Clintons escape in a FLASH!

Clinton Culture                    “ Bill and Hillary Clinton are 'livid' at comparisons to Weiners' sexcapades and forgiveness Bill and Hillary Clinton are angry with efforts by mayoral hopeful Anthony Weiner and his campaign to compare his Internet sexcapades — and his wife Huma Abedin’s incredible forgiveness — to the Clintons’ notorious White House saga, The Post has learned. “The Clintons are upset with the comparisons that the Weiners seem to be encouraging — that Huma is ‘standing by her man’ the way Hillary did with Bill, which is not what she in fact did,’’ said a top state Democrat. ” "I can't believe they made me put out my cigar"said Bill, still fuming.

The result is Clinton's best ever, dating back to right before his inauguration in 1993.

FHA Bankrupt

WHAT GUMMINT DOES

“ Thank You Barney, et al Why does FHA Mortgage Insurance exist? Unlike conventional loans that adhere to strict underwriting guidelines, FHA-insured loans require very little cash investment to close a loan. There is more flexibility in calculating household income and payment ratios. The cost of the mortgage insurance is passed along to the homeowner and typically is included in the monthly payment. In most cases, the insurance cost to the homeowner will drop off after five years or when the remaining balance on the loan is 78 percent of the value of the property -whichever is longer. How is FHA funded? FHA is the only government agency that operates entirely from its self-generated income and costs the taxpayers nothing. The proceeds from the mortgage insurance paid by the homeowners are captured in an account that is used to operate the program entirely. FHA provides a huge economic stimulation to the country in the form of home and community development, which trickles down to local communities in the form of jobs, building suppliers, tax bases, schools, and other forms of revenue. [FHA] In the wayback, when the newly married us were buying our first home,  my dad jokingly offered that the FHA insurance fee was something of a gummint money making scam.  The default rate on FHA loans (going back to 1933) was so low that administration fees alone  cost more than any payout.  Of course that was long before  Bill Clinton, Barney Frank, and  Chris Dodd  became  the nation's banking engineers. Fast forward. “ For the first time in its 78-year history, the 100 percent taxpayer-backed Federal Housing Administration is projected to run out of its remaining $4.7 billion financial reserves and trigger an infusion of funds from the Treasury. ”   ”

Clinton's Woman Problem

PBS documentary looks at Bill Clinton's 'womanizing'

“ There was this growing skepticism in the press that this guy was just a big phony,”  Time’s Joe Klein said, discussing Clinton’s reaction to the allegations. “He was too slick. He was too smooth. And he would lawyer answers to questions. [Full] Too cute by half.  I've had Joe Klein stuck in my craw for, oh,  say 20 years.  He was a ground zero media wake-up call for me.  I realized the media are for sale— cheap,  to the closest leftist ideologue.  *spits*  Maybe Joe's dying of cancer and wants to make amends with this belated epiphany. Who knows? Or cares. The Clinton mafia are not quite as good as the Kennedy's at  hounding book and television editors into submission, when the Camelot fantasy is threated,  but they are pretty damned effective  in a thuggish way.  Maybe it's because so many harbor doubts about the truthfulness of those, er, stories. I fully expect the Clintons to use the same tactics employed when ABC's The Path to 9-11 was scheduled to run.    Maybe they'll have Sandy Berger steal the film negative.  We'll know how dedicated PBS is to truth-telling if  his rape of 19 year-old Eileen Wellstone  near Oxford University in 1969  is covered.  Don't hold your breath.  ”

Culture Fraud

The tee-shirt buying public have been taught that Bill Clinton was a great president.  Whom conservatives tried, and failed, to impeach for getting head from some chippie.  Here's how THE HILL announced that Barney Frank would retire. "Frank, 71, is the top Democrat on the Financial Services Committee and the architect, with former Sen. Chris Dodd (D-Conn.), of the sweeping Wall Street regulatory reform law enacted in 2010." Nothing about the three of them acting in concert to force bankers into loan practices that toppled the world economy.  Literally.  Clinton, Dodd, Frank. The three most vile people in government over the past quarter century. Miss Them?  Hell, If it wun't against the law, never. ” Unplugged

Boo F'n Hoo- Clinton not getting enough "credit"

What?  Impeachment wasn't enough? I WANT MORE CREDIT...

