What Edelman openly espouses and avows is that the “it’s all for the children” mantra will be the slogan to increase ALL WELFARE AND SOCIAL SPENDING. <br /><br />Here’s the truth about that big lie: no money ever goes to children, it all goes to an infinity of programs, and especially “professionals” in the programs. Hillary got her start as exactly one of those kinds of professionals for Edelman’s Children’s Defense Fund.<br /><br />Here’s the proof of the big lie: Answer this, after forty-five years have things improved or gotten worse for the children of America’s underclass. Now answer this, does Hillary Clinton have (own outright) multi-millions of dollars, even more significant does Hillary Clinton have effective control of hundreds of millions of dollars by her controlling positions in foundations and other alleged “charities.” <br /><br />Or to put it into a neat package:<br />Hillary got very rich and powerful, while she was a "professional advocate" for poor children, who at the same time got even poorer and more powerless.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3872239785607728837.post-17805172497781416492015-04-02T18:13:25.859-04:002015-04-02T18:13:25.859-04:00UPDATE: THE “HILLARY CLINTON’S ‘BABY TALK’ IS NOT ...UPDATE: THE “HILLARY CLINTON’S ‘BABY TALK’ IS NOT VERY PRESIDENTIAL” EDITION<br /><br />LOOK WHO’S TALKING — HILLARY CHANNELS HER INNER JOHN TRAVOLTA — OR WOULD THAT BE KIRSTIE ALLEY — “GOO-GOO, GAH-GAH” — “POO-POO, PEE-PEE”<br /><br />ANOTHER INAUTHENTIC HILLARY MOMENT — TRYING TO BUY HER WAY INTO POOR WOMEN’S HEARTS<br /><br />A very matronly grandma Hillary Clinton decided to make an appearance deep in the heart of Brownsville Brooklyn. According to a report in the New York Observer, “... Hillary Clinton was in Brooklyn today, the borough where she’ll reportedly look to headquarter the presidential bid she’s expected to announce any day now. *** But today, Ms. Clinton said, wasn’t for talking about politics. It was for talking about babies. Or rather, talking to babies....” (See “Hillary Clinton Talks Babies, But Not Presidential Bid, in Brooklyn” by Jillian Jorgensen | 4/01/15, NY Observer [http://observer.com/2015/04/hillary-clinton-talks-babies-but-not-presidential-bid-in-brooklyn/]).<br /><br />APPEARANCE IS PART OF HILLARY’S STRATEGY OF “HIDING IN PLAIN SIGHT” — ALONG WITH BUYING HER WAY INTO THE HEARTS OF MINORITIES AND THOSE ILL-EQUIPPED FOR PARENTHOOD<br />The former Secretary of State, U.S. Senator and First Lady—and current front-runner for the Democratic nomination for president in 2016, was with New York City’s first lady, Chirlane McCray, ostensibly to promote a new “Talk to Your Baby” campaign at a school in Brownsville. However, the author of the artilce in the observer pointed out that “... [a]t the close of the event, which did not include questions from the press, NY1 reporter Josh Robin called out to ask if the media might see Ms. Clinton back in Brooklyn soon, perhaps for her headquarters [opening].... ‘All in good time,’ Ms. Clinton said....”<br /><br />Much more was afoot than the obvious Clinton ploy of looking like she is out and about, while she keeps her distance from presidential politics and probing questions about her percolating scandals. The real purpose of the event was to make a big deal out of Hillary Clinton’s bringing some of the likely ill-gotten Clinton Foundation money into a ghetto community to curry the favor of minority mothers. However, a closer look will show that the snake oil that Hillary was peddling is a $1.5 million Clinton Foundation public relations effort involving handbooks, “book bundles” of Chirlane McCrays books, jointly produced with an educational industrial giant and posters.<br /><br />“SING, SING A SONG, MAKE IT LOUD, MAKE IT STRONG...” — BUT PLEASE, DON’T MAKE IT HILLARY<br />Hillary did get one thing right on the day, nobody wants to hear her singing, even though she thinks that she has a good voice.<br /><br />When the talk turned to Chirlane McCray’s recent success with a lullaby, Hillary confessed, <br />“I have to confess, I was quite envious of Chirlane the other day when she burst into song. You know, I love to sing, but nobody wants to hear me sing,” Ms. Clinton said. “We won’t ask you to sing....” Said the MC Deputy Mayor Richard Beury.Galewyn Masseyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09210379476512207622noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3872239785607728837.post-3886741174040363632015-04-02T16:01:52.657-04:002015-04-02T16:01:52.657-04:00Yes and Gale's BSI (his most reliable and trus...Yes and Gale's BSI (his most reliable and trusted one) was present in the same room with Hillary in Brownsville yesterday.

