FACTS ABOUT HILLARY THAT MUST BE MADE KNOWN

Submitted by: Kurt J Fitsch

AN ANALYSIS  WORTH READING

 by Dick Morris, former political advisor to President Bill Clinton

 

"If you happen to see the Bill Clinton 5-minute TV ad for Hillary in

which he introduces the commercial by saying he wants to share some

things we may not know about Hillary's background, beware. As I was

there for most of their presidency and know them better than just

about anyone, I offer a few corrections.

 

Bill says: "In law school, Hillary worked on legal services for the poor."

The facts are: Hillary's main extra-curricular activity in law school

was helping the Black Panthers, on trial in Connecticut for torturing

and killing a federal agent. She went to court every day as part of a

law student monitoring committee trying to spot civil rights

violations and develop grounds for appeal.

 

Bill says: "Hillary spent a year after graduation working on a

children's rights project for poor kids."

The facts are: Hillary interned with Bob Truehaft, the head of the

California Communist Party. She met Bob when he represented the

Panthers and traveled all the way to San Francisco to take an

internship with him.

 

Bill says: "Hillary could have written her own job ticket, but she

turned down all the lucrative job offers."

The facts are: She flunked the DC bar exam; yes, flunked.  It is a

matter of record, and only passed the Arkansas bar. She had no job

offers in Arkansas - none - and only got hired by the University of

Arkansas Law School at Fayetteville because Bill was already teaching

there. She did not join the prestigious Rose Law Firm until Bill

became Arkansas Attorney General and was made a partner only after he

was elected Arkansas Governor.

 

Bill says: "President Carter appointed Hillary to the Legal Services

Board of Directors and she became its chairman."

The facts are: The appointment was in exchange for Bill's support for

Carter in his 1980 primary against Ted Kennedy. Hillary then became

chairman in a coup in which she won a majority away from Carter's

choice to be chairman.

 

Bill says: "She served on the board of the Arkansas Children's Hospital."

The facts are:  Yes, she did. But her main board activity, not

mentioned by Bill, was to sit on the Walmart board of directors for a

substantial fee. She was silent about their labor and health care

practices.

 

Bill says: "Hillary didn't succeed at getting health care for all

Americans in 1994, but she kept working at it and helped to create the

Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP) that provides five million

children with health insurance."

The  facts are:   Hillary had nothing to do with creating CHIP. It was

included in the budget deal between Clinton and Republican Majority

Leader Senator Trent Lott. I know; I  helped negotiate the deal. The

money came half from the budget deal and half from the Attorney

Generals' tobacco settlement. Hillary had nothing to do with either

source of funds.

 

Bill says: "Hillary  was the face of America all over the world."

The facts are: Her visits were part of a program to get her out of

town so that Bill would not appear weak by feeding stories that

Hillary was running the White House. Her visits abroad were entirely

touristic and symbolic and there was no substantive diplomacy on any

of them.

 

Bill says: "Hillary was an excellent Senator who kept fighting for

children's and women's issues."

The facts are: Other than totally meaningless legislation like

changing the names on courthouses and post offices, she has passed

only four substantive pieces of legislation. One set up a national

park in Puerto Rico. A second  provided respite care for family

members helping their relatives through Alzheimer's or other

conditions. And two were routine bills to aid 911 victims and

responders which were sponsored by the entire NY delegation. Presently

she is trying to have the US memorialize the Woodstock fiasco of 40

years ago.

 

Here is what bothers me more than anything else about Hillary Clinton.

She has done everything possible to weaken the President and our

country (that's you and me!) when it comes to the war on terror.

1. She wants to close GITMO and move the combatants to the USA where

they would have access to our legal system.

2. She wants to eliminate the monitoring of suspected Al Qaeda phone

calls to/from the USA .

3. She wants to grant constitutional rights to enemy combatants

captured on the battlefield.

4. She wants to eliminate the monitoring of money transfers between

suspected Al Qaeda cells and supporters in the USA.

5. She wants to eliminate the type of interrogation tactics used by

the military & CIA where coercion might be used when questioning known

terrorists even though such tactics might save American lives.

 

One cannot think of a single bill Hillary has introduced or a single

comment she has made that would tend to strengthen our country in the

War on Terror. But, one can think of a lot of comments she has made

that weaken our country and make it a more dangerous situation for all

of us. Bottom line: She goes hand in hand with the ACLU on far too

many issues where common sense is abandoned.

 

Share this with every female Democrat you know ... ask them to prove

Dick Morris wrong. Think  about it - he's (Dick Morris) said all of

this openly, thus if he were not truthful he'd be liable for

defamation of  character! And you better believe Hilary would sue him.

Is America ready for a woman president?  I believe we are, just NOT

this one."