After signing the welfare bill (1996 Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act) Clinton almost immediately boarded the campaign train which would take him to the Democrat National Convention.    He promised from the train's platform at various stops,  that if reelected he would revoke this onerous welfare bill. “ .“I go crazy every time I read the conventional wisdom,” he said Friday night at his presidential library in Little Rock, Ark. “So part of the Republican narrative is that I was ‘saved’ from myself by the election of the Republican Congress [in 1994] that ‘forced me’ to do welfare reform and ‘made the balanced budget possible.’” Clinton said reporters and commentators “keep saying this, overlooking all relevant facts.”  At the federal level, he said 43 states received federal waivers to implement welfare reform before the GOP-controlled House passed the final bill. “And yet I kept reading how this was ‘a Republican idea,’ just because President Reagan had a good story about a welfare queen and a Cadillac who didn’t exist,” Clinton said. [Clinton sick and tirered of not getting the credit he deserves] ” The Clinton economy was in fact moribund until the newly elected Republican congressional majority enacted several tax cutting bills, look it up.  Here's a rough time line of "his welfare reform" performance. Promised during the 1992 campaign  to "end welfare as we know it." Takes office in Jan 1993 Never mentions welfare reform. Republicans take control of congress in 1995 Clinton  vetoes two similar welfare reform bills Adviser Dick Morris advises him to sign the third one Immediately vows to roll it back. Here's something I found very interesting.  Scan this 1996 AP article  Provisions of the 1996 Welfare Bill.   How many of the provisions are observed today?  What happened?

The Path to 9/11

There's History, and Their History I'm being asked this on the FOX network. ABC just had a right- wing conservative run in their little "Pathway to 9/11," falsely claiming it was based on the 9/11 Commission report, with three things asserted against me directly contradicted by the 9/11 Commission report. [Bill Clinton on Fox News Sunday, September 26, 2006]

Clintons were able to force ABC to Delete THIS Scene from 'The Path to 9/11,' “ TheDC's Matthew Boyle reports: "Activists tell The Daily Caller that The Walt Disney Company is refusing to re-air a 9/11-related docudrama, effectively burying politically inconvenient facts about the events which led to the 9/11 terror attacks, in order to protect the political future of Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. 'The Path to 9/11,' first aired on ABC in 2006, portrayed President Bill Clinton's administration as ignoring warnings and signs that Osama bin Laden and al Qaida were planning a major attack on the United States — a finding supported by The 9/11 Commission Report. But since 2006 Disney CEO Bob Iger has repeatedly refused to rebroadcast it, or to sell the rights to other broadcasters...  'The Path to 9/11' was nominated for seven Emmy awards, and won one. It also received an American Cinema Editors 'Eddie' award. But the film, which cost $40 million to make, has not aired in the U.S. since, nor has it been released on DVD... ” Of course it was spot-on accurate which is why Sen. Hillary put Jamie Gorelick on the 9-11 Commission (to sidetrack the investigation) and why Sandy Berger stole files that incriminated them.  And why Bill Clinton went nuts trying to stop the airing of 'The Path to 9/11' Below are two clips from the film "Blocking the Path to 9/11" which can be rented at NetFlix. The second clip supposes that the left finally got disgusted with the Clintons over this,  and turned to Obama.  Now that Barry  hasn't quite worked out for them, the screeching sound you hear is the left throwing themselves into reverse.  It will be fun to resurrect all the quotes from 2008 when the left media  slammed Hillary as a dishonest liar.  Start looking for them now before they're all flushed.

But Clinton paid down the debt!

But he paid down the debt President Clinton's “Lock Box” March 06, 2000

“ Once again, Bill Clinton is trying to outdo Congress in protecting Social Security. Two years ago, he challenged the Congress to save 60 percent of the surplus for Social Security. In this year’s budget, Clinton is proposing a "Social Security solvency lock-box" that is intended to secure every dollar of the Social Security surplus for Social Security. While this plan may conjure up images of stacks of cash waiting in Fort Knox for the Baby Boomers to retire, the reality is that his plan leaves the vault empty when the program begins to run large cash deficits in just 14 years. There is only one place to put the Social Security surplus - in the Personal Retirement Accounts of hard working Americans Clinton’s lock-box plan is nothing more than a scheme to use more than $3 trillion in Social Security surpluses to buy down federal debt. In exchange, the Social Security trust fund gets another $3 trillion worth of IOUs. To be sure, most Americans would rather pay down the debt than use Social Security’s surpluses to fund pork barrel projects. But make no mistake, once that money is spent – to buy down debt or fund new programs – it will not be there to cover Social Security’s long-term liabilities.  [Full] ” OMFG.  If only the nation had been warned. But wait. We were.  But by the vicious right-wing extremist machine, so it didn't count.

