Danke schoen

Oh, how nice: it seems that Hillary Clinton has picked up the endorsement of disgraced German ex-chancellor Gerhard Schroeder. Said the Russian oil oligarchy flack, at the same Saudi Arabian forum where Al Gore recently claimed that it was an outrage to hold Saudi nationals to the rules of immigration law:
"I'd be very pleased if Hillary Clinton would become the next American president," Schroeder said to applause from a largely Saudi audience at the Jeddah Economic Forum, which opened here Saturday. "But don't quote me too loud. I hope I'm not harming her by saying that."
And yet, he said it. Out loud.
Well, nobody ever said ol' Gerhard was the brightest of men. Slagging America didn't even work for him, in his own country, the last time around, after all, and he still apparently thought it might just do his hero some good in HER homeland.
Schroeder isn't the only leftist trying to help Hillary these days. The Hillarites are in full howl over the recent statement by RNC chairman Ken Mehlman, that her manifest anger would torpedo any chance she might have of getting elected president. Margaret Carlson recently wrote that the Angry-Hillary 'ploy', 'won't work'. The best part was where she suggested that the GOP might run someone angry themselves. Get a load of this:
"Funnier still, members of Mehlman's own party are quite likely to ``have a lot of anger'' for having to run on President George W. Bush's record, and I'm not just thinking of Senator John McCain, a likely presidential contender."
As if any party besides hers wanted McCain to run. He has a better chance of beating Hillary in the Dem primary than he has of ever getting the GOP nomination. Here's a tip for Margaret: you don't attack your own Manchurian candidate before the other side has been fooled into actually nominating him.
Sheesh.
