Compounding Hitlery’s continuing email woes comes
news that her résumé for 2016, at least when it comes to her promoting women's
rights around the world, may now be coming under some much needed scrutiny as
her actions as secretary of state, as well as foreign funding questions
swirling around her family foundation, seem to have opened the door regarding
her rather questionable connection to regimes known for their rather unfriendly
attitude toward women's rights.
While Hitlery will, no doubt, champion her
‘experience’ at the State Department as well as her work on women's issues as a
first lady and senator, how people will come to view how that squares with her
friendly relations with governments like Saudi Arabia and others in the Middle
East may likely need to be a bit better spun.
But knowing her as we do, and the fact that many in the state-controlled
media remain steadfast supporters, I’m sure the proper amount of spin, will be
spun.
The so-called "Hillary Doctrine" follows
her own words on human rights: "The subjugation of women [is] a threat to
the common security of our world and to the national security of our
country." But that declaration
would seem to stand in stark contrast to her joining such world leaders as the
Saudi foreign minister, Prince Saud al-Faisal, in 2010 as well as the Clinton
Foundation's eagerness to accept millions in donations from nations like Qatar,
Oman, Algeria, Kuwait and the United Arab Emirates.
It’s in those countries that gender inequality is
not only real but a protected way of life.
And as recently as last week Hitlery defended her record when questions
arose about the foundation's donations.
She said in the wake of a release of a U.N. report about the status of
women and girls: "There can’t be any mistake about my passion concerning
women’s rights here at home and around the world. So I think that people who
want to support the foundation know full well what it is we stand for and what
we’re working on."
Others say her record is worth questioning and are now
giving it a second look as Hitlery prepares to launch a national campaign. Danielle Pletka, vice president for foreign
and defense policy studies at the American Enterprise Institute, asked
"What exactly are her grand accomplishments on behalf of women?" And in essentially answering her own question,
Ms. Pletka said, "I'm really impressed with how she turned around Saudi
Arabia.'' And she then went on to add,
"She doesn't do much more than talk.''
And there are also other powerful women in the political
and business sphere who have also raised a cold eyebrow to Hitlery's rather
obvious contradictions. One of those
being former Hewlett-Packard CEO, and potential 2016 GOP presidential
candidate, Carly Fiorina. Ms. Fiorina
told a Conservative Political Action Conference group in February that Hitlery
"tweets about women's rights in this country and takes money from
governments that deny women the most basic human rights."
‘Slick Willie’ Clinton, also well-known for his
being a staunch defender of women’s rights, as long as the women happen to be
on their knees, defended his family foundation's donations from Middle East
countries, as part of the family's pushback on the scrutiny. The ‘Slickmeister’
asked, rhetorically of course, "Do we agree with everything they do?
No!" And then went to say,
"You’ve got to decide when you do this work whether it will do more good
than harm if someone helps you from another country.”
This is all just more of what we have come to expect
from the Clintons, and what I think many people are tired of. Hitlery likes to portray herself as being an
advocate for women, when she is really nothing of the sort, especially when it
comes to those women who have been molested, or worse, by her husband. And when it comes to the supposed ‘war on
women’ it’s Hiterly who, I would argue, is essentially a traitor to those for whom
she claims to be an advocate. It would seem that her concern for women’s rights
can very easily be silenced, as long as the price is right.
