He was trying to smuggle the ark out of prison? So that’s where it’s been all these years...

Clinton loved prisoners so much he twice re-opened the blood ‘clinic’ after it was closed down, so prisoners had the right to sell their blood for cigarettes and it ended up going to a blood broker in Montreal.

All other prisons had stopped taking prison blood because of AIDS and Hepatitis C. No other country in the world would take the blood, but Canada because of a loophole.

Blood trade was a very lucrative business and for some reason Clinton didn’t want to stop the flow of tainted blood. It was distributed from Thomas Hecht in Montreal to the world ... spreading AIDS and Hep C not just in Canada, but all over the world.

Thousands died from this blood. Thanks to Arkansas Govenor Bill Clinton.

Questions that a good reporter should have asked:

Whom was she signing in to visit? Does that inmate have any history of holding/trading in contraband? A drug record? Any incidents of weapons use in prison? What is that inmate’s previous relationship with Wright — family, political, personal? Does that inmate have or perform tattoos?

Does the prison vending machine sell that flavor of Doritos in that size package? Are the deliveries of vendors to that machine X-rayed or metal detected before those snacks are admitted to the prison? How was the Doritos bag resealed after the contraband was inserted? Tape, glue, heat-seal?

Exactly how large is a tattoo needle that 44 of them can fit in a snack sized bag? Would they have a dual use as drug delivery needles? Would they weigh enough that someone handling the package should notice the difeference in weight?

Is the area where the bag was supposedly found under video surveillance? If not, why not? If so, is there any vindicating video of another visitor ditching the Doritos bag?

Do prison visitors get the same questioning I get at the airport: “Did You pack your bags yourself? Are you carrying any objects from third parties or strangers? Are you carrying any of the following prohibited items... ?”

She should have hid that stuff in her pants like Sandy Burglar.

For a moment, I thought that was a young Bill Clinton.

It’s not her. She was an older black woman.

Is this the same Betsy Wright that worked for Hillary to control the women claiming they were nuts and sluts?


Bingo - I finally placed this name - it was the model from
a character in Primary Colors. Also I think it’s “Betsey Wright”. The character may be Libby Hoffman or Libby Holden depending on which website you read.

The pivotal character is Libby Hoffman, said to be modelled on Clinton’s longtime Arkansas aide, Betsy Wright. Like Miss Wright, Libby is the person the candidate relies on to minimize the damage whenever the tabloids are after him. As pictured here, she is a lesbian and an expatriate from the local booby hatch. Miss Wright may want to consider suing if she can ever figure out who Anonymous really is.

For that one crime alone he should rot in hell. Imagine all the people that this one crime murdered. He has a lot of so-called accidents on his conscience (well, if he had one, that is).

Interesting - apparently this isn’t the first rodeo for ol’ Betsey - from her Wikipedia entry.


Wright is a supporter of the feminist movement, a prisoners’ rights advocate, and strongly opposes capital punishment.[31][32][33] She often visits inmates on Arkansas’ death row at the Varner Unit, a high-security prison located near Grady.[34]
While visiting a death row inmate in 2005, Wright was accused of trying to smuggle money into the prison. After the incident, Wright lost visitation privileges for six months.[35] In August 2009, the Arkansas State’s Attorney’s office filed 51 felony charges against Wright, accusing her of attempting to smuggle a knife, tweezers, a boxcutter, and 48 tattoo needles into the Varner Unit on May 22.[36][37] During an interview with the Associated Press, Wright denied any wrongdoing.[38]

Every time I scroll past this topic I think it says “snuggling,” which would be interesting, to say the least.
