Clinton Impersonates Jack Nicholson

Share

April 12, 2008 7:22 PM

ABC News' Eloise Harper reports: Sen. Hillary Clinton did her best impression of Jack Nicholson for the crowds of Indiana this afternoon. Up in the crowds Clinton saw a sign that read "Real Men Vote for Hillary." Clinton pointed it out after the men had yelled, "We love you Hillary."

The senator then said to the audience, "One of the highlights of this campaign is when out of the blue Jack Nicholson endorsed me. And he called up a radio station in Los Angeles," Clinton said before switching to a deep, husky voice to say, "You know, I’ve been thinking, I’m for the woman.

"And we went on to say," Clinton said, turning again to that same voice, "real men are for Hillary."

Barack Obama seems to be getting the endorsements of all the key heavy weights. Hillary on the other hand seems to be picking up all the weirdoes. Although she does have the backing of Bill and Chelsea Clinton and a lot of New Yorkers. She had the backing of Eliot Spitzer before he was thrown out.

Obama supporters are deranged. Only the heavy weights are endorsing Obama? They should actually read the endorsements before making such ludicrous statements. But, then again, if they actually read and were informed, they wouldn't be supporting Obama.

Obama people do you always have to be so "bitter"? Can't you support your canidate without being so negative? I guess the "change and hope" doesn't go but so far.

Bishop and Jack51, here's the difference:

Hillary WILL drop out.

If not, they'll THROW her out.

Tucker- Methinks De Niro may have already changed his mind about your pal, Obama, after his beloved Rev. Wright branded Italians as "garlic noses."

Let's review: your candidate and/or his surrogates have distain for Caucasians, Jews, Italians, PA gun-toting-church-going voters, gays, and America.

Now that's what I call equal representation!

When I was a kid (here in Sweden) I was told by my father that there were a few differences between the Republicans and the Democrats but the similarities far outweighed the differences. They (Democrats and Republicans) were at all times pro-American, anti-Communist and anti-Socialist.

Now, a few decades later, I can no longer find differences between the typical "blame-America, more government is the solution, war is always bad, Global Climate Change (or was it Global Warming?) is more dangerous than Global Jihad, Islam is a religion of peace and if the US just leaves Iraq there will magically be peace there"-Socialist political party of Western Europe, and the Democrat Party. And it is sad... But hey, keep "hoping" and "changing". I'm sure that one day you will finally become a "kind" nation like France or Germany.

Good luck Democrats, whomever you choose, and don’t forget to tell your candidate to ask Hugo, Mahmoud, Hu, the Saudi Royal family, Raul, the EU and all other brave “leaders” for forgiveness for being such an evil empire that dares to fight something as insignificant as human evil.

Yes, we need another Clinton to clean up the Bush's mess.
Obama's followers are so bitter toward Hillary, that's the change and hope that Obama is preaching. Just like Rev Wright... hate America.
HILLARY 08! THE PROUD AMERICAN ALL THE TIME.

I too will quote Jack by saying to Hillary: 'You can't handle the truth!' Truth is what Barack Obama speaks and what the American people need right now.

Posted by: Tiffany Martinson | Apr 12, 2008 10:02:59 PM

hey rc wake up! the saint made his comments at the getty manshion,you know getty oil,that same day he held 3 fundraisers for the elite in san francisco and raised a total of 3 million from super rich doners.so don't give me the nonsense he is only getting small donations as it is a bold face lie.also the wall street journal reported that he has taken vastly more money from the drug companies and commercial banks than any other candidate.he is a fraud.

Posted by: don tufts | Apr 12, 2008 11:15:31 PM

There are people who feel the country is headed in the wrong direction. Hillary Clinton is blatantly ignoring the Gallup poll, and for got Jack Nicholson also gave us the line..."THE TRUTH? YOU CAN'T HANDLE THE TRUTH."

Which is why Clinton lied about Bosnia, Bill lied about Monica, and on they go.