Clinton Unzipped: One of the Worst Presidents Ever

Clinton Unzipped: One of the Worst Presidents Ever

“” Conventional [media created] wisdom has it that Bill Clinton was a flawed man, but a good president.  Let's blast that claptrap to smithereens with a Fast and Furious AK-47, because Bill Clinton was an unadorned calamity for our national security, and, in all probability, remains one to this day. In the last week, we learned some piquant facts about Clinton's associates: First, his wife's most intimate aide, Huma Abedin, has a Saudi mother and brother who are both prominent members of the Muslim Brotherhood. Glamour girl Abedin accesses our most sensitive national secrets through her longtime, joined-at-the-hip relationship with Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.  This jihadist penetration into our government's innermost sanctums is A-OK with Bill Clinton, who risibly presided over Abedin's wedding to proud pervert Anthony Weiner. And there's so  much more in this American Thinker piece, like Clinton's former chief of staff, CIA chief Leon Panetta, who we now discover may be hiding a colorful past of Communist entanglements .. and on, and on.

The Snarlers

The Brit's take on Jon Stewart's Fox appearance 'You are insane!' The moment comedian Jon Stewart lost his cool with Fox News host Chris Wallace The Snarler's

File this with my earlier [Send in the Clown] post. That Stewart snarl reminds me of  Bill Clinton braving an appearance with Chris Wallace (Sept 26, 2006). I have a feeling both were double-dog dared. Or, maybe they just wanted to show-off their talent by whipping a right-wing hit-man in his own ballpark?  Things start to heat up at about the 4 minute mark in this video' We have then two men, both accomplished actors, noted for a mesmerizing speaking delivery and rapier wit.  Both comfortable in their ability to think on their feet; and, I posit, looking forward to full victory props from lesser abled, adoring nutroots.  Alas, both are reduced to snarling, angry boys; frustrated by their inability to hit a change-up.  It's why Democrats boycotted (boycotted!) scheduled debates hosted by Fox.  Years and years of being coddled —  having every pitch telegraphed by sycophantic media pitchers —  have left Democrats soft, flabby,  and slow.  It's a good thing daddy owns the media playing field, because these poseurs, who can't hit a curve ball, would not otherwise be playing in the Big Show. From the transcript: CLINTON: But at least I tried. That's the difference in me and some, including all the right-wingers who are attacking me now. They ridiculed me for trying. They had eight months to try. They did not try. I tried. So I tried and failed. When I failed, I left a comprehensive anti-terror strategy and the best guy in the country, Dick Clarke, who got demoted. So you did Fox's bidding on this show. You did your nice little conservative hit job on me. What I want to know is ... WALLACE: Well, wait a minute, sir. CLINTON: No, wait. No, no ... WALLACE: I want to ask a question. You don't think that's a legitimate question? CLINTON: It was a perfectly legitimate question, but I want to know how many people in the Bush administration you asked this question of. I want to know how many people in the Bush administration you asked, "Why didn't you do anything about the Cole?" I want to know how many you asked, "Why did you fire Dick Clarke?" I want to know how many people you asked ... WALLACE: We asked — we asked ... CLINTON: I don't ... WALLACE: Do you ever watch "FOX News Sunday," sir? CLINTON: I don't believe you asked them that. WALLACE: We ask plenty of questions of ... CLINTON: You didn't ask that, did you? Tell the truth, Chris. WALLACE: About the USS Cole? CLINTON: Tell the truth, Chris.

Pedo Bill

Teenage girl recruited by paedophile Jeffrey Epstein reveals how she twice met Bill Clinton

Reader Chris wrote me "This story has been covered in America left and right, but not a single story I saw mentioned this part..."  Aside from fitting perfectly with everything we know about this sleazy man, it triggered this thought.  Nobody covered Bill Clinton's early presidency and Arkansas connections more thoroughly than London Telegraph reporter Ambrose Evans-Pritchard.   Jane Parks, wife of the murdered Luther Jerry Parks (more here on that) was the property manager for the apartment building where Bill's brother Roger Clinton lived.  Her office was next to his, and she had the hall covered by a surveillance camera (incidental to Roger living next door). Hmmm. Doesn't look like a boy? “ Jane Parks, who has spoken on the record about the wild parties Roger threw attended by his older brother, the governor. Parks says marijuana and cocaine were the intoxicants of choice and the women came and went at all hours of the day and night. Sometimes the female company was "surprisingly young," according to Parks. Her office shared a wall with Roger's apartment and she was able to hear as well as see quite a lot. ” There is perhaps no greater indictment of Keith Olbermann than his failure to, not even once, name Bill Clinton "The Worst Person in America."  Because he is.

