Instead of booing, the audience should have broken into howls of laughter at that remark. It should have gone on for minutes.

after citing Hillary Clinton's impressive resume

Like WHAT?

Racking up those frequent flier miles and getting elected to the Senate from a state in which she never lived. That's something to brag about along with her Treason and being accessory to the murder of a US Ambassador. Did I miss anything important?

[McGruff]

Oops. Her democratic slip was showing.

[Rodm]

Hey it’s an impressive resume if your looking to join the mob.

"The Whitewater controversy (also known as the Whitewater scandal, or simply Whitewater) began with investigations into the real estate investments of Bill and Hillary Clinton and their associates, Jim and Susan McDougal, in the Whitewater Development Corporation, a failed business venture in the 1970s and 1980s."

Whitewater Convictions

Jim Guy Tucker: Governor of Arkansas at the time, removed from office (fraud, 3 counts)

John Haley: attorney for Jim Guy Tucker (tax evasion)

William J. Marks, Sr.: Jim Guy Tucker’s business partner (conspiracy)

Stephen Smith: former Governor Clinton aide (conspiracy to misapply funds). Bill Clinton pardoned.

Webster Hubbell: Clinton political supporter; Rose Law Firm partner (embezzlement, fraud)

Jim McDougal: banker, Clinton political supporter: (18 felonies, varied)

Susan McDougal: Clinton political supporter (multiple fraud). Bill Clinton pardoned.

David Hale: banker, self-proclaimed Clinton political supporter: (conspiracy, fraud)

Neal Ainley: Perry County Bank president (embezzled bank funds for Clinton campaign)

Chris Wade: Whitewater real estate broker (multiple loan fraud). Bill Clinton pardoned.

Larry Kuca: Madison real estate agent (multiple loan fraud)

Robert W. Palmer: Madison appraiser (conspiracy). Bill Clinton pardoned.

John Latham: Madison Bank CEO (bank fraud)

Eugene Fitzhugh: Whitewater defendant (multiple bribery)

Charles Matthews: Whitewater defendant (bribery)

Ultimately the Clintons were never charged, but 15 other persons were convicted of more than 40 crimes, including Bill Clinton’s successor as Governor, who was removed from office.[40]

Clinton’s “impressive resume” appears to be a DNC talking point that their “media” is regurgitating a lot lately. They need to bring up her “impressive” Benghazi body count.

[Opinionated Blowhard]

They shouldn’t boo. I mean, Al Capone and Bernie Madoff had impressive resumes too.

Hillary and the [original 1960s] Black Panthers: The Real Story

Legaled.com ^ | Aug 19, 2003 | Richard Poe

I can't take it anymore. If one more person sends me that e-mail about Hillary and the Black Panthers, I'll have to be dragged away screaming in a straitjacket.

You know the e-mail I'm talking about. It accuses Hillary of helping the Black Panthers get away with torture and murder during the early 1970s. With the 2004 presidential race drawing near, the spam mills are creaking to life, flooding the Internet once more with this agitprop classic.

Unfortunately, the e-mail mingles good information with bad, sowing more confusion than enlightenment. Some versions, for instance, carry the byline of radio talk jock Paul Harvey, who says he did not write it. Such misrepresentations help Hillary defenders dismiss the e-mail as a hoax.

The story is no hoax, though. Its basic elements can be found in respected Hillary biographies and exposes such as Barbara Olson's "Hell to Pay," David Brock's "The Seduction of Hillary Rodham," Joyce Milton's "The First Partner" and Carl Limbacher's "Hillary's Scheme."

Here are the facts:

In May 1969, fishermen discovered the body of Black Panther Alex Rackley floating in Connecticut's Coginchaug River. Rackley's captors had clubbed him, burned him with cigarettes, scalded him with boiling water and stabbed him with an ice pick before finally shooting him in the head.

New Haven detectives learned that the Panthers suspected Rackley of being a police informer. Panther enforcers had tied him to a chair and tortured him for hours. Police arrested eight Panthers and later extradited Panther leader Bobby Seale from California, after a witness accused Seale of ordering Rackley's death. (1)

Campus radicals supported the Panthers. They organized mass protests in support of the so-called "New Haven Nine." Hillary was right in the thick of it.

