Elizabeth Edwards: "I Slept Through The 1990s"

Well, maybe that isn't exactly what she said -- but it is the only way this woman can plausibly claim she does not understand the conservative and Republican disdain and contempt for Hillary Clinton.

Elizabeth Edwards, wife of Democratic presidential candidate John Edwards, says "hatred" of his rival Hillary Rodham Clinton would motivate Republicans to vote against her in the general election.

"I want to be perfectly clear: I do not think the hatred against Hillary Clinton is justified," Elizabeth Edwards said in an interview with Time magazine out this week. "I don't know where it comes from. I don't begin to understand it. But you can't pretend it doesn't exist, and it will energize the Republican base. Their nominee won't energize them, Bush won't, but Hillary as the nominee will. It's hard for John to talk about, but it's the reality."

Well, let's see.

HillaryCare.

Cattle futures.

Whitewater.

Gennifer Flowers.

Vast Right Wing Conspiracy.

Rose Law Firm.

FBI files.

Craig Livingston.

"I don't recall."

And I think that only takes us through 1995. Does any of that ring a bell, Liz?

1 She is just covering her own a**.  Deflecting onto radical right-wingers.  The usual refusal to take responsibility.

2 The woman lost her child in 1996. She was in deep grief for years. She also went through an ordeal to bring about the births of Emma Claire - born in 1998 and Jack, born in 2000. So just maybe she had a few things to deal with other than watching Hillary Clinton's every move.

Covering her a** indeed. What is the matter with you people. Are you totally clueless or is compassion a word that has absolutely no meaning for you.

3 If she is so delicate and in need of compassion that we cannot comment on her public statements, then she and her husband need to get out of the public square.

And you'll notice -- I stopped listing at 1995. Ever consider that I did so for a reason?

4 Too funny. I enjoyed that, especially because I spent the evening lambasting her husband as a hypocritical lame brain.
