Ashley Judd: Hillary the most overqualified candidate since Thomas Jefferson or George Washington.
Conservative heads exploded over Ashley Judd and her endorsement of Hillary Clinton during a January 30th 2015 interview with Larry King.
According to Ora TV, the network hosting the interview, “Actress, humanitarian & former Kentucky Senate hopeful Ashley Judd — revealed that she’d wholeheartedly thrown her support behind Hillary, no matter when the former Secretary of State’s announcement arrives.”
Noting that Judd had “previously endorsed President Obama,” Ora goes on to report that Judd “even went so far as to say that Hillary Clinton ‘is the most overqualified candidate since Thomas Jefferson.'”
“Obviously, I love Hillary Rodham Clinton,” Judd stated, adding: “I think she might be the most overqualified candidate we’ve had since — you know, Thomas Jefferson or George Washington.”
As one might expect, conservatives are going wild with The Washington Examiner rating the interview “Three out of five screams,” and The Tea Party News Network resorting to personal insults, calling Judd a “pinheaded actress” and posting the following bizarre critique:
Even though progressive controlist [sic] Hillary Clinton’s radical Marxist views are diametrically opposed to the views of any American founder, who believed in limited, constitutional government, Ashley Judd somehow thinks that the Benghazi liar is comparable to “Thomas Jefferson or George Washington.”
You can watch Judd’s endorsement, below, followed by a partial transcript.
TRANSCRIPT:
ASHLEY JUDD: I mean, obviously, I love Hillary Rodham Clinton. … And so, seeing her talk about early childhood vulnerability and brain development — man, that woman is stout! She is stout. So yes, I will be all-in when the time comes —
LARRY KING: You would endorse her. You would obviously endorse her.
JUDD: Of course, I would!
KING: Look at your enthusiasm, I mean — come on!
JUDD: And are there other qualified candidates? Absolutely. I think she might be the most overqualified candidate we’ve had since Thomas Jefferson or George Washington.
