Top 15 Reasons Why Hillary Clinton is the Worst Mistake for President–Even for Liberals!


Hillary Clinton. She was a former first lady, a senator, and secretary of state. And now, she’s running once again for the presidency. Progressives and women all over America are elated that she’s in the race because a woman president would mean that the U.S. is avant-garde and becoming more open minded–long live feminism! But the t***h is, these people are so focused on the fact that she would be the first woman president that they’re turning a blind eye to the issues about her views and her track record, which are what really matter. That’s why we’ve gathered the facts and present to you the top 15 reasons why this pro-war, pro-c***ting, corporate mongrel is the worst mistake for our 2016 president.

#15

As a U.S. Senator Hillary didn’t accomplish a whole lot. In fact, we’re wondering if she even accomplished anything given that there isn’t a single piece of legislation to her name. Instead, she will always be linked to Obama’s disastrous record on foreign policy as well as failure to fix the economy. How will that t***slate into a president that gets things done in the White House? We don’t know either.

United States Secretary of State Hillary Clinton smiles during her speech "Energy Diplomacy in the 21st Century" at Georgetown University in Washington October 18, 2012.

#14

Many of the Clinton era scandals in the 90’s – including the opening up of 900 confidential FBI files of political opponents – cast Hillary in a suspicious light. Nothing was proven and the accusations were dropped, but you know the saying, “If it looks like a duck and quacks like a duck….”

#13

Hillary Clinton admitted her opposition to the troop surge in Iraq was politically motivated because she knew she would be facing Barack Obama in the 2008 Democratic primary. She’s less concerned with actual issues and more concerned with playing political games to make her appear better than she is.

WASHINGTON, DC - MARCH 23: Former U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton speaks at the Center for American Progress March 23, 2015 in Washington, DC. Clinton joined a panel in discussing challenges facing urban centers in the United States.

#12

When Hilary was working on the Watergate investigation, she was fired. Why? Well, her supervisor at the time said, “She was an unethical, dishonest lawyer. She conspired to violate the Constitution, the rules of the House, the rules of the committee and the rules of confidentiality.”

#11

A top adviser to Hillary Clinton at the State Department was given a special arrangement that allowed her to earn money from a corporation formed by a Bill Clinton aide, and allowed her to serve in a role with the Clinton Foundation while she was a federal employee. How convenient that this information was left off the disclosure forms for the State Department. Whoopsies.

#10

When Hillary starts talking about her future health care ideas for 2016, be weary. Her previous health care plan bombed so bad it cost the Democrats control of Congress, including control of the House of Representatives for the first time in 40 years.

#9

If elected president, Hillary will be 69 years old. A bit old, no? V**ers want a fresh face and one that knows the issues the younger generations are facing. V**ers want to know that jobs will be created, taxes will be reformed, and entitlements will be fixed. They don’t the same old thing, or even something old.

#8

Hillary broke U.S. law by using private email accounts and then going on to delete thousands of emails. As Secretary of State, she was supposed to keep all records. It seems quite suspicious and it’s hard to trust someone that’s so quick to delete anything and everything.

#7

She has been a vocal proponent of the same drone war that has led to the deaths of 2,400 civilians. But it’s not something she will own up to. Who, me?!

#6

During her time as Secretary of State, Ambassador Christopher Stevens and three other Americans were murdered when terrorists stormed the American compound in B******i, Libya. Clinton was questioned about the Administration’s initial story that the attack was provoked by an anti-Islam YouTube video, Clinton Callously Yelled (blurted), “What difference, at this point, does it make?” Defensive, much?

Hillary Clinton speaks at a women's e******y event March 9, 2015 in New York. Two women with global clout -- Hillary Clinton and Melinda Gates -- released a sweeping report on Monday showing that women are still far from winning e******y in leadership positions. The "No Ceilings Full Participation" report is a review of progress made by women since the 1995 Beijing conference laid out a platform of action for achieving g****r e******y. The report was released at the start of a 12-day UN conference on women that will focus on women's political power and their influence in economic decision-making. The report was compiled by the Clinton and Gates foundations, the Economist Intelligence Unit and the World Policy Center of the University of California in Los Angeles.

