Previously unpublished correspondence between Hillary Clinton and the late left-wing organizer Saul Alinsky reveal new details about her relationship with the controversial Chicago activist and shed light on her early ideological development.
Clinton met with Alinsky several times in 1968 while writing a Wellesley college thesis about his theory of community organizing.
Clinton's relationship with Alinsky, and her support for his philosophy, continued for several years after she entered Yale law school in 1969, two letters obtained by the Washington Free Beacon show.
The letters obtained by the Free Beacon are part of the archives for the Industrial Areas Foundation, a training center for community organizers founded by Alinsky, which are housed at the University of Texas at Austin.
The letters also suggest that Alinsky, who died in 1972, had a deeper influence on Clinton's early political views than previously known.
She hasn't changed at all.
Of course not. The chief lawyer who worked on the Watergate Senate hearing committee (where Hillary was employed) said later that if there had been any justice in the world she would have been disbarred for her behavior there. Why would we think anything would change?

She “agreed with some of Alinsky’s ideas,” Clinton wrote in her first memoir, but the two had a “fundamental disagreement” over his anti-establishment tactics. Hillary, like Obama anything that comes out of their mouths cannot be believed.
I suspect that, both Hillary and Obama disagreed with anti-establishment tactics since both got inside the system they detested and gnawed away at it from within. The results are evident today.

As attorney for the strip club owner, Davis was just "taking one for the team" when he grudgingly endured a near-naked lap dance in a pitch-black, curtained-off room.

So a guy is chased out of a political campaign because he took a lap dance 25 years ago???
Geez, Sounds like someone didn't like the cut of his suit or the sound of his politics and stirred up a psychodrama...
Amazing how we do things like this and gave nowhere man a free pass on his lack of credentials and his well documented use of drugs.

So a single guy goes to a strip club and gets a lap dance. The shame of it all, I bet the next story is he was having dirty thoughts during his lap dance about practicing for making babies!!! So I get it clearly, going to strip club and looking at pretty girls is bad, but, as in the case of abortion Debbie, sleeping around like a tramp and having an abortion is ok cause its her body. I get it...

As an attorney, I should think he'd want to be well-informed of the services his client was providing.

Unmarried, wasn't arrested for doing anything illegal. How is this even a story 15 years later?

It is important because now we know that you have to go all the way to the outskirts of Coffeyville, KS to find a stripper who would service a lawyer.
That, and anything to tie him to Sebelius. And if getting drunk and boney at a client's business he represents and then couldn't get his client off on charges and business closed down, well bonus points. For good measure, how far down the list is Coffeyville for reputation of good looking strippers? Client had them down for a good time, and client gets caught peddling meth...wonder if they were having a really good time. That all may stick in Kansas.