Worst President EVAH?

Carter: We have nothing to fear from the Muslim Brotherhood

“   Clinton [may not be - ed.] the worst president the republic has had, but he is the worst person ever to have been president. - George Will, Jan 12, 2001 ”

A reason academics and historians are having so much trouble settling on which of Carter, Clinton, or Obama is the worst person ever to be president, and come on Mr. Will, by extension the worst president period, is they keep opening their yappers.  Like Carter above. Jummy is also the leading candidate for worst ex-president, although he's being pushed hard by Slick.  Obama is simply evil incarnate.  No, I don't think he's the anti-Christ, but he's certainly an apostle. At the moment I'm going with Clinton as worst president, because without his influence on the body politic  "President Barack Obama" wasn't possible. Carter is almost universally regarded as a bad joke - brother Billy without the fun - so his posturing, like Keith Olbermann's, only serves to keep bloggers busy quoting his preposterous ramblings. . I thought of this while reading Ann Coulter's column last night. DEMOCRATS: EMBOLDENING AMERICA'S ENEMIES AND TERRIFYING HER ALLIES SINCE 1976 “ The Middle East is on fire again, and crazy Muslims with funny names aren't helping things -- Mahmoud, ElBaradei, al-Banna, Barack ... The major new development is that NOW liberals want to get rid of a dictator in the Middle East! Where were they when we were taking out the guy with the rape rooms? Remember? The one who had gassed his own people, invaded his neighbors and was desperately seeking weapons of mass destruction? The guy who emerged from a spider hole looking like Charlie Sheen after a three-day bender? [...] But they were shocked by Mubarak. Liberals angrily cited the high unemployment rate in Egypt as a proof that Mubarak was a beast who must step down. Did they, by any chance, see the January employment numbers for the United States? The only employment sectors showing any growth at all are medical marijuana cashiers, Hollywood sober-living coaches and "Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark" understudies filling in for maimed cast members. Are we one jobs report away from liberals rioting in the street?  [full] Wait:  If Time Magazine can name everyone Man of the Year, then I can name "Any Democrat" Worst President Evah! Whew.  Closure at last.

US Underestimated ... blah-blah-blah

The aircraft is comparable to the U.S. F-22 and would be China’s first stealth plane. The F-22 was defunded by Obama

“ The Pentagon underestimated the speed at which China has developed and fielded a ballistic missile that may be capable of hitting a maneuvering U.S. aircraft carrier, the head of Navy intelligence said today. China's Missile and Stealth Fighter Advances Draw U.S. Attention

This just makes me sick because from the first day of Clinton, when our most sensitive crypto/technology secrets were inexplicably transferred to Ron Brown's Dept. of Commerce, and Charlie Huang's unlimited access into that agency, we could watch it happening.  The PRC's infiltration of our military defense complex makes Stalin's successes under FDR look piddling. And don't think my ears aren't pricked by the Indonesian Riady's (business partners with the PRC) and Obama's Indonesian ties. “ Then, in walks Huang Huang, who speaks five Chinese dialects, with years of on-the job training in Taiwan and Hong Kong, and with a Rolodex of PRC contacts that extended right into the Communist Party Politburo.  Huang's CIA briefers said that Huang had a "sensitivity about things Chinese that you just didn't get even if you're a Chinese scholar a Yale." 10 During Senator Thompson's hearings, a former Stephens secretary testified to the following: Huang walked across the street to the Stephens office two or three times a week carrying a folder or small briefcase. 7 He received overnight packages and faxes at the office. He sent faxes out of the office, used the copier, and made telephone calls from a small office set aside for visitors.38 She did not know Huang's correspondents.  Excerpts from Year of the rat: how Bill Clinton compromised U.S. security for Chinese cash; Chapter 5 "My Man In The American Government" ”

RE Missy Kelly

Will no one rid us of this turbulent priest?

Some of you old Freepers will remember Missy Kelly.  While she didn't post personally, a number of her essays made their way into that forum via moi.  Missy was quite a good writer and a behind the scenes player.  She did a lot of work for some well known WSJ Op-Ed peeps, and would sometimes send letters to the editor.  She hired me to do the morning update headlines on NewsMax, so I guess you could say she was my first lady boss I wasn't married to.  Eventually Missy became consumed by NWO and Third Way conspiracy theory.  She adamantly believed that Bill Clinton would not leave the Oval Office in January, 2000.  I lost touch with her soon after that, but now, a full decade later, I'm thinking that Missy was right all along.
