Forgot the Asterisk
During a speech in New Hampshire, Hillary Clinton said that “the economy just works better when we have a Democrat in the White House”.
Only when he listens to the Republican majority in Congress.
Odd Relationship

(Submitted by AT via Daily Caller [High Praise!])
CAUTION: This is pretty good right up until “Michael Cohen” starts dropping f-bombs in his “tweet” (4 down from the picture of the crane).

Wrong Lesson
During an interview on CBS, Hillary Clinton commented philosophically on Benghazi “we live in a dangerous world… we have to learn things”.
The lessons of 9/11/01 apparently not among them.
Obama Warned Us – Planet Repair
“I refuse to leave our children a planet that’s beyond their capacity to repair.” — President Obama #OurOcean2015
“Of course, since I don’t know HOW to repair a planet, that’s probably exactly how badly I’d break it. Like when I tried to fix the faucet and flooded the kitchen.”
Straight Line of the Day: Hillary Clinton’s Worst Nightmare…
Works like this: I feed you Moon Nukers a straight line, and you hit me with a punch line in the comments.
Hillary Clinton’s worst nightmare…
Navy
240 years ago today, the Second Continental Congress passed a resolution, establishing what is today, the United States Navy:
“Resolved, That a swift sailing vessel, to carry ten carriage guns, and a proportionable number of swivels, with eighty men, be fitted, with all possible despatch, for a cruise of three months, and that the commander be instructed to cruize eastward, for intercepting such transports as may be laden with warlike stores and other supplies for our enemies, and for such other purposes as the Congress shall direct.
That a Committee of three be appointed to prepare an estimate of the expence, and lay the same before the Congress, and to contract with proper persons to fit out the vessel.
Resolved, that another vessel be fitted out for the same purposes, and that the said committee report their opinion of a proper vessel, and also an estimate of the expence.”
Happy birthday, Navy.
We have some old Navy personnel around IMAO, both in the comments, and on the writing side. (Thinking of you, Harvey.) And, I’ve got a next door neighbor that flies the Navy flag every day, just under his U.S. flag.
Do me a favor, will you? Go find a sailor and buy him lunch. Or a drink. Or shake his hand and thank him for his service.
Easy for Her to Say
During an interview on CBS, Hillary Clinton said “we need to recognize that the debate over the Affordable Care Act is over”.
Spoken like a true Obamacare exemptee.
