"In what appears to be a first for a serious presidential contender, Hillary Clinton’s campaign is going after five comedians who made fun of the former Secretary of State in standup skits at a popular Hollywood comedy club.

A video of the short performance, which is less than three minutes, is posted on the website of the renowned club, Laugh Factory, and the Clinton campaign has tried to censor it. Besides demanding that the video be taken down, the Clinton campaign has demanded the personal contact information of the performers that appear in the recording. This is no laughing matter for club owner Jamie Masada, a comedy guru who opened Laugh Factory more than three decades ago and has been instrumental in launching the careers of many famous comics. “They threatened me,” Masada told Judicial Watch. “I have received complains before but never a call like this, threatening to put me out of business if I don’t cut the video.”"

FWIW, I watched the video in question. It wasn't particularly funny/entertaining - but I'm sure that it's getting LOTS more attention now than it otherwise would have!!

Caution: according to the article linked here, it wasn't HILLARY who complained, it was some unnamed person CLAIMING to be connected to her campaign.

It wouldn't be the first time someone yanked the chain of the owner of a venue like that, and pretended to be someone they weren't. it's also quite possible that someone lower in the actual Clinton Campaign staff, trying to make a name for themselves, decided to go on the attack without permission.

That sort of thing has happened to lots of candidates in the past as well. The most famous instance of overzealous campaigners, was the Watergate and associated messes that sank Nixon's Presidency. This isn't that bad, just rather idiotic, if it actually happened.

Oh I enjoyed that video.
" Linebacker for TJ Max " rofl

Anyway, Hillary better get use to it.
All Presidential candidates & Presidents & even their families have been slammed.

It wasn't until Obama, this "super sensitivity " or "It's anti patriotic" crap started.

Well it's all about the image. The Clintons have had mud thrown on them for decades, and they conduct themselves like mafia kingpins. The charges never stick. Witnesses don't testify. Aides take the rap, shut their mouths, and do the time. In extreme cases, they simply commit suicide or maybe meet with an unfortunate fate.

Biden isn't running because it was reported he got a phone call from the Clinton campaign. If you run, we'll ruin you and your family was the alleged message.

Elizabeth Warren. Where is she in the race? How about Al Gore? You think Clinton has any dirt to keep him out of the White House and on the lecture circuit?

She has leveraged Debbie Wasserman Schultz and the entire DNC to get her the coronation she wants as the first woman president, and she will NOT be denied. Anyone not with the program is to be crushed now or later by the Clinton machine. You can bet that will even include donors to Bernie's campaign.

The dragquean of mudslinging, is all butthurt that mud got slung back.
:laughing:

Imagine that...


During the 2008 campaign for the
dum-o-cratic nomination, Hilary is the same mudslinging tard, who referred to her opponent as "Obama bin Laden".

All that is possible, all be it factually unsupported. If you actually delude yourself that Biden COULD be thus blackmailed, then you wouldn't have wanted to see him run anyway.

Anyone remember way back in the eighties, when a rich independent ran for the Presidency? Ross Perot? Remember how he got put of the race for a while, then jumped back in as the election approached? Remember what he CLAIMED was why he did that? He said that someone had threatened to falsely expose his daughter as a lesbian, and so he stopped campaigning. He never explained why he'd stopped giving a damn about is daughter and came back, but that was when I realized I couldn't vote for him myself. Anyone who CAN be blackmailed or manipulated so easily, would be a useless fool as a President.

The thing is, that's all standard American politics. Democrat, Republican, Tea Party, you name it. People greedy for money and power will do all sorts of things to get what they want, and most of them wont be nice.

Doesn't make it right, but it's important to realize that you aren't going to get a morally clean politician into office just because you vote against Hillary. You'll just get one who's DIFFERENTLY defective.

So what it comes down to, is what KIND of dirty, amoral manipulative fact twister do you want running the country?

I wonder when Cris Crocker is going to post a youtube video demanding people "leave Hillary alone!"

That would be awesome...for a couple of minutes.

there is a article out there about how she treated secrete service people assigned to her and how she treated the regular white house staff in general...belittled , degraded, insulted them.. constantly.. real b****. Everyone hated her.. cringed when she was walking around.. tried to avoid her at all costs.

For that reason alone I'm not voting for her... Because that is who I think the '"real" Hillary is.
