Many questions not asked

Once a politician has achieved elitist status, some questions stop coming from supportive Big Media or from those too busy cowering or kissing up.

Hillary Clinton knows some challenges will never come her way. That’s why I have come up with a few questions of my own. These are accompanied by the kind of response one could expect from HRC.

Sorta.

Question #1: Candidate Clinton, it is common knowledge in your younger days, you admired the works of left-wing political activist Saul Alinsky. What is the extent of Alinsky’s revolutionary influence on you today as a candidate for president of the United States?

Clinton: Who? (sideways consultation with lawyerly advisor) Oh, that guy. Pshaw! (dismissive wave of hand) You wouldn’t ask a question like that unless you’re bigoted, narrow-minded, and reactionary.

(One of the Alinsky techniques is to isolate an opponent through accusation, name-calling, lies, and social detachment.)

Question #2: Mrs. Clinton, you haven’t held a salaried office in nearly four years, yet you are fabulously wealthy. From where does all that money come, considering you claim you and Mr. Bill were broke when you left the White House?

Clinton: The reports of our wealth are greatly exaggerated. See this pantsuit? Why, I expect to wear it a second time!

(Numerous sources put the Clintons’ worth at over $100 million.)

Question #3: Hillary, Lefties talk a lot about white privilege. You are white, went to exclusive schools, have other people’s money to burn, and spend your life judging others. Are you an elitist?

Clinton: Of course not! I just happen to have a lot of stuff and am right about everything. It is a tremendous burden.

(Hillary, of course, personifies what liberals condemn.)

Question #4: Mrs. Clinton, you claim to be down with the middle class, all sympathetic and such concerning jobs, homeownership, college costs, etc. Tell me, Hillary, when was the last time you drove yourself to work like regular folks?

Clinton: (shocked) How ridiculous! I am a public official campaigning for the highest office in the world! Of course, others drive me!

Question #5: But isn’t that the very definition of a limousine liberal? Don’t you want to decide how others drive while being chauffeured yourself?

Clinton: Others may cause climate change due to carbon emissions, but not me! I don’t allow it!

(You know how it is when it comes to missing the point. Just understand Clinton is a limousine liberal. In other words, she states what others should do while doing as she pleases in the Al Gore, Barack Obama tradition.)

Question #6: Candidate Clinton, considering all the tough times you have had in your own life, will you be conscientious with Americans‘ money?

Clinton: Of course I will! Why the first thing I plan to do is raise taxes on those making more money than I think they should. I call it social justice when successful folks are forced to pay for everything.

Question #7: What if there isn’t enough money to pay for your social extravagance?

Clinton: How can there not be when I will raise taxes on everybody who hasn‘t paid me off?

(FYI, when libs are fishing for a tax increase on successful people, they will progressively lower the figure for those considered too wealthy. This plateau for acceptable wealth typically goes down after the election.)

Question #8: Mrs. Clinton, why do you support an open border?

Clinton: Why, we need to help the children! For the good of democracy! For cheap labor! Otherwise, how could I get people to clean my mansion?

(Footnote: Clinton, Obama and the Left are using illegal immigration to build a constituency they need for political survival. A bonus is the erosion of law and order.)

Question #9: Do you provide ObamaCare for your employees?

Clinton: Are you kidding? Do you know how much that costs?

(Footnote: Health insurance carriers are fleeing ObamaCare because they are going broke. Recent casualty: Aetna).

Question #10: Will you, as president, morph ObamaCare into single-payer and wasn’t that the plan all along?

Clinton: Of course! Don’t you pay attention to how we do things?

(Sidebar: With single-payer the bureaucracies will control the cost of premiums and how much health care you can have and when you can get it, as in socialist countries.)

Perfect.
