What is Hillary talking about?
In the Slate/Yahoo/Huffington Post "mashup" with presidential candidates, moderator Charlie Rose asked Hillary whether she was questioning Petraeus' veracity when she told him his testimony required a "willing suspension of disbelief."
Her response, which was basically no, began this way: "No, what I said was meant to convey my very strong feeling that no matter how flat the pancake, there's always two sides."
We do agree that pancakes have two sides. But, has anybody ever heard that particular analogy before? And does anybody have any idea what it's supposed to mean, in the context?

Perhaps she meant waffle, which is a fitting political term.
Leave Hillary alone
hillary's husband has two sides. The snakey womanizing pig side, and the fake stand by your woman for political reasons side. No core, just flat with two sides. Bill Clinton
One of the characteristics of a pancake is that it may easily and quickly be flipped from one side to another; perhaps this is why the analogy appeals to Hillary?