Posted by: kravitz | Apr 12, 2008 11:28:09 PM

The truth? The truth is the only reason Obama is where he is in this election is because he a "black" man that doesn't come across too "black." It is not his experience or wisdom. It is not his unique ideas - because he doesn't have any. It is not his ability to be President or Commander in Chief. He would be worse for us than Bush or McCain. Oh, and another bit of truth. Hillary is not only the best candidate running, but she is one of the best in general. I will do everything I can as a concerned citizen to make sure she wins and is our next President. All you Obama supporters: Please go home on voting day. You are ruining our Country's chances to move ahead and better itself. If you want a black President - a real one - move to Africa!

Who cares what nimwit celebrity endorses who? Did Chuck Norris make Mike Huckabee the nominee?

I rest my case.

What is important is what vulnerable, Blue Dog Democrats do in their endorsements. If a lot of them tip Obama, then their considered political judgment is that Obama is better for THEIR chances at reelection. If they go Hillary, then the same applies.

I say this as a Republican, if Dems want the strongest nominee they'll go with the aggregate considered political judgment of people who have something on the line -- their own reelection in Red districts.

Jack, Scarlett, and Robert De Niro are distractions. They're good at acting. Would you hire them as your campaign manager?

Posted by: Jim Rockford | Apr 13, 2008 1:10:36 AM

I was wondering if you believe Obama was speaking the truth, why did he say he regreted saying it? If he was not speaking the truth, why did he have to defend it for two days, explained it three times, before he finally admitted regrets? Oh, he was lying got caught, but you got to know what he means.

He was trying to fool you to start with, and trying to fool you again now. He wants both ways on everything because he thinks the voters are not as smart as he. Confused? Good. That's what he wanted. Pick the side you feel good about whether or not he has insulted you to begin with.

He is a classical hypocrat.

I want to vote for NONE OF THE ABOVE (and you can throw in McCain too)!!!

We've Already Had One
Clinton Clean Up After A Bush, Let's Do It Again!!!!!!
And who's going to clean up
after THIS clinton turns the
great republic of the United
States into a Soviet style
socialist utopia? With a
democrat majority in Congress
it can happen.

Hillary-- just to clear up a little confusion, occasionally playing a real man in a movie doesn't make you one.

Posted by: David | Apr 13, 2008 10:13:27 AM

"You know, I’ve been thinking, I’m for the woman. And we went on to say," Clinton said, turning again to that same voice, "real men are for Hillary." BARF.
Yea, Jack has always been for the little ladies, just like Billy Jeff.
What is it about actors and the idiots who fawn all over them that allows them to feel as though the political views of Hollyweird are important or intelligent?
My money is on Jack denying that he said this...

Posted by: Christie | Apr 13, 2008 12:58:58 PM

Jack Nicholson and Hillary Clinton
Not so Perfect Together!
Hillary Clinton "Can't handle the Truth"
and she Can't Tell the Truth!
She can't handle the truth that her chances of winning the Democrat Nomination for president are slim and
none! She can't or won't tell the truth
about the Bosnia Trip, her support for
NAFTA, The Irish Peace Process, The Phony story about her being named after
Sir Edmund Hillary, The Phony story about Chelsea jogging around Manhattan
during 9/11!
Go Home Hillary and take Bill with you!

Obama has been saying that words are important. He chooses bad words to describe small town America. What does this say about Obama? Now words don't matter? Do we want such a person for President? It is too risky to gamble on Obama. Hillary should be the candidate against McCain.

Posted by: Jim | Apr 13, 2008 2:57:48 PM

In the past election the Republicans kicked our butts.
Question: where were you Hillarys and Obamas hiding then.
Now that the fight is among fellow democrats you sound so tough.
I bet that among all the people participating in this kind of blogs there are at least 80% republicans just having fun trying to divide us.
Wake up falks and smell the coffee. Or is it café.
Obama or Clinton will kick Republicans butt this time around.
In november you will have to vote for either one of them.
Cheers.

