Several people have accused Clinton of making anti-Semitic comments in private. In the 2000 book State of a Union: Inside the Complex Marriage of Bill and Hillary Clinton by former National Enquirer reporter Jerry Oppenheimer, lawyer Paul Fray, who ran Bill Clinton’s failed 1974 run for Congress, claimed that after that defeat, Hillary Rodham, then Clinton’s girlfriend, raged that he (Fray) was a "***** Jew Bastard." Fray's wife and businessman Neil McDonald both claim to have witnessed this slur. Hillary Clinton denied that she ever made such a remark and released a 1997 letter in which Fray apologized regarding statements he had made about her over the years. In addition Fray had previously been disbarred for altering court documents and also suffered from a medical condition that caused erratic behavior and memory loss. Moreover, Fray was only one-eighth Jewish, not one-half as the Oppenheimer book detailing the accusation had claimed. However, Fray was reported to have passed a polygraph test regarding the allegation. According to the polygraph examiner, “There’s no doubt in my mind that Mr. Fray is truthful.” Larry Patterson]], a former Arkansas state trooper and bodyguard to Bill and Hillary Clinton who related a series of lurid accusations about the couple, then said he heard the couple use anti-Semitic slurs "10 to 20" times. He asserts that he has heard Hillary use the term “Jew Bastard” and called President Clinton a “Jew Boy” and a “Mother ***** Jew.”
In a discussion of the Fray allegation, Dick Morris, a former political advisor to President Clinton, asserted that a couple of years previously, Hillary Clinton may have used a Jewish stereotype during an argument about consulting fees, stating "Money, that’s all you people care about is money." Morris has conceded that it was unclear whether “you people” referred to Jews or to political consultants.
Gandhi comment
Hillary Clinton came under criticism in 2004 after saying that Mahatma Gandhi “ran a gas station down in Saint Louis.” This comment represented a stereotyped view of South Asians living in the United States. Clinton apologized, blamed “a lame attempt at humor,” and claimed that she “admired the work and life of Mahatma Gandhi and had spoken publicly about that many times.”- motivatedmama, on 04/08/2008, -0/+2I had read this somewhere and wondered if this had made the taboo list along with Monica. I don't see why it should.
If this is what she is really like in private I would not be surprised at all! It explains the "nice" act she puts on and why she fails miserably at it. Nice is not who she is! It's obvious to anyone not desperate to believe it, and as time goes by she lets more and more slip.
Won't be long till she's calling people in the press (or college students) Jew Bastards and mother f**ker. Just wait. She's gonna blow.
