Huffington Post/CBS   First Posted: 3/28/08 Updated: 5/25/11

Hillarys Valentine

Hillary Clinton handed out chocolates today on her plane as a Valentine's Day present for the reporters. As a special bonus, she even called the lonely Valentines of those very reporters who were stuck covering her campaign instead of celebrating the holiday with their loved ones.

Watch below as Hillary explains what Valentine's Day means to the once and potentially future first couple and endears herself to her press corps:

perhaps she should have served home-baked cookies that she doesn't sit home to bake

In a twist of dramatic irony, Hillary claims speeches don't put food on the table, fill up your tank, fill your prescripti­on, or do anything about that stack of bills that keeps you up at night ... (wait for it) ... during a speech.

Those who cursing and swearing whenever they are commenting on Hillary Clinton are only expressing their own depression­.

Speeches don't put food on the table? Doesn't her husband earn $150,000 + per speech?

Check the official Senate vote site. You will find that neither Obama nor Clinton voted on the FISA bill--but all we ever hear is that Clinton didn't vote. What's with that?

Calling ALL Hillary supporters­/apologist­s!
Can any of you or will any of you explain/ra­tionalize Hillary's non vote/dodge on the FISA bill.

Give it your best shot.

I know why she did not vote on it, even though at the time she was begging people to TRUST her.

I would like to hear from all of you regarding the recent actions of YOUR candidate.

For those of you unfamiliar with the FISA bill and why it was so very important to this nation, our civil liberties and holding the tyrannical Bush accountabl­e for criminal misconduct­-get yourself EDUCATED.

As we all know Obama did the right thing, voted against it-as all good American Senators should have voted.

Give your best shot Hillary supporters­-explain away.

Dick Durbin is the Majority Whip. You follow so far? Good!

As majority whip, Durbin knew how the Dems were going to vote. That is part of the job of the Majority Whip. You follow so far? Good!

Durbin knew the FISA amendment proposed by Dodd would fail. Durbin also knew the FISA bill with immunity would pass. Afterall, Durbin knew how his Dem colleagues would vote. You follow so far? Good!

Clinton's people called Durbin's people to see if she needed to be on the Senate floor for a close vote. Durbin told her the vote was not even close, so it was okay to stay on the campaign trail. This is a common practice in the Senate, and it is the job of the Majority Whip to get the Senators on the floor to vote.

You follow?

Btw, I voted for Kucinich in the primary, and I will vote for eother Hillary or Barak, depending upon who gains the Dem nomination­.

If you don't like what Hillary did, then get over it real soon, because the Repigs in Congress are guilty of much worse... even so far as having broken his or her oath of office.

Oops--repl­ied to wrong post. As I said above, neither Obama nor Clinton voted on the final FISA bill. Check out http://www­.senate.go­v/legislat­ive/LIS/ro­ll_call_li­sts/vote_m­enu_110_2.­htm for the official vote count.
But only Clinton is getting raked over the coals for that. I'm sure if it were going to be close, both would have been there to vote.

I thought this stunt was much better than her Hillforce1­-flight attendant shtick. I am anti-Billa­ry with the best of them but I thought it was a cute play. It worked because so-called journalist­s and news networks are reporting it. Good for her...doin­g something right for a change.

It might be nice to have her show up for the FISA vote, might have been more meaningful in the long run. But if cheap chocolate does it for you-geez we are in trouble aren't we.

Partisans on both sides are the cause of the ruination of America. You sir are one of those who make America worse.

There's a new gadget around called the internet. You can goto Obama's webswite and see his plan on every issue. It's all laid out right there.

Gosh - why does everything have to be so hard?

hillary voted in favor of the bankruptcy bill in 2001 and that took a lot of food off of poor people tables.

Amen - it empowered credit card companies and the medical profession to go after their money that they cheated you out of in the first place.

Kinda funny how they got that in place in preparatio­n for step 2: the mortgage crisis.

Unless hillary is out in the fields picking produce with the migrant workers, in the warehouses cleaning and packaging produce, slaughteri­ng cows and butchering them, baking bread, driv ing the trucks to transport said food, buying it for me, and then driving it to my home and putting it in the fridge, hell then cooking it and putting it on my table.....­..........­she sure as hell isn't putting food on my table eaither.

LOL what a trainwreck of a campaign she is running
