Hillary Clinton released a 2-minute tweet announcement that she was running for president.
We saw her drive to Iowa in her Scooby Doo stopping at Chipotle for a burrito wearing her Blues Brothers glasses. We also saw her van parked in a handicap parking zone. So much for representing the common folks.
It’s now obvious why her emails were all diverted through a private server in her basement and destroyed when she left as Secretary of State. Hillary’s play for pay, using her office, reaped hundreds of millions for her and Bills’ “Clinton Foundation.”
The server would have revealed the shenanigans that the Clinton’s have been involved in for decades.
When the book “Clinton Cash” is released, she will have no choice but to address the issues in the book.
Like the 130 million donated to the Clintons’ by a Canadian company for 20 percent of our U.S. uranium output that was later sold to Russia. A gold mining claim in Haiti, with Hillary’s brother on the board of directors. It’s now revealed that the Clinton’s set up another company in Canada that illegally funneled more than a thousand donations from foreign countries.
Hillary is a gift that keeps on giving to Republicans.

HILLARY CLINTON - BEN GHAZI 2016
WHAT DIFFERENCE DOES IT MAKE ?
Taken out of context, of course! 4 people dead in a surprise embassy takeover! How many marines killed in Lebanon in surprise attack during Reagan Administration? How many American soldiers killed in GWB's Iraq War? Just because Saddam Hussein insulted his daddy.... All lives matter! You certainly are selective!
Yeah, looks like she got caught with her greedy hands in the money till, along with Bill. The way they conducted themselves made a mockery out of helping poor people in one of the poorest, if not the poorest country on earth.

Now since they were caught they are having to redo their income taxes for many years past because they were hoping their secret dealings wound not see the light of day. Add giving American bomb making uranium to Russia ( & Iran )...., collecting the applicable benefits from the deal ,and eradicating possible incriminating evidence by destroying what was on their server. She will be perfect for the moral climate of a country where many now possesses a SOCICALIST ideology, where taking other people's money for their own is looked at as a good and honorable thing.

I also resent the gender card being played! How come we just can't go after the most all around qualified person? Why we have to always be divisive? We heard the same cry for The First Black President and where did that take this country? .....( Don't take my word, just ask Germany, France, Israel, and other countries what they think.) Ask our veterans what they think of how the Washington people talks out of one side of their mouths while letting veterans die..... while they are praising their valiant service out of the other side. If we are going to go the route of playing all these political cards, then I think the next President ought to be Hispanic! That's just me. If Henry Gabriel Cisneros had been using the right brain, he probably would have already won the White House years ago, unfortunately that was not the case. Now we have Marco Rubio and Ted Cruz. I personally like Marco, but have not 100% decided.

