Report: Hillary Motorcade Hit 95 mph on Way to Iowa Fundraiser
Newsmax ^ | 5/20/15 | John Blosser

Hillary Clinton apparently is in one heck of a hurry to become president.

While fleeing from the press to an unannounced fundraiser in Waterloo, Iowa, Clinton's six-car motorcade, including her maroon minivan dubbed "Scooby," was clocked traveling at up to 95 mph by reporters giving chase, the Daily Mail reports.

The speed limit for that stretch of highway is 65 mph, The Daily Caller reported.

While Clinton's staff denies the motorcade was speeding, the Daily Mail posted a speedometer video taken by a reporter showing the speeds at which they were driving in an attempt to keep up with Clinton to find out where the candidate was going.

However, Iowa law enforcement, instead of criticizing Clinton, blasted and threatened the reporters following her motorcade, The Des Moines Register reports.

Iowa Department of Public Safety spokesman Alex Murphy told the Register, "Amateur video that shows such behavior, which itself demonstrates a violation of the law by presumably untrained individuals, does not negate the fact that law enforcement takes action based on public safety and protection of the people who have been identified as potential targets."

"These types of dangerous driving behavior by amateurs may well result in law enforcement action. The designation of an individual as a protected person is taken seriously in Iowa."

Preview of her presidency. She will disregard the law, just like 0.

Morally and logically, this should put the nail in the coffin of any who are pro-speed limit and/or support Hitlery. Realistically, it won’t, because liberal zealouts believe that politicians are a divine upper class who are granted special rights in accordance to their moon god’s commands.

Laws only apply to little people. Not Clintons.

95mph isn’t that outrageous on a rural interstate. I think the speed limit should be 85 on most of them.

Reading comprehension 101: the article states the speed limit in question as 65.

So do you - along with th police, think it's okay for Her High-nASS to put others in danger?

Remember when Lyndon B Johnson was stopped for speeding while driving with his secretary down in Texas!

He got no ticket.

Not a bad plan. That is, if you want to get “Fostered.”

It's take months for Hitlery to get to a press conference, but she drives like a bat out of hell to get to a fundraiser!

That's a Clinton for you!

(and she was probably multitasking and covering up the latest Bill rape over her cell while on the way!)

That is the clear point - LAWS ONLY APPLY TO LITTLE PEOPLE and if you dare point that out, the full force of the “Law Enforcement” apparatus will be on you like white on rice. Note the comments. We are so far beyond the Rule of Law in this country. Laws apply to the little people, those in power do what they please.

In 2003 Bill Janklow (D) S. Dakota, ran through a stop sign at high speed and killed a motorcyclist. It was not a motorcade, though. He was driving the vehicle.

I once clocked a Democrat Congressman driving (I think alone) at 75 in a 25. It was a controlled road so he really wasn’t endangering anyone. On the other hand, the distance of that run was less than a mile. While he was late, driving that speed to save, at most, one minute shows a person TOTALLY FULL OF HIMSELF. Luckily we sent him back to the union hall very quickly.

I’m aware that it “says” 65. But typical ACTUAL speed on such roads is 80-90mph. With people passing at close to 100mph.

Going 65 would actually be more dangerous in such conditions.

They keep the 65 limit to pull out-of-state people over at will for revenue.

Why do you think the limit is 65? It's not the reason you think, pulling out-of-state people over. Think really, really hard. Why do you think some areas have higher speed limits than others? Take several days to think of the answer. I can wait.

Too bad it didn’t crash into a tree. They do have trees in Iowa, yes?
