Are the Clinton secret police back on patrol?
It looks like they may be making a late campaign comeback.
In a week-end column, Robert Novak alleged that agents of Hillary Clinton are spreading the word that she has scandalous information about Barack Obama, but decided not to use it. (How considerate of her!)
Obama has come out swinging, accusing the Clinton campaign of trying to swift-boat him and demanding that Clinton either release the information or admit that there is none.
The Clinton camp is shocked that anyone would ever think that it would use such tactics!
Clinton campaign Communications Director (and KGB enforcer look-alike) Howard Wolfson claimed that the campaign had no idea what Novak was talking about. Absolutely!
And, as usual, Wolfson tried to turn the embarrassing issue for Hillary into a problem for Barack, claiming he was naive for believing what was in the Novak column.
A Republican-leaning journalist runs a blind item designed to set Democrats against one another. Experienced Democrats see this for what it is. Others get distracted and thrown off their games, Wolfson said.
Does anybody really believe that Hillary hasnt been gathering dirt on her opponents? Anyone with any experience in politics knows one thing for sure: Hillary Clinton plays the game rough and dirty and she has a sordid history of using private investigators to find scandals in the background of anyone who gets in her way.
While Hillary righteously lectures the candidates about mudslinging, her boys in the back room are readying the dirt to leak when shes not doing too well.
Remember in the 1992 campaign when Gennifer Flowers and other women were harassed by private detectives? The Clintons used campaign money to pay over $100,000 to private investigators to scare off the women. (Now theyve learned to bury their investigative costs in lawyers bills.)
And does anyone think it was a coincidence that Republican speaker of the House and the chairman of the Judiciary Committee were outed for extra-marital affairs just at the time that the impeachment vote was about to take place?
Or that there were off the record calls to journalists from the White House accusing Monica Lewinsky of being a stalker?
And what are the odds that the recent rumors about John Edwards came from Clinton operatives?
Thats how the Clintons try to obliterate their opponents, with Hillary at the helm. As she runs for commander-in-chief of the United States, shes already the commander of the Clinton secret police.
The Clintons have no regard for the privacy of those who get in their way. Their clumsiness in bullying Linda Tripp cost the Department of Defense about $600,000 when she won her lawsuit for invasion of privacy after they arranged to illegally leak confidential information from her personnel file.
To paraphrase Hillary, privacy is just a word if you dont have the experience and strength to know what to do about it.
And Hillary sure does know what to do.
As she told Sidney Blumenthal when the Lewinsky scandal broke: Well just have to win.
Winning at any cost is the Clinton mindset. So watch for more dirty tactics whenever Hillary and her team feel under attack.
Can we really afford to have a president who acts this way?
Yes. But frankly, the Peter Paul thing is light in comparison to so much of what the Clinton’s have done. It just looks like a “campaign finance thing”, and “everyone does it”. I’d really think that their accumulation of personal wealth, from questionable sources, is more damning. Also, the connection to Soros, in ligth of his shorting the dollar for her campaing, is an unusual irony. Sell the dollar short, make a profit, give it to hillary just seems like it would resonate with the voter.
The swift-boat vets told the truth. McCarthy was right, but even he didn't find all the commies.
You might also want to watch The Manchurian Candidate with Frank Sinatra and Angela Lansbury.
The resemblance is undeniable!!
Nothing like a good DemocRAT catfight... popcorn time.
And speaking of Swamp Thing...
That’s fine, but this is a case going to court in 2008. Under oath will be defendant Bill, possible defendant Hillary (an appeal is before the Cal Supreme Ct), Chelsea, Gore, Rendell, McAuliffe, etc. We have evidence on tape of the solicitation of an illegal $1.6 mil hard money, in-kind donation. It has been covered up by Hillary with the help of a US Attorney. When the facts start coming out in the mainstream media, which they will have to report when she is deposed, we will see if it has some sizzle.
NO, you idiot, it cost the American taxpayer that money.
Well, we certainly remember Bill last time he was under oath...
Or, they are threatened and terrorized into submissive cooperation.
I suspect that the Clintons might (might) have some familiarity with both methods of...um... diplomatic persuasion.
Hard to believe there was an FBI file on Obama in the 90s.
No, so she’s stealing something new. Not like they got busted last time. They always get away with it...