I think it's time to consider the "man who should be president". If Hillary can't stop Obama and I hope she can, she could throw her support behind
"the best man" for the job...Al Gore!

HILLARY'S POOR JUDGMENT leaves AMERICANS FOOTING THE Bill


.
THE WAR IN IRAQ IS HAVING SERIOUS NEGATIVE EFFECTS ON OUR ECONOMY and those who voted for the war (i.e. hillary) should be to blame, in part, for the state of the US economy.


Look how the WAR IN IRAQ is affecting the US economy...


$3,000,000,000… 3 Billion dollars PER WEEK!


That is the amount America is paying for the Iraq War PER WEEK, money that should have been used here, at home.


Add to this:


Interest. We are financing the war with borrowed money (e.g. treasuries) that carries interest; so in actuality, the war is costing the United States MORE THAN 3 billion dollars PER WEEK.

Higher oil and energy prices. Instability in Iraq is adding roughly 30 dollars per barrel as a premium.

High utility bills. High oil prices mean high utility bills. Higher oil prices shifts demand to other sources of energy - gas, coal, etc. - and greater demand will raise the equilibrium price of all sources of energy -- Can you say high energy bills?

Higher oil prices (a raw material used in the production of many goods, fertilizers, gasoline, diesel, plastics, etc.) mean higher prices of goods and services -- Can you say INFLATION?

Higher oil prices mean a higher trade deficit because most of our oil comes from foreign sources. A higher trade deficit means more money is leaving the country than is coming into the country -- Can you say Goodbye to your hard-earned money!

Our dollar is weak and getting weaker. Since we have a trade deficit and is growing in large part to the rising cost of imported oil, the value of goods and services we import exceeds the value of goods we export. You know that foreign car you're thinking of buying or the computer you're using, or that trip abroad you've been thinking of taking....well, guess what? It is going to cost more, Ceteris Peribus, because the dollar is weak and getting weaker.

Lastly, how do you think the world views our country since the argument was made for war? The evidence was weak and circumstantial, yet we rushed into war with Iraq thanks to hillary’s authorization.

Hillary VOTED FOR THE WAR

Poor Hillary, she was born with her foot in her mouth, to paraphrase a past Texas Governor. She knows Obama has too much class to toss her a few questions such as...
Why did you do TRAVEL GATE?
Why did you hide the VINCE FOSTER FILES?
Why did you take money at the ROSE LAW FIRM?
Why did you take gifts FROM THE WHITE HOUSE WHEN YOU LEFT?
Why did you lie about BOSNIA?
Why can't the press question CHELSEA?
Why does this DAUGHTER think her family is the ONLY family for the White House. She's been there once, wasn't that enough?
Why were most of your CHARITABLE DONATION GIVEN TO FAMILY FUNDED ORGANIZATIONS?
Why do you bring up WRIGHT'S COMMENTS, and not address "I DID NOT HAVE SEX WITH THAT WOMAN!" issue.
Why do you keep wearing slacks, and a yellow blazer?
AND FINALLY...
WHAT KIND OF MAKEUP / FACE LIFT DID YOU HAVE TO MAKE YOU LOOK WRINKLY-FREE ON DAY, AND THE NEXT DAY, LIKE A TIRED 60 YEAR OLD WOMAN. Now that is a trick!

GET LOST GRANNY! YOU ARE YESTERDAY'S OLD POLITICAL MACHINE, WE HAVE A CANDATE WHO DOESN'T RUN ON HOT AIR!

GOOOOOOOO BARACH! Give us our country back. You are 100% right. WE ARE BITTER ABOUT BUSINESS AS USUAL IN WASINGTON AND BEING FORGOTTEN.

Yikes! It's a cornucopia of vitriol, angst, disgust - with lines blurred.

Awesome!

The Hill screeching like banshee, drinkin' like a trucker; BB keepin' her on her toes while dodging fruit and veggies; and Mac Attack - sleeping and drooling in the corner.

Aboslutely Awesome!
