    NBC has provided there own EMBED code if you want to use their clip. It is higher quality and you won't have to worry it will be pulled.

    I guess Hillary won't be on SNL for a long time.
  • tbhull · 1 year ago
    Genious, honestly.
  • Sage24 · 1 year ago
    So true in that funny, ironic way. I suppose her supporters will still not get it.
    Pity.
  • Patriot · 1 year ago
    Wowwwww and Ouch! That's scathing brutal to say the least. I wonder how much attention this will get.
  • tbhull · 1 year ago
    genius, which I am not.

    Great Video.

    My dad, a two term D State Senator, said something to me that was very interesting about this race.. "there is such a thing as honesty in politics".
    Hillary lost the support of many liberal blogs when she became a dishonest broker. It keeps getting worse and worse for her, as this skit shows. Even S&L are starting to pick up the ball now. Hillary lost on the issues, and honestly. Now, she continues to walk down the path of self destruction, attempting to take everyone with her, as she lays a blatently dishonest claim backed up by mean spirited angry justificactions. It's really sad to see, and we will be lucky to win this fall if she continues these themes.

    On a seperate not, what in the world is going on over at MY DD, and why on earth are they still pushing this divide?
    It amazes me that a co author of "Crashing the Gate" could justify a Democrat using Nixon style 1960 talking points in a modern election. It is just nuts. Even if Obama loses, it has been worth learning what we have learned about ourselves in this process. The truth hurts.... but the sunlight is the only way to bring about meaningful change in this country. One can only hope... that in 8 years... this new found "Clinton Demographic" will be voters over 53, not 45... and we will see progress past this fearful, angry, mean spirited campaign.

    The one good thing about the demographic of the Clinton supporter is that they are old. This type of campaigning will lose its impact as time marches on.

    The George Bush Presidential Library and Museum voluntarily disclosed a list of donors giving more than $10,000 at its opening, with the exception of a "few" who asked to remain anonymous, according to the library's executive director Dr. Roman Popadiuk.....

    The little that is known about the identities of the donors to the Clinton library was reported by the New York Sun in 2004, after a reporter discovered the names on a touch-screen computer on the third floor of the library after its opening.

    Members of the Saudi royal family, Arab businessmen, the governments of Dubai, Kuwait, Qatar, Brunei and Taiwan, and Hollywood celebrities, were among the 57 individuals or foundations who gave $1 million or more to the library, according to the Sun.

    The computer with the list of donors was disconnected after the Sun article ran. At the time, Clinton officials said that a permanent list of donors contributing $100,000 or more would eventually be installed on a wall at the library.

    Even me that HATES hilary saw that was ROUGH,HARSH BUT CALLED FOR.

    DAMN, they KILLED her, DAMN.

    but, the truth of the matter is that that is what she is BASICALLY saying, that her voters are racist, she would rather destroy her party than see obama win (sore loser) and she will STOP at nothing in doing so (NO ETHICAL STANDARDS).

    so yes it was harsh but TRUEEEEEEEEEE.

    i cannot believe SNL had the guts to do it, damn i GIVE THEM RESPECT after this.

  • Bush_Bites · 1 year ago
    The New York Times has compiled the first comprehensive list of 97 donors who gave or pledged a total of $69 million for the Clinton presidential library in the final years of the Clinton administration. The examination found that while some $1 million contributors were longtime Clinton friends, others were seeking policy changes from the administration. Two pledged $1 million each while they or their companies were under investigation by the Justice Department.

    Other donations came from supporters who had been ensnared in campaign finance scandals surrounding Mr. Clinton’s 1996 re-election campaign.

    In raising record sums for her campaign, Mrs. Clinton has tapped many of the foundation’s donors. At least two dozen have become “Hillraisers,” each bundling $100,000 or more for her presidential bid. The early library donors, combined with their families and political action committees, have contributed at least $784,000 to Mrs. Clinton’s Senate and presidential coffers.

    The foundation and Mrs. Clinton’s political campaigns have been intertwined in other ways. Terry McAuliffe, who led the foundation’s fund-raising and sits on its board, is now Mrs. Clinton’s campaign chairman and chief fund-raiser. Cheryl Mills plays a similar dual role, sitting on the foundation board and serving as the general counsel to Mrs. Clinton’s campaign. And Jay Carson recently traded a communications position at the foundation for a job as her campaign’s press secretary.

    I have to wonder about the liberal bogs that continue to push these hate filled talking points, and disingenuous machinations that justify a “Clinton path to victory”. Is it a code, or a policy- not to debate another liberal bog on these issues? I have noticed, there has been little to no play on what some in “our party” have been trying to sell us. Is that a function of wanting to unite…? If so, I disagree… we cannot stomach this kind of unfairness and bigotry, especially from those on “our side”. Is there going to be any self policing and demand for explanations in this forum? These folks are pushing party division and racism, and it is wrong! It seems it is impossible to post on most of these sites... they must have big filters on, to avoid most crtical anlaysis that forces self reflection.
  • Rainlion · 1 year ago
    Brutally funny... the Hillary supporters must have lost their minds when they saw it last night. Guess that explains the mood over at NoQuarter... after complaining about sites like DKos censoring people - they're now doing it.

