Hillary
Finally Admits Her Funders Get What They Pay For

- Hillary Clinton has finally
admitted that she creates public policy,
deciding life and death for thousands, based on
favors that have been done for her. I know you
believed that when Saudi Arabia and Boeing put
millions into the Clinton Foundation that had zero
impact on her crusade to put through major weapons
sales by Boeing to Saudi Arabia. I know her secret
speeches to Goldman Sachs can't possibly have hinted
at her providing any services in return for the big
checks. But Hillary herself now says otherwise.
Hillary voted
for the 2003 war on Iraq, she explains, because
George W. Bush gave her $20 billion to rebuild New
York.
Hillary
pushed hard for a war on Libya in 2011 because, she
claims, the Europeans wanted it, and they had been
helping out with the U.S. led project of killing
people in Afghanistan.
Hillary
made these comments in the midst of a bunch of
eye-catching lies, but don't be distracted. Yes it's
outrageous that she lies that Saddam Hussein
wouldn't give inspectors free rein, and does so just
moments before she excuses her promotion of the war
by claiming that if Bush had let the inspectors
continue their work they would have proven that no
weapons existed. Sure it's outlandish that she's
still pushing the lie about Qadaffi's plan to
"murder his own people." Of course it's disgusting
that she suggests Libya is doing all right now. It's
perverse that when asked about her fondness for
overthrowing governments she shouts "9/11" and
"Hitler" and "Rwanda"!
But don't
miss the main point. Hillary is confessing that her
decisions are based on personal favors, and the
world be damned.