A CAREFUL, SOBER ASSESSMENT ABOUT WHETHER THE CONDUCT THAT [HILLARY CLINTON] HAS ADMITTED TO IS DIRECTLY CONTRARY TO FEDERAL LAW”<br /><br />In an interview with Dana Loesch, the only declared GOP candidate for president — in fact, the only declared candidate for president in the U.S.A., Texas Senator Ted Cruz — strongly suggested what many Americans have long believed, that Hillary Clinton is a criminal.<br /><br />A Colin Campbell report for the Business Insider quotes Ted Cruz, the only declared candidate for president in 2015, as saying the following: "It is long past time for a fair and impartial investigation into what occurred here. Based on what she has admitted publicly, it appears that Secretary Clinton's conduct was in violation of federal law and may have even constituted criminal conduct...." (See “TED CRUZ: Hillary Clinton's mass email deletion could be 'criminal conduct' ” by Colin Campbell, 4/1/15, The Business Insider <br />[http://www.businessinsider.com/ted-cruz-hillary-clinton-apparently-broke-the-law-2015-4]).<br />Campbell’s article went on to say “... Cruz, a former Justice Department lawyer, was reacting to a question from conservative radio host Dana Loesch who said Clinton deleted her emails ‘after they had been subpoenaed.’....”<br /><br />Business Insider also reported on observations that Ted Cruz made about the possible prosecution of Mrs. Clinton. According to Colin Campbell, Cruz isn't optimistic that the Department of Justice will pursue criminal charges against Clinton, because Cruz says that Attorney General Eric Holder is so "politicized." On that point, Campbell specifically quoted the GOP presidential candidate as follows:"Unfortunately, with the Holder Justice Department, we have the most politicized Department of Justice we've ever seen. And there's no meaningful prospect of a fair and impartial investigation.... So it is my hope that [the] House Oversight [committee] will begin to shine a light on this. But what really needs to occur is a careful, sober assessment about whether the conduct that she has admitted to is directly contrary to federal law."<br /><br />According to the Colin Campbell report, when reached for comment on the allegations by Senator Cruz that the deletion of the server may have been criminal, Clinton spokesperson Nick Merrill told Business Insider he would simply stick to his past statements on the matter; also Clinton's lawyer, David Kendall, did not immediately respond to a request for comment.Galewyn Masseyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09210379476512207622noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3872239785607728837.post-65090764261505314892015-04-02T00:34:42.624-04:002015-04-02T00:34:42.624-04:00And who is Hillary Clinton in Maryland for "H...And who is Hillary Clinton in Maryland for "HILLARY [TO OPEN THE] DOOR..." to Martin O'Malley to run for Mikulski's seat?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3872239785607728837.post-84538177613425177022015-04-01T20:42:00.668-04:002015-04-01T20:42:00.668-04:00You really give me a headache Gale.

Hillary Clinton is entering a legitimate danger zone on a number of fronts. One of the reasons Democrats have stood by her throughout this email scandal has been her poll numbers against all potential GOP challengers. Democrats had convinced themselves that voters wouldn’t care about the scandal, or at least that was the public spin. *** No more....” And then the article went on to this provocative point: “For weeks after the email controversy broke, Martin O’Malley, a potential Clinton challenger for the Democrat nomination, was mum on the email scandal. *** No more....” ( See “Hillary’s in Trouble: O’Malley Blasts, Polls Plummet, Subpoenas Loom” by John Nolte, 4/1/15, Breitbart News [http://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2015/04/01/hillarys-in-trouble-omalley-blasts-polls-plummet-subpoenas-loom/]).<br /><br />John Nolte’s article for Breitbart News went on to say, “... [Governor] O’Malley assumed a very aggressive stance Tuesday saying if Clinton has nothing to hide she should come forward and talk openly about it. This is just two days after O’Malley said of Bush and Clinton, ‘The presidency of the United States is not some crown to be passed between two families.’....”<br /><br /><br />WHAT HAS SUDDENLY MADE O’MALLEY SO AGGRESSIVE ? COULD IT BE THE DELIBERATE AND CALCULATED BOXING-IN OF FORMER SECRETARY OF STATE CLINTON ON BENGHAZI AND HER E-MAILS ? <br /> <br />Other than what is obviously becoming a pattern of improper concealment and other wrongdoing, and the fact that, unlike Whitewater, cattle futures and adultery, operating a secret email server, and then deleting emails when under Congressional scrutiny is an easy scandal for the public understand, there is also the matter of Trey Gowdy. Unlike the media, Gowdy is determined to uncover the truth about Hillary’s thus-far secret emails, and Clinton’s and Obama’s Benghazi cover-up. And for the first time, it looks like the Clintons and the Obama Administration might have met their match.<br /><br />At least all of Hillary’s problems for the last month have given Governor Martin O’Malley an opening to weigh-in directly against Hillary Clinton’s strategy of hiding outside of the ring, and avoiding the hard punches and clinches. <br /><br /><br />REPUBLICANS CAN NOW QUOTE AND PARAPHRASE O’MALLEY TO DEFEND AGAINST ANY CLAIMS OF PARTISANSHIP<br /><br />In return, when Hillary’s folks complain about how all of the brouhaha is something concocted by Republicans, they can answer that another leading Democrat has said that if Hillary had nothing to hide she would have come forward and talked about it more openly.Galewyn Masseyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09210379476512207622noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3872239785607728837.post-830430058140610862015-04-01T16:18:17.465-04:002015-04-01T16:18:17.465-04:00"American voters care about jobs, quality of ..."American voters care about jobs, quality of living, ensuring a secure retirement, education, national security and equal rights including immigration reform...."<br /><br />Whenever a good Republican is having their ears beaten with crap like the line above from some "progressive Democrat loon" --- Just raise your hands slightly above your head and say, "STOP, DON'T SHOOT...."<br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3872239785607728837.post-42034091713678803752015-04-01T13:33:10.817-04:002015-04-01T13:33:10.817-04:00False accusations.

