Maureen Dowd, "The Speaker, the Pope and the Exorcism": The Devil Wears Pantsuits



In a New York Post article entitled "Secret Service agents: Hillary is a nightmare to work with" by Deroy Murdock, we learn that Hillary Clinton is being accused of conduct which would put Miranda Priestly from "The Devil Wears Prada" to shame. As reported by Murdock:

"“‘Good morning, ma’am,” a member of the uniformed Secret Service once greeted Hillary Clinton.

“F— off,” she replied.

That exchange is one among many that active and retired Secret Service agents shared with Ronald Kessler, author of “First Family Detail,” a compelling look at the intrepid personnel who shield America’s presidents and their families — and those whom they guard.

. . . .

“We spent years with her,” yet another Secret Service agent notes. “She never said thank you.”

  • Within the White House, Hillary had a “standing rule that no one spoke to her when she was going from one location to another,” says former FBI agent Coy Copeland. “In fact, anyone who would see her coming would just step into the first available office.”

One former Secret Service agent states, “If Hillary was walking down a hall, you were supposed to hide behind drapes used as partitions.”"

Charming.

Meanwhile, in her latest New York Times op-ed entitled "The Speaker, the Pope and the Exorcism," Maureen Dowd provides us with a "hillarious" imaginary conversation between departing Speaker of the House John Boehner and his boneheaded presumptive successor, Kevin McCarthy. Dowd writes:

"“Kevin, did you make another mess I gotta clean up?” the Speaker growls. “Stop blubbering. That’s my department. Obviously, you really stepped in it with that Benghazi crack on ‘Hannity.’ You told Sean that I get a B-minus as speaker? I give you a D for Dumbo."

Might McCarthy's blunder save Hillary's candidacy? Has Christmas arrived three months early for the Clintons? I don't think so. You see, rather than help douse the flames of Hillary's email scandal, The International Association of Fire Fighters has decided not to endorse her, and instead, has opted to await Joe Biden's entry into the fray.

Care to imagine Hillary's response to this latest setback? My guess is that it didn't bear semblance to Tiny Tim's "God bless us, everyone."
