Excerpts from Hillary’s speeches have been leaked and, according to The Intercept, include highlighted remarks that show she isn’t an honest person…but then, we already knew that. Examples follow:
The excerpts are revealed in an email from Tony Carrk, the research director of the Clinton campaign, to John Podesta, the campaign chairman, and other top campaign officials. Carrk, who did not respond to a request for comment, highlighted in the memo the most politically damaging quotes from each paid speech, under headers including “CLINTON ADMITS SHE IS OUT OF TOUCH,” “CLINTON SAYS YOU NEED TO HAVE A PRIVATE AND PUBLIC POSITION ON POLICY,” and “CLINTON REMARKS ARE PRO KEYSTONE AND PRO TRADE.”…
…At the Goldman Sachs Builders and Innovators Summit, Clinton responded to a question from chief executive Lloyd Blankfein, who quipped that you “go to Washington” to “make a small fortune.” Clinton agreed with the comment and complained about ethics rules that require officials to divest from certain assets before entering government. “There is such a bias against people who have led successful and/or complicated lives,” Clinton said.
At a speech for Morgan Stanley on April 18, 2013, Clinton praised the Simpson-Bowles deficit reduction plan — which would reduce corporate tax rates while raising the Social Security age. “But Simpson-Bowles — and I know you heard from Erskine earlier today — put forth the right framework. Namely, we have to restrain spending, we have to have adequate revenues, and we have to incentivize growth. It’s a three-part formula,” she said. …
… During a talk in Grand Rapids, Michigan, in 2013, Clinton praised the single-payer model for health care reform. “If you look at the single-payer systems, like Scandinavia, Canada, and elsewhere, they can get costs down because, you know, although their care, according to statistics, overall is as good or better on primary care,” she said, adding that there were some drawbacks. “They do impose things like waiting times, you know.”
But during the campaign this year, she dismissed the idea, declaring that single payer will “never, ever” happen in the U.S. Audio obtained by The Intercept last week showed Clinton dismissing the concept of free health care during another private event with donors.
Progressive election strategy has always been to pander to various groups even when they disagree with the things they propose. They do this KNOWING that their proposals may be bad for the overall economy or the “common good.” Seventy years of this and we have massive debt to show for it and not much to show that any of the redistribution and give-away programs have actually produced the “progress” they constantly tout. In private, to people who know about things economic, they reveal the truth.
In other emails we fins a Hillary quote (to Podesta)…posted by Sundance at Conservative Treehouse:
“My dream is a hemispheric common market, with open trade and open borders, some time in the future with energy that is as green and sustainable as we can get it, powering growth and opportunity for every person in the hemisphere”.
Ahhh…how cute. Hillary has a dream. Sadly she proposes the progressive reality of struggle, misery, and danger for the masses…while enjoying personal wealth and security for her privileged self. She knows her vision is bogus…or was she lying to the guys on WS who line her miserable pockets to try to keep her off their backs?
Does it matter…the people are tired of dishonest politics and back room politics
Sundance also posted a link to the data file in case any of you wish to study.
Go look up “trite”. That is what your objections are coming to be … that … and “by rote”. Ya know, there”s conservative, and then there’s willfully obtuse.
We are moving on. You don’t want to come, don’t. But you will not be permitted to hold us up.
Go ahead. Stick that fat head in the sand. All is well when you close you eyes and don’t listen.
I didn’t write, nor did I try to hide, the emails. Most of her emails were supposed to be part of the public record.
Had she not attempted to deceive there wouldn’t be so much interest. If she wasn’t saying one thing to the public and another to the wealthy bankers who back there wouldn’t be anything to disclose.
Besides…you, your party, and the progressive partisan media are moving (all of us) back to the stone age! The game YOU play is repetition, repetition, repetition!
And if you want something different to talk about try promoting a more interesting, viable, honest candidate.
The timing of the video of TheDonald alongside this story suggests that the video could’ve been released to take attention away from $hilLIARy’s speeches.
Don’t know which came first, but the timing is interesting …. and the media presstitutes seem to be ignoring the speech story.
I doubt that TheDonald will ignore it at Sunday’s debate.
