Full title: Twitter Erupts Over News That Hillary Clinton Used Black Prison Labor While First Lady of Arkansas
Twitter users have reacted with surprise and fury over excerpts from Hillary Clintons 1996 book It Takes A Village. On June 6, Jeanette Jing, an activist with over 33,000 followers on Twitter who supports Clinton's Democratic opponent Sen. Bernie Sanders, shared two pages of the work in which Clinton reminisces about the black prisoners who worked in the Arkansas governors mansion she shared with her husband, Bill Clinton, who led the state from 1979 to 1981 and 1983 to 1992.
When we moved in, I was told that using prison labor at the governors mansion was a longstanding tradition, which kept down costs, Clinton writes. She adds that most of the workers were convicted murderers and she became friendly with a few of them, African-American men in their thirties who had already served 12 to 18 years of their sentences.
Despite her alleged friendships with these men, Clinton tells her readers: We enforced rules strictly and sent back to prison any inmate who broke a rule. Despite having no psychological qualifications, she later asserts that these men did not have inferior IQs or an inability to apply moral reasoning but instead they may have been emotional illiterates.

Emotional illiterates. Like her husband.
I'll bet she used to double park also.
LOL - ummm unless these 'unpaid black men' were paying for their room and board at their local prisons I have zero pity for them. Free room and board IS their pay... or better,they should start paying taxpayers back when they get out.
Sick of these types dumping expenses on innocent taxpayers.
Hillary is being forced to retire by the DNC.
Other than the NeverTrump idiots, the GOP would love to have her stay in there.
Sucks up all the $$$ from other possible candidates.
There are a great many statements that Hillary used the “N” word often. Any other politician or notable person would have been vilified and destroyed long ago.
I bet she never thought of them as N*****s. ................ Riiiiiiiight, its not what I heard from those around her during those years.

I think that’s “tarred”
Big House at that.
I am a bit surprised this is comming from Newsweek. She wanted to keep costs down....SINCE WHEN HAS SHE EVER DONE THAT......NEVER.
The final knife in the back.
The Rats want her gone.
Of course, which dem is that NOT true about?
I can hear the tune now....
Tear it down!
Birds of a feather...
Did they also keep track of Web Hubbell's visits to Hillary?
I’m sure they did, they have, some of them, came out in different articles and repeated what they knew, saw and heard...
That’s why blacks that matter love her . . . she is unwilling to let a mind go to waste, or arms, or legs. Uh, did she call them boys also?
And she treated them almost like they was white people too
"So? I'll have you know, some of my best friends are black.."
So? Her husband knowingly sold blood tainted with AIDS and/or hepatitis to the Cdn Red Cross, infecting hundreds of people.
