Ever the Political Pragmatist, Bill Clinton Willing to Sell Out His Presidency for Hillary’s "Former President Bill Clinton acknowledged on Wednesday that an anti-crime crackdown he pushed in 1994 went too far, and said he now supports his wife Hillary’s plans to reverse some of those justice policies.
"Bill Clinton signed into law a crime bill that imposed tougher sentences, put thousands of more police on the streets and helped fund the building of extra prisons.
"But the era of mass incarceration is now being questioned because of the continuing high proportion of Americans – especially black males – who are in prison.
"The anti-crime legislation was known for its federal “three strikes” provision that sent violent offenders to prison for life. The bill was backed by congressional Republicans and hailed at the time as a success for Clinton.
"But the former president told CNN’s Christiane Amanpour that it was imperfect." Stephen Kruiser
A Mother's Day gift from Hillary "Still searching for that perfect gift for mom for Mother's Day? Well, do I have one for you! A former First Mom and now a wannabe First Grandmother, Hillary Clinton herself is willing to call your mom on her special day to wish her the best. And no, she won't charge her standard $300,000 speaking fee; she--or her campaign--just wants your name, phone number and e mail address for a chance to win "a Mother's Day call from Hillary"," "a Mother's Day gift to remember."
A Mother’s Day call from Hillary?
Hillary Clinton’s betting that America is moving left ..."Hillary Clinton is doing the country a great service.
"By making it clear she is going to run for president as an unapologetic left-liberal — with emphasis on the “left” — she has made sure that the 2016 election will be exactly the referendum on America’s future it ought to be." . . .John Podhoretz
