“When I was growing up, the neighborhoods I lived in were surrounded by farm fields, and every harvest season we had a lot of the migrants who come up from Mexico, through Texas, following the harvest, all the way up through Illinois and Michigan,” Mrs. Rodham Clinton has told the spellbound.
Of course millions of people across the country have no idea where Park Ridge is located. They don’t realize it is, was and forever will be an appendage of O’Hare International Airport, attached to Chicago like your nose is to your face.
Mrs. Rodham Clinton has been telling the Big Woods of Park Ridge story since 1996 when she told an audience: “Those of you who did not grow up around Chicago in the 1950s and can only imagine flying into O’Hare where everything looks developed, might find it hard to believe how many farm workers we would have.”
Maybe she mistakenly figured that the American Farm Bureau, headquartered in Park Ridge for decades, was actually a day labor purveyor of hired hands. Or that the State Farm insurance agency office in town was really a government welfare office for migrant workers.
Regardless, if tonight’s Chicago speech holds true to form, Mrs. Rodham Clinton will describe how she used to help migrant farm families in Park Ridge. “The children would go to school with us,” she has said many times, “and every Saturday morning my church group, we’d go out and baby-sit the younger children, so that the older children could join their families in the fields.”
She is correct that in Cook County in the ’30s and ’40s “farmers purchased most of the available land in the county and began raising crops and livestock.” There is just one problem. It was the 1830s and 40s...

Still waiting for her to announce she is a secret Medal of Honor winner during her secret stint in the Marines in Vietnam.
Somebody should e-mail this to Rush who played the speech and doubted the verity of the Grifter’s story...
Disgusting smell too I'd bet.
Rush ping (see #23)...
She’s learned from the master.
Sounds like she was aiding and abetting a sweatshop of child labor.
“I was born, a poor black child...” .............
Okay, so even as a young girl, she wants us to think she had a social conscience and was concerned about migrant farm workers and their families.
If she segways into talking about how difficult their conditions are today, a good question would be: What, if anything, did Bill Clinton do about the plight of migrant farm workers?
My God, that woman has an orgasm, figuratively speaking, when talking about the achievements of the Clinton Administration and how she hopes to build on those achievements.
And Chelsea really was jogging around the WTC towers as they fell, and she called Hillary to claim that Bush’s tax cuts were the cause.
That Chelsea later denies she was jogging at all was only because she was so tramatized that she forgot.
lol
IIRC, he played this on his show a week or so ago and quickly got a call from a guy who was in high school with Hillary! and said this story was a complete lie.
Against the Earth’s rotation as well.
“Perhaps Indian campfires were visible on the way.”
Of course they were! And, she made sure to visit the camps and apologize for the misbehavior of the white man;)
I remember the call. There was another a little later.
