Insert "acid reflux" joke here

I like how the article randomly tosses in this line:

Last September her husband, former US President Bill Clinton, underwent quadruple bypass heart surgery.

As if to imply it might have been contagious or something.

Mrs Clinton had later been due to give a lecture at a Catholic college on health care.

That sucks. For the life of me, I could never understand all the Hillary ire, during the Clinton era and especially since Bush was elected. FFS, all she did was get us all some fucking health care, which I personally would love to have so I could quit my shitty job already.

But perhaps I've shared too much.

i think the ire at her was that she was perceived as being patrician/uppity.

She is among the MOST craven and spineless of recent prominent US politicians (her war-criminal, New Deal-dismantling husband being another).

Her calculating anti-abortion strategy:

i dont like hilary but i dont think her abortion policiy is anti by any stretch, i think it is the exact same as for example, catholics for free choice, a well thought out acknowledgment that abortion is not easy, and should be reduced (and reduced by taking care of mothers to be)

she's been testing a bold and principled "tough on illegal immigration" stance.

which makes a lot of political sense, given that it's the issue on which Bush has gone most overtly to the "left" (even though it's a Chamber of Commerce position)

― gabbneb (gabbneb), Tuesday, 1 February 2005 00:42 (twenty-one years ago)

that position is also a good way for, say, Bill Richardson in particular to play against type, something a lot of people believe is going to be necessary in one form or another for a national Democrat