Whenever you have a free society who sits back and watch corruption, greed, fraud, misuse of government power, violation of public trust and they do and say nothing,.....then you have to start wondering about the POOL, that the public servants were elected from. A corrupted POOL is ten times more alarming than the corrupt and incompetent public servants elected from the POOL, because absent of spiritual knowledge from above, a person will reflect the values and integrity of the environment he exists in and the people he associates with.
Henry Cisneros went away in disgrace. His mistress gave him lots of trouble.
The Clinton Foundation From Politifact and Punditfact:
"Limbaugh said '85 percent of every dollar donated to the Clinton Foundation ended up either with the Clintons or with their staff to pay for travel, salaries, and benefits. Fifteen cents of every dollar actually went to some charitable beneficiary.'
There’s a grain of truth here -- roughly 85 percent of the foundation’s spending was for items other than charitable grants to other organizations, and a large chunk of this 85 percent did go to Clinton Foundation staff for travel, salaries and benefits. "
So of course Politifact rated Rush Limbaugh's Claims "Mostly False but states: "The claim contains some element of truth but ignores critical facts that would give a different impression, so we rate it Mostly False." Critical Fact: They don't EVER want to say Rush Limbaugh was right. [beam]
You believe Rush Limbaugh? I remember when he was giving his opinion on women getting breast implants or reconstructive surgery. He kept saying (on the radio) that, "he didn't have a FEEL for the subject." He kept repeating that statement and repeating it. I finally called the radio station and told them that I was offended. I told them that some people got breast reconstruction because they had cancer and had to have mastectomies. I told them that as a woman, I was offended by his comment, and that it was crude and insensitive.
Of course that was in between Rush's wife number two and three, and before it was discovered that he was pill-popping at the time. I cannot believe you would think that Rush is a credible, responsible person. He is not.
It is Politifact and Punditfact that states "There’s a grain of truth here" and "The claim contains some element of truth" then jump to MOSTLY FALSE. I never said nor posted my opinion of the credibility of his statement. And as to your experience, Rush has been known to use innuendo as in, " I love the women's movement, especially when walking behind it." Working with teenagers you've probably heard worse. And listening to Letterman, Leno, Fallon, Kimmel, even vintage Carson it is mild compared to what they put out. It hasn't hurt his ratings despite claims to the contrary. His is still the top rated radio show in the nation.
Paula, a principal once called me aside to tell me a student had reported that I was "talking dirty". The students had asked who my favorite actors were when I was growing up as part of a survey . On my list I mentioned "Dick Van Dyke". The principal assured her that he was a real actor. The student was not amused.
Another thing I find odd. During the primaries back during the 2008 elections, Hillary Clinton and Obama was bitter enemies and was locked in a heated fight to see who would represent the Democratic Party against John McCain. The word on the street was that Bill Clinton was *&##$ at Obama for how he went after his wife in the debates and in the media. It is said that even today he is still *#$ about what Obama did.
-
I find it mighty peculiar after all that, Obama turned around and gave Hillary a PLUM position of such influence and magnitude after he won the elections from McCain. It is said that it was a political payoff for the Clintons' support against McCain! Obama who is supposed to be a great orator showed his flaws against Romney when he seemed to go blank for some reason in one debate. Other times against McCain, BILL CLINTON proclaimed by the media as Obama's EXPLAINER AND CHIEF, had to go public and systematically explain and justify the lies Mr. Obama was slinging around during his campaign stops.
-
People ate it up like flapjacks! It was said that Obama's people had to go to the Clintons and beg for help in order to win against McCain, so that in my opinion was where that "YOU OWE ME NOW" .....THING CAME INTO PLAY. I can see that clearly because Secretary Clinton ran the State Department like she did not have a boss, and answered to nobody! She acted like she was operating on political capital. Strange... how the game of politics is played. Strange indeed.
And people forget the question of whether President Obama was born in Kenya or Hawaii was brought up by Hillary Clinton's Campaign Staff in the Democratic Primaries, not the Republicans but Republicans always get blamed for that accusation. Truth is Barack Hussein Obama WAS BORN IN KENYA. It is Barack Hussein Obama Jr. who has a Hawaiian birth certificate.[beam]
Hillary will not be able to shed the "baggage" she carries into this election. She would probably make a "good" president, but not a great one. The Republicans will see to that. She will be attacked on every decision she made, excoriated by the press (who are like sheep, now) and criticized for every statement taken out of context, that she makes. As president, she would spend more time explaining her words and actions than completing them. I probably will not vote for her.
Asides from her "baggage" what I find lacking in Mrs. Clinton is her lack of experience. What accomplishments does she REALLY have?
Credentials:
First Lady: Spent most of her time defending President Bill. Initiated Health Care Reform under major cloud of controversy and accomplished nothing.
US Senator: Sponsored no legislation of substance, regrets some of her votes (like going to war in Iraq). Nothing noteworthy here.
Secretary of State: No real accomplishments here also. Her "Reset with Russia" was a dismal failure.
The Republicans are offering a buffet. I hope the Democrats see that their one meal offering doesn't look appetizing outside their inner circle.
Pf, when asked PERSONALLY to name her accomplishments as Sec. of State, Ms. Clinton herself could not name a single one except "passing the baton"......
When others are asked to name her accomplishments, for instance, Lanny Davis, they say stuff like she "worked tirelessly traveling the world". And "restored America's place in the world" (my personal favorite.....), and 'fought terrorism".....
As a Senator, she had not a single personally authored bill proposal in her entire tenure.
As First Lady, she oversaw the removal of White House property to her personal home that had to later be returned (you or I would have been arrested for theft....).
As a candidate, she's now available for viewing live and in color on any number of video taped appearances repudiating her own positions of a decade or so ago, some she called 'rock solid'.....
The best reason to be suspect of Hillary Clinton is...Hillary Clinton, in her own words and deeds.
And, we haven't even broached the e-mails and Foundation shenanigans and 'what difference does it make'......[beam][beam][beam]
The Republicans don't have to do a darn thing to marginalize her except continuously replay her marginalizing...herself.....
They are going to be too busy, anyway, and as usual, marginalizing each other.....
Not a surprise at all, Pf.
The Ambassador had been requesting additional security for weeks ahead of an anticipated attack. The requests, and the subsequent 3am cal, went unanswered.....
The Lebanaon barracks bombing was was an acute attack, not a result of chronic threats.
The Iraq war authorization to use force to remove Sadaam Hussein's reported WMD was backed by just about every major Democrat member of Congress at the time, including...wait for it...Hillary Clinton.....
Oddly, this fact escapes them all now, as mass amnesia took hold right after the intelligence reports, provided by the head of the CIA, a man appointed by...wait for ti...Bill Clinton...proved largely false....so far as we have found out to-date.....
Might have known more if we hadn't drawn a red line about Syrian chemical weapons use, then developed a yellow streak when that bluff was called.......
