Hillary's Phony "Shock" At Weinstein Scandal
Front Page ^ | October 12, 2017 | Joseph Klein

Posted on 10/12/2017 8:09:34 AM PDT by detective

Perennial sore loser Hillary Clinton took five days to react to the New York Times story detailing a decades’ long pattern of alleged sexual harassment committed by her long time Hollywood pal and generous donor, Harvey Weinstein. When Hillary did finally say something, her words were delivered via a written statement, not on camera where she has lectured us so frequently about how pervasive sexism and misogyny are in America. The statement on Weinstein’s alleged sexual exploitation and abuse of women issued in Hillary’s name claimed that she was “shocked and appalled by the revelations about Harvey Weinstein.” The statement then added Clinton’s standard bromide: “The behavior described by women coming forward cannot be tolerated. Their courage and the support of others is critical in helping to stop this kind of behavior.”

Too bad Hillary did not provide such support herself, when she had the chance, to the victims of her husband Bill’s sexual predatory behavior. And where was she all these years as rumors swirled regarding Weinstein’s abysmal treatment of women?  Hillary’s expression of “shock” is reminiscent of the famous scene in the movie classic Casablanca. Claude Rains, playing the role of Captain Louis Renault who was the Vichy police officer in charge in wartime Casablanca, closed Rick’s Café after exclaiming, “I am shocked -- shocked! -- to find that gambling is going on in here!” Renault, who was thoroughly corrupt, made sure he received his winnings from the croupier as he finished expressing his “shock” over gambling on the premises.

>>>Clinton supposedly knew nothing of Weinstein’s assaults on vulnerable woman.<<<

Right. If only she had known soon enough, she could have had her team jump in to control these “bimbo eruptions,” and none of this embarrassment would be happening.

In fact, a lot of the contributions to the Democratic Party was done through Harvey Weinstein. The only other one in the entertainment with that much ability to “bundle” money to the Democrats is Haim Saban of Saban Productions, but he’s far more respected.

Right.

I don’t want to imagine what that old hag looks like without all her make up on. Especially with a hangover.

LOL. But Hillary never wore a skirt. Maybe she was the only person ever to rape Weinstein!
