Hillary DoesThe Entire Talk Show Gamut In An Attempt To Rescue Her Failing Candidacy
A restoration of a candidate. The New and improved Hillary. Watch out Barack, she’s on her comeback tour!
A synopsis of her remarks on the talk shows on Monday morning 12/17/2007:
The Old Hillary:
Many of you are well enough off that the tax cuts may have helped you. We’re saying that for America to get back on track, we’re probably going to cut that short and not give it to you. We’re going to take things away from you on behalf of the common good.”
-Hillary Clinton (At a fund raising speech in San Francisco)
…
The American people are tired of liars and people who pretend to be something they’re not.
-Hillary Clinton
…
I’m not going to have some reporters pawing through our papers. We are the president.
-Hillary Clinton
…
“Come on Bill, put your dick up! You can’t f**k her here!!”
(From the book “Inside The White House” by Ronald Kessler, p. 243 - Hillary to Gov. Clinton when she spots him talking with an attractive female at an Arkansas political rally)
…
F**k off! It’s enough that I have to see you shit-kickers every day, I’m not going to talk to you too!! Just do your G*damn job and keep your mouth shut.”
(From the book “American Evita” by Christopher Anderson, p. 90 - Hillary to her State Trooper bodyguards after one of them greeted her with “Good morning.”

This is absolute filth. God help you for the lies and distortions you report. And I can’t believe that Real Clear Politics even links you to their site. In any case, the joke is on you when Hillary wins the nomination and the election. Her strong presidency will succeed despite people like you. Shame.

What trash you print. How low can you get. Realclearpolitics what on earth are you doing linking such trash to your website. It is a shame.
Hillary will win the nomination. She will become the incumbent.

I’m bound to say this is the most total nonsense and I’m a Republican. This whole press narrative about Clinton imploding etc. is simply not borne out by the polls as far as I can see. She’s miles ahead in overall numbers and specifics in all the national and most of the state polls. In IA where the polls are very iffy she seems to be tied and has just got the endorsement of the largest newspaper in the state. I think this blogger is the victim of his own prejudices rather than reflecting what’s really happening out there.

I am a fair minded person and I don’t mind if someone doesn’t care for my candidate, so long as it’s based on the facts and not National Enquirer level journalism. If you disagree on the issues then so be it, but when you start spewing bogus quotes you lose all credibility. Is Hillary perfect? Absolutely not. None of the candidates is. Junk like this doesn’t do anything to help the discourse to identify who will best lead this country.
18 Dec 07 at 12:18 pm
E,
The problem is, these are not bogus quotes. Nor are they quoted out of context. The woman wants to take money from you and I and give it to other people (that she deams worthy). What is worse, she thinks that the money you and I earn, belongs to the government and that it can be taken from our pockets at her whim.

Perhaps the term “bogus quotes” was incorrect. Indeed these are real quotes, but from completely bogus accounts that have never been substantiated by any neutral investigation. Hillary doesn’t want to take everyone’s money away - one of the responsibilities of living in a free society is to make sure that the lesser in that society is protected, thus access to education and health care are key. Now, if you disagree with this, then that’s fine. But I believe it is my responsibility to give a damn about my fellow man instead of what’s in my bank account. God knows I don’t make a lot of money (I’m in education) but I am okay with paying my taxes when they help people. What I’m not okay with is paying taxes right now to a president who is out of touch and has sent us into the worst deficit spiral in history. What is nice is that when Hillary is the nominee, the tired republican talking points are easily debunked and proven wrong. A candidate who is for women’s and childrens rights, universal health care, an energy policy that frees us from dependence on middle east oil, and for a balanced fiscal policy. Wow…now that’s a nightmare. Please.

E,
I find it so telling that you equate paying taxes to helping people. Unfortunately, too many Americans, like you, believe our tax system is a vehicle to provide for “womb to tomb” care of others. That is clearly not what the framers had in mind. You can support any charity or non-profit organization of choice and help many Americans but don’t force money out of my pocket through taxation for the same purpose! Like it or not, I have no obligation as a free citizen to fend for anyone but myself and those of my choosing. But I do give to my church, local youth organizations and others. Our society is slowly sliding toward socialism. Too many of us want our heath care, our drugs, our retirement and who know what else to be provided by the government. In case you haven’t noticed, that didn’t work to well in the Soviet Union, Cuba, China, North Korea….shall I go on?
I’m sorry E, but I get very frustrated when I see Americans that continue to go the American government “teat” and continue to want more and more…be it for themselves or others. Sadly, the politicians know that all they have to do to get and keep power is to keep giving you more and more.

