Sharpton Guest Defends Hillary Private-Jet Travel: 'American Royalty'
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 11/11/2014 5:11:12 PM PST by governsleastgovernsbest

Note to Hillary: hire Chris Witherspoon of theGrio as your presidential campaign spokesman--please! He could help set up a 50-state sweep . . . for the Republican candidate. Appearing on Al Sharpton's MSNBC show this evening, Witherspoon defended Hillary against an RNC email criticizing her for expensive private-jet travel billed to the campaigns of candidates for whom she made appearances.

Witherspoon generated this gem: "they're the Clintons. They're American royalty. I don't want to see them flying on domestic Delta flights in first class. I mean, they were flying on Air Force One for eight years. How do you go from that to not staying on private jets and kind of having like that luxurious travel experience?"

(from the article):" "..they're the Clintons. They're American royalty. "

Spoken by a true squire / knave.
Or maybe not a rev. , maybe just a "fryer" (hold the siracha!)

I just might have to watch The Patriot again tonight and think about my relatives in the American Revolution.

If he doesn’t say nice things about the Massas in the Big House, they boot him into the fields.
Al Sharpton: House Negro. FBI informant. False witness. Court jester for the royal Party of the People.

Nothing is too stupid that some Dim-O-crat has not uttered it... ...or will utter it.

Totally non-sensical stuff that should trigger testing for insanity.
Even the most mindless egalitarian cannot argue that the insane should be in positions of political power adversely affecting hundreds of millions.

Psychopathic narcissistic behavior should be automatic grounds for removal from any office after a public nationally televised analysis of the patient. No amount of concern for individual privacy can justify allowing an insane individual to destroy an entire country.

For the no-information idiots in America, google Benito Mussolini, and Nicolae Ceausescu for an unexpected but useful history lesson on the ultimate fate of insane national leaders...

If these grifters (clintoons and owebamas) are American royalty then it is way past time for a royal flush.

That’s alright sweetie, we’ve got your back.

Dems: Obviously a post focusing on Hillary

Cons: Obviously a post focusing on the the little girl being used by this disgusting ‘queen wanna be’.

Please Rev. Sharpton, please keep President Obama, Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi and even Hillary Clinton on the same track that they are on. Keep them talking about taking over the Internet to turn Off the young. Keep them talking about Obamacare while the promised folk lose the Insurance, Doctors, Hospitals, and even their low premiums. Keep them talking about raising the minimum wage as their centerpiece for economic growth.

Please Please!

President Obama, I am so glad you ignored the mid-term and continue to press for Illegal Alien Amnesty through an Illegal Excutive Order. Please keep it up.

Thanks,

Tea Party sr4402

The more they say that, the more I want to start pulling immigrant-visa applications at the Commonwealth consulates in Southern California. Either that or see what the nunciature in DC will do.

So in late 2009 I get on a Southwest plane, sitting in my normal exit row. Plane is held up a bit waiting for other passengers. No problem, Southwest does that all the time for connecting passengers.

Instead, out my window I see two black evil SUVs pull up. Dudes get out and run up the outside stairway to come in the plane.

Not so big but very buff, looked over the entire plane in 10 seconds. Suit and sunglasses type of guy.

Look out the window and up comes ... Laura Bush?

Yep, fresh into her book tour she boards Southwest with two SS agents and a publicist.

Loud cheers for her, they let her have one side of the first row, second agent sits in row 2 on aisle. Seats have placards asking us to hold them.

Classy, professional but very approachable. Perfect examples of how our political class should act.

Sorry Charlie, Hillary is no where near American royalty just a grifter looking for my money.

And if you all ask nicely, I'll tell you about the time I sat next to Karl Rove - what a wonderful man to talk to ...

Amazing: thanks for posting this. I had assumed that former First Ladies didn’t fly commercial. Good on Laura: what a fine lady.
