As we enter an election year perhaps it's time to turn our attention to Hillary Clinton's presidential ambitions. Whether she runs this year is still a mute though quickly fading point. Nevertheless, it still pays us to see how she and her rabid supporters are prepared to sacrifice the lives of others in order to satisfy her lust for power.
When in early 2000 the president of the NRA suggested that Bill Clinton found a certain level of violence acceptable for political reasons there was outrage in the leftist media. Perish the thought. Clinton might not be honorable but he is at least humane, regardless of what Juanita Broaddrick claimed, or so said his supporters
Having observed the Clintons for some time, albeit from a distance, I had concluded that the NRA's president was far too charitable. Some may still find this assessment shocking; an expression of mindless Clinton-baiting. But certain incidents that had occurred in New York several years ago more than bear it out.
Playing the race card is a dangerous and ruthless game and one at which the Dems are experts. In the old South it sometimes resulted in the lynching of blacks. In 2000 it was the NYPD that was lynched. The irony is that the Democrats' new form of race-baiting led to a higher murder rate among the city's minorities. Why? Because restricting police activities made the streets safer for dangerous criminals. Figures showed that within months of the Street Crimes Unit being disbanded the murder rate in the Bronx police precinct leapt by 70 percent.
Using the Diallo tragedy as an excuse, Democrats ruthlessly played the race card and forced the police commissioner to disband the unit, even though they were told this would cause a rise in violent crime. But to people like Hillary and her progressive friends a few more dead blacks and Hispanics is a small price to pay to fulfil her ambition to become the countrys first female president.
Hillarys media elite and the Manhattan set could hardly hide their disappointment when New York's finest refused to behave like a bunch of Brownshirts when Dorismond's funeral was used to mask a calculated attack on them. Wielding clubs, throwing bricks and hurling threats and obscenities Hillarys supporters launched themselves at the lightly armed police.
Heroic is the only word that sums up the restraint the police exercised, even though it put 23 of them in hospital. I don't doubt for a moment that if any rioter had been killed this would have been used as an excuse to set off more race riots. This would have seen Hillary and her media lackeys solemnly intoning that moderation and restraint was called for in the face of Giuliani's provocations.
Of course Hillary is far too sensitive to directly engage in race-baiting and hate-mongering she had the likes of the viciously anti-Semitic Al Sharpton to do that for her. She also had an ideological guarantee from the city's leftist media to push the anti-police anti-Giuliani line, blaming every crime by a rogue cop and every police killing on Giuliani's fascist policies. The more dead blacks and Hispanics the happier these reporters appeared to be. Never forget, its the cause that matters, and Hillary is their cause.
But political violence and Hillary are old friends. In her youth she was an active supporter of the murderous drug-dealing panthers, organising support for those of them who tortured and then murdered Alex Rackley. She has never expressed the slightest regret for those actions nor has America's fearless liberal media ever held her to account for what she did.
Hillary's politics fermented in the radical college cauldron of race hate. It has now matured into a subtle race demagogue who ruthlessly use dead blacks and Hispanics as stepping stones to the White House. This is the kind of thing decent Americans should recall should Hillary ever run for president.
Good point! Thanks.
First, it seems the DEMS aren't too particular. Does this mean that a DEM President is a puppet of the DNC? (And the DNC is a puppet of......??? .....??? .......??? Time's up. Answer was George Soros)
Second, how much has Meister Soros 'given' to Hillary that is unreported?

Socialism is the art of second-guessing the productive as a substitute for producing. Not only is journalism perfectly situated to second-guess, second-guessing is the easiest way to make journalism profitable.I believe that to be the nexus between "liberalism" and journalism--and I believe that journalism is the pilot fish of liberalism--what makes a "good story" also produces a "liberal" propaganda wind.