Bern,
You’re entitled to your worldview as I am mine. That’s why we come from different areas of the political spectrum. I stated my philosophy in the previous post. But what I refuse to do is attack anyone personally, without true evidence, because I disagree with him/her. It irritates me to no end when people post anti-Hillary jargon when, in fact, the jargon is spun so far from its original context and meaning that it isn’t accurate. If people don’t like Hillary for her policies, then fine. But this drivel of demonizing her efforts and her personality isn’t at all productive. So we have a fundamental disagreement about the role of government. Yet, it’s interesting that charitable organizations, especially those that are faith based, have just as much waste and mismanagement as some government programs.

And, just to clarify, taxes help everyone, including you. Taxes are the only way that this country maintains its infrastructure, whether that is roads, national defense, FEMA, or educational assistance. Any just society is not a structure in which an individual is only concerned with the individual. If someone has not had access to a decent education, he/she is likely not to make a living wage, therefor unable to afford health care. So, when the child of that person becomes ill, then it is our responsibility to assist, because money was not invested at the beginning of the cycle. Don’t know about you, but I’d want that child to have health care assistance.
18 Dec 07 at 2:56 pm
E,
I’m in total agreement about maintaining infrastructure, defense, etc. with taxes. But FEMA? The relief work they do is acceptable but I have a hard time swallowing my tax dollars rebuilding homes in known flood areas. Sorry.
Also, no American…or anyone for that matter, can be denied medical attention at any hospital in this country. Now that may not meet your wish to provide “well-being” care but….
And there is no doubt that some charitable organizations have squandered funds. But when they do, I can choose not to support them with my dollars in the future. I do not have that luxury with my tax dollars.
18 Dec 07 at 3:12 pm
And let me clarify…I have no problem paying taxes. I feel it my obligation to pay my fair share. But I don’t feel it my responsibilty to pay for social programs with my taxes.

John - you are exactly right. I’m of the opinion that the press and bloggers are making much ado about nothing. As I see it, the intent is to make it look like she’s going through difficult and challenging times in the early primaries but will overcome in the end. Then they’ll prop her up like she’s Winston Churchill or something. I mean….they buy into her campaign schtick of her being the most experience leader. Are you kidding me? Joe Biden or Bill Richardson maybe…but her? I can’t believe she doesn’t bust out laughing after she says stuff like that. But her buddies in the press give her a free ride. Pretty amazing.
Geez…I hate being so cynical but the press is totally in bed with the Democrat party. Mark my words….this is how it will play out….the press will be fawning all over Hillary after she pulls off what husband Billy-boy says will be a “miracle” win in Iowa. Please!!!!

