The Clinton Curse Returns
The Washington Times ^ | 2-2-16 | R. Emmett Tyrrell, Jr.

Posted on 02/03/2016 3:24:34 AM PST by afraidfortherepublic

In the many decades I have had the pleasure of covering the Clintons I have developed several themes about them that have over the years been validated by fact. One theme is that there is a Clinton Curse.

It afflicts many who come into contact with the fabulous couple. In the early days, the Curse brought down the McDougals, Webb Hubbell, Vince Foster and former Gov. Jim Guy Tucker, all of them by now figures known only to history. More recently it was Jeffrey Epstein, the child molester and Bill’s pal and fellow epicurean. Now quite possibly, Josh Earnest, press secretary to President Obama, will be added to the list along with Hillary’s aides, Huma Abedin, Cheryl Mills, Bryan Pagliano and Jake Sullivan. Possibly even David Brock will suffer the Clinton Curse. The Clintons are a couple to be avoided. Even the Democratic Party might not be spared come Election Day 2016.

Of course, the Clintons often turn to their favor circumstances that might spell doom to others. Consider the present imbroglio involving Hillary, her mysterious personal server, the FBI, and the aforementioned Clintonistas: Ms. Abedin, Ms. Mills, Mr. Pagliano and Mr. Sullivan. Many people whom I talk to tell me the FBI’s interest in that personal server is ominous for Hillary, a matter I wrote about in this column three weeks ago. Yet this imbroglio when viewed from the Clintons’ perspective might actually be helping them in their quest for the presidency.

The FBI’s investigation is finding so much additional evidence of wrongdoing by the Clintons and their Clintonistas that the copious evidence is actually impeding the bureau from recommending indictments. No sooner does the bureau think it has wrapped up one set of indictments than it trips across another category of malfeasance. For instance, it seems that the...

Perhaps so, but to no avail -- She Who Must Not Be Named will not be denied. She'll skate. The fix has been in for many months.

Any week now I expect them to discover Bernie in his bathrobe with an "apparent stroke".

The Times site is unreadable on a cell phone, ads, pop ups, refreshes. At least on my phone it is.

Sorry about that. It’s nearly unreadable on a desktop computer, as well, to say nothing of trying to post from there. I made several attempts, and was shut down at least once. But, the article is a delight to read, nevertheless.

Hillary should hold her rallies at hockey rinks, since she is so good at ‘skating’.

As witty as he is, Tyrrell does not understand that so many American citizens truly believe that a Clinton is all they need to return to “happiness”.

I don’t think that’s the case at all. She’s a faded old hag who would never be considered a credible candidate without her massive fundraising machine to shake down corporate interests all over the globe.

He has a very good point about Josh Earnest commenting on communications between the WH & DoJ or FBI. Seems VERY irregular.

“The Times site is unreadable”. Second that! So glad much of the text was posted.

But unless there are a few dozen investigators at the FBI who stand for the truth over their jobs, it’s over.

The Clinton Curse Returns

"The Curse of the Clintons Returns".

I hate Bernie, but I wish he'd drive a stake through the Beast so we could be rid of them forever!

My desktop won’t even open it. Long scripts and popups out the wazoo.
