Hillary Clinton's Legacy of Scandal
American Thinker ^ | June 15, 2013 | Jeffrey T. Brown

Posted on 06/15/2013 2:35:43 PM PDT by EXCH54FE

Let us not also forget that notwithstanding the scandal-grenades going off all around us, Mrs. Clinton diligently plans her run for the presidency, even while several of those scandals are obviously and entirely her responsibility, exposing the State Department during her tenure as an utter sewer of corruption, cronyism, and fatal incompetence.

For as long as Hillary Clinton has been on the national scene, she has left a path of destruction and wreckage in her wake that is both impressive and terrible to behold. She is a testament to the extent of damage that can be done by one person determined to conquer everything before her in the quest for unlimited power and self-gratification. The only prize left to her in American politics is the presidency, which she has always felt is hers by right. Indeed, she would have attained it were it not for the upstart community organizer, a fellow admirer of Saul Alinsky.

Before accompanying her husband to the White House as our first co-president, Mrs. Clinton was working hard on becoming the person we now know her to be. As with her husband, the goal has always been the attainment of power masquerading as public service.

Do you recall the slime that was Whitewater, in which the Clintons dissembled and lied while their former business partners went to jail? Do you remember Mrs. Clinton earning $100,000 in profit in 1979 on a $1,000 investment over the course of only 9 months in volatile cattle futures, about which she knew nothing, thanks to help from a highly placed Tyson Foods connection? Tyson profited handsomely in Arkansas, with state loans and appointments. Do you recall that while testifying before congressional investigators as first lady, she answered "I don't know" or "I don't remember" 250 times?

As the State Department scandal deepens, and as more people potentially refuse to take the fall for the advancement of an utterly corrupt politician, perhaps our knowledge of Mrs. Clinton will deepen -- as if we really needed to know more to understand who and what she is.

We were regaled with liberal celebrations of the mythical "Greatest Secretary of State" ever, while those paying attention could not identify a single advancement in the image or policies of the United States during her tenure.

Rodham and Nobama are quite skilled at dousing crap with perfume and convincing people it ain't crap.

For as long as Hillary Clinton has been on the national scene, she has left a path of destruction and wreckage in her wake that is both impressive and terrible to behold.

For those who weren't old enough to care or for those who have forgotten, two books that strip away the veneer and show the real Killary.

"Hell to Pay". Television commentator and former congressional investigator Barbara Olson has conducted countless interviews and tapped sources of Washington insiders to reveal the real Hillary Rodham Clinton.

The Final Days. "The Final Days" is the last work of Barbara Olson, tragically killed in the terrorist attacks of September 11. This book reveals what she saw as the Clintons' shocking excesses in their final days of office, focusing on their pardons and plans for the future library.

Ms. Clinton can get plastic surgery. She can lose weight. But nothing can ever change the heinous evil that lives forever in her black heart. Looking back, it was a blessing that she lost to nobama.

Also remember that before she was kicked out of the Watergate investigation against President Nixon, her "legal opinion" was that Nixon should not be allowed a lawyer.

How much were Bill's legal fees?

The more one thinks about it the more curious it
becomes to think of Hillary and Bill being blind
sided by Obama. There are things we will never
know that went on in the Party.

The Clinton presidency took “scandal fatigue” to a new level.

Bill and Hill should be breakin’ rocks at Leavenworth... this assumes a just and lawful world.

That's for sure. And, yet, they both remain popular to the ignorati.
