It’s becoming an easy video gag – stick a microphone in front of a Hillary supporter, and ask to name her accomplishments.This time, Rosie Perez did the gag on herself, as NewsBusters reports:
On Thursday’s edition of The View on ABC, co-host Rosie Perez took offense at Jeb Bush for suggesting Hillary Clinton had no accomplishments in the Senate or as Secretary of State in an interview with Sean Hannity on Fox News. ABC’s graphic on screen read “HERE COMES THE MUD.” She fell back on a weird list claiming Hillary unveiled a food-security program and saved a Turkish-Armenian accord, and prevailed over Joe Biden to “send an additional 21 troops” to Afghanistan….Then she started reading from a list:
PEREZ: You know, she unveiled the Global Hunger and Food Security program. She prevailed over Biden to send an additional 21 [sic] troops to Afghanistan. She saved the signing of Turkish-Armenian accord. She played an important role in getting international support on Iran sanction [?] She created — it goes on and on and on. And she was instrumental with women across the world, of really ending violence against women worldwide. And you know, it’s just, it was just really out of character. I don’t know Jeb, but what I’ve been seeing of him, it seemed way out of character.
It turns out Perez was reading from an old U.S. News opinion piece by liberal talk-show host Leslie Marshall posted on February 19, 2014.
