The fictional and cinema hero Forrest Gump somehow always managed to turn up at historic moments in the latter twentieth century. But whereas Forrest usually had a positive role to play at the hinges of fate, the equally ubiquitous Hillary Gump usually appeared as a bit player who made things far worse.
Take the issue of government abuse, ethics, and public transparency. The modern locus classicus of government overreach was the Watergate scandal. Over forty years ago Hillary was there as a young legal intern purportedly advising the House Judiciary Committee during the congressional investigations. She was also reportedly let go by her superiors for unethical conduct quis custodiet ipsos custodes? From Watergate to Travelgate to Filegate to Whitewater to the current quid pro quos of the Clinton Foundation to her recent destruction of private emails and her private server while serving as secretary of State, Hillary Clinton has been at or near lots of government scandals of the last half-century. Twenty years ago Hillary Clinton was brazenly evading federal law by hiding her legal records from a court-ordered subpoena for documents in the same fashion that in 2015 she destroyed all traces of her email correspondence on her private server, in violation of State Department protocol and most likely federal law.

All one has to do is, as Prof. Hanson did, pointing out Hillary's looooong history. And she IS truly worthless.
But what the heck, the country is going down the toilet, anyway. I hope the young who supported Obama/Clinton democrats enjoy their new utopia.
Hillary's school picture--late 50"s---about 11 years old.
Hillary Clinton's father, Hugh Rodham, paid cash for the family's home
on Wisner Street in Park Ridge, Ill., with money he'd saved as the owner
of a drapery business.

“What difference at this point does it make?
I GUESS, I NO LONGER GIVE A $HIT who runs or who is elected. Republican or Democrat president will make no difference. That wonderful conservative Ronald Reagan gave us Anthony Kennedy. That not so great conservative George W. Bush gave us John Roberts. what can Hillary or even Cruz do to make it better or worse. Give us Barack Obama as the next Just-us?
Sorry, but my give a damn is irreparably broken.
Compare Hillary’s photo at 11 and Alfred E. Newman of MAD Magazine fame.
That innocent looking photo of her reminds me of the movie Bad Seed.
VDH is an excellent writer and I have a lot of respect for him, but he is not being fully accurate regarding Hidebeast and the watergate committee.
Bingo!!!
VDH ping ...
Hillary has been wishing people into the cornfield ever since.
Even the Wendy’s girl has gone from cute to Anthony Fremont lookalike.
The demon seed among us.
Google: Zeifman - Bortz interview.
The confusion stems from Zeifmans use of the word “terminated”, he meant “her contracted expired and her employment ended, along with all others when the work was over”
Zeifman did consider to bring her up on ethic violations before the Bar but chose not to.
Her behavior was horrible and there was cause to fire her before her contract ended. But it was not done.
That she wasn't technically "fired" is a very thin reed that you are hanging on to there. Depends on what the meaning of "is" is.
Yeah, I do have a thing for being accurate, I wish more people did.
Here is why I think it is important:
If we state that "Hillary Clinton was fired..." our opposition can state with accuracy that we are "lying", as she was not fired. This then forces us (Anti Hillary people) into a defensive posture. I do not like to be put into that position.
However, if we state that "Hillary's lack of ethics were so bad that she was considered for disbarment", that then is a true statement, which forces Hillary supporters to defend her lack of ethics. Thus we are then taking a position of strength and are on the side of ethics.
I did not mean to be short in the previous answer, but was not in a position to elaborate. Take care.
You take care as well. I didn’t take your reply as short at all.
