How much I Love the Clintons!

If you want to understand the Clintons’ tactics to get what ever they want at all cost, watch the movie, Election (1999) with Reese Witherspoon. Here is an excerpt written by Alejandro Frias:


“Jim McAllister (Matthew Broderick) is a Social Studies teacher at Carver High. A student of his, Tracy Flick (Reese Whiterspoon), tends to rub him the wrong way. Flick, a loner and ambitious girl, decides to run for class president. McAllister convinces football player Paul (Chris Klein) to run against her. His lesbian sister Tammy (Jessica Campbell) joins the election after her girlfriend starts going out with Paul. During the campaigns, Tracy plays dirty, plying students with muffins and gum…”


They lie, they cheat, they swindle, they connive, they propagate false claims, they do not accept their failures, they… just want to be at the top.

When Hillary was leading in the polls before the primaries, she was not thinking about resorting to these dirty tactics, because she felt that she was the only formidable force. When she recognized that there were forces more formidable than her, she panicked, and resorted to her old ways-contriving with Old Bill to help her steal the spotlight once more. And there you have it: they have been propagating false claims and saying anything to give Hillary the edge. “What ever it takes”-they must and have to win!

Just today, Hillary denied knowing Tony Rezko, a former patron of the Obama campaign (whom she dubbed the “slum lord” during her tirade with Obama during the Democratic Black Caucus debate in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina), although she and Old Bill stood next to Tony in a photo taken in the 1990s. Here is her response when Matt Lauer asked her whether she knew Tony:
“I don’t know the man (Rezko); I wouldn’t know him if he walked in the door; I don’t have a 17-year relationship with him,” Clinton told Matt Lauer. “There’s a big difference between standing somewhere, taking a picture with someone you don’t know and haven’t seen since, and having a relationship that the newspapers in Chicago have been exploring.” (Source: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/22838678)

With this recent denial (we may never know the truth) about the Clintons’ relationship with Tony Rezko and the Clintons’ shrewd mannerism of evading the issues, can we say or conclude that they are psychotic liars? Oops! Maybe we’ll wait and see.

They say that an apple does not fall far from the tree. If this axiom is true, then the Clintons’ tactics of getting whatever they want at all cost may have been ingrained in them as early as their childhood. Or, it may be in their genes. We will only begin to understand why they think the white house belongs to them and nobody else not even the Republicans when we start inquiring about their mannerisms in the kindergarten, at family get together, at school, and at public gatherings, when their needs were not met. Join me in this solemn endeavor so that we do not put at the helm of this nation a tyranny as is the case of many countries in the world.
