Clinton resurrects vast, right-wing conspiracy

Hillary Clinton has hit the campaign warpath in earnest, and is again reverting to the Clinton team’s old playbook. Speaking to Democrat municipal officials in New Hampshire, Clinton resurrected her notion of “a vast right-wing conspiracy.” She was speaking of the conviction of three Republican operatives on criminal charges of “telephone harassment” for repeated prank calls to Demo phone banks, allegedly to hinder organizers’ get-out-the-vote effort during the 2006 congressional election campaign. “To the New Hampshire Democratic Party’s credit, they sued and the trail led all the way to the Republican National Committee,” Clinton said. “So if anybody tells you there is no vast, right-wing conspiracy, tell them that New Hampshire has proven it in court.”

New Hampshire Democrat Party chairwoman Kathy Sullivan wasted no time in echoing Clinton’s sentiment. “People think we’re paranoid when we talk about the vast, right-wing conspiracy, but there is a real connection of these groups—the same names keep popping up,” crowed Sullivan. “They are the most disgusting group of political thugs that I have ever seen.”

The Democrats have forgotten more about thuggery than Republicans will ever know. Consider the four Milwaukee-area Kerry-Edwards campaign workers who were sentenced to four to six months in jail for slashing the tires of twenty-five vans rented by Republicans to take voters to the polls in the 2004 election. Speaking of letters he received from Milwaukee residents, Judge Michael Brennan told the defendants, “They see you tampering with something they consider sacred, and that’s the ballot box.” It is no small detail, of course, that two of the four convicted felons are sons of Milwaukee’s Demo elite, namely former acting mayor Marvin Pratt and sitting U.S. Rep. Gwen Moore.

Note to the junior senator from New York: If you want to talk about conspiracies to deprive citizens of their right to vote, first pluck the log from thine own eye. patriotpost.us
