Lest You Consider Voting for Hillary

Hillary Clinton may be the most flawed politician ever to run for the presidency. If she isn't, Donald Trump is. But there is a substantial difference between Trump and Clinton's flaws. Trump is not a competent politician and many of his blunders are precisely related to this. Clinton is a seasoned politician and her blunders are the result of character flaws or intentional action.  In other words, Clinton is not a good person.  She would not be a good leader.

She lacks a sense of personal responsibility. You don't need to dig deeply to find multiple examples of Hillary not taking any responsibility for her personal deficiencies. Early on, "the vast right wing conspiracy" was the cause of her and her husband's bad press. Just in the past few months, additional evidence that Bill was a epic cheater has come to light. It wasn't a fabrication by the vast right wing.  It was truth of which Hillary was very aware, and quite possibly an enabler.

Remember the "what difference does it make?" line uttered during the congressional investigation into Benghazi?  She was deflecting blame for the death of 4 Americans, including her employee the Libyan ambassador, claiming the entire fiasco was caused by a YouTube video that disparaged Mohammad.

The entire email episode is peppered with Clinton quotes claiming that what she did was no different that what other cabinet members had done. While most Americans see the difference, Hillary claims there isn't any. She claims her personal email was a "mistake", however that does not amount to taking responsibility as she has not face any consequence.

She lies obsessively.  She no longer knows what truth is. Hillary has this personality disorder that is common in politicians.  She rarely answers the question she is asked, but when she does, it is usually a lie.  Politifact, a left leaning fact-checker, has two pages of Hillary lies just from her recent candidacy. An entire blog post could be dedicated to the lies she tells in a single speech, so I will simply recount a few of the golden oldies.

When she and Bill left the white house, Hillary claimed they were "dead broke".  Interesting how they were able to put a $855,000 down payment on their home during this period.

During the 2008 campaign, Hillary claimed that during a trip to Bosnia, she and her posse came under sniper fire and they had to run with their heads down to their awaiting vehicle.  She must not have known that press camera's were taping the event.  The fact was their arrival was stress free, with no gun fire. The sniper fire was either imagined or completely fabricated.

Clinton claimed to have been named after Sir Edmund Hillary, one of the first to have climbed mount Everest.  The problem is that Hillary was 6 years old when that climb was made.  Facts are difficult for a pathological liar to avoid.



Benghazi is the best evidence that lying comes natural to Hillary. Early on she became aware the deaths of 4 Americans was the result of a terrorist act,  Yet she felt she needed, or was directed, to cover up that fact during an election year when her boss was claiming that Al Qaeda was in retreat and terrorism on the decline. She sent her State department minions out to the talking head shows claiming the attack was a spontaneous reaction to a YouTube video, then told the families of the victims that she would make the film maker pay for what he had done.  All lies.  All in the open now without the help of HRC.

Then there are the possible and probable lies about her $100,000 cattle futures profit, or the Whitewater paperwork that suddenly appeared in the white house residence after the scandal had died.  In short, she lies about everything. Barack Obama agreed.

She is unaccomplished. It is amazing to hear her supporters answer the question "What has Hillary Clinton accomplished in her many years in politics?".  Most are speechless.  A few ramble about her time as first lady, Secretary of State or Senator from New York.  But mostly, her accomplishments can be summarized as marrying Bill and being a woman. The left will claim the following are accomplishments.

  • Sanctions on Iran that brought them to the table. Actually, there were sanctions on Iran before HRC and bringing them to the table ultimately led to John Kerry's disastrous nuclear agreement that does nothing for America while paving the way for Iran to develop nuclear arms.  
  • Nearly every foreign policy "victory" of Obama's has HRC's fingerprints.  I struggle to find the foreign policy victories.  I guess that means the peace we now find in the mid-east, the decline of ISIS, and the horrible trade agreements now in place.  
  • Rebuilding America's leadership and prestige after the Bush administration's failures.  I guess that means that HRC was instrumental in developing the apologetic "leading from behind" foreign policy of the Obama administration.
  • HillaryCare. Republicans and democrats united in opposition and a bill was never delivered for a vote. It was a complete failure, just as Obamacare has been.
She has brought candidate hypocrisy to a new level.  The best example is her constant blathering about how Wall Street has walked over the middle class to gain their wealth, and how she will stop it. All the while, she has collected millions of dollars in speaking fees from the same villains.

Maybe it is evolution, but you don't need to go far back into history to hear HRC claiming that she believed marriage was between one man and one woman. She pivoted quickly when it became political expedient to do so.

She is crooked. Trump has a knack of naming his opponents in an effective way.  In this case, the name could not be more perfect.  It started with Whitewater and cattle futures, but has become perfected with the Clinton Foundation.  The foundation is based on quid pro quo and pay for play.  It began during HRC's term at the state department and has expanded in the years leading up to her candidacy. The foundation has accepted hundreds of millions of dollars in donations in return for favorable rulings, inside information and "future considerations" once she becomes president.

If HRC is to be stopped, this may be her downfall as information drips almost daily on shady decisions, appointments and favors after a significant donation - many from foreign governments. This is the reason Clinton had a private email server, and why she tried to wipe it, "like with a cloth?".  If the FBI was able to recover a few of those wiped emails that indicate pay for play, she faces prison time or the need to phone a friend for a pardon.  All other Clinton scandals pale in comparison.

She is evil. As a Christian and a believer in the sanctity of life, any pro-choice candidate cannot be supported.  But HRC is not the typical pro-choice candidate.  HRC believes there should be no restrictions on abortion, none. And while the president does not directly rule on issues such as abortion, they do appoint the judges who do.  With the next president appointing 1-4 supreme court justices during their term, can we afford to let HRC make those choices?



During a recent interview on "The View", HRC said that an unborn child just hours away from birth has no constitutional rights. Earlier she said that unborn children simply do not have constitutional rights, including the right to life. Weeks before she related her husbands veto of partial birth abortion claiming these decisions should be made using the mother's own conscience.  Simply put, HRC would object to any restriction on abortion right up until the moment of birth.  This can only be described as evil.
