But her tone, mannerisms and gestures combined to be...oh, i don't know...strident? She could have done better.<br /><br />(And I agree on the <em>concept</em> of the comparison to Joe Biden being asked what his wife might think, but it's not a perfect analogy. President Clinton maintains serious RockStar creds in Africa. It's not really that surprising that someone wants his take on things (even if they are asking entirely the wrong person).Nathanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00648438549121320566noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-745748859173296736.post-90200922314331031872009-08-12T18:06:48.420-04:002009-08-12T18:06:48.420-04:00It sounds like she was asked, "What does Mr. ...It sounds like she was asked, "What does Mr. Clinton think through the <i>mouth</i> of Mrs. Clinton...?"; I finally looked at the clip on YouTube since I couldn't get the link you have to work (I'm not blaming you--Firefox on Linux can be tricky with some video formats).<br /><br />I think the question was extraordinarily insulting, and I'm not sure how Ms. Clinton could possibly have answered it "diplomatically" without being a pushover, so I'm not exactly getting riled about the "meltdown." Matter of fact, I keep trying to imagine how Vice-President Biden would react to being asked what Jill Biden thought about something; but the truth is that I can't get past the fact that he'd never be asked that, notwithstanding the fact that Jill Biden is (by all accounts) the smart one in the family. And the fact that nobody anywhere in the world would ask Joe Biden that probably explains why Ms. Clinton's ire is understandable.<br /><br />I'm not a huge fan of Ms. Clinton, but I'm giving her a pass on this one.Erichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18275812152895151542noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-745748859173296736.post-38807033396277023342009-08-12T16:11:40.146-04:002009-08-12T16:11:40.146-04:00Add in that part of her trip was to meet with (war...Add in that part of her trip was to meet with (war) rape victims in the Congo (which I believe was to be the very next day).
