Barnicle: Clinton Cash Won't Hurt Hillary Because Impossible to Quickly Explain Scandals
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 05/06/2015 5:38:33 AM PDT by governsleastgovernsbest

Timer ready? Go!: foreign countries and rich people gave millions to the Clinton Foundation and/or paid Bill big bucks to give speeches. In return, the State Department pushed policies favorable to them. And, stop! I timed that at exactly eleven seconds.

On today's Morning Joe, Mike Barnicle made the absurd claim that the shady dealings described in Clinton Cash, officially out today, won't hurt Hillary much because they're too hard for Americans to understand. "I challenge you to explain in one or two minutes to, you know, anyone, what is going on here with the Clintons and all this foundation money."

Sorry, Mike: it’s not hard to explain about crooked politicians.

Ping to Today show list.

The Clinton Foundation received money in exchange for access and action by Secretary Clinton.

Next.

Well, then, everything is OK and Hillary will make a fine president. This, from the vaunted Fourth Estate, guardians of the truth, protectors of the public interest: the sleazeball liberal media (I know, liberal is redundant)

Yep, it seems the left always relies on the “complexity” of their scandals to slide them by the public without political consequence.

“She’s on the take” - there explained it with four simple words.

“Foreign Governments paid Secretary of State Hillary Clinton to do what they wanted” sounds pretty quick to me.

Corruption. Gotcha beat. One word. Synonymous with Clinton.

Hillary is bought and paid for.

Not that hard

Hey...NSA, if you're listening, could you please dial up the FBI and deliver a message for me? Please investigate the Clintons on behalf of American citizens?

Thanx so much...roger, over and out.

Maybe Barnicle's plagaristic peabrain can't digest the facts on the crooked clinton foundation's actions in under 120 seconds, but 6% of the gross take sent to the poor isn't hard to grok around here.

Then again, there are no paid media whores covering for Hilary Fat Ass Cankles around here, either.

It is up to any potential Democrat candidates to take her out because the Republicans will be too “Gentlemanly” and concentrate their criticism to other Republican during the primaries.

If she is the Democrat nominee, she will be elected, thanks to the Low Information Majority.

Anyone else remember the beautifully-made graphics showing the relationships between the various players in Watergate that took up two-thirds of the broadcast time of the typical MSM evening news program back in 1973 and 1974?

The patient explanation of exactly who was Donald Segretti, Alexander Butterfield, G. Gordon Liddy, the Plumbers, the Committee to Re-Elect the President? Who Bebe Rebozo was? Who Robert Abplanalp was?

Why do I remember these names after more than 40 years?

Because even though it was impossible to explain Watergate quickly, the MSM sure as hell found time to do it.

I think it's his job to explain things in ways us little folks can understand. Since he is having trouble, I'll help

Companies and governments paid Bill to get certain things done. Then Hillary used her position as Sec of State to do those things.

Sure it's more complicated. But anyone who knows the accusations should be able to either call them lies or sum it up that simply.

....claim that the shady dealings described in Clinton Cash, officially out today, won't hurt Hillary much because they're too hard for Americans to understand most people aren't paying attention, don't care and are historically and politically ignorant.

There, fixed it.
