There are some politicians for whom no bandwagon is too crazy or extremist for them to jump on it, read the prepared lines from some lackey and then move onto the next “cause”.
Watching from Scotland I’ve been amazed how easily she has been torpedoed by the republicans. They used to say that mud never stuck to her husband – but for Hilary it seems to be like some heat seeking missile that just follows her.
After the email scandal where she was caught using a private computer to bypass public disclosure laws, we now have this:
Hillary Clinton Launches Global Warming Push, Then hours later gets caught on video boarding private jet
The plane reportedly burns 347 gallons of jet fuel per hour, costing nearly $6,000 per hour to rent.
“Despite her campaign’s best efforts to rebrand her as a down-to-earth fighter for ‘everyday Americans,’ Hillary Clinton’s jet-setting ways are just further confirmation that she’s out of touch with the American people,” America Uprising communications driector Jeff Bechdel told the Mail Online
But like all the gullibles who still believe this global warming non-science, her brain is not connected to reality. She just doesn’t get it that if tell people you must “stop using carbon”, it not only applies to others but it equally applies to her. She really doesn’t seem to get it that if you jump on the bandwagon with the climate zealots, there is no ifs or buts, that not only the ordinary people she expects to vote for her insane policies but also she personally cannot fly, cannot drive, cannot heat their homes, cannot power their factories, cannot … almost everything modern society has to offered uses fossil fuels from fertilisers to clothing.
That’s the problem with the gullibles. They just don’t connect the words they mouth from the bandwagoneering script with their own actions. They really do seem to treat life as one enormous act – where they go on stage, utter their lines and then totally ignore their own words afterwards.
They just won’t connect the dots, they don’t get the simple fact that the words they utter about “not using fossil fuel” would apply to them personally as much as it would to everyone else.
In short Clinton is a hypocritical climate nutter with no morality or discrimination who seems willing to jump on any bandwagon if she thinks it would get her elected.
And she appears to have violated criminal law, now being investigated, when as a government official (Secretary of State) she did not use the Government email system and instead used a server running in the basement of her home. She has admitted to have deleted “more than 30,000 emails”. On that server has been found classified information, with some indication that thousands of emails with classified information will be discovered. She appears to have broken the same law that General Petraeus was convicted of (for a few email). It also appears that prosecution of Mrs. Clinton is uncertain. [It is a story that appears not to have traction in UK media as they appear to like Mrs. Clinton]
From what I’ve read about the emails, there is certainly enough evidence for the police to investigate. As such the proper course would be for an investigation by the police rather than a public discussion.
However, it seems to me that prosecutions in the US only happen when its the “little guy” and/or you are disliked by the political establishment and/or the press have a witch hunt.
As the rule of law is the fundamental basis of a fair society, it is just bonkers for any democrat voter to see her get away without as far as I know even a police investigation where there appears to be strong evidence of guilt.
There is a huge “engine” behind her in government, media, courts, and business to “protect” her. The Clinton’s and their team are very experienced at managing that process. Sigh.
What gets me is that she’s not that good, so the only reason I can see she gets support is that those backing her think that if the voters were gullible enough to vote for one guy because he was “black” they’d vote for clinton because she is a “woman”.
I didn’t like Thatcher but I could see why people voted for her. Our own first minister is a very capable politician and whilst I think her politics sucks, I understand why she has the job – but Clinton, only seems to have been selected because she’s the wrong wife of an ex president and is a woman. Neither of which have any bearing on her credibility for the office – indeed, if she was so gullible as to marry Clinton, then – well it’s no wonder her campaign is being taken over by climate extremists.
I don’t get it either. I do believe she feels “entitled” for many reasons. I also think she made a deal with her husband to “stand by my husband” during the Monica Lewinsky debacle in return for his support for her to become President. I cannot explain the engine behind her. I do see much collusion between the Democratic Party (notice she is the only real candidate) and the Republicans who control the Congress but yet put up no opposition to the current Democrat administration.
We live in interesting times.
OK, I don’t know much about what she says on other issues, but when even green activists are admitting this scam has failed (http://www.ecoequity.org/2015/07/still-losing-after-all-these-years/) you’ve got to question her judgement pushing this failed issue to the top of her agenda.
And it’s clearly not that she personally has any interest or understanding of the issue. So, she’s just being used by climate extremists to push a subject which almost all the rest of the world have gone cold on.
I can see the reason for voting for a politicians that is “slippery” because … let’s be frank, in international discussion a politician that can pull one over the opposition is an asset.
But having a politician who is just stupid, gullible and gets caught so easily being hypocritical. She’ll make the US a laughing stock!
