Everyone needs to know how helpful sharktrager has been in the efforts to keep Hillary out of the White House. He has worked at it tirelessly for several years without ever complaining. He is not like some other whiners who just sit on their butts and make wisecracks when others are making the effort. No sir, he is someone whom you would want in your foxhole. You can always count on him. Come on, sharktrager, stand up and be recognized. We want to all raise our glasses and give you a big salute.

Unlike some who don't get it, sharktrager realizes that a hitpiece on a whistleblower and puff piece on Hillary can be just as important as a real investigative report. It gives us the opportunity to answer. Dan Rather's phony national guard story gave us the opportunity to not only stop that story but to send Danny Boy packing.

While Tom Delay is twisting in the wind, the GOP now has some ammunition that it can use. Sharktrager, a brilliant political analyst, knows well that probably not even 10% of GOP congressmen and senators knew much about or paid attention to Hillary's FEC fraud. It has now appeared in the WASHINGTON POST. Maybe some of them are going to want to no more. Maybe more citizens are going to be calling the office of the U.S. attorney and demanding that they investigate this fraud.

Don't be shy, sharktrager, stand up and take a bow. Way to go.

Doug,

Thanks a lot for the post. For someone living on the other side of the waters, with a media that delivers even less real news than the US MSM, the FreeRepublic is a breath of fresh air. And the digging that you and others do makes it into a real treat to read.

Of course the WasPo article was (or tried to be) a whitewash of the Clintons. However, what you an almost everyone else on this thread (except Yellow Rose of Texas) seems to miss is that even if one reads the article uncritically the one thing that strikes one is the sleaze.

To quote YRT "did the Clintons [ever] do business with anyone who was/is not a criminal?"

What this article does (maybe unintentionally) is to remind people of the criminality, scandals and downright sleaze that always have sorrounded the Clintons. Even if HRC once again is able to skate from a federal crime charge just to remind people of her dirty past is probably enough to hurt her badly in upcoming Dim primaries (pace Southack).

When I read this story I couldn't help thinking about the queen's necklace (Marie Antoinette) or the sleaze surrounding the last tsar (Rasputin etc). In the end it was the scandals that undercut the popularity of those royals and was an underlying factor in their untimely demise.

Hopefully these last scandals will finally bring the Clintons' political ambitions to an end.

Good luck with giving this story some real legs.

Regards,

ScaniaBoy

Doug, for years you have been posting about your interviews and your oh so witty parodies, not because of your beliefs but because you love the attention and accolades from other Freepers.

But all of these stories have yet to accomplish anything. Repeatedly we are told that there will be a major expose, broken by you, and when the stories come out, they are flops. You continue to provide your data to sources you know are not going to report in any way that is damaging to the left. It has happened enough that I sincerely believe you do it not for the cause but because you adore the attention.

What has happened yet again is that the only places the truth was reported will be minor internet outlets that are viewed as unreliable and biased. Meanwhile, yet again, the information is in the hands of people who will use it not to shine the light of truth, but to be best prepared to minimize it's impact.
