Defeating Terrorism, One Mango at a Time
**Written by Doug Powers
Hillary Clinton is in Pakistan, and, as you’ll soon learn from a CNN reporter, she may have discovered the secret to bringing down militants in the area: Mangos:
Hillary Clinton has lots to worry about in Pakistan, but she has found one thing she can wholeheartedly embrace: Pakistani mangos.
The U.S. Secretary of State was treated to a mango dessert during dinner with Pakistani President Asif Ali Zardari and they clearly won a fan — Clinton repeatedly raved about the fruit.
“We’ll get a lot of people hooked on Pakistani mangos,” Clinton told a “townhall”-style meeting in Islamabad, where she was on an official visit.
Mangos came up again at a press conference with Pakistan’s foreign minister, and yet again at a roundtable with Pakistani journalists.
[...]
Clinton suggested mangos might be one place to start when discussing benefits of better trade cooperation, including Pakistani requests for improved market access.
CNN’s Pakistan-based international correspondent explains how Hillary’s “peace through mangoes” program will work:
SAYAH: “Well, I think the U.S., the Obama administration, is convinced that this is the right approach. In addition to the military approach, you have to have an economic approach. They say it’s an interesting project here. If Mrs. Clinton has her way in the months and years to come, Pakistan will export more of its delicious and very juicy mangoes. Americans will eat them. It will all be a part of the fight against militants.”
Why can’t Hillary just hand ‘em that stupid “re-set” button and make it all better just like she did with Russia?
Besides, I’m not sure if I can handle any more food — I’ve already been eating dried fruit and nuts by the bushel to help bring down the Taliban in Afghanistan and so far it’s not having much of an effect.
In any case, Bill Clinton stayed behind as Hillary flew overseas and is busy grabbing as many mangoes as possible to do his part for the war effort.

Sounds like the mango lobby has gotten to her!
Clinton: “Oooh I just love these mangos but I’m afraid they’ll go right to my cankles!”
Is there a Mango Peace Prize, sorta like the Nobel Peace Prize? That would be a good award for Hil-Bill bringing the mangoes to Western Civilization.
Pakistan: You give us billions of dollars and we give you case of mangos.
Clinton: Okay!
I thought interns had pears not mangos?
Mangos???? Is this a MO approved fruit? How about arugula? The taliban will just jump at the chance to trade poppy fields for mango orchards.
I can see it now; Obamacare 2911, HR1666, Section 203, sub section 13, para. g will state:
“All Americans over the age of 18 insured under this legislation are required to consume one Pakistani grown mango per day or must pay a fine equal to 1% of their gross annual income for that taxable year.”
Gosh I love mangos too. Just had a huge disappointment. Went to Hawaii and all the mangos in the store were from Mexico.
I am still waiting for the OIL we were suppose to get from Iraq – remember that?
Hillary must be getting set for a 2012 run. Lots of publicity trips and obviously some cosmetic surgery too. She is looking hot. rrrrrruff ruff.
That’s because the locals eat them all off the trees when they’re still green.
I NEVER eat food from another country. I try not to eat produce from anywhere but my garden.
Hillary: Can I get this mango taste in a wine? How about a margarita, a Mai Tai?
Any drink with alcohol in it because I loooove it. Alcohol that is. Do they grow mangos in the States?
Control yourself there RedDog.
Wait…… are you saying she looks like a dog???
from what I hear Obama’s not averse to grabbing a few fruits from time to time either. ;0)
oh comon! Just a joke… (or isit???)
Oh…gag. The LSM reporting this is trying to make HClinton seem like “one of the good guys” while she gives away OUR taxpaying money to a bunch of Al queda/Taliban loving terrorists. This woman is crazy!
I sincerely hope that Hillary’s career tanks right along side Obambi’s. She & Billy Clinton are just as guilty of destroying the country as Obama. Out with all of them forever.
What do we have to eat to be rid of Mexican drug cartels?
Not sure about that, but supposedly in a SI interview, Reggie Love said he and Obama go “one on one” a lot and the prez likes the low post.
Absolutely. Same way buying oil from the Saudi Arabia helps in the fight against terrorism.
What? Why’s everybody staring at me like that?
I love reading about all of the important achievements that Hillary is racking up as SecState. Eating mangos, gushing about mangos, uh, geese, are there any others?
Well, they say BIG OIL has funded terror for years. Now we have to worry about BIG FRUIT.
Wait until Puerto Rico hears about this! …
Yes indeed, Americans WILL eat them, as direceted by Section CCXXXVI, subsection 871b, paragraph 33 of the OBAMACARE Dietary Code, or NO HEALTHCARE FOR YOU!*
*Nonconsumption subject to substantial mandatory financial penalty as prescribed by the IRS.
What ever happened to holding hands and singing “Kumbaya”? I thought that would bring peace. So now, we’re supposed to hold one hand, hum Kumbaya, while eating a mango? Want to get on the news and lots of grant money? Tell the MSM, mangoes have trans fat.
Yeah, what are Hillarys achievments in the last couple of years? She seems to be just riding out the time. No major things she can get credit for, no big press coverage. Just lying low for Obama. Or for herself? I don’t believe she does anything for someone else.
Obama doesn’t want to give her any big kudos. He has another election to win and she may run against him. After he is reelcted, they will build Hillary up for 2016.
Mr. President, we must not allow a mango gap!
Pakistan has things other than mangoes that show up in the US, WITHOUT any bozonomic support system.
For example, some of the hemostat forcept medical instruments I have are stamped “Made in Pakistan”… I get them thru a large supply chain. Some come from Argentina, and elsewhere.
We live in a global economy. We don’t need bozomas to help us with global trade as much as we just need the bozomas to get the hell out of the way of free trade.
What is it with this Reggie Love? I came across the name for the first time in Laura Ingraham’s new book and now it pops up everywhere. I thought that was just a character in a John Grisham novel played by Susan Sarandon in the movie version (the Client). Anyway I assume this one’s a dude? still haven’t seen a picture though.
Buddy Love’s brother? You know, the guy that drives the pns-car.
Great – she just legitimized terrorism funding
I say mango, you say infidel.
Speaking of mango, I found this on the interwebs. I’m not sure what it means, maybe the double rainbow guy could translate.
“Can you catch a falling star without burning your hand? Can you put the sky in your mouth? Can you say to an earthquake..’hey hold still for a second’? No! Such is Mango!”
“Can you know the mighty ocean? Can you lasso a star from the sky? Can you say to a rainbow… ‘Hey, stop being a rainbow for a second’? No! such is Mango!”
“Can you take the blue from the sky? Can you put the wind in your pocket? Can you catch a rainbow? No! Such is Mango!”
“No Mango for you! Why must I be Mango? Why I ask? Why God, why? Why can’t I be someone normal like John Ritter?”
“Mango is like a drug. You must have more and more and more of the Mango until there is no Mango left. Not even for Mango!”
“You can’t a have a the Mango!”
“No Go away! I don’t like you!”
“NO! Go! Get away! Get away! I just want to be alone! Mango wants to be alone!”
“You thought what? That I was what? A homo-gay wee-hoo! NO! Mango is as straight as they come!!”
“Why does everyone think I’m GAY!?!”
I tried a couple of mangoes when I visited St Croix a few months back. Don’t know if they were local or not, but I was unimpressed. The fruit was tough and stringy and there was a VERY large pit in the middle. I’ll stick to apples, thanks.
I have a mango tree in my yard. Can’t give the damn things away. They fall off the tree and stink, draw flies, and are a pain to pick up.
Let me guess they will be grown in the Afghan Poppy fields….
Everything you really didn’t need to know about Reggie Love. No charge.
That may be the one big disadvantage to not having Hillary win. Her “body woman” during the campaign was the lovely, lovely Huma Abedin.

