Secretary of State Hillary Clinton snapped yesterday when a translator, taking a question about President Obama, mistakenly asked the secretary what former President Bill Clinton thinks about an issue.

“Wait, you want me to tell you what my husband thinks? My husband is not the secretary of state. I am,” she said, visibly annoyed at the question.

“You ask my opinion, I’ll tell you my opinion. I’m not going to be channeling my husband,” she added.

A student asked the question at a university in Kinshasa, Congo, about what President Obama thinks about Chinese financial contracts in Congo.
