A Brief Thought: Madness, Mendacity & Motive - Link

The most common question I get asked by well-meaning liberals who only read the headlines is "why would the Democratic Party push a garbage conspiracy theory they know isn't true?" This Brief Thought answers that query.

C.R.E.A.M Part Three: A Study & Review of Clinton Cash (Documentary)

Hello and welcome back to our third and final installment of our study and review of the shocking, controversial documentary – Clinton Cash.

All the way back in part one of C.R.E.A.M., we talked briefly about author and Clinton Cash narrator Peter Schweizer’s unfortunate affliction with hardcore Republicanism; that peculiar, withering disease that repeatedly prevents conservatives from accepting a free, political “layup” when dealing with the Clintons, in favor of attempting to land a 360 degree, tomahawk jam for the knockout blow. As I pointed out then, Schweizer was guilty (at times) of drawing wildly incriminating conclusions from evidence that certainly did warrant further scrutiny and definitely seemed to suggest the Clinton Foundation was the center of a massive, global influence trading scam – but didn’t actually definitively prove what the narrator claimed it had.

In part two of C.R.E.A.M. this was far less of an issue as Schweizer largely stuck to the facts and encouraged the audience to draw their own conclusions; like any responsible journalist or documentary filmmaker is supposed to do. I will honestly confess that the author’s ability to “pitch a clean game” in this portion of the program actually surprised me a little bit; particularly when Schweizer started to unravel Hillary Clinton’s apparent hypocrisy on climate catastrophe in light of speeches commissioned by banks invested in the Keystone XL pipeline. As a result, I genuinely feel that Clinton Cash’s investigations into the debacle of rebuilding Haiti and the role Bill Clinton’s speaking fees may have played in Hillary’s State Department acting in Swedish telecom corporation Ericsson’s favor – represent must-see viewing for people looking to untangle the web of bribery, deception and “charitable” donations involved here.

Unfortunately, in the closing thirty minutes of the film however; Schweizer once again takes the bait and on several occasions he does everything in his power to ruin a perfectly good argument by suggesting that the Clintons are obviously guilty of serious crimes without effectively sealing the deal. Naturally, a number of these “overreach” incidents have been seized upon by “media” loyal to the Clintons in a widespread effort to discredit what is otherwise the most fundamentally damning documentary (and book) about Hillary Clinton in existence.
