Mrs. Clinton? For President????
Many people who may vote in the democratic
primary election, if there is one and the general election in 2016 have no real
knowledge of Mrs. Clinton or her accomplishments. As a public service, I
thought I would provide some input regarding her triumphs for
consideration.
When Bill Clinton was president, he
allowed Hillary to assume authority over a health care reform. Even after
threats and intimidation, she couldn’t even get a vote in a democratic
controlled congress. This fiasco cost the American taxpayers about $13 million
in cost for studies, promotion, and other efforts.
Then President Clinton gave Hillary
authority over selecting a female attorney general. Her first two selections
were Zoe Baird and Kimba Wood – both were forced to withdraw their names from
consideration.
Next she chose Janet Reno – husband Bill described her selection
as “my worst mistake.” Some may not remember that Reno made the decision to gas
David Koresh and the Branch Davidian religious sect in Waco, Texas resulting in
dozens of deaths of women and children.
Husband Bill allowed Hillary to make
recommendations for the head of the Civil Rights Commission. Lani Guanier was
her selection. When a little probing led to the discovered of Ms. Guanier’s
radical views, her name had to be withdrawn from
consideration.
Apparently a slow learner, husband Bill
allowed Hillary to make some more recommendations. She chose former law
partners Web Hubbel for the Justice Department, Vince Foster for the White House
staff, and William Kennedy for the Treasury Department. Her selections went
well: Hubbel went to prison, Foster (presumably) committed suicide, and Kennedy
was forced to resign.
Many younger votes will have no knowledge
of “Travelgate.” Hillary wanted to award unfettered travel contracts to Clinton
friend Harry Thompson – and the White House Travel Office refused to comply.
She managed to have them reported to the FBI and fired. This ruined their
reputations, cost them their jobs, and caused a thirty-six month investigation.
Only one employee, Billy Dale was charged with a crime, and that of the enormous
crime of mixing personal and White House funds. A jury acquitted him of any
crime in less than two hours
Still not convinced of her ineptness,
Hillary was allowed to recommend a close Clinton friend, Craig Livingstone, for
the position of Director of White House security. When Livingstone was
investigated for the improper access of about 900 FBI files of Clinton enemies
(Filegate) and the widespread use of drugs by White House staff, suddenly
Hillary and the president denied even knowing Livingstone, and of course, denied
knowledge of drug use in the White House.
Following this debacle, the FBI
closed its White House Liaison Office after more than thirty years of service to
seven presidents.
Next, when women started coming forward
with allegations of sexual harassment and rape by Bill Clinton, Hillary was put
in charge of the “bimbo eruption” and scandal defense. Some of her more notable
decisions in the debacle was:
· She urged her husband not to settle the Paula Jones lawsuit. After the Starr investigation they settled with Ms. Jones.
· She refused to release the Whitewater documents, which led to the appointment of Ken Starr as Special Prosecutor. After $80 million dollars of taxpayer money was spent, Starr's investigation led to Monica Lewinsky, which led to Bill lying about and later admitting his affairs.
· Hillary’s devious game plan resulted in Bill losing his license to practice law for lying under oath to a grand jury and then his subsequent impeachment by the House of Representatives.
· Hillary avoided indictment for perjury and obstruction of justice during the Starr investigation by repeating, “I do not recall,” “I have no recollection,” and “I don’t know” a total of 56 times while under oath.
· After leaving the White House, Hillary was forced to return an estimated $200,000 in White House furniture, china, and artwork that she had stolen.
What a swell party – ready for another four or eight year of this type low-life mess?
Now we are exposed to: the destruction of possibly incriminating emails while Hillary was Secretary of State and the “pay to play” schemes of the Clinton Foundation – we have no idea what shoe will fall next. But to her loyal fans – “what difference does it make?”
Electing Hillary Clinton president would be like granting Satan absolution and giving him the keys to heaven!
