Hillary, It's Time to Come Clean

To quote Matt Barber, “I can’t wait for ‘Weekend at Chelsea’s’ to hit the big screen.CNN and the rest of Hillary Clinton’s slobbering media sycophants have already written the script. If this woman, God forbid, dropped dead on the sidewalk tomorrow, these doting suck-ups – these mass media strumpets whose voter trust has, understandably, reached an all time low – would dutifully parrot the Clinton campaign talking points and call it a ‘minor setback’ to her ‘inevitable’ victory.” 

Is it not about time the Clinton campaign comes clean? Don’t hold your breath, they won’t, but they should. I wonder what official “diagnosis” we’ll get the next time Hillary seizes up and collapses into the arms of unnervingly calm Secret Service personnel acting as though they’ve been there a hundred times before. The point is that, once more, by lying about illness, Mrs. Clinton has bolstered (and justified) concerns about both her physical and moral fitness to serve as president. She’s proven, yet again, that she can’t be trusted. She has confirmed a number of pre-conceptions that voters, as revealed by her historically low approval ratings, have formed relative to her health and character. She’s a liar. That’s her default mode. She’s crooked. And she’s sick. She puts her own personal political ambition and lust for power above all else – including the best interests of the nation, and one might conclude, even her own life. 

Indeed, Mrs. Clinton has had her ups and downs over the past several weeks. But her poll numbers are above the Mendoza line (baseball slang for poor performance), admittedly just a hair above Trump's. Her recent medical crisis coupled with her stepping in it by smearing half of Donald Trump’s supporters as a “racist” and “irredeemable” “basket of deplorables,” has only served to accelerate the downward plunge. 

Perhaps this is because of the glaring hypocrisy associated with such a statement – especially by this particular woman. the same woman whose Democratic Party opposed the 1964 Civil Rights Act while Republicans, not unlike those she just slandered, worked hard to pass it. Finally, and going back a bit further, this is the same Hillary Clinton whose party fought a war to maintain slavery in the U.S. while hundreds-of-thousands of Republicans gave up their lives to free them.  

Despite her obvious character flaws and eversion to the truth I’m praying for Hillary Clinton. The reader may ask, why pray for someone as hateful or evil as she?  I ask, why not pray for her?  Despite what her campaign and worshipful media disciples are peddling, and notwithstanding her being caught in lie after lie, our eyes have been telling us the truth for months, maybe even years now. To watch this increasingly frail, bitter and elderly woman stiffen up, convulse and collapse into the arms of well-practiced staffers is hard to stomach. You can’t help but feel some degree of compassion for her, malicious though she may be.
