Hillary – “I’m not in anyone’s pocket [they’re in my pocket]”


By Elizabeth Nelson

Has anyone else noticed that when Hillary starts smirking the next thing out of her mouth is a bold-faced lie? Hillary must be watching the GOP debate focus group ratings. When candidates start bashing Wall Street, the ratings go off the chart. 

Is it any wonder she has started blasting Wall Street, “anybody who knows me, knows, I’m not in the pocket of anyone.”  Or even better, “Wall street should work for Main Street,” because she’s so “main street.” Read more Time.com


Oh, but she doth protest too loudly and too much. 


Even Sanders threw the BS flag, at their New Hampshire town hall as he called her contributions and “progressiveness” into question.  
“I do not know any progressives who have a Super PAC and take $15 million dollars from Wall Street. That’s just not progressive,” Sanders said, to applause.  Read more Town Hall

 



Wall Street owns Hillary’s campaign, “in all, donors from Wall Street and other financial-services firms have given $44.1 million to support Hillary Clinton’s campaigns and allied super PACs, compared with $39.7 million in backing that former president Bill Clinton received from the industry." Why, even George Soros donated 7 Million to her Super Pac last year.  Women understand, no man gives without expecting a return for his investment, ask Mogul Donald Trump, if you don’t believe me.  Read more Washington Post

 
The pitiful truth is, this leach of a woman doesn’t care where her contributions come from. For instance, remember her unethical Qatar-backers of Hamas, Oman, German, Saudi Arabia, Australian, Canadian (hmm promoters of the XL Pipeline) donations? Benghazi Hillary has more people and countries in her pocket than Bill has women in his pants.  Read More Washington Post


Sadly, this woman has disqualified herself from running for the office of President in more ways than one and yet here we still see her in the running.  Oh, let me count the ways a Republican would have gotten the boot:
  • Unethical foreign contributions





But we all know, the only accountability that is to be held is on the heads of the Republican Party.  No one has been, or will be, held accountable for the IRS targeting, Benghazi or the VA deaths because they aren’t Republican.  Liberals and Democrats, like Hillary, like to play the victim role,


"This is very much like Benghazi, George," Clinton said. "The Republicans will continue to use it. Beat up on me. I understand that.


That's the way they are. But after 11 hours of testimony, answering every single question, in public, which I had requested for months, I think it's pretty clear that they're grasping at straws and this will turn out the same way."



11 hours? I’m sure there were “rapid-fire” questions, about her job being responsible for four dead men, coming from the GOP.  I’m also sure she got a bathroom break, a lunch break and I’m pretty sure she knew she was going to go home that night, to her family, a hot meal and a comfortable bed. It must have been sheer torture **tear** I wonder how that compares to 13 hours, dead bodies, two attacks in Benghazi and your country abandoning you in a Country that hates you and wants you dead?  Cry me and Effing River and sail away, until you have the answer!

Ted Cruz Warns Obama, Clinton & Rubio: "You'll Repeat History & ISIS will take over Syria"

By Elizabeth Nelson

Senator Cruz is watching and warning Obama, Clinton and Senator Marco Rubio that they are about to repeat history and offer up Syria on a gold tray for ISIS.  We've all heard and seen it, "Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results."  It doesn't matter what the "same thing" is, whether it's trying to repeat a failed gun ban from 1994-2004 or removing a country's dictator, believing that our intervention will magically "make the world safer." 

"Kill Moammar Gaddafi," they said.

"The world will be a safer place without him."  They said

So Obama bombed Libya and killed the "evil" dictator with Clinton and Rubio's support and look at Libya now.  The loss of the dictator caused a vacuum and something had to step into fill that void, why not al Qaeda at the time.  Now something even more evil is in control of Libya, with Gaddafi out of the way and unable to stop it. Hillary is still being effected by it, she lost her "good friend," Ambassador Christopher Stephens and three heroic men in an unstable Benghazi. 

