Clinton Caught with her hand in the cookie jar - Kinser79 - 05-13-2016
And other dirt. I figured it would be interesting to have a thread to record all dirt that's going to come out of Shillary's closet full of skeletons.
We'll start with fraud at the Clinton Foundation and lots of missing money.

Video is by Fox Business.

I'm no fan of Clinton, but I refuse to read Breitbart as a matter of principle because it's usually BS. Unfortunately you probably think the same thing regarding Salon and The Atlantic, which makes trying to have a reasonable discussion impossible...
RE: Clinton Caught with her hand in the cookie jar - Kinser79 - 05-13-2016
Actually Odin I read both Salon and the Atlantic as well as Breitbart. Of course I also think for myself, which cannot be said for some people. As I said the video itself is from Fox Business...not the best of sources I'll admit but where there is smoke there is fire.

??? That's not exactly a convincing argument. It has, however, been used in a multitude of cases where innocent people's lives have been ruined.
I can't help but wonder how many hundreds of millions of dollars have been spent trying to nail the Clintons. Most of the so-called "issues" have been tempests in teapots to begin with, or poorly documented sexual peccadillos, all on the part of Bill.
The email "scandal?" Benghazi? Hillary's hairdo? She's like Eleanor Roosevelt?
All seems like minor league stuff. But I'm sure you all will keep it up.
Of course there is the problem that Hillary is the ONLY politician in existence that has received money from unsavory characters.

It would be kind of hard to ruin Shillery's political career. '08 saw to that.

I can't help but think that her enabling of Bill's dalliances wouldn't go over well with the feminist set. Whitewater was a bit of a joke to be sure--someone made a bad investment and picked a looser nothing to see there. But both have been filthy since the 1990s.
Quote:The email "scandal?"
Is quite possibly something but I fully expect the Obama DOJ to try and obfuscate whatever is there to insure a Democratic President because the second the GOP has gotten in and has access to what really happened I wouldn't be shocked to see arrests being made.
Quote: Benghazi?
Has a giant cover up around it. There is something there, the whole thing stinks.
Quote:Hillary's hairdo?
Really don't care. Last I checked having terrible hair wasn't a crime or even a scandal.
Quote:She's like Eleanor Roosevelt?
Not even close. For my cricitisms of E. R. as an naive idealist she wasn't 1/100th the slime ball Shillary is on her worst day.
Quote:All seems like minor league stuff. But I'm sure you all will keep it up.
Until she's permanently destroyed expect it. We have long campaigns for a reason, anyone who can't take the heat of the campaign can't handle being President.

Well she's certainly cozy with Wall Street Banksers.
RE: Clinton Caught with her hand in the cookie jar - Cynic Hero '86 - 05-16-2016
The reason the establishment is comfortable with Clinton is because they know she is beholden to wall street and special interests. The establishment knows that Clinton embodies the Status Quo and would allow them to continue their corruption unchecked.

Hillary Clinton went before the committee and came out well. That committee was out to get her. She came out of it unscathed.
Maybe when nothing sticks, there is either nothing sticky, or there is nothing to stick to.
Breitbart and FoX News are themselves questionable news sources.

If by unscathed, incompetent then sure.

Kind of hard to stick anything to pleas to the fifth and "that's classified".

A man who doesn't question his news sources regardless of who they are is a fool. The US has many fools, they mostly live on the left side of the fence--I should know I walked among them.

Yes, this is the typical propagandist approach taken by the Right wingnuts - come up with some lie, release it on Faux New, have Breitbart and others of the machine pick it up and quote it as legitimate, and then hope all their sheeple pick it up and do the same on the countless Internet outlets.
If you google the topic, you find the search is entirely made up of these elements, all quoting each other to give it some sense of being reality. They all march back to Stuart Varney, who is a Faux Newscaster know for his Clinton Hate Derangement Syndrome (CHDS), giving his factually-unsupported conjecture on, you guessed it, Faux News.
It appears Odin is bringing some of his discernment to the new forum. But Kinser79? Nope, looks like the same old crapola. Clearly a decision not to up his old tired game on the new forum.
