EXCLUSIVE: Read the Secret Emails of the Men Who May Run Hillary Clinton's Campaign
ABC News ^ | 11/14/14 | Rick Klein

Posted on 11/14/2014 2:18:10 PM PST by Libloather

For the past five years, a prominent Democratic operative who is a leading contender to manage a Hillary Clinton presidential campaign has maintained a private email listserv for friends and associates that carries a provocative name: the “Mook Mafia.”

The listserv, which one member said reaches more than 150 fellow campaign veterans, has been a means for Robby Mook and a close friend Marlon Marshall to stay connected with many of the operatives who would likely populate a Democratic presidential campaign in 2016. Mook and Marshall have both been mentioned as possible Hillary Clinton campaign managers.

Copies of a cache of the emails obtained by ABC News, and revealed publicly for the first time, show Mook and Marshall demonstrating an aggressive tone in rallying their friends behind political causes, in exchanges that are often self-mocking and sometimes border on being profane.

They include rallying cries to, in Mook’s words, “smite Republicans mafia-style,” and, to quote Marshall, “punish those voters.” Mook sometimes calls himself “Deacon” in the emails, while Marshall, now a senior White House aide, refers to himself as “Reverend” in many of the exchanges.

Not exactly breaking news.

Why would any sane person have voted for Obama in 2012?

2008 can be explained based on ignorance, stupidity and lamestream media fraud. After four years of Obamanation, 2012 can only be explained based on mental illness.

It depends on how many fraudulent votes they can muster up from now until then. I expect the dead voters to come out in droves and well over 100% turnout in most inner cities.

Nothing these democrats do is ever on the level.

They include rallying cries to, in Mook’s words, “smite Republicans mafia-style..."

For those who recall Vince Foster, Ron Brown, and a host of others in "The Clinton Body Count," any mention of "mafia-style" by a Clinton operative should not be treated cavalierly, as WJC himself seems to do with his "Mafia bridge to the 21st century" remark.

Not surprisingly, the MSM writers of the posted article wouldn't touch that connection with the proverbial ten-foot pole. That would be the taboo of all taboos.

Fellow FReepers, please be aware!

GRUBER'S HATE-A THON BEGAN WITH HILLARYCARE

SOURCE Health Reforms May Hurt Uninsured - Study analyzes hospitals in California
THE SAN FRANCISCO CHRONICLE - Saturday, January 30, 1993
Author: Jonathan Marshall, Chronicle Staff Writer

Health care reforms under consideration by the Bill Clinton administration could backfire against uninsured patients, a new study of California hospitals suggests. A move in California in the 1980s to control the upward spiral of medical costs by encouraging price competition produced discounts of nearly 5 percent for paying patients, according to an analysis released by the National Bureau of Economic Research, an academic clearinghouse in Cambridge, Mass.

Price competition is a key element in ``managed competition’’ and ``managed care’’ scenarios being reviewed by a White House task force led by (a very ambitious First Lady) Hillary Clinton.

At the same time, however, the move to competition also slashed the amount of uncompensated care 36 percent from its expected value.

``The bottom line I want to push is that if you lower the price of care, it may . . . not be unambiguously good if it means kicking out the uninsured,’’ said Jonathan Gruber, a Massachusetts Institute of Technology economist who authored the study. (snip) (no link)

Are you saying all democrats are scum like Gruber, Lieawitha, Hillary the IRS? Or that it’s OK to be thugs?

Is it OK for our side to do the same?
