Hillary Clinton Skeedaddle, Avoids Belafonte's Presence But Still Get Pictured

Hillary Clinton has dangerously set herself near a political cliff by being in the same room as Belafonte at a Children's Defense Fund gathering. Belafonte, days earlier, called President Bush "the greatest terrorist in the world." And because of that Hillary wouldn't come near 15 feet of Belafonte or even acknowledged his presence during lunch. And as soon as Belafonte went up to the mike, she bolted out of the room as an additional measure so that photographers won't get a chance to have both Hillary and Belafonte in the same picture. Apparently it worked. But not so here with Hillary and Belafonte side by side. Well, almost.

But here are the real photos of Hillary and Belafonte in the same picture while they pose chummily together for a picture with other well known black people that was taken at the Congressional Black Caucus 35th Annual Legislative Conference Town Hall meeting on September 22, 2005 at the Washington Convention Center.
