Back Talk

It’s the same crowd that did the dirty deeds during slick Willie’s reign. Here’s the drill: a Clinton staff member –Hillary never does this herself since, like a mafia leader, she must have plausible deniability later on, fires a mud missile smearing the opponent. The next day, Hillary apologizes, declaring with heartfelt sincerety that she didn’t authorize the smear. Some wag said that sincerity is the best asset politicians can possess; once they have mastered that, they have it made. Hillary and her camp know full well that once they have planted the nasty seeds, the damage has done regardless of apology. They began their campaign a couple of weeks ago when an operative, just to put a little doubt into voters’ minds, said they had damaging information about Barack Obama’s past but because they were so ethical they were not going public with it. Then they announced that Obama lied when he said he had never had aspirations about being President – they actually traced it back to a statement he made in third grade. With every dropping percentage point, Hillary’s war room staff get more crazy. Last week, a Clinton staffer accused Obama of being part of a Muslim takeover of the U.S. Now, this week, another Clintonite accused Obama of not just using drugs in his younger years but selling them as well. Now, three bloggers have been ejected from a political web site for violating the site rules when the site manager traced the bloggers back to the Clinton Staff. I see that Hillary is airing TV ads in Spanish with promises that she will grant them free health care and provide millions and millions of jobs. No mention of where those jobs are coming from and she obviously avoided any mention of immigration reform or border security, just the usual DemPol “promise them free everything and worry about reality later.”
