How
does anyone explain the support The Hillary is getting in the face of facts
that she is alone at the top as The Big Liar.
There is one quote that best defines the Clintons' philosophy on governing, it would be these recent words from Hillary: "I don't believe you change hearts. I believe you change laws, you change allocation of resources, you change the way systems operate." This is the re-warmed doctrine of Karl Marx and the mantra of today's Democratic Party statists.
1993: After the suicide of Hillary's longtime friend and White House counsel Vince Foster, files "disappear" from his office, impeding the investigation into his death — files that would most assuredly have shown the Clintons' fingerprints to be on various nefarious enterprises. (Sound familiar?)
1993-94: The Clintons' White House "security director," Craig Livingstone, a former bar bouncer and Clinton political hack, is caught with more than 900 classified FBI background files that he'd requested on leading Republicans from the Reagan and Bush administrations. Hillary lied in her testimony about the files.
1993-96: Hillary convenes illegal secret panels to create a socialized health care plan, which was exposed by Republican House investigators and subsequently went down in flames. Her ClintonCare proposal was thus shelved until Barack Obama became president, but she is without question the grande dame of what eventually became ObamaCare.
1993-97: The Clintons turn the IRS into their personal attack dog, and the agency went after every major conservative group in the nation, including The Heritage Foundation, the National Rifle Association, Concerned Women of America, the National Center for Public Policy Research, the American Policy Center, American Cause, Citizens for Honest Government, Progress and Freedom Foundation, and Citizens Against Government Waste. Not even conservative publications such as National Review and American Spectator were spared. In 1996, The Washington Times researched the targeting of these organizations and could not identify a single liberal advocacy organization that had been audited during Bill's first term. (Sound familiar?)
1994: Hillary's Rose Law Firm billing records related to the 1980s Whitewater Development bankruptcy mysteriously disappear — but then inexplicably reappear a year later after having been "scrubbed" of any incriminating evidence linking Hillary with key partners in that fraud. (Sound familiar?)
1995: Bill Clinton signs
legislation making it easier for minority constituents with bad credit to
obtain mortgages. His Treasury Secretary, Robert Rubin, rewrote the lending
rules for the ill-conceived Community Reinvestment Act (which had been signed
into law by none other than Jimmy Carter), opening the floodgates of Fannie Mae
(Federal National Mortgage Association) and Freddie Mac (Federal Home Loan
Mortgage Corporation) subprime loans. Clinton's legislation applied affirmative
action to the lending industry, sowing the seeds for the massive deflation of
home prices and for the near-total collapse of the American financial markets
10 years later. Bill Clinton admitted in 2008, "I think the responsibility
that the Democrats have may rest more in resisting any efforts by Republicans
in the Congress ... to put some standards and tighten up a little on Fannie Mae
and Freddie Mac." Indeed.
Democrat Rep. Artur Davis was a bit more direct: "Like a lot of my Democratic colleagues, I was too slow to appreciate the recklessness of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. In retrospect I should have heeded the [Republican] concerns in 2004. Frankly I wish my Democratic colleagues would admit that, when it comes to Fannie and Freddie, we were wrong."
1995-96: Hillary confidant John Huang is appointed to the DNC and raised large illegal donations from foreign sources. (Sound familiar?) Charlie Trie also raised major illegal donations from foreign sources. His $450,000 contribution to Clinton's legal defense fund was a pass-through from Asian special interests. According to Judicial Watch founder Larry Klayman, those interests included the Red Chinese government.
1996: The Clintons trade Commerce Department positions and Lincoln Bedroom lodging for big campaign donations. Then-Vice President Al Gore repeatedly and infamously insisted, "There is no controlling legal authority," after it was determined that the Clintons were operating a major fundraising call center in the White House.
1997: Six years into Bill Clinton's tenure of national security malfeasance, one of Osama bin Laden's well organized al-Qa'ida terrorist cells crafts a plan to settle into American suburbs and prepare a strike on our homeland. Four years had passed from the time of the first World Trade Center attack under Clinton's watch until preparations began for the devastating attacks of September 11, 2001. In 1988, the Clinton administration refused an FBI field agent's efforts to open a case file on Arab nationals who were, curiously, training to fly commercial aircraft, but not training for takeoffs or landings. The stated reason for the case file denial was to avoid the appearance of any presumption of an Islamic threat — precisely why, to this day, Democrats refuse to use the words "Islamic" and "terrorism" in the same context. During his eight years in office, Clinton had numerous opportunities to capture or kill bin Laden, but refused. Air Force Lt. Col. Robert Patterson, who carried the "nuclear football" codes for the Clinton administration, notes, "[W]e could have prevented the bombing of the U.S.S. Cole, we could have prevented 9/11 and we could have prevented the bombings of the embassies in Africa if President Clinton had taken one of these opportunities. ... We had eight chances at least to either nab bin Laden or to kill him." Michael Scheuer, former CIA chief of the team responsible for hunting bin Laden, confirmed that prior to 9/11 SpecOps had two opportunities when Osama was literally in their sights, but Clinton pulled the plug on both operations.
