On Jan. 6, 2008, speaking to an adoring audience in Hampton, then Senator and former First Lady Hillary Clinton dismissively said this about Russian president Vladimir Putin:
“Most leaders are not going to make decisions based on their personal relationships. You know, this is the president [referring to George W. Bush] that looked into the soul of Putin [and liked what he saw]. I could have told him this was a KGB agent and by definition he doesn’t have a soul. [Audience titters] It’s a waste of time, right?” [Audience titters]
Putin answers:
“At least the state figure should have a head,” that is, a secretary of state should have better sense.
Obama picks his nose
Five years ago, if I said the President of Russia would comport himself in a classier fashion than an American president, would you have believed me?
I wouldn’t!
As for Hillary saying “Most leaders are not going to make decisions based on their personal relationships,” she must not mean her husband Bill. [Snark]
From Britannica Concise Encyclopedia‘s entry on Hillary Rodham Clinton:
When her husband became president (1993), she wielded power and influence almost unprecedented for a first lady.