Chris Kattan on Saturday Night Live played the character Mango, remember?
Depends. Some are fuzzy peaches, some are pears, some might be oranges, some might be grapefruits.
The question is, are they sagging?
Gee RedDog, you been downrange awhile?
Has she dodged any snipper fire yet?
Well, I’m done with fruits and nuts for now. Just got me some corn beef hash.
Can’t she even mention Florida mangos??

I doubt Huma Abedin is really “lovely, lovely” when she’s willing to marry Anthony Weiner, who is a control freak prone to temper tantrums. But, who knows, maybe love will conquer all this time. Money can’t buy love, but money and vast power might do the trick.
Our State Department is soooo far out of control, it is scary. The last 50 years of LET’S BUY FRIENDS AND INFLUENCE PEOPLE approach through the UN and State Department has bankrupted us and not made a single significant difference in our diplomatic agenda. Israel is still our only reliable ally in the middle east. Europe still doesn’t hate us, but resents us for saving their butts from themselves. China and Asia see us as financial if not military enemies and MORONS for our policies they use to squeeze us. Africa takes our money and laughs at our naivette while the Presisdent for Life banks the money in Switzerland and buys guns for his militia from China. Ditto South and Central America, but these leaders also have the UNDESIREABLE MIGRATION POLICY, which assists in helping criminals and drug addicts find their way into the U.S.
Sound like some of the denizens of downtown Los Angeles. Who knew they have something in common with mangos.
That would be out of step with the Obama-genda to destroy the US economy.
“We’ll get a lot of people hooked on Pakistani mangos, just like we got them hooked on illegal drugs from Mexico and Afghanistan. It’s a great source of funding for our political coffers, and it dumbs down our constituents enough that they allow us free reign…” Clinton told a “townhall”-style meeting in Islamabad, where she was on an official visit.
“Ooops.” She added.
This is the same Hillary who told Greta that the problems in Afghanistan and Pakistan were all Americas fault. We funded the mujahadeen in the fight against the Soviets and then just left them and this is what we get.
I guess I missed the part where we told them to train to take over Afghanistan, make it a failed brutal Islamic State, and plot mass murder in the US.
As a Secretary of State, you are supposed to advocate for the country you work for. If you can’t figure out a way to make America look good, you should keep your mouth shut. Af-stan and P-stan countries can advocate that bs for themselves. How about you stand up for America for once? At least stand up for American mangoes you traitor.
Secretary of State and traitor in the same sentence. Is that an oxymoron or is she just a moron?
This is IVY LEAGUE SMART DIPLOMACY.
It would be funny, if it wasn’t sad.
I’m with you.
The part they left out is that all mango trees in the U.S. are to be destroyed as a stimulus for demand.
