A reader sent me an image of Hillary imposed with images of Peter Sellers from the movie Mysterious Doctor Strangelove.
A bit of digging turned up other interesting images and articles.
Hillary Strangelove
Origin is unknown, but a Boston Globe had an editorial back in 2008 with that same title: Hillary Strangelove
AMERICANS have learned to take with a grain of salt much of the rhetoric in a campaign like the current Democratic donnybrook between Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama. Still, there are some red lines that should never be crossed. Clinton did so Tuesday morning, the day of the Pennsylvania primary, when she told ABC’s “Good Morning America” that, if she were president, she would “totally obliterate” Iran if Iran attacked Israel.
This foolish and dangerous threat was muted in domestic media coverage. But it reverberated in headlines around the world.
Responding with understatement to a question in the British House of Lords, the foreign minister responsible for Asia, Lord Mark Malloch-Brown, said of Clinton’s implication of a mushroom cloud over Iran: “While it is reasonable to warn Iran of the consequences of it continuing to develop nuclear weapons and what those real consequences bring to its security, it is probably not prudent in today’s world to threaten to obliterate any other country and in many cases civilians resident in such a country.”
A presidential candidate who lightly commits to obliterating Iran – and, presumably, all the children, parents, and grandparents in Iran – should not be answering the White House phone at any time of day or night.
President Obama has done or even said little of anything that merits praise.
But he did get one thing perfect in this 2008 flashback.
Inquiring minds may wish to consider the September 15, 2016 Wall Street Journal Op-Ed by Peggy Noonan Travel Back to an Early Clinton Scandal.
“Voters have the impression Hillary isn’t trustworthy. She’s been reinforcing it since 1993.”
Proposals for Hillary’s Campaign Slogan Taken
How about “War you can believe in”? What about “Lies you can believe in”?
Those seeking complete honesty may wish to consider “I’ve been lying for decades but so has everyone else”.

“Mein Fuhrer, I can’t walk!”
did Obama have gray hair in 2008?
She’s friggin’ Darth Vader in a pantsuit.
ELECT HER NOW!!!!!!
There’s a whole bunch of these, “A Weekend At Hillary’s” videos on youtube.
Clinton plays James Brown’s “I Feel Good” on her first day back from pneumonia bout

James Brown died of pneumonia in 2006.
I think Chambawamba’s Tubthumping would be perfect theme for hILL.
Nah, too optimistic.
“Hillary Clinton plucked her speech notes from these pop songs”
http://www.nydailynews.com/entertainment/music/hillary-clinton-plucked-speech-notes-pop-songs-article-1.2731160
“Pop/punk fans were immediately transported back to 1997, when Chumbawamba’s earworm “Tubthumping” wore itself out on the radio and MTV by repeating, “I get knocked down, but I get up again / You are never gonna keep me down,” over and over (and over) again.”
Pneumonia is sometimes called “the old person’s friend,” because it eases them into the afterlife.

The Bullshit never ends, Iran has not now and never has had a nuclear weapons program.
How about “I lie with a straight face, just like hubby”
Her campaign sign that says, “I’m with Her” always reminds me of a funny t-shirt that says, “I’m with stupid =>”. The arrow points to the person next to the person wearing the t-shirt.
But according to Hillary, she doesn’t believe she’s ever lied, or ever will. Unbelievable!
Mitch,
I can’t stand Hillary, but I did a quick google search before I was about to retweet that supposed Obama quote, and it came up on Snopes. Apparently only the first half of the quote was traceable to any campaign ad or statement made by Obama. That’s still damning, but wanted to let you know that the second half of the supposed quote might not be a legitimate Obama quote.
Not saying that I think she can be trusted or that she ought to be President! Just saying Obama may not have ever said the second half of the quote.
~Jon
Yeah, I do that sort of thing, too, before using supposed quotes. There’s plenty to chose from without setting yourself up by including something that’s not correct.
Unfortunately, too many others don’t do the same.
Mish, you saved the best slogan for last: “I’ve been lying for decades but so has everyone else”. I like complete honesty…
“The truth is, while we Americans profess to want honest leaders, what we really want are effective leaders, and sometimes lies are necessary evils if we want to get something accomplished.”
Selected quote from “The 7 Biggest Liars in Presidential History”
http://www.alternet.org/culture/7-biggest-liars-presidential-history
It’s an interesting read. Curiosity led me to find the word “war” pops up 19 times…
“The first casualty, when war comes, is truth” —Hiram Johnson (1866-1945) Progressive Republican senator in California, said during World War 1. He died on Aug. 6, 1945, the day the United States dropped an atomic bomb on Hiroshima.
You might ask, or google, “When aren’t we at war?” I did it for you:
AMERICA HAS BEEN AT WAR 93% OF THE TIME – 222 OUT OF 239 YEARS – SINCE 1776

The name of the move is “Dr. Strangelove: Or how I learned to stop worrying and love the bomb.” One of Stanley Kubrick best works.
Probably a good idea to do a post on Trump a Mish.

“She will say anything and change nothing…”
Who was Obama talking about… himself? We could say the same thing about him. Change we can believe in, my foot!
I hope the wind stays in the direction it is blowing (Trump’s) till November.
“’She will say anything and change nothing…’ Who was Obama talking about… himself?”
Turned out that way, as anyone familiar with reality would have predicted.
This might work…

Those pics you posted are NOT Hilary Clinton.
Does that really look like her?
My god, it’s amazing how you can be fooled.
It’s not Peter Sellers, either. So what! It’s satire.
I don’t know if you’re kidding, but yes, that’s her. The top left one is a crop from a 9/11 ceremony photo, the one where she collapsed after leaving. Look it up. BTW, for some reason, she’s the only one of the many people seen in that photo who is wearing sunglasses.
Shapeshifting bitch
You can fool some of the people all of the time.
The rest are part of a vast right wing conspiracy.
How about a slight change to Obama’s quote to make it a more realistic.campaign slogan:
She Will Say Anything and Change Everything.
And the point is? that she is especially interventionist or warmongering? No. She’s a mainstream interventionist. Trump, with his “carpet bomb” and collective punishment, and torture and internment is the one who is potentially off the charts. Is the point that she habitually lies? Again, Trump radically outdoes her. She lies about about being shot at in Bosnia. He lies about Muslims celebrating in the streets of Newark after 9/11. She lies to cover up mistakes. He lies to summon the most dangerous human spirits, ones which when unleashed by a demagogue, have time and time again extinguished human freedom. This post might be worthwhile if it revealed something new (it’s doesn’t), and, more importantly, if the opponent of HRC were not Donald Trump, the most dangerous American national politician since maybe Huey Long.
“He lies about Muslims celebrating in the streets of Newark after 9/11”
Everybody knows that there were mass cases of Muslims publicly celebrating in the New York area at the time. There were even news reports about it which have since been scrubbed.
I like Muslims and Muslims are great people, but anybody denying that American muslims were happy about about the 9-11 attacks is just PC bullshit.
Hillary, like Obama, supports open borders. That is much more dangerous to the American people than anything Trump supports.
“But anybody denying that American muslims were happy about about the 9-11 attacks is just PC bullshit.”
Would that be every Muslim?
Today Obama spoke about continuing his legacy. I cannot understand why anyone would want to as what he said of Clinton in 2008 is true of both.
What should a POTUS do if Iran attacks Israel?
Have Colin Powel investigate the matter. [sarcasm]
I find it interesting that slithILLary that strange medical mystery serpent can be slipping through the slime with all hands out and still topple over.
I am just wondering if she is still alive and we are just seeing body triples and greenscreens
