Hillary Clinton Champion of Middle Class Families? Don't Make Me Laugh

You have to hand it to Hillary Clinton; the woman has chutzpah. Her theme as she kicks off her campaign is that she wants to be the champion of middle class families. That's rich. Of course, she could start by promising tax cuts, but that won't happen. Worse yet is the very hypocrisy of such a mantra-something only a Clinton could get away with.

This is the woman who, along with her husband, accepts millions from foreign countries including those like Saudi Arabia, who have abysmal human rights records-including when she was secretary of state.

This is the woman who has been going around the country making one speech after another to the tune of $250,000-300,000 per speech including universities like UCLA, supposedly hard-strapped for cash and raising tuition. Not only that, but a Clinton speaking invitation had to include private jet travel, a 5-star hotel room with all the amenities, and many other perks and specifications.

Remember when Mitt Romney was running for president? He never could shake off the charge and the perception that he was wooden, rich, and out-of-touch with the average Joe. That describes Hillary Clinton to a tee. Yet, she had the effrontery to tell an interviewer that when she and Bill left the White House, they were flat broke.

If this were anybody else, the whole country would be laughing her off the stage. But this is Hillary Clinton. Go figure.