#5

In her recent memoir, Hard Choices, she bragged about having presided over the imposition of “crippling sanctions” on the Iranian economy during her tenure as secretary of state. These crippling sanctions are a form of collective punishment and have benefited the wealthy only, while making life miserable for everyone else. A true altruistic soul, she is.

#4

In an interview with Atlantic columnist Jeffrey Goldberg in August 2014, Hillary talked about her views on Iran, staking out a maximalist position on Iranian nuclear enrichment, which effectively opens the door to military intervention aka war.

#3

Hillary has a long history of being more than willing to serve the interests of large corporations. Probably because in the end, it serves her financially. In 1976, while serving as legal counsel for the Rose Law Firm, she represented several Arkansas utilities companies that sued the state after a b****t initiative passed that would reduce utilities rates on Little Rock residents and increased them on corporations. In defending the utilities conglomerates, Clinton argued that the initiative amounted to an unconstitutional seizure of property. The judge ruled in these companies’ favor. I wonder who is backing her campaign now?

#2

If you don’t like the Obama administration’s record on civil liberties – from its continuation of NSA spying, rampant secrecy and overzealous prosecution of whistleblowers – then Hillary Clinton aren’t going to like Hillary Clinton as your leader. While in the Senate, she v**ed for the Patriot Act as well as its subsequent reauthorization. In an appearance in April 2014 at the University of Connecticut, she defended NSA surveillance and chastised whistleblower Edward Snowden, accusing him of supporting terrorism

Lastly, there’s not enough room in the world for this many pants suits.

3 Big Reasons Hillary Clinton Should Never Be President Zero Accomplishments. Bad for Women. And She's Dumb.


"Hillary Clinton remains the most formidable p**********l nomination frontrunner for a non-incumbent in the modern era," Harry J. Enten writes in The Guardian. It's not just Brits. "Since leaving Foggy Bottom," Linda K**lian waxed in The Atlantic, "she has positioned herself as an icon of women's empowerment. That makes another White House run even more important and likely."


S**t.


Please stop the Hillary puffery. The last thing the country needs is a Hillary candidacy — much less another President Clinton.


PrezHill would be bad for America, awful for Democrats and downright deadly to progressives — especially feminists. (She may know that herself; it may explain her reluctance to prepare for a 2016 run.)


Here, in an easy clip-and-take-to-the-primaries nutshell, is the non-vast-rightie-conspiracy case against Hillary:


1. Zero record of accomplishment.

Since 2009 we've seen what happens when we elect a president with charisma but minus a resume: weakness, waffling, national decline. Obama's signature/single accomplishment, the Affordable Care Act, embodies design-by-committee conception and autopilot execution.

Hillary's admirers have conflated her impressive list of jobs with actually having gotten things done. When you scratch the surface, however, it's hard to avoid the conclusion that the woman has done little more than warm a series of comfy leather desk chairs. How has this career politician changed Americans' lives? Not in the least.


No doubt, Hillary knows her way around the corridors of power: First Lady, Senator from New York, p**********l candidate, Secretary of State. Nice resume, but what did she do with all her jobs? Not much.


First Lady Ladybird Johnson led a highway beautification campaign that literally changed America's landscape for the better. Betty Ford courageously exposed herself as an alcoholic, serving as a role model by publicly seeking treatment. In terms of achievement, Hillary Clinton's political life peaked in 1993 with "HillaryCare," a botched attempt at healthcare reform that failed because no one, including liberals, agreed with the core mission of what liberal Democratic Senator Robert Byrd called "a very complex, very expensive, very little understood piece of legislation": federal subsidies for wildly profitable private insurance corporations (sound familiar?).


After sleazing her way into the Capitol as an out-of-state carpetbagger — New Yorkers still remember — Senator Clinton wiled away the early 2000's as a slacker Senator. This, remember, was while Bush was pushing through his radical right agenda: the Patriot Act, wars, c**ps, drones, torture, renditions and so on.


While Bush was running roughshod, Hillary was meek and acquiescent.


Clinton's legislative proposals were trivial and few. Her bargaining sk**ls were so lousy that she couldn't find cosponsors for her tiny-bore bills — even fellow Democrats snubbed the former First Lady on stuff like increasing bennies for members of the Coast Guard. "Senator Clinton is right when she claims to be the experienced candidate," Adam Hamft wrote for HuffPo during the 2008 primaries, "although it's not the experience she would like us to believe. It's a track record of legislative failure and futility."


