Hillary Clinton On President Obama: "He Doesn't Know. He Doesn't Care. He Doesn't Have A Clue."
[DCWhispers] An oddly confident and verbally aggressive Hillary Clinton was said to have made several less than supportive personal remarks about her former boss, President Barack Obama, while the current Democratic 2016 presidential front-runner was partying the night away at the millionaire's summer paradise that is Martha's Vineyard.

"He Doesn't Know. He Doesn't Care. He Doesn't Have A Clue."

So said the former Obama Secretary of State speaking of the current president to a gathering of longtime friends and political supporters. Mrs. Clinton's mood was described as, "upbeat and defiant" as she and Mr. Clinton drank and danced among those they deem worthy of their trust. (And just enough Obama-friendly figures to ensure her words got back to Obama himself sooner rather than later.)

President Obama was the target of more than a few jokes that night as the gathering grew increasingly boisterous and the divide between the Obama and Clinton machines that much more pronounced.

Would the would-be-president's newly discovered confidence regarding her email scandal be an indication she feels the administration will never allow her to be significantly punished? If so, that would likely indicate the Clintons have communicated to the Obama White House that one will not be allowed to fall without the other.

Perhaps that was the true motivation for the odd meeting between a former and current President of the United States on a Martha's Vineyard golf course last week?

#2  The entire Kabuki dance of the Chinese water torture/death of a thousand cuts slow demolition of Hildabeast is being orchestrated out of the WH.

If I were her, I'd be calling BS on the entire process and let her real feelings about the POTUS be known. After all he killed her ambitions with a bunch of dirty tricks in 2008.

#3  I say again that as an Anti-American Amerikan = anti-US US OWG Globalist POTUS Bammer is doing his thing intentionally.

He has been raised, mentored + groomed, etc. to do so since his childhood - HE IS BUT ONE TOOL IN A LARGER OR MUCH BIGGER MACHINE.

In my own way, I feel sorry for him - not unlike the late, unhappy, Iff-I-had-a-Choice-I-wouldn't-be-a Musician Michael Jackson, his life was pre-determined for him.

#4  The recent Martha's Vineyard golf outing didn't go as well as hoped for ?

#5  I doubt Hillary said much. This is just another desperate campaign trail balloon to see if she can run against Obama/Biden as an anti-establishment. Similar earlier when she attempted to run as middle class commoner with all the same money worries as the rest of America. The comments are true about Obama I just doubt Hillary actually said them to anyone outside of a campaign strategy session.

#6  "When your enemy is in the process of destroying himself/herself, stay out of his way."

I suspect Bill and Hilda know a great deal about Obama and vice versa.

Oh, so NOW she gets all honest and sh*t

#9  "He Doesn't Know. He Doesn't Care. He Doesn't Have A Clue."

In other words, he's suffering from General Beltway Disease (GBD), an affliction that effects many regardless of party or title.

I think Hillary knows her goose is about cooked and is planning on taking Obama et. al. down with her.

Couldn't get DoJ or Holder to move on anything or anybody for the past 6 years. All of a sudden DoJ and the Bureau are totally energized. Looks a bit suspicious indeed.

#15  All of a sudden DoJ and the Bureau are totally energized

If this gets into a serious p*ssing match, the Clinton's are well known for having multiple contingency plans. Often with extremely damaging results for their opponents.

She hasn't forgotten the 2008 Axelrod, Jarrett and Plouffe foibles. Bet the scouring of info began about then.

#16  ...and now for the really important stuff. I made a gazillion dollars an hour on Google.

#17  Given that the WH has alienated about all the pillars of states and can only rely upon some oligarchs and academia to back him in the struggle, this could be interesting. Hasn't been such fun since the Stalin-Trotsky hack out on the Left. Well, maybe that last politburo meeting with Beria.

Joe Biden Meets with Liz Warren as Clinton Campaign Melts Down
[PJ Media] As buzzards circled around Hillary Clinton's dying campaign over the weekend, Vice President Joe Biden met with left-wing darling Sen. Elizabeth Warren (aka Fauxcahontas) in his residence at the Naval Observatory.

CNN reported that Warren and Biden "discussed economic policy during a meeting that lasted about two hours."

A person familiar with the discussion told CNN that "the presidential campaign or Biden's future" was not the focus of the discussion.

Uh-huh. He singled out Senator Warren to have a private meeting with him on economics -- just out of the blue for no particular reason whatsoever.
The Obama 'A-Team' Biden and Fauxcahontas ticket takes shape.

#1  It's going to be awkward having Slow Joe as VP under two different presidents.

And isn't Fauxcahontas part black?

#2  1/32 fake Cherokee.
Posted by: Raj || 08/25/2015 16:20 Comments || Top||

#3  So her dad claimed he was 1/16th Cherokee?

How far back does Warren have family members claiming to be part Indian? Plymouth Rock?