Bern,
FEMA provides important disaster relief (although of course it failed miserably in Katrina) though I agree with you about people building in disaster prone areas. But this is more of an institutional issue that should be addressed internally in terms of where home should be rebuilt - I don’t mind rebuilding for those who cannot afford insurance for housing, so long as the housing is not built right in the path again.
It is not true that any American can get medical attention, especially in a timely manner. Because Americans cannot afford health insurance, emergency rooms are inundated and have to turn people away, starting with those who are uninsured. I’m not sure where you’re getting your info on this one. The irony here is that if Americans had better health insurance, our (yours and mine - who can probably afford health insurance) costs will decrease. Preventative medicine and “wellness” are crucial in maintaining a healthy populus.
18 Dec 07 at 3:29 pm
Bern,
You’re right about the buzz. The press is trying to manufacture major drama here. Though I don’t believe the press is in bed with the democrats, given that for many, many years they’ve taken it pretty easy on Mr. Bush.
18 Dec 07 at 3:34 pm
E,
Emergency rooms are prohibited by law from turning away anyone who is truly in need of medical attention. Period. And most emergency rooms will even treat simple medical issues, sprains, contusions, etc. They pass those costs on to tax payers and insurance companies. Trust me, this is fact and I have intimate knowledge of the process.
And if you think the press has taken it easy on Bush then you haven’t been paying attention. Let’s see. There was Dan Rather and his story about his National Guard service. If you’ve ever watched a press conference, you’ve no doubt seen the total distain and disrespect that has been given to a sitting President. Tough questions are okay. But the tone and rancor that the main stream press has taken towards him is shameful. I’m not happy with every thing our President has done. But there has to be objectivity in reporting.
It’s a known fact that the majority of journalists are Democrats. Unfortunately, I don’t feel that their bias is tempered. To say that the majority of media is not slanted toward the liberal agenda is naive. Or maybe they are just espousing the “truths” you believe.
Don’t get me wrong, E. I can certainly tell by your posts that you bring intelligence to the table. Our views of what the responsibilities of the government should provide are in contrast. But to deny that what Katie Couric spews out is not more editorial in content than what opinion writers might say is just off the mark.
This is unfortunately a very divisive time we live in. As I see it, the Democrat party is more concerned about wielding power and buying votes than they are about the well being of our country. Their current grand-standing over the budget tells the tale.
18 Dec 07 at 6:29 pm
One more thing, E. If you think that socializing health care in this country will lower costs and improve coverage, just ask the folks in Canada that have to wait up to twelve months to receive a knee or hip replacement if they like their system. Or ask the over 100,000 British citizens that will be traveling abroad for surgery this next year how they feel about there system.
You’re right…I pay for my health insurance. But I needed and MRI done and I was able to get an appointment in a week. If Hillary or Obama get their way, I have to drop my insurance and succumb to the will of the federal goverment. Why anyone would want to hand their health care over to the people that have totally screwed up Social Security, Medicare, etc, is beyond me. Be careful what you ask for. In the future, you might have to go to your “designated” health care provider and wait in lines that make the DMV line look like the express check out at the grocery store. What has happened to America self reliance. May God help us.
18 Dec 07 at 6:38 pm
Bern,
If you read your post, you’re making my point about health care. If more citizens had access to health insurance that is affordable, they can then go to the doctor when first symptoms appear versus heading into the emergency room and clogging up emergency care. I also am very familiar with health care and have family members who work in the ER. It has been a practice in hospitals not to provide timely service (not because they don’t want to but because ERs are filled with anything from a sniffle to a stab wound). This is a direct result of citizens not having health insurance. What Clinton is proposing is not government-run insurance, but offering citizens a choice in providers.
What’s sad is that a hard-working mother or father, who puts in 60-80 hours a week at a minimum wage job that provides no benefits can hardly put food on the table for their families, let alone afford health insurance. That’s why I support universal health care. I work with students from low income backgrounds and help them achieve admission to colleges and universities. Yet, there are so many hurdles for students who don’t start out with a leg up. The current administration has done nothing to help students achieve an education, which in turn reduces the need for a lot of social programs. The administration’s response to this a few years ago was to offer more student loans, but what was never covered by the media (the liberal media…) was that these loans are high interest-bearing loans and typically cannot be consolidated with other student loans. So they saddle young graduates with high bills, and they have to make choices. Pay your student loans or purchase health care? Is that a good choice?
The press is finally starting to question Bush like he should have been questioned all along. But where were they honestly when Bush (and most everyone in Congress) was beating the war drums to Iraq? They passed on the misleading information to the public and sold the war for this administration. The press is lazy, regardless of who they cover, and they cover nothing of substance anymore. Soundbytes, celebrities, and polls. But it is hardly liberal-leaning. Just look at the absence of progressive talk shows whether they be on television or the radio. Dan Rather’s investigation has since been backed up. He was practically lynched when he broke that story, yet the press was cowed by fear of the current administration.
18 Dec 07 at 7:15 pm
E,
Actually, I believe you made my point. While it might not be timely to you, folks who do not have health insurance and/or can’t afford to pay for the service are not turned away. What a pity that someone who’s not going to pay for a service be made to wait a few hours for it. True emergencies are dealt with promptly regardless.
There are liberal (progressive) talk shows. It’s just that no one listens to them. Why is that I wonder? The fact is that if these shows were popular with the masses and made money the radio and TV networks would be providing them. Air America even paid stations (with Boys & Girls Club funds - but we’ll save that for another conversation) to run their programming. It’s a miserable failure. But fear not, if the Dem’s have their way, the “Fairness” doctrine will be enacted to silence all the conservative voices on the air waves. Funny how the Dem’s scream about monitoring over-seas calls coming into our country but are standing in line to pull the plug on talk shows that call them out for their actions.
And now to continue to perpetrate the myth that conservatives don’t care about the poor: What on earth is a person that makes minimum wage doing having children if they can’t properly care for and EDUCATE them? (It’s a parents job to see that their child is properly educated…not the governments.) They have absolutely no right to expect the tax payers to provide for them….nor does anyone have the right to demand others to do it. This country has created a welfare class of individuals that don’t lift a finger to better themselves because there is no reason to do so. They keep getting their checks. The greatest thing Bill Clinton did in his presidency was to sign the welfare reform act. Unfortunately, it didn’t go far enough.
It was self-reliant individualism that made this nation what it is. I find it very telling that the decline of our society can be shown in parallel to the continuing welfare state we are creating.
E, I appreciate and understand your compassion and concern. No one wants to see others suffer. But as someone with libertarian ideals, I think the government has far overstepped it’s authority in our lives. All I see are politicians going around this country telling everyone what they’re going to give them….health care, government IRA’s, Baby bonds(!), free college…you name it, they’ll give it. All the while gleefully proclaiming that they’ll tax the rich to do so. And with this perverse tax system, they’ve created a tax exempt voting class to help keep them in power.
I don’t mean to get off into a rant here…….
