WILSON: Look for more half-truths, lies and innuendos about Hillary Clinton

“If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it.” — Joseph Goebbels

By George Wilson |  The right wing machine has been repeating lies, half truths, and innuendos about Hillary Clinton so much that the above quote is true as it applies to accusations against Hillary for many people. Look for this to continue in the days ahead with talk radio, Fox news and “Trump tweets.”

00_icon_wilsonNow for some truth telling from no other than the Clinton’s old nemesis, Kenneth Starr, who was  special council for the investigation of President Bill Clinton.

In November 1998, Kenneth Starr told the House Judiciary Committee that, after years of investigating all accusations, he had “…nothing negative to report about either Bill or Hillary Clinton regarding Whitewater, the FBI files, or the White House travel office.”

When asked on what date he had exonerated the Clintons on the travel-office issue, he replied that there was no such date because there had never been any information implicating them in the first place. Remember the right wingers were spending tons of air time on this issue.

The Republican propaganda machine has now gotten into the email controversy and of course numerous hearings on Benghazi. It has been a huge waste of taxpayers’ money that has yielded nothing of consequence. I’m sure they will keep repeating the same old lies.

Let’s examine one more significant fact:

Clinton and her husband have released their tax returns going back to 1977.The soon-to-be Republican nominee, Donald Trump, said recently, that “…voters don’t have a right to see his tax returns.” When pressed about on the tax rate he himself pays, he stated “none of your business.” What is he hiding?

Finally, we need a person who can understand and handle the growing pressure from globalization, social fragmentation, and a backlash from those who think they have lost out. Hillary Clinton is that person.
