Clinton Reminisces About Her Life Growing Up on the Plantation

For the NY Sun:

Martin Luther King Jr. fought four decades ago to free black Americans from the legacy of slavery. Yesterday, Senator Clinton compared the Republican leadership of the current House of Representatives to the very idea the civil rights leader dedicated his life to fighting.

"When you look at the way the House of Representatives has been run - it has been run like a plantation," she said. "You know what I'm talking about."

Oh, I sho’ do Massa’ Clinton. Thank you for warnin’ us at da slave house… Ok, but seriously, if I recall correctly slavery was made illegal by the 13th Amendment in 1865. So anyone born on a slave plantation would be like 140. So much for anyone remembering life on the plantation. And she thinks you are buying her act as a moderate...