By the time she entered Yale Law School in 1969, Hillary was already a radical celebrity on campus. Life magazine had featured Hillary in a piece titled, "The Class of '69," which showcased three student activists whom Life's editors deemed the best and brightest of the year. A line Hillary used in her Wellesley College commencement speech appeared under her photo: "Protest is an attempt to forge an identity." (2)

At Yale, Hillary helped edit the Yale Review of Law and Social Action – a left-wing journal which promoted cop-killing and featured cartoons of pig-faced police. (3)

A series of hard-Left mentors introduced Hillary to the brass-knuckle realities of revolutionary activism. As a Wellesley undergraduate, she met and interviewed radical organizer Saul Alinsky, whose Machiavellian tactics she admired. Hillary's senior thesis supported Alinsky's call for class warfare. (4)

At Yale, Hillary found a new Svengali in the form of left-wing law professor Thomas Emerson, known around campus as "Tommy the Commie." Emerson recruited Hillary and other students to help monitor the trial of the New Haven Nine for civil rights violations. Hillary took charge of the operation, scheduling the students in shifts, so that student monitors would always be present in the courtroom. She befriended and worked closely with Panther lawyer Charles Garry. (5)

Some believe that the enormous pressure exerted by the Left helped ensure light sentences for the New Haven Nine. Whether or not this is true, the punishments were mild.

"Only one of the killers was still in prison in 1977," reports John McCaslin in the Washington Times. "The gunman, Warren Kimbro, got a Harvard scholarship and became an assistant dean at Eastern Connecticut State College. Ericka Huggins, who boiled the water for Mr. Rackley's torture, got elected to a California school board." (6)

Hillary's defenders argue that she played no "significant" role in the New Haven Nine's defense. This is semantic hairsplitting. Obviously, Hillary was less "significant" than Charles Garry or "Tommy the Commie" Emerson. But Hillary served as a trusted lieutenant to these movers and shakers. Moreover, she had a national profile as a campus activist. Hillary was no rank-and-file student protester, as her apologists claim.

Indeed, Hillary's work for the Panthers won her a summer internship at the Berkeley office of attorney Robert Treuhaft in 1972. A hardline Stalinist, Treuhaft had quit the Communist Party in 1958 only because it was losing members and no longer provided a good platform for his activism. (7) "Treuhaft is a man who dedicated his entire legal career to advancing the agenda of the Soviet Communist Party and the KGB," notes historian Stephen Schwartz. (8)

The defense of the New Haven Nine marked Hillary's initiation into the sinister underworld of the hard-core, revolutionary Left. To my knowledge, Hillary has never publicly renounced nor apologized for her role in that movement.

Clinton has spent "more time in government than almost all of you on stage tonight."

Yeah, and how has that worked out for us?

Sadly, Chris Stevens, Glen Doherty, Tryone Woods and Sean Smith were not available for comment.

[rrrod]

Gutterwhore alert

[wetgundog]

“...Clinton has spent “more time in government than almost all of you on stage tonight.”
So what? What does she have to show for all that?

A Lot of DEAD BODIES.

[Califreak]

I liked last night’s debate. When I saw Cavuto, I thought at least they’ll be halfway reasonable. They still asked tough questions, but I don’t believe any of them were complete aholes about it.

[tioga]

While listening to Maria’s recount of Hillary’s resume she listed being First Lady. That is not valid at all.....heck, I give a good party and am a good hostess....I can be diplomatic while doing so.......does that make me presidential in any way? Then she mentioned her time as Senator, where she actually just put in her time. What bills did she make in to law? She had no agenda and accomplished little, just adding the “years served” to her resume. Then we get to her time as Secretary of State....she oversaw the disaster that is Obama’s Mideast policy....and who thinks that is a success? It’s laughable. Benghazi?

[ETL]

Clinton has spent “more time in government than almost all of you on stage tonight.”

And soon, if all goes right, she will have spent more time in prison than all of them.

[Dr. Sivana]

Six years as US Senator and four years as Sec of State - 10 years. Period.

More like eight years as Senator (2011-2009) and five+ years as SoS (2009-2014). But then, we have to think of Rubio's years in the State Legislature and Cruz' as Solicitor General. Christie spent lots of time in office as well. Even John Ellis Bush has more executive time in, and Kasich has done a lot of everything. Carson, Fiorina and Trump are running BECAUSE they haven't the taint of Washington. At least Trump and Carson have shown the ability to excel, FAR more impressive resumes. The "moderator" is full of it.

[relictele]

The moderator pointed out that Clinton has spent "more time in government than almost all of you on stage tonight."

So have Barney Fife and my trash collector.

[FlingWingFlyer]

Barack Hussein Obama is living proof that an "impressive resume" doesn't mean anything if you want to be president. He didn't have one and got elected TWICE proving anyone can do the job according to the low info voters.

[sheana]

You came up with the perfect answer. Good job!

Well I don’t know about an ‘impressive’ resume but she did have an ‘impressive’ body count in Benghazi.

I can hear the howls now. lol

[1Old Pro]

The moderator pointed out that Clinton has spent "more time in government than almost all of you on stage tonight."

As long as the sentence was said "disgustingly" then the statement stands on it's own.
