Hillary Clinton at UCLA: Protests for All the Wrong Reasons

Hat tip Daily Bruin



"I'm a victim."


Hillary Clinton is making statements galore this week on the crisis in Ukraine. Even though John Kerry is now secretary of state, Hillary, who is gearing up for her 2016 presidential run-or coronation as she views it, had to make her own statements to show she is still a major player.

This week, she spoke at UCLA and followed up with her own pronouncements about Ukraine, sort of emulating Winston Churchill's "Iron curtain falling across Europe speech''.

But surprisingly, it wasn't all roses for Hillary at UCLA as some students felt compelled to play the role of victims.

Isn't it amazing how young college kids, fortunate to be attending one of the most prestigious (supposedly) universities in the nation in an upscale part of West Los Angeles think of themselves as victims?

Undocumented UCLA students.
Palestinian students upset about the student government vote down of a BDS vote against Israel.
Minority groups apparently being hounded by university authorities, campus police, or somebody as they walk around the campus.
Unfair labor practices at UCLA.

Why, you would think....



Why is there no mention of Benghazi in the Daily Bruin account of protesters?

Grow up!
