Bill: "“You just have to be transparent and tell the truth,” he said."

A typical Bill Clinton in-your-face.

"The former adviser said the comparisons to former GOP presidential nominee Mitt Romney are different because “people didn’t know him that well.”

A lot of voters know the Clintons all too well.

I’m surprised that these articles fail to mention Chelsea’s statements regarding money.

The only way Chelsea could be so out-of-touch is if she was raised by equally clueless parents. She is only reflecting the attitudes that she learned from them.

Poor and middle class people care about money. Privileged rich kids don’t have to care about it.

“You just have to be transparent and tell the truth,” he [Bill Clinton] said.

I propose this as an entry in the dictionary definition of "chutzpah."

"With Hillary and Chelsea Clinton looking on from the audience of a hotel ballroom, he explained that Hillary Clinton’s comment two weeks ago that the couple was “dead broke” when they left the White House was “factually true.”

Interesting, Bill is usually pretty politically savy but he's kicking a stinkball on this one. Drop it. Drop it now. It's a can't win argument. No working person is going to buy it, rather, they will resent it, no matter what technicalities he tries to sell. To have the gall to try to make the argument is in itself proof that you are hopelessly out of touch and firmly entrenched in the 1%.

“Clintons are in damage control mode”

It wouldn’t be a day of the week that ends with a Y if they weren’t.

Remember that great line “You can’t handle the truth”. With the Clintons whether it was political policy, personal behavior and insight, interpersonal relationships, these narcissists never knew the truth.

Bill Clinton really wants this third term oly this time, his wife will be too busy torching what's left of the Country to pay attention to his extracurricular activities with the White House interns.

The Clintons are relying heavily on "white privilege" to get back into office. The Clintons' have benefitted from, and are climbing back into office, using privileges far beyond those of the working class voter.

"White privilege" denotes the array of advantages the Clintons have cultivated over years in public office. They are over-shadowed by the endless perks of "white privilege":

<><> massive wealth....

<><> multiple homes in posh enclaves....

<><> the chain of high public offices....

<><> privileged friends in high places....

<><> global connections....

<><> constant affirmations of their own worth....

<><> greater social status...

<><> the expansive freedoms wealth and connections provide...

<><> unlimited access to the press to speak freely.....

<><> Bill/Hillary memoirs made millions....

<><> book deal signed in Dec 2000 for $8 million....

<><> three tax-exempt family foundations worth hundreds of millions....

<><> Clinton foundation endowment skyrockets to $200 million overnight....

<><> Hillary's $200,000 speeches to "non-profits".......

<><> Bill's tax-paid cushy pension and benefits....

<><> tax-paid Clinton Library (Hollywood bête noir Sultan of Brunei a donor).....

2016 Hillary is relying on the "income equality" bugaboo to hoist herself into office. That is "white privilege" in a nutshell.

The Clintons strategy is to label others as "different" while presenting themselves as "normal"....The Clinton "normal" is hundreds of millions of dollars laying around without ever having a real job.

Now known as “Lunch-Pail Hillary,” she planned to run a populist campaign, “critical of the Wall Street types”....that's after Hillary pocketed $200,000 from Goldman Sachs.

Yep, the Clintons are now part of the evil “one-percenters” and should be taxed out of wealth existence because Democrats don’t think it’s fair they have money while others don’t have so much.

"He also said that he and the former secretary of State go to their local grocery store on the weekends and talk to people in our town."

Oh, how sweet of Billie. They actually talk to the "little people". This just begs for a follow up question. Really, you go to the grocery store. So, how much does a loaf of bread cost at your grocery store?

Former President Bill Clinton on Tuesday defended his wife as “not out of touch,” and lashed out at the criticism...

Wow! The Clintons criticizing their criticizers!!! Where in Alinsky's "Rules for Radicals" can we find that strategy, Page One or Page Two?

Gaming the system is the name of the Clinton game---the conniving Clintons will say and do anything to get their filthy hands on our tax dollars.

BACKSTORY When Billy, the Boy From Hope, burst upon the political scene as a presidential candidate....he duped the voters and coached his Arkansas Mafia friends to say, “Money doesn’t mean anything to Bill Clinton"........

Now we hear he got a hundred million dollars while his wife controlled the State Dept checkbook......monies that were meant for Haiti (the place where the Clintons spent their honeymoon).

BETTER ADD THIS IN, TOO News reports say the State Department announced it has "no idea" what happened to $6 billion used to pay its contractors..... a special “management alert” warned “significant financial risk and a lack of internal control at State has led to billions of unaccounted dollars over the last six years....under Hillary's watch.

Becoming president has a pretty good monetary return. That poor boy from Hope, Ark, made over $200,000,000.00 (that we know of) as a “public servant.”

=============================================

Lawyers Bill and Hillary have held no other jobs but “public service”---they didn't have a pot to *** in in Arkansas---didn't even own a home. But they are experts at gaming the "public service" system for themselves. The Clintons conniving has enriched them. They are now worth more than $200 million dollars.....and counting.

How did they make the money? In several ways.

(1) Bill's calculated moves w/ his presidential pen and official policies profited numerous cronies and entities.....who are now being hit up for donations to the /three Clinton tax-exempt "foundations.....and to enrich Hillary.

(2) Bill's pardon pen was useful in pardoning diverse voting blocs which got Hillary elected to the US Senate as a prelude to her presidential ambitions.

(3) The Clintons game the system 24/7....their only goal in politics is to control the money.

It's worth noting that Hillary Clinton's 2008 presidential bid was derailed by Democrats who used a jug-eared nitwit of a former Kenyan exchange student to put an end to her aspirations that year.

Hillary claims to have not driven a car since 1996. That sounds out of touch to me.

***He said Americans don’t “resent somebody else doing well. They resent that they’re not getting a fair deal.”***

Americans yes, Hilary, no. She resents the hell out of somebody else doing better than her. Thus her desire to distance herself from the “truly well off”.

She’s just not getting a fair deal. </s