Hillary cheerleaders brag that she logged nearly a million miles of air travel as Secretary of State. "She reminded the world that Woody Allen was right even when it comes to diplomacy:80 percent of success really is simply showing up," Megan Garber cheered in The Atlantic(what is it about that rag and Hillary?).


What success?


The best case I could find for Hillary as kickass StateSec comes courtesy of Policy Mic, which I hope is on her payroll given how much they suck up to her. An article titled "5 Top Highlights in Hillary Clinton's Secretary of State Tenure" cites "People-to-People Diplomacy" (all that travel), "The Importance of Economics" ("helping U.S. companies win business overseas"), "Restoring American Credibility" ("outreach to [the military junta in] Burma," "brokering a ceasefire between Hamas and Israel," and "coordination with Egyptian President Mohammed Morsi will likely give the U.S. greater leverage to pursue a robust peace process in 2013" — but "likely" didn't pan out…why doesn't Mo return my calls anymore?).


"Rock star diplomat," as The New York Times Magazine called her? Hardly.


As Stephen M. Walt notes in Foreign Policy, "she's hardly racked up any major achievements…She played little role in extricating us from Iraq, and it is hard to see her fingerprints on the U.S. approach to Afghanistan. She has done her best to smooth the troubled relationship with Pakistan, but anti-Americanism remains endemic in that country and it hardly looks like a success story at this point...She certainly helped get tougher sanctions on Iran, but the danger of war still looms and there's been no breakthrough there either…Needless to say, she has done nothing to advance the cause of Israeli-Palestinian peace or even to halt Israel's increasingly naked land grab there." (Talks with Iran began after Clinton quit.)


Yeah, she's been busy. But she has little to show for her time in office — she works dumb, not smart. At least with Obama, 2008 v**ers saw potential. Hillary has had 20 years to shine. If she hasn't gotten anything accomplished in all that time, with all that power, why should we think she'll make a great president?


2. She's a terrible role model for women.

A woman president is two centuries overdue. It's embarrassing that we're behind such forward-looking nations as Pakistan in this respect. But our first female leader should not be Hillary Clinton.


I'm not rehashing the oft-stated argument that she should have divorced Bill post-Monica: I'm 99% sure they have an open marriage and anyway, the monogamist demand that jilted spouses DTMFA because, just because, is stupid.


The real issue is that Hillary married her way into power. Sorry, Hillarites: there is nothing new here, no cracked glass ceilings. Owing everything you have to your husband is at least as old as Muriel Humphrey, who succeeded Senator Hubert after he died in 1978. In a nation with more than 150 million women, it ought to be possible to find a president who got there on her own merits.


Remember, it's not like Hillary did much with the remarkable opportunities she was given.


3. She's kind of dumb.

In 2003, Senator Clinton cast the most important v**e of her life, in favor of invading Iraq. Not only was it morally unconscionable — Bush ginned up the war from thin air, Iraq had nothing to do with 9/11 and there was neither evidence nor proof that Saddam had WMDs — her war authorization v**e was politically i***tic.


Hillary lost the 2008 Democratic nomination to Obama (who, though v****g six times for war funding, and not in the Senate in 2003, had criticized that "dumb war") due to that v**e.


Though Clinton has never apologized for pandering to post-9/11 yellow-ribbons-all-over-the-car militarism (which is also stupid), her lame excuses in 2008 (she claimed she "thought it was a v**e to put inspectors back in" even though it was called the "Authorization for Use of Military Force Against Iraq Resolution of 2002") indicate that she knew she'd blown it.


Also, the fact that she thought anyone would buy such ridiculous lies further indicates less than awesome intelligence.


Let's give Hillary the benefit of the doubt: we'll assume she wasn't so breathtakingly stupid as to think invading Iraq was moral or legal. Even so, her pandering betrays poor political calculus.


It should have been obvious — it was to me — that the U.S. would lose in Iraq. Given Clinton's options at the time (run for president a year later in 2004, ree******n in 2006, or 2008), she was an i***t to think that her v**e to authorize what would soon turn into an unpopular war wouldn't decimate her support among the Democratic party's liberal antiwar base.


Having a cynical political operator as president is bad. But I'll take a smart cynic over a dumb panderer.