    Pretty sad when you embrace that which you once derided. But that's okay... this clip is freakin' hilarious!
  • kevinbgoode · 1 year ago
    omg...I thought that WAS Hillary.
  • naschkatzehussein · 1 year ago
    There's a video called "Hillary's Downfall" on TheBradBlog. It's the funniest g-d thing on Clinton I've ever seen. It's a spoof using the German movie, "The Downfall", with all new and timely subtitles.
  • Bludevlsadvocate · 1 year ago
    PCVirginiaBeach,

    I wander over to MyDD occasionally and I am glad and I am not the only one wondering what they are smoking over there. WHAT IS WRONG WITH THOSE PEOPLE?

    The intellectual dishonesty is so thick I thought I had linked to Redstate.org by mistake. I thought only right-wingers engaged in such exercises, but I see those over here on the left can do it just as well.
  • cmpnwtr · 1 year ago
    Help me out, someone? John ? The Clinton brand is doing down the toilet and into the sewer by the minute. Why is she still in this? This SNL piece is simply mirroring what's going on across the country. If she wante
  • pcvirginiabeach · 1 year ago
    Wow... "No Quarter" is nothing but hate filled. Really nasty stuff. Please tell me this is not a "liberal" blog!
  • Dave of the Jungle · 1 year ago
    Ya gotta love SNL.
  • cmpnwtr · 1 year ago
    MyDD has been a cesspool for several months. Jerome Armstrong has been a Clinton exclusive propaganda outlet without shame. Those people are in crisis! When it becomes official the nomination is over, they are going to need some mental health treatment there. Similar deal at Talkleft and Leftcoaster..
  • beltman713 · 1 year ago
    The Obama haters have really come out, in force, at the youtube page for this video.
  • jr · 1 year ago
    Amy Poehler rocks
  • dad · 1 year ago
    i guess SNL has decided to switch trains.

    ALL ABOARD!
  • Dave of the Jungle · 1 year ago
    The Hillary bots are restless.
  • catty · 1 year ago
    Hillary may think she can run again in a few years , Nobody will forget this campaign and not hold it aganist her. The clinton name is officially tarnished.
    If she holds on to her senate seat that would be a miracle. Who wants to be aligned with a racist or a race baiter except the few that think her way?
    How could any minority back her when she and her surrogates have singled out White votes only count? She has a lot of crow to eat when she concedes this primary race.

    Hi John.

    I think you are correct; that video is going to taken down. But not to worry, it's up at HULU. (It's a NBC and FOX site--it does have 10 second commercials.)

    http://www.hulu.com/watch/19689/saturday-night-...

    Pop that video back up as soon as Youtube rips down this one.

    It can be viewed in higher quality over there, but they do have micro commercials.
  • MotorCityBadBoy · 1 year ago
    OH.MY.GOD. That was tooooooo funny! Perfect!
  • BorninUSA · 1 year ago
    Saw this last night. Watch your back Amy. Hillary will not take kindly to this.
  • zavlin · 1 year ago
    This is pretty sweet. Especially after hillary's SNL love affair i'd love to see her staffers faces after watching this.
  • pcvirginiabeach · 1 year ago
    Blud- No kiddin man! Remember... MY DD co authored "Crashing the Gate" with KOS. Now if that is not irony, I do not know what is!
    There are several bloggers there who have not completely lost it.. and are trying to patch together some kind of gracefull exit... but they are in many ways pushing the Republican talking points right now (just like Hillary) and one has to wonder if or how they will ever get back to supporting our nominee.
  • MorgaineSwann · 1 year ago
    Wow - that's hysterical and it required no creativity whatsoever - all they had to do was state the case. Are the Clintons in such a bubble that they don't understand how they look to others?

    Expect it to get worse, because Hillary has a lot of racist supporters in KY and WV. She's going to win huge if Obama doesn't do something exceptional between now and then.
  • beltman713 · 1 year ago
    Lol! It got pulled. It made all the way up to the top 10, now it's gone. Someone else posted it too, their's made to the top 20, it got pulled as well.

    Here is a link to a reposted youtube video...

  • FatRat · 1 year ago
    I see the video is being yanked off Youtbe. Click on this link and you can watch it (after a 10 second commercial). This link is stable and can't be taken down. Click on this link, to view the video.

    Take a look at this, buried in today's SF Chronicle:

    Down for the count: If you're looking for evidence that the race is really over for Hillary Rodham Clinton, look no further than California, the state that handed her one of her biggest primary victories back in February.

    There are still 22 uncommitted Democratic superdelegates in California, accounting for one-fourth of the nationwide total and by far the most of any state.

    As of Friday, 31 superdelegates from California were pledged to Clinton and 18 to Barack Obama - including two uncommitted delegates who moved to his corner late in the week.

    "California has been this backbone for (Clinton) - and the fact is, she hasn't closed the sale with the state's superdelegates," said NBC political director Chuck Todd, whose team has been crunching the numbers.

    "If they haven't come out for her by now, they aren't coming out for her," Todd said.

    Todd points to a couple of possible explanations for California superdelegates' fence-sitting - one being that Obama might have overtaken Clinton in the state had the primary been held a couple of weeks later.

    And indeed, a CBS 5-TV/Survey USA poll of California Democratic voters last week showed that if the primary were held today, Obama would win by six points. As it was, Clinton was the one who won on Feb. 4, by nine points.
