Let me get this straight

1. One of the main issues that people have with Hillary is that it "looks like" she used her position at State to funnel money to Foundation donors.

2. Clinton's ideas to revitalize the economy are mostly around government stimulus.

3. The person she wants to put in charge of this revitalization is her husband who is the head of said Foundation.

And we're supposed to believe that all the people that are paying to put her in the White House and donating millions to her Foundation will not be getting plumb government revitalization contracts?

And the GOP won't notice this either... Allow her to "get stuff done"....


People that don't see what's happening here... Well... I'd better not finish that sentence. Let's just say no one has the right to be surprised at what happens if she somehow magically wins the White House.

3. "People that don't see what's happening here"...deserve whatever may come?

Maybe we deserve whatever may come.

I know you're not supposed to say this. Yeah I know. But sometimes, it's just how I feel. With the most detested democrat in history and the most ridiculous caricature of a country as two front-runners, and with once-in-a-lifetime candidate having to fight rigged elections and outright cheating, sometimes I get tired of being angry. Maybe we deserve it.

4. Clinton's call it "triangulation"...

... PO calls it "chess". GWB called it a "sales job." I call it a con job. A shell game.

5. I agree with your post, but must comment on item 2.

At the risk of sounding mildly (and unintentionally) salacious, "government stimulus" of what or whom?

IOW, are we really talking corporate welfare and more trickle down sans the trickle? Or are we talking Conservation Corps type government stimulus?

7. Thanks. FDR funded infrastructure, too, government employed people to build

buildings, paint murals, etc. His did not consist of corporate welfare/trickle down.

9. Solyndra deja vu all over again.

10. Bingo

Plus of course she's hired the owner of one of DC's lobbying firms as her campaign chairman so... Expect it's clients to get rich from tax money as well... richER