The mainstream press was glad to let that hot potato drop after Ms. Psaki said that there is no record of any OF 109 having been signed by Hillary Clinton.<br /><br />Psaki said that was because “... there’s a long tradition of secretaries of state making themselves available to future secretaries and presidents and secretaries are typically allowed to maintain their security clearance and access to their own records for use in writing their memoirs and the like.... Hence, this is not a form that many would have signed....” Also Psaki has said that in addition to not finding Hillary Clinton’s OF 109 form, State Department record keepers have said that the department has no record that former Secretaries of State Condoleezza Rice or Colin Powell signed separation statements upon their departure either. <br /><br />There is a problem with that, Secretary of State James Baker, himself a top Washington lawyer, said that the State Department rules governing the signing of an OF 109 form upon separation, do cover the Secretary; and he did sign such an OF 109 statement.<br /><br />Jen Psaki’s spin might be enough for most of the MSM and lots of gullible Democrat loyalists, but it shouldn’t be for congress and people who care about America. Both Hillary Clinton and a responsible representative of the State Department need to explain to a congressional oversight committee why Hillary Clinton’s OF 109 separation statement is not in the file. And if one wasn’t ever signed, why not.<br /><br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3872239785607728837.post-46096392263685552602015-04-01T01:49:28.365-04:002015-04-01T01:49:28.365-04:00UPDATE: THE “FIRST FORMAL MOVE BY OBAMA ADMINISTRA...UPDATE: THE “FIRST FORMAL MOVE BY OBAMA ADMINISTRATION AGAINST HILLARY CLINTON” EDITION<br /><br />STATE DEPARTMENT PROBERS FINALLY LOOKING AT HILLARY<br /><br />STATE DEPARTMENT INSPECTOR GENERAL OPENS INVESTIGATION OF HILLARY CLINTON’S E-MAILS AND RELATED MATTERS<br /> <br /><br />According to a Tuesday report in “The Hill,” that news magazine has confirmed that the State Department has begun an inquiry into former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s E–Mail setup, following calls from Republicans about former Secretary of State’s exclusive use of a private E-Mail address and server during her tenure at the State Department ( See “State Dept IG probing Clinton email setup” by Megan R. Wilson, 3/31/15, The Hill [http://thehill.com/homenews/237459-state-department-ig-probing-clinton-e-mail-practices]). <br /><br />The State Department’s IG has received other requests to look into former Secretary of State Clinton’s operations, stemming from questions that arose before the recent revelations about her personal email setup. One such request was from Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley, which questioned the special government employee (SGE) designation given to Clinton adviser Huma Abedin, because Abedin also worked for Teneo, a corporate advisory and business intelligence firm, while serving at the State Department.<br /><br />More recently, amid questions about the State Department’s record-keeping practices, Secretary of State Kerry has asked that the State Department's Inspector General conduct an investigation of the State Department’s ability to archive official documents. And in addition, the National Archives and Records Administration has also sought an explanation from the State Department as to how it has ensured that all of former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s official communications were properly collected and stored.<br /><br />Related matters that also might be investigated concern whether proper procedures were followed in processing Hillary Clinton’s departure from her post as Secretary of State, and her turnover and certification of documents at that time.Galewyn Masseyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09210379476512207622noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3872239785607728837.post-53789543252015964272015-04-01T00:35:34.066-04:002015-04-01T00:35:34.066-04:00Gail, tell your Democrat bff that Vinnie Gentile i...Gail, tell your Democrat bff that Vinnie Gentile is as likely to be the Democrat nominee for president in 2016 as Hillary Clinton.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3872239785607728837.post-22743157573478493732015-04-01T00:15:48.696-04:002015-04-01T00:15:48.696-04:00Ouch !!Ouch !!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3872239785607728837.post-73315942889373493672015-03-31T23:51:16.344-04:002015-03-31T23:51:16.344-04:00You Hillary Clintonistas seem to be so all up on y...You Hillary Clintonistas seem to be so all up on your disaster imagery, you should know that Hillary couldn't look more like she is in the middle of crashing and burning unless her hair was on fire, the name "Hindenburg" was tattooed on her tit and a Swastika inked on her ass, as she was doing a belly-wop onto the pad at Lakehurst.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3872239785607728837.post-76972521731772764572015-03-31T21:05:32.833-04:002015-03-31T21:05:32.833-04:00Really Gale, you remind me of the fiddler playing ...Really Gale, you remind me of the fiddler playing Nearer My God to Thee on the Titanic while it sinks.
