Oh you are soooo mean! I want her standing going all 15 rounds like Fraizer did with Ali, but that doesn't mean DJT can't give her every metaphorical political blow he can!
The amount of drugs they will have to pump into Sickery to prevent a seizure is going gone epic. LOL!
I, and many of us, have been saying all year that the "why" of the personal email system is the most important issue. Means, motive, opportunity. What was the motive? An insane jones about personal privacy? Or, a real practical need to keep prying eyes away from Foundation business?Leave aside Clinton’s scandals regarding her personal server and emails, which compromised top secret classified information and violated numerous laws.The deeper crime was the reason why she set-up a personal email system: to turn the Clinton Foundation into a secret slush fund to enrich her (and Bill) to the tune of hundreds of millions of dollars. Since the Clinton Foundation was created the Clintons have amassed nearly $240 million in personal wealth. This grotesque amount is only what we know; the real figure could — and probably is — much higher.
In other words, she engaged in a massive criminal enterprise involving selling access, bribery, influence-peddling and corruption, in which she pimped out vital national security interests and even positions within the State Department to major Foundation donors.
It was a classic “pay-to-play” scheme. The Russians, Saudis, Gulf Arabs, Chinese, the Muslim Brotherhood — practically every U.S. enemy benefited from it.
Yes, their personal wealth might "only" be $240 million, but the Foundation had $450 million in assets as of Dec. 2014, and for the last year and a half, I'd bet it's raked in at least that much again, as it looked like Hillary would get elected. While they can't touch and hold that money in exactly the same way as their personal money, they control it. It sends them and their cronies all around the world in first-class comfort. The minimal amount they have to donate doesn't even deplete it very much, as the accrued funds also earn tax-free income.
She is corrupt beyond belief, and it has made her rich.
Preach it, fellow FReeper!The Constitution directs us to be extremely suspicious:
Obama nominated Hillary Clinton to be SoS during his honeymoon period in ’09, with a filibuster-proof Senate and a strong majority in the House. Under those circumstances Hillary was able to get the Senate to confirm her, even when the Senators knew about the Foundation. But the House of Representatives was not asked to vote to allow her to remain a principal in the Foundation, which was soliciting and accepting money from foreign governments, while she was in federal office. For that matter, AFAIK the Foundation existed before her nomination to SoS, while Hillary was a NYS senator and therefore already "holding [an] office of profit or trust under” the US.
- Article 1 Section 9:
- No title of nobility shall be granted by the United States: and no person holding any office of profit or trust under them, shall, without the consent of the Congress, accept of any present, emolument, office, or title, of any kind whatever, from any king, prince, or foreign state
Clearly Hillary was in violation of Article I Section 1 from the first acceptance of foreign government money by the Clinton Foundation until the day she left office as SoS.
It is not even necessary to prove that the Foundation is a scam. Hillary was under obligation to prove that it was a legitimate, even necessary, charitable work. To Congress, in advance. In advance of each and every acceptance of material benefit from a foreign government. She didn’t, and she must divest herself of any interest in it.
For starters.
This article assumes the election is going to be a fair one.
“Why are we excluding dictators?”
There’s the question.

Billybooboo's got the Mrs woodrow wilson playbook, who governed when hubby took sick.
Actor Pat Buttram (played the crafty Mr Haney on Green Acres) was
a staunch Republican. Buttram gave Ronald Reagan folksy quips to
pepper his speeches.
Buttram says he saw right through Bill Clinton's hokey, hillbilly,
"aw shucks" slack-jawed persona that Clinton adopted to dupe the
electorate.
Incidentally, here's a snap of Pat Buttram's wife.
Mrs Buttram----actress Sheila Ryan.

Okay but, that doesn't mean she "has already lost"; if, by some miracle of Divine intervention, she fails to finish her term, she or her heirs will get away with her ill-gotten fortune intact. Anything less than a felony conviction means she won. If she wins in November, it's America who's already lost.
Moreover, she is Nixon in pant suits. Watergate eventually destroyed him. Clinton’s rampant criminal behavior will destroy her as well.
Hah. Nice thought but, the media, Hollywood and Congress had a lot to do with Nixon's fall. NONE of them will turn on HilLIARy to the extent they skewered Nixon.

I couldn't agree more. The power of the media can't be underestimated. If they are on your side you can get away with murder, over and over.
“Dirty political tricks is one thing—that’s how he picked up the nickname “Sid Vicious”—but assuming that knowledge extends to advice on international operations of State seems like a big stretch. It seems reckless and stupid.”

“BACKSTORY Longtime Clinton crony, Sid Blumenthal was the conniving Clintons’ bagman-—a $325,000 employee of the Clinton Foundation, he had numerous paid side interests——promoting any number of foreign deals and schemes in which he had a financial interest.....many of which were predicated on the toppling of Libya’s Khadaffi.
Blumenthal was ambidextrous-—chronically emailing Hillary Libya foreign policy messages w/ one hand....his other hand firmly in the State Dept cookie jar.
In one confidential e-mail to Clinton, Blumenthal was clearly colluding w/ onetime Amb Joe Wilson (Valerie Plame’s hubby) to help himself to the tax dollars in the State Dept cookie jar. “
