New York – Senator Hillary Clinton, D-N.Y., took time out from an event commemorating 9/11 to take a swipe at a campaign commercial by John Spencer, her likely Republican opponent in November.
In the commercial, slated to run in New York City and on suburban cable stations, Spencer, the former mayor of Yonkers, accuses Clinton of being soft on national security issues and as such, aiding al-Qaida strongman Osama bin Laden.
It was Clinton who helped lead the Democratic attempt to filibuster the renewal of the Patriot Act, though she eventually voted for it.
The controversial Spencer commercial proceeds to superimpose images of Clinton and bin Laden together.
An angry Sen. Clinton told a group of huddled reporters: “It’s just outrageous that we see for political purposes someone not only being factually inaccurate about my voting record, but putting Osama bin Laden on the TV screen and trying to make a connection with me,” Clinton said.
“This is beyond outrageous. We need to get back to the business of trying to work together in a bipartisan, or really a non-partisan way to win the war against terror. I think people do a great disservice accusing patriotic Americans of being in bed with Osama bin Laden. It is a terrible injustice to use that in a campaign.”
Clinton then added: “I take a seat to nobody when it comes to the issue of national security.”
The Republican primary is slated for Sept. 12, when Spencer is expected to defeat Katherine (KT) McFarland, the only other candidate on the Republican ballot. McFarland, like Clinton has also criticized the Spencer campaign tactics.
Latest polls give Clinton more than a 25 point advantage over either Republican opponent.
The former first lady is seeking her second term as New York’s junior senator and is widely believe to be eyeing a run for the White House.

What was it the skunk said when the wind changed? It all comes back to me now!!! Hilary is only posturing, her core beliefs and the “Bush Derangement Syndrome” have driven her whole agenda, she’ll hand over the soveriegnty of the United States to the UN in a heartbeat and make this a Socialist country. She is threatened by Spencer’s ability to take a seat in New York. The poor old Marxist simply ignores the scent of her past Marxism.
Your so right Jack she would do exactly as you said.
Hopefully Hillary will be a future problem only for New York and Bill. Although I don’t think I have seen a picture of Bill and Hillary together since they left the White House. I bet it has been years since he mentioned her name at the heighth of passion, ha ha!
Tom
ROTFLMAO
Bet you are right. The only time Hillary would mention Bill’s name in passion is the passion of one of her famous temper tantrums. heh heh
