What will Hillary's coronation be like?

[originalpckelly]

I want a knighthood damnit! Only let's make ours fancier than those brits, the knights should have super long titles.

Now how exactly did God choose that the Clintons and the Bushes would be our leaders, how did we know they were born to be our kings/queens? Were they born with some neat little seal of approval from God or something?

Long live the Queen! Long live the Queen! God bless the Queen! God bless the Queen!

1. I am french and we gulliotined our monarchs.

[originalpckelly]

5. I could get used to this...

I always wanted to be a permanent second class citizen, it's going to be interesting.

[JeffR]

2. I don't like her anymore than you do

but I think this is a wee bit over the top.

[rinsd]

4. Actually, I think this is in defense of her.(nt)

[JeffR]

10. If it is, I'm not seeing it

Then again, I don't care for her, so if it is in defense, it doesn't matter much to me.

[originalpckelly]

8. Why? I'm getting fucking tired of this. You can't tell me there is any excuse...

for only 2 families to have been in the Presidency over a period of 20 years, in a nation with 300 million people. This is fucking ridiculous.

By the way, that's how it will be in 2008, not even if she's elected. If she's elected it will be 2 families in 24 years at the least, and 28 years if she's re-elected.

And about that time the nation will have forgotten about W. so his brother Jeb might have a shot.

This is a fucking empire, and I'm fucking tired of it. There has to be someone out of 300 million people capable of being President.

[JeffR]

14. If Jeb runs, he has about as much chance as she does

which I believe is: none. If she wants to run, that's her choice. Personally, I think she's wasting her time and other people's money. Donna Brazile and James Carville might be delighted, along with a very few DUers. I say the whole notion of a Clinton candidacy is a sideshow at best.

[razors edge]

23. GHW * ran the show for RAYGUN, so add 8 years. n/t

[originalpckelly]

25. That's true. He was a ditz.

What the hell is wrong with America? Kings and Queens were disliked when they established monoarchies, only when their descendents became tyrants, that's when they became so hated.

[originalpckelly]

3. Darnit, I mean Queen Hillary...

Is Bill going to be like Prince Philip or something?

[WI_DEM]

6. IF she is nominated it will be a very important and impressive milestone

as the first woman nominated by a major party for the presidency.

[sufrommich]

9. Apparently,women in America

don't get elected,they get diamond tiaras.Pay no attention to those votes cast by real people if she wins,she'll still be forced on us from on high like the queen that she is.:sarcasm:

[originalpckelly]

12. Nancy Pelosi's fine as Speaker...

why can't we find another female Senator to run for President? Or even a female Representative?

Isn't it a little outrageous that in 20 years there have only been two families in the Presidency?

[sufrommich]

15. "We" can't force anyone

to take on a run for the presidency.Clinton is running, Pelosi isn't.I'm sick of this "queen" shit.I don't believe I've ever seen a male Democrat sneered at for having "royal" aspirations.Why is that?

[originalpckelly]

17. You need to frequent DU more...

that's kind of a running theme with W here, especially because he's done illegal actions which smack of a King. And he's got the same first name as the king when we declared our independence.

[sufrommich]

20. Clinton has done nothing illegal

and there has never been a queen named Hillary to my knowledge.There is no comparison.

[fishwax]

22. sufrommich said male democrat

so GW doesn't fit the bill.

[BuyingThyme]

[Jcrowley]

11. I present to you the queen

[MonkeyFunk]

16. did you take

that directly from FreeRepublic?

For christ's sake....

[Jcrowley]

24. Nah

I just used the google search engine. Using the image section I inserted Queen Hillary. Don't know where it originates from.

[MonkeyFunk]

26. well

it's a ridiculous picture, and only a real schmuck would use it.

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

13. "Pomp & Circumstance" playing as she mounts red carpeted stairs to her new throne

and receives her crown, passed to her from El Chimpo's head?

[originalpckelly]

18. You forgot the sceptre.

[originalpckelly]

19. Dynastic politics just mentioned on Countdown!

[Tierra_y_Libertad]

21. Non-existent, most likely. At least, I hope so.
