It was around the time of the 2000 election that my faith in her started to unwind. This is because since the Clinton's were still in power after the Supreme Court said to stop counting the votes, Bill Clinton as the acting President, could have done something. He didn't.
I knew before the planes hit the building that Bill and Hillary Clinton betrayed this Country. Hillary's absolute defeat is bitter sweet for America. Ridding ourselves of the Clinton's will be a step in the right direction.
We need to get her out of the Senate next. Then consider criminal investigations in regards to over 50 deaths directly related to them.
Can you find any clips of Hillary Clinton demanding that the votes be counted in Florida after the 2000 Presidential election, after the Supreme Court ruled to stop counting the votes? If so, please post it as a video response to this video. Thanks.
And THOSE chickens came back to roost........
