Hillary salutes the troops
Hillary Clinton posted a Thanksgiving salute to the troops on her campaign blog this week: “Thinking of our Troops on Thanksgiving.”
It reminded me of that oldie but goodie photo–and yes, it’s real–of one our troops giving a special salute to Hillary:
Snort.

Yes, Hillary deserves that special “you’re #1″ salute. Does she really think that anyone believes she truly supports the troops? Pulease. No one with a brain is that stupid. Look what happened to our military under Bill.
She must have been explaining to the soldier why she called General Petraus a liar.
I almost lost my luch. Wait, saw the picture of “eyes” to the right. Surely going to lose it now.
Holy Cow, I read some of the post on Killery’s site and I came to a real fast solution that our school system is a giant failure. How could people be so stupid? I’m blown away.
Those comments (all 27 of them since 11/21/07) were probably planted.
I learned all I needed to know how “she who must not be named” displayed her respect for the troops when she was First Lady. From the EOD and Security Forces bomb sniffing dog handlers the Clinton’s would not allow anyone around them in uniform. I guarantee you there is no love lost between the members of our Military and this shrew who disrespected General Petraus just a few short months ago.
Is it just me or are her sycophants illiterate?
Does the first one not realize Democrats have control of the House and Senate?
HUM - wasn’t it her husband who stated that he LOATHED the military?!!!
I’m so looking forward to the general election when Shrillary gets what she so longing deserves, that lying, corrupt, commie, sack of excrement.
I agree the comments only showed the mental midgets enamored with this despicable woman. All I can say about the comment about Democrats controlling the House and Senate it was a very good thing I wasn’t drinking anything or I would be cleaning my monitor and keyboard. So out of touch with reality liberalism really is a mental disorder.
Love it when our troops stand up to the enemy, be they external or internal. This unnamed solider is doing both and deserves a double sulute!
What do you think will happen to him if shillery is elected?
The way Hillary runs he campaign, I’ll bet that the comments on her web site are written by her staff as well.
Hopefully the facade will crack big time and in public
before the election. She can’t keep this up forever, I
hope
I have noticed that while those people were no great
shakes in the looks department when the three of
them were in office, they seem to be getting less and
less attractive and in the case of Gore, fatter. I once
read that by the time you are forty you have the face
you deserve. Maybe, like Dorian Gray, they all have
portraits in the attic and someone has burned them
recently.
That gives me the same warm and fuzzy feeling I get reading “Dear Sir or Madam” at the top of my junk mail.
Notice she doesn’t say what she’s thinking.
Love the photo Michelle! I’ll be sure to give Hillary half a Boy Scout salute if she ever makes it over to Western PA.
Hillary is icky.
It looks to me like she is picking his pocket with the other hand. You know those crazy Clinton’s, they will go after a campaign donation regardless of whether it is LEGAL or NOT!!!
Hey, where did my watch go?
Didn’t she give the troops Bronx Salutes when she was FLOTUS?
Probably thinking what she could and would do to harm the troops.
I don’t get what the picture shows. It looks like a normal handshake to me.
Hillary is a despicable creature. She is so un-American, she has no business pretending she care about our military!
Pandering-period.
It would take a willing suspension of disbelief to believe that this woman cares about the troops.
That’s all I have to say about that.
Yeah, and remember all that loot they took off with when they left the White House?
Hmmm… the way her campaign is going at the moment I don’t think she’ll be POTUS, but if she IS elected do you think she’ll bring that stuff back?
No way! All that stuff’s in her paid-for-by-rich-donor-that-no-one-questioned home in Chappaqua. You know, the one she couldn’t afford to buy, but someone else did so she could get her carpetbagger senate run going.
Actually, if I am not mistaken she mortgaged the home. The rent the Secret Service had to pay for the home in the back yard was subsequently rented out to them for the same cost as the mortgage for the entire property. I would have to look up the story but that is what I recall anyhow. Maybe it was one of their other homes.
Anyhow, there is new loot for the pickings in the White House now, at least eight years worth of stuff she can use to begin decorating her next home. More keys to remove from the keyboards too!
As for her salute to the troops? I laughed until I realized that it was not a parody and people really were buying into it.
The soldier in the pic MM posted is not flicking her off but actually has his fingers crossed. I have had his picture printed as a poster for a long time and if I ever meet him on the street I am buying the beer or coffee or whatever his preferred drink of choice may be. That has got to be the most precious Kodak Moment I have ever seen in my life.
That’s what she gets for effectively forcing a soldier to serve as a prop in a photo op.
Its not as though refusing to have his picture taken with her tHighness was an option.
He fought back the only way he could.
The President called the troops in the ME and personally thanked them.
What did Hillary do?
Did she serve turkey the way Bush once did?
Did she call a NY state guard or reserve unit and wish them a happy Thanksgiving?
Did she visit a heroes’ ward at Walter Reed EVEN ONCE (the way Bush has more than once) and personally thanked our wounded troops and encourage them?
We know the answers to to the above questions.
The thought of this woman as my commander in chief makes me all warm inside. Well, actually hot and flushed with anger, is more accurate, I guess. I won’t go to her site, but I suspect that it wouldn’t make me believe her sentiment is real.
Her phoniness is soooo blatantly obvious.
Only fools see her in another way.
It is really dumbfounding, that Zell Miller and Hillary Clinton, could come from the same political party. The Democrats, were not always anti military in fact it didn’t become pronounced until William J Clinton, took office. Does that mean if the Clinton dynasty ended, that the Democrats would go back to a normal relationship, with people who have stood up and served their country, fellow Americans.
OK, I found it. I was wrong…to an extent. Initially, Terry McCauliffe was going to “lend” them money for their house, but after nonstop criticism, they took a mortgage from PNC. Not sure how they got a mortgage for the $1.8 million mansion on that income, plus millions of dollars in legal debt, but hey…it’s the Clintons! They can get away with anything! Income to debt ratio doesn’t count!
But I did find this, which I forgot about.
Care of The National Review.
So, my question is, do we really want these people back in office?
No. The Dems have sold their souls to the anti war left.There is no going back until they can repay the
debt and get out from under.
If HRC becomes POTUS that poor soldier and all of the
others will have her as C-I-C. I expect a mass exodus
from the military to civilian life and I don’t know if the
economy has the jobs to accomodate them. I’m not
saying the economy is bad, just the opposite, but we
would need A LOT of good and better paying jobs.
I just can’t believe half the country is gullible enough to vote for her. And speaking of the military, I can just imagine what they’ll do to suppress the military vote. All those mailed in ballots, etc. I’m sure they’ll show up sometime. AFTER the election. Just you wait and see.
How smart is it to be anti military after 9-11? If people are willing to kill realitives for wearing western style pants…what do the socialist think these religious extremist have planned for them- secularist? Or are they going to finally get religion at the end of a sword. They complain about other people (Christians) observing their religion. These extremist will insist you join or perish.
Do you really think that yellow dog democrats, the
really red necked cracker dems that have never admitted that the emancipation proclamation ever
happened are going to vote for either a woman or a
black man? I really think that a great part of their party is not on board for these candidates and that the
press is trying to get her into the white house by
writing and reading (tv) every article or newscast in
such a way that people will either think that they may
as well vote for her since everyone else will or that she is such a shoe in that you may as well stay home and not bother to vote for your candidate
because the election is already a done deal. They
got slick Willy elected and now they’re trying to
get their hand picked candidate in again.
I sure hope Zombie has this picture in her collection of Hillary pictures.
It’s military code for coercion.
