Hillary Clinton is right: We must get to the bottom of Russian influence buying, especially hers
2017-10-27
[FOX] Not since Eliot Spitzer, aka Client Number Nine, zealously prosecuted sex traders has someone so purposefully and hypocritically marched towards their own political execution.

Hillary Clinton has brought hellfire down upon her own head by demanding a thorough and intensive investigation into purported Russian meddling in the 2016 election.

She is right, Americans should be appalled at the idea that Vladimir Putin and his thuggish operatives might gain a foothold in our body politic. She is right again that Moscow has aggressively tried to subvert our democracy.

But it turns out that it wasn’t Donald Trump who was complicit in those efforts but Hillary Clinton, husband Bill, and possibly her boss Barack Obama.

These stories have circulated for some time; now there is proof. The Hill has reported that beginning in 2009 "the FBI had gathered substantial evidence that Russian nuclear industry officials were engaged in bribery, kickbacks, extortion and money laundering designed to grow Vladimir Putin’s atomic energy business inside the United States."

She might be a masochist and/or just plain stupid. Maybe she wants to get away from WJC and spend time for R&R in the Graybar Hotel. Maybe she is completely whacko or all of the above.

#4  I have yet to encounter a single story that puts Hillary in a good light.

She is the most malevolent evil troll of a person with which this country has ever had to deal. Her unlimited unlikeability is the only reason that she is not also the most dangerous.

#3  Hilda thought the fix was in for her coronation. She probably thinks the fix is in for keeping her out of jail. Maybe so, but the momentum seems to be building. It might all be Kabuki theater on the part of Congress and the DOJ. Sessions appears to be a nice guy. He also appears to be way in over his head. He is not a crime-fighting crusader.

#2  ...What I love about all of this is it shows, in Mount Rushmore-sized imagery, just how arrogant Hillary Rodham Clinton really, truly is. She and her handlers entered into all of this supremely confident that they were destined to waltz into the White House and never have to be concerned with it ever being revealed.

At the very first mention of the dossier, Trump was supposed to have gone into a defensive crouch that he'd never emerge from. The Republicans in Congress wouldn't have uttered a single word in his defense, and even if they had found out later that it was all false, they would have done nothing, and we know it. Hilary was going to be President, and it was probably better if we just accepted it.

It makes you wonder - the accounts we've seen so far say that it was maybe about two weeks before the election that Clinton's people started feeling a sense of impending doom. I think it was a lot earlier...when Trump didn't panic on the dossier reports. And by that point, they were so locked into their own expectations, they augered in with them.

Makes you wonder what a President Hilary would have done staring down an adversary who wasn't behaving the way she expected them to.
