Hillary Clinton's contribution to the all-purpose excuse genre

To date, this blog has observed the political innovation of the All-Purpose Excuse -- the signature line that can be used to justify anything. Two examples:

1) "If we don't do it, the terrorists will win."

2) "If we don't do it, the Republicans will do it in the fall."

Hillary Clinton came up with a new one yesterday on This Week:
"I知 not going to put my lot in with economists."
Try it around the house -- it's easy and fun!:
Honey, you should really brush your teeth before you go to sleep.

I知 not going to put my lot in with dentists.

Or:
Will we have enough money to pay our bills this month?

I知 not going to put my lot in with accountants.

Or:
That cop has his sirens on... maybe you should pull over.

I知 not going to put my lot in with the heat.
