night I picture her waking up with "F**K I'm F**KING SLEEPING!! I don't know, extinction level airstrikes! F**K. ...Where the hell is Bill right now?"
   Whereas I can picture Obama definitely being cool and collected and reasonable at all times.

   It could be a new "two cows" joke:
"A red phone is ringing in the middle of the night..."
Bill Clinton: "Oh my god!" [looks at caller ID] "Oh its just the nuclear crisis hotline, I was afraid it was Hillary"
Pervez Musharraf: "Arrest everyone! Emergency situation!! ...Hello? What oh false alarm? Well its a good enough excuse anyway"
Russia's New President: [hits the button to call-forward to Putin]
Hugo Chavez: [Lets his voicemail messege pickup, which plays a prerecorded messege blaming the United States and Colombia; Chavez goes back to meeting with FARC narcoterrorists]
Raul Castro: "Well, lets negotiate a compromise with the west and maybe some more civil liberties couldn't hurt--" Fidel Castro from the next room over shouting through the wall: "Hey! I heard that!" Raul: "::sigh:: yeah okay, the usual."
...






Reason Number 378 Not To Vote For Hillary: Once out of office the Clintons had no further publicity uses for Socks the Cat and got rid of him. He was taken in by a low level staffer.

If you watch the ad, apparently Hillary sleeps in pants suits and full makeup.

I still don't know where she got "red phone experience"...

I mean a Senator does not have one, the wife of the President does not have one, a member of the board of Walmart does not have one...so ya.

Good read on this subject:

Excerpt:

When your entire campaign is based upon a claim of experience, it is important that you have evidence to support that claim. Hillary Clinton's argument that she has passed "the Commander- in-Chief test" is simply not supported by her record.

There is no doubt that Hillary Clinton played an important domestic policy role when she was First Lady. It is well known, for example, that she led the failed effort to pass universal health insurance. There is no reason to believe, however, that she was a key player in foreign policy at any time during the Clinton Administration. She did not sit in on National Security Council meetings. She did not have a security clearance. She did not attend meetings in the Situation Room. She did not manage any part of the national security bureaucracy, nor did she have her own national security staff. She did not do any heavy-lifting with foreign governments, whether they were friendly or not. She never managed a foreign policy crisis, and there is no evidence to suggest that she participated in the decision-making that occurred in connection with any such crisis. As far as the record shows, Senator Clinton never answered the phone either to make a decision on any pressing national security issue -- not at 3 AM or at any other time of day.