1998: Bill Clinton is
impeached for perjury and obstruction of justice after falsely insisting he
"did not have sexual relations" with a 22-year-old female White House
intern. Hillary had established a long record of defending her husband against
charges ranging from sexual impropriety to rape (in order to ensure her own
political aspirations), including but not limited to charges brought by Juanita
Broaddrick, Gennifer Flowers, Kathleen Willey and Paula Jones. Hillary perfected
the practice of "blaming the victim," and she insisted that the
Monica Lewinsky sex scandal was fabricated by a "vast right-wing
conspiracy that has been conspiring against my husband since the day he
announced for president."
Americans learn a lot about DNA evidence, and the Clintons should be credited with the popularity of all the cold case and forensic file TV shows that followed. We also learned that, unlike Richard Nixon, who had the decency to resign instead of putting the nation through an impeachment proceeding, the Clintons knew that Senate Democrats would never join with Republicans to achieve the two-thirds majority vote required to convict the Philanderer in Chief.
2000: Bill Clinton issues executive pardons to big donors and other convicted felons, some doing time related to Clinton scandals. Recall that among all those last-minute political pardons, one was for his former CIA director, John Deutch, who, it was discovered in 1996, stored classified documents on an unsecure laptop at his residence.
2001: According to Hillary, she and Bill depart the White House "dead broke" after vandalizing the executive residence before the Bush family arrived and loading up $190,000 in gifts and furnishings. However penniless (despite six-figure taxpayer-funded salaries and an $8 million book deal), they managed to buy a Chappaqua, New York, country house for $1.7 million in 1999 in order to establish residency for Hillary's carpet-bagging Senate run in 2000. They also acquired a seven-bedroom house in DC for $2.85 million so Hillary would have a place to stay while the Senate was in session.
2001-2009: Bill and the then-junior senator from New York amass hundreds of millions of dollars in personal wealth from fees charged to those who were betting on Hillary's political future. What she did not amass, however, is any record of accomplishment as a senator — no piece of legislation was advanced under her name.
2009: After Hillary's unsuccessful 2008 presidential primary bid against Barack Obama, he hushes her up and keeps her close with an appointment as secretary of state, an office she held from 2009-2013. While Bill and their "family foundation" continued to amass millions in speaking fees and donations, Hillary compiled an even less impressive but much more lethal record as secretary of state than she had as a senator. She visited 112 countries, and, though she falsely claimed having been shot at by snipers in at least one of them, she can claim no treaty, no accord or even a meaningful summit success. Hillary does claim that she "restored America's reputation," but what she actually did was advance Obama's failed foreign policies to the extent that America now suffers its weakest world standing since the Jimmy Carter era.
2012: Hillary crafts and propagates the Benghazi cover-up after the death of four Americans, including our ambassador to Libya. She lied about the attack, claiming it was inspired by an obscure Internet video rather than a well-planned and executed al-Qa'ida assault on the anniversary of 9/11. She did so to protect Obama's 2012 election, thus ensuring her own 2016 ambitions. Recall that at that time Obama was continuously crowing about how al-Qa'ida was "on the run." Given that his domestic economic and social policies had been an abject failure, all he had to frame his 2012 campaign upon were the patently false claims of victory in Iraq and the defeat of al-Qa'ida.
2014: While Hillary was secretary of state, the Bill, Hillary and Chelsea Clinton Foundation took in hundreds of millions of dollars from foreign governments, corporations and individuals, who were currying favor with Hillary as secretary of state and as a potential future president. Peter Schweizer's book, "Clinton Cash," provides a sobering outline of the abuse.
2015: In March, Hillary admits that she illegally maintained a "private email server" for official State Department communications — in violation of federal law, and had failed to acknowledge those records in congressional testimony regarding the Benghazi attack and cover-up. In April, Clinton officially announces her presidential candidacy. But Clinton's self-spun web of lies about keeping her communications out of the public record may yet ensnare her, and end her 2016 presidential aspirations. It's not likely that she'll withdraw without a fight, but she is, clearly, in trouble. (Read our comprehensive account of Clinton's email cover-up lies.)
