The hell she will create as President...

If we know anything, we all know the hell waiting for American families with President Hillary.

Past performance IS a reliable indicator of future performance.

From the massive disaster known as the Iraq War, to a violent State Dept. tenure that turned Libya, Syria and Yemen into hell holes of violent extremism. Millions of lives were shattered and the consequences will be carried for generations. In spite of the chaos caused by her interventionist ideology, Hillary remains an unapologetic neo-conservative.

From lobbying for Wall Street banks to intervening as a government official on behalf of big Wall Street contributors to her personal foundation. As a corporate Democrat, Hillary has been in the middle of it all.

American workers will have ZERO representation with Hillary Clinton. Clearly toxic trade deals sending millions of jobs to slave labor in Mexico and Asia are called the "gold standard" and "good for New York and America".

Then, there are the idiotic statements about welfare dependency and tough on crime sabre rattling and more equally idiotic statements about email security, gay marriage, sniper fire and being dead broke leaving the White House.

War, inequality, injustice, and bad judgement... there's a common theme.

It hits us right at home.

It hits our paychecks, our health care and education costs. Her corporate philosophies coupled with Wall Street money are working hard to destroy the quality of life in America for working families.

The tortured explanations defending her actions aren't just cringe worthy, they are vomit worthy.

Evolved? Easy for her to say. The damage is done. Families hurt. Money lost.

I'd rather vote for someone who gets it right the first time.

Hillary wants everything. We owe her nothing.

"Pulling Myself Up By My Own Bootstraps", Heartwarming Biography of an Outsider Candidate

Forthcoming bio, excerpts just released.

From the Chapter on Growing Up and Leaving Home

After personally intervening to defuse the riots triggered by Martin Luther King's assassination, I turned down a West Point scholarship offered to me by this guy I met. While I might have deferred my entitled future as a military hero, I wasn't about to stay home and bake cookies. I was, after all, the plucky child of hardworking American immigrants and my mother named me after one of the most famous mountain climbers in the world. Even though I was dead broke when I left home, I overcame my struggles and climbed my way to the top.


From the Chapter on Diplomacy
I made a decision to live up to the inspirational figures and namesakes bestowed upon me. Surviving childhood in a war torn, violent community gifted me an ability to manipulate events with surgeon-like skills. Whether negotiating the Northern Ireland peace process, dodging sniper fire in Bosnia to end the Balkan war or spreading American-style democracy to Libya, Syria and Yemen, I was able draw upon the strength and experience of my own imagination as a brilliant diplomat. For example, if you want peace in the Middle east, you have two options, bomb Palestinians until they give up or slip them into Egypt, overnight, when no one is looking.


From the Chapter on Survival
Goldman Sachs, Ctitgroup, PhARMA had me under siege. Their daily onslaught of cash bombs shook the very core of my foundation. I used wheelbarrows, dump trucks, pyramids and anything I could get my hands on to protect my family. As the chaos of wealth and privilege exploded all around me, I held quiet vigil in off-shore tax shelters. It is a blessed miracle that I survived. But I learned a valuable lesson about money. Welfare is like slavery. Too many of those on welfare had known nothing but dependency all their lives. It was time for reform.


From the Chapter on Technology
Having two devices for email is inconvenient which is why I keep a US Government email server in my basement. I don’t know, I don’t throw anything away. I’m like two steps short of a hoarder. So I have an iPad, a mini iPad, an iPhone and a Blackberry. Actually, email is a bit confusing to me which is why I like sending jobs to China and India. All that boring technical stuff needs to go to Asia so we can free up our time for more important things like deregulating Wall Street banks.

Breaking eggs to make an omelet, right?

Hillary might have had a shitty State Dept. track record, continues to have shitty trickle-down Reaganesque supply-side economic views, she hasn't met a job that she doesn't want to send to Mexico or Asia, supported shitty tough on crime prison bills that ruined the lives of millions... but who cares?

Clearly, some people are entitled, especially if they are rich well connected Wall Street Democrats. Some are even celebrated for breaking rules. They call it leadership, crafty, political know-how, plucky and empowered, ready to turn at the slightest opportunity. Some folks even believe chronic ethical lapses are the highest qualifications for President of the USA.

But that's not for us, is it? That's for the Clinton class citizens; the entitled ones whose net worth affords them a bit more freedom and indiscretion from the rules that the little people have to follow. We're all equal, it's just that some are more equal than others. And some people have to follow more rules than others. Just ask your friendly neighborhood Police Dept or NSA.

When Democrats go down the drain in mid-terms and general elections for being authority-bound, unpopular and out of touch, in a misguided effort to win the hearts and minds of conservatives, I guess we're supposed to take pride in the fact that we enforce party discipline. Our conservative leaders, like Debbie Wasserman Shultz, will explain the electoral disasters by attacking liberals. They'll say "if only they would shut up and follow our rules, we'd win!."

The irony should be obvious and familiar: political authority type demands strict compliance and loyalty in order to protect a divisive, polarizing candidate famous for ethical lapses and a lack of discipline. We all know censorship prevents solid citizens who have the time and ability to make a difference from engaging in critical speech. With censorship, we lose the essential voices necessary to expose corruption. Perhaps that's the threat from liberals that worries Democratic Party leadership the most. We sweat the details.

If there is a god, let them save us from the political party ideologues. They represent the prudish, right wing intolerance at our American political core.

It's a big suck factor for quality of life in the USA and it is suppressing the vote at exactly the wrong time.
