This email deals with the
idiotic statement made by Donald Trump and captured on audio 12 years
ago. He discussed his sexual advances on women. His comments were
totally stupid and irresponsible. But before we judge him ask yourself
what similarly stupid comments we have uttered or stunts we have wrongly
committed over our life times. I certainly qualify. The difference is
that his comments were captured on audio. Their veracity can be an
accounting of an actual or fabricated event(s). Either way they were
wrong. Only he knows the truth. Our transgressions, however, are lost
to time. But are no less real. Below are thoughts germane to the
upcoming election.
After her husband's behavior prior to and during his presidency and
her trashing of the women he abused, she has the audacity to tweet this
about Trump's comments. "This is horrific. We cannot allow this man to
become president." She is not only a world class liar but a horrific
hypocrite. https://twitter.com/HillaryClinton/status/784497331647422464
Matthew Dowd, a political pundit
and obvious Democrat supporter, on the ABC Good Morning America show 8
October said and I paraphrase: "Trump is in deep trouble. I don't know
how he can overcome this. Alluding to previous remarks made regarding
Bill Clinton's past and Hillary's role [not to mention her ongoing
troubles], he said the difference is that many Republicans have
withdrawn support from Trump and some are even calling for him to step
down. On the other hand no Democrats are calling for Hillary to step
down." In other words he rendered a backhanded endorsement for
Hillary. To him her foibles are excusable.
The previous evening Gwen Ifel
of Washington Week on PBS had a round table discussion which was really a
festival of comments regarding Trump's stumble and the negative impacts
it will have on his presidential run. Hillary's efforts designed to
destroy the lives and reputations of women who Bill sexually assaulted,
groped or raped, as well as his sexual escapades while in the White
House were apparently to them not germane to their assessments of
Trump's comments. You will recall that while Bill and Hillary worked to
cover up of his misdeeds she went on national TV and told Americans
that the charges against Bill were patently false. They were instead a
fabricated set of lies perpetrated by a "vast right wing conspiracy."
Bill's subsequent perjury under oath regarding of his sexual
transgressions and subsequent impeachment and loss of his law license
prove the lies told by both Bill and Hillary. Notably Ifel's round
table discussion gave Hillary's ongoing scandals only a passing glance.
Nothing to see there.
Let's decipher these items.
It is interesting the
differences between the behaviors of Republicans and Democrats with
respect to their presidential candidates. Republican Trump is being
vilified for making an inappropriate statement not only by fellow
Republicans but also the mainstream media and Democrats. Some
Republicans have even called for him to step down. Many Democrats insist
his comments disqualify him for office. He has taken ownership of his
remarks, apologized and admits he is no saint. He intends to seek the
public's approval for his run for the presidency based on his
professional career which many believe qualifies him for the job. He
wants to move on.
Hillary, on the other hand, has
not been vilified by Democrats for her serial lies about almost
everything she has done or said. In an interview with Scott Pelley of
CBS news when asked if she is an honest person. She had the audacity to
say, and I again paraphrase: "I am always honest and tell the truth. I
do not lie to the American people. I am an honest person." Her above
right wing conspiracy declaration was a whopper of a lie. More recently
she claims that she never received or sent classified emails over her
illegal private email system. Yet, FBI Director Comey just a few days
later affirmed to members of Congress challenging his failure to charge
Hillary with a crime that she had repeatedly lied to the FBI but her
violations did not reflect "intent" to commit a crime. He said that
even though the email record contained at least one email sequence
documenting Hillary's instructions to a State Department staffer to
delete classified markings on an email so it could be sent to her. The
FBI has confirmed that hundreds of classified documents passed over her
private email system. But in contrast to Trump's ready admission and
apology, Hillary will not even admit she has repeatedly and with total
impunity lied to the American people about her email disaster and more.
There is for example the alleged corruption regarding her actions while
Secretary of State in support of massive foreign donations to her
family's private Clinton Foundation. The matter is now under
investigation by the FBI. And there is the documented collusion
between her, Obama and the State Department regarding the causes for and
her actions not taken in the Benghazi disaster which included proven
lies to the public about their made up cause for the tragedy (a
nondescript video) and the real cause (a terrorist act) shared with her
family and selected heads of states. More examples exist.
Democrats are strangely silent
regarding her many transgressions not to mention violations of national
security laws and her obvious unsavory character. Yet they vilify Trump
for 12 year old inappropriate comments while barely acknowledging
Hillary's past and her serious character flaws. Both their hypocrisy
and total absence of integrity is palpable.
Does anyone notice the
difference? Do Democrats have any core values? What about a grain
of morality? After all they claimed while Bill was in office that his
transgressions and abusive behavior were a matter of consensual sex
amongst adults. And they must have felt that Hillary's efforts to
destroy his victims were no consequence. Yes, the facts are that he was a
serial sexual philander. Nonetheless Democrat claims were that his
previous transgressions were ancient history and did not affect his
ability to serve as president. Today Democrats are the proponents of
all manner of sexual rights and privileges long held by society as
deviant behavior. They even promote men claiming to be transsexuals
have a right to use female facilities, little girls in them
notwithstanding. And Trump's obviously misguided comments are a
monumental matter of concern to them??? Bill's actual sexual abuse of
women is not an issue??? Hillary's trashing of his victims is of no
concern??? But Ttrump's 12 year old comments are cause to
disenfranchise his right to serve as president??? That is rank
hypocrisy!!!
At least Trump lives in the real
world and admits his wrong doings but Hillary lives in an altered state
where truth are lies and lies are truth. A stark difference exists
between the ethics and morality of Democrats and Republicans. Consider
with great care your upcoming vote.