Libya, a largely tribal nation, descended into chaos after Gaddafi’s fall, with two governments vying for power and armed groups battling for control of its vast energy resources.
Obama only caused a Civil war, within Libya, leading up to the killing of our men on the anniversary of 9/11 and you read that right, as of 10 days ago, Libya became ISIS' latest stronghold. It gets better,  Obama, Hillary and Senator Marco Rubio (the same people who voted to topple Gaddafi) now want to do the same thing to Syria.  


Obama's definition of insanity, remove Assad like he did Gaddafi, what could go wrong, it'll turn out different this time.  Of course, Senator Cruz is warning that ISIS will take over Syria if Assad isn't there to prevent it, just as they did Lybia.


"Arm the Syrian Opposition and Overthrow Assad," they said.
"This will make America Safer," they said.






No one is denying that Assad is a bad man. However, ISIS isn't threatening to cut off his head or fly their flag over his nation's capital, like they are Obama.  We don't see them taunting Assad and the Syrian people like they are Obama and the American people.  No, they are giving him a wide-birth and they listen when he speaks.


Obama has taken us so far backwards, it's going to take a strong President and a long time for us rebound from the damage he's done.  Our enemies don't fear us, our allies don't trust us and our nation has forgotten what decade we live in.  We have a cold war to refreeze, a civil unrest and "women's liberation movement" that needs to be put back in the 60s and 70s. Maybe then we can all start focusing on what's really important, instead of which lives are important, based on skin color or the body parts below our belt buckle.



At least Senator Cruz has learned from our history, even our mistakes.  This is the kind of leader need, someone who will learn from our history and not repeat it. 

"The enemy of my enemy isn't necessarily my friend." However, we have learned from our past that it's safer for America to, "keep our friends close and our enemies closer."  It's not the dagger in the hand that you see coming, but the one that slips between your shoulder blades in your back, from that hand of your friend you didn't see that takes your life.

Life is full of unexpected surprises. Learn from your mistakes and when someone shows you who they are, believe them - don't make mistakes for their bad behavior and poor choices.

The Problem with the #BenghaziCommittee

by Kim D.

We can squabble about a myriad of things when it comes to the tragic deaths of four Americans on 9/11/2012 in Benghazi; however, Hillary Clinton's 11-hour testimony yesterday only proved one thing - the Benghazi Committee is highly political. 

If you are a Progressive, you heard nothing new and thought Hillary shined, avoiding the past mistake of blowing her cool and screeching "What difference does it make?" If you are Conservative, your beliefs about Clinton and her role in the Benghazi tragedy are solidified - her policy and leadership in the region failed, and she lied about a video to cover up this failure and to protect Obama's campaign rhetoric that he'd conquered terrorism. If you fall somewhere in the political middle, you probably A) don't even know what all the Benghazi hoopla is about or B) don't care because you are tired of hearing about a scandal in which only fingers are pointed but no one is held accountable.

Democrat representatives provided cover for Clinton, guiding her through the testimony process with loaded questions meant to make her appear thoughtful and knowledgeable about foreign affairs. She also was given the chance to provide a dramatic monologue about the tragic night Chris Stevens, Sean Smith, Tyrone Woods, Glen Doherty were killed by terrorists.

Republican representatives went for the jugular - or at least they tried. The major points highlighted which are damning to Secretary Clinton are

  • her actions don't match her words - the emails provided to the committee do not show Clinton had a active relationship with Ambassador Stevens, who sent at least 600 requests for additional security, like she did with Sidney Blumenthal. Translation - she is no leader and wasn't an attentive boss lady.
  • her words at times are false - while the attack was occurring she told the American people a video was to blame, while emailing her family that it was a pre-planned, terrorist attack. Translation - she lied, period.
So, today Hillary and her supporters are giving a huge sigh of relief. She survived the Benghazi hearings and is now all but assured to be the 2016 Democratic presidential nominee. If you are not included in this group, Hillary's not your gal (nor would she ever be). 

In other words not much has changed, especially for the family who still mourns the death of those four brave Americans who were killed in Benghazi. They have nothing to cheer about nor do they care about the success or failure of Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign. The Benghazi Committee will push on and continue to interview witnesses behind closed doors until they are satisfied they have all definitive answers on what happened the night of September 11, 2012. All we can hope is that the final report will give these families some peace and closure.
