Hillary? Help Us

Bryan Griffin

A look at the true character of Hillary Clinton

How much do you need to know about a person to judge their character? What if I told you a person was indicted for underhanded deals involving a crooked law firm in Arkansas? What if I told you a person was involved in the unexplained suicide of a close friend and coworker? What if I told you a person makes up stories to get what they want, and unrightly, to gain sympathy? What if I told you a person was so rude, so unbecoming, so abhordily distasteful, that their closest friends came out with book after book, published works and journals, about that person’s evils? What if I told you this person wanted to be president of the United States – represent you and me on the international stage and in the eyes of the world? Of course, this is Mrs. Clinton.

Politics. If you want to look at Hillary from a political perspective, it is obvious why she would lead the Democratic Party right into the ground. In her political career, she has flipped and flopped more than John Kerry, called for change without result more than Barack Obama and has more lobbyists working for her and raising money for her than any other presidential candidate in the 2008 race. She supports the “Dream Act” to grant illegal immigrants school subsidies, tuition and immunity from prosecution. She is in favor of the “Strategic Energy Plan”, a $60 billion government initiative to have big-bureaucracy try and force the U.S. prematurely into a green energy state. She supports the “Employee Free Choice Act,” which would allow the leaders of workers' union parties to get personal information about people who didn’t wish to join unions in their jobs so they can be bullied into changing their minds. She’s in favor of the “Comprehensive Immigration Reform Act,” which gives charged criminals an easier path to citizenship and freedom in America than legal immigrants. She tried her “Hillary Care” plan in a trial run in a city in Oregon, it failed, and then she pitched it to the country as her way of saving us from the “Medicare crisis.”

Speech. What a person says tells a lot about that person. Hillary says she “dodged sniper fire” in Bosnia with her daughter Chelsea, and then later had to retract the statement as false, saying she says so many things in a day, she can often “slip up.” Hillary once told a story in a scare-tactic attempt to get people in favor of her health care plan, where a woman in Ohio recently died, along with her unborn baby, because they were unable to pay a $100 hospital fee. The O'Bleness Memorial Hospital in Athens later corrected the story, saying that it did admit the woman, who was fully insured and treated, and died during a stillborn birth.

Past. Hillary lost her investment in the Whitewater Development Corporation, her former business in Arkansas, where Bill was governor. They had two partners in the company, Jim and Susan McDougal, who operated Madison Guaranty, a savings and loan institution that used the legal services of her Rose Law Firm. They were indicted for improperly subsidizing Whitewater losses. Madison Guaranty later went bankrupt, and Hillary was investigated for a possible conflict of interest in representing Madison Guaranty before state regulators that Bill had appointed. Independent counsels Robert Fiske and Kenneth Starr subpoenaed Clinton's legal billing records, but she claimed to be unable to produce these records. The records were later found in Hillary’s White House book room after a two-year search and delivered to investigators in 1996. Vincent Foster was a close friend of the Clintons and worked with them at the Rose Law firm in Arkansas. He was appointed to the position of White House Deputy Counsel in 199, and worked with the Clintons until he became involved in their famous travel controversy in 1993. He, having insider knowledge of the controversy and possibly what really happened, committed “suicide” on July 20, 1993, in a park in Virginia. His death was at the age of 48 and came under three investigations, one by the FBI.

Person. How a person conducts themselves around others can tell a lot about their character and morals. In the book “Unlimited Access,” by Gary Aldrich, a 30-year veteran of the FBI and one who worked closely with the Clinton administration, Mr. Aldrich, provides crucial insight into Mrs. Clinton as a person. His most shocking encounter relates Hillary as she leaves church one Sunday afternoon, climbing into her Limo to be driven back to the White House. She was in such a bad mood that she picked up a Bible, chucked it at the back of her driver’s head and said, “Get the (expletive) home!” When three health insurance company executives visited the Oval office one day to have the first lady give her thoughts on their plan to curb the healthcare crisis, she entered the room saying, “Gentleman, I have looked at your proposal and it’s pure (expletive)! Now, you’ve had your meeting! Get out! (Aldrich, 88)” He relays that the White House staff was told, when she walks down the corridors, “…you’re not supposed to look at her. You’re actually supposed to go into an office if there is one nearby, she doesn’t want staff ‘seeing’ her (Aldrich, 89).” When asked to attend the annual Christmas ornament decorating ceremony at the White House one year, Mr. Aldrich recounts the following while rummaging through a box of Hillary’s ornaments:

“What’s so funny? What are you laughing at?” I asked.

“Don’t you know what you’re holding?’

No, I didn’t, but he (a White House florist) was happy to explain it to me: the golden rings I was holding were sex toys known as “cock rings.”

The Hillary on TV, bright, cheerful and hugging babies, is a great cover. Voters beware.
