Hillary Clinton “Very Disappointed” In Donald Trump

FINALLY SPEAKING TO THE MEDIA, DEMOCRATIC FRONTRUNNER RIPS TOP TWO GOP CANDIDATES

|| By FITSNEWS || The first stop on Hillary Clinton‘s mainstream media “glasnost” tour?  Left-leaning CNN.

Shocker, right?

In an interview scheduled to air this week on the network, Clinton was given the opportunity to rail against her leading “Republican” rivals.  She took it, too.

First, Clinton said she was “very disappointed” by recent remarks from GOP presidential candidate Donald Trump on the issue of immigration.

She also chided the “Republican” party for failing to condemn Trump – demonstrating what she referred to as a “spectrum of hostility” toward immigrants.

Specifically, Clinton went after GOP frontrunner Jeb Bush – accusing him of hardening his stance in an effort to appeal to “Republican” primary voters.

“He doesn’t believe in a path to citizenship,” Clinton told CNN’s Brianna Keilar.  “If he did at one time, he no longer does.”

We don’t either.

We believe in pathways to status – and we flatly rebuke the folly of mass deportation – but citizenship is for citizens, not illegal immigrants.

Anyway, Clinton’s interview is the first of several she’s conducting in an effort to dispel the notion that she’s holding the press at bay.

Which she was …

We’ll let you know if she ever gets a hardball question related to one of her many, serious scandals …

Anyone that is born here is considered an American Citizen. The law should be amended to only allow that if both parents are here legally. The problem then arises what happens if a citizen is impregnated by a non citizen outside of the United States. There are no simple solutions but what we have in place isn’t right.

Speak D Truth July 7, 2015 at 7:27 pm

The answer would be to deport them and their parents if they are here illegally. If only one parent is here illegally then the legal parent could either stay here and wait on the illegals to immigrate legally or immigrate to the country where the other parent and child are.
Also, not all immigrants are brown as you call them. You inject race and ethnicity in to a conversation that isn’t about that, it’s about nationality. British citizens could come here illegally or come here legally and overstay their visas.

Ok, lets round up British babies, put them in a shipping container, and drop them over the Canadian border (part of the Commonwealth you Know). Either the Canadians will save them or they will die sinless, Either way not our problem.

Speak D Truth July 7, 2015 at 7:45 pm

Are you proposing that we have open borders that are uncontrolled. That we allow people to cross at will without regard for disease, terrorism, national security, or crime? You probably also believe that these people show be provided with government benefits and assistance at taxpayers expense.

Mary July 7, 2015 at 7:57 pm

Oh, you don’t want to go there with me, because what I actually think is all you right wing nuts are going to hell. You would happily send an innocent child, born in this country no less, to a foreign nation to potentially starve because he or she might cost you a few bucks. And, I’ll bet you sit on your ass in a pew every Sunday and pretend you are a Christian. What total hypocrites you people are.

Speak D Truth July 7, 2015 at 9:40 pm

NO. it would be to encourage their parents to follow the rule of law when immigrating to this country. What is Mexico’s policy if a child is born there to illegal immigrants?

Rocky July 8, 2015 at 12:15 am

Before you go down that path. So my wife works with a guy who escaped Cuba, and took a boat to Mexico. As an illegal immigrant to Mexico he was put in jail. For THREE days. Then he was taken to the border and walked through the border crossing.

Speak D Truth July 8, 2015 at 7:45 am

So he is of Cuban descent. The current law is “get here, stay here.” That may change once we normalize relations with Cuba but for now it is legal.

Mary July 8, 2015 at 11:14 am

What if I don’t care what Mexico’s policies on children are. I am concerned with the child. So I guess you and the Mexicans can both go to hell. God probably will not look too kindly on the “but Mexico does it” defense. I suppose there will be something to wash your hands in once the child is across the border.

“Then he will say to those on his left, ‘Depart from me, you cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels. For I was hungry and you gave me no food, I was thirsty and you gave me no drink, I was a stranger and you did not welcome me, naked and you did not clothe me, sick and in prison and you did not visit me.’ Then they also will answer, saying, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry or thirsty or a stranger or naked or sick or in prison, and did not minister to you?’ Then he will answer them, saying, ‘Truly, I say to you, as you did not do it to one of the least of these, you did not do it to me.’ And these will go away into eternal punishment, but the righteous into eternal life.”

Speak D Truth July 8, 2015 at 11:37 am

Hopefully, The illegally immigrant that murdered this lady will go to hell. The liberal Sheriff that let him go should be prosecuted just like Jimmy Metts was (long overdue for Jimmy).
The city and it’s “Sanctuary City” mentality share responsibility.
Obama and his catch and release policies bear responsibility.
I guess you failed to read my comments on children that are born here with illegal immigrant parents. If one parent is legal then the child gets citizenship and the illegal parent gets deported. That is the current law but it is not enforced. Both parents are illegal then the child retains the citizenship of his parents and does not receive US citizenship. That is not the current law but should be. That would prevent border crossings for the sake of gaining citizenship.
You quote the bible but you selected the wrong passage. Try looking at the passages that require men to live in organized society’s,establish rules (laws) for the governance of man and for men to follow those rules.
Then call upon the illegal immigrants to comply with God’s word and what you view as my refusal to follow God’s word will no longer be an issue.

Mary July 8, 2015 at 12:36 pm

I am not concerned with the illegal immigrant that murdered the lady. He will answer for his crime now and then he will answer to God. God is always just, mans is not.

As for calling on people not to immigrate from one area to another, because it violates man’s law, I am not going to do that. I am not certain of the correct answer and the justice of our law. God drew no lines in the sands of the earth. Christ himself immigrated to Egypt fleeing oppression. My ancestors immigrated to his land fleeing oppression. Starving desperately poor people will do whatever it takes to better their lives, and Christ commands us to “welcome strangers, feed the hungry, and treat the sick.”

Sunday pew Christians ignore most of the teachings of Christ, when it comes to the treatment of others. They like their money too much. Paying for the beach house and the expensive car is more important than saving starving people. I guess occasionally one must ask themselves, who is more evil. The guy who shoots a girl in a park; or the guy who allows 20 children to starve when he could prevent it. Consequently I suggest we all pray for mercy and not justice, for “it may be that in the eyes of heaven you are more worthless than thousands like that immigrant child.”.

Speak D Truth July 8, 2015 at 12:43 pm

It was a call for men to live in organized societies, establish laws and abide by them. Illegals by the very nature of being illegal have failed to do that. If they would follow the law, and God’s word, then the other issues would not exist.
Quit thumping your because the Bible is exposing your hypocrisy. The only way to kill the problem is at the root and illegal immigration is the root of the problem.
Mexico is not Cuba. The people are not oppressed and could push for reforms that would better their way of life in Mexico. Cubans would be murdered by their government for doing that. That is why we have different policies for each country.
I assume that you think we should open our borders to all people of the Muslim faith without regard for their health or political ideology as well.

Mary July 8, 2015 at 1:45 pm

I guess you would need to be a lot more specific as to the bible verses you assert make illegal immigration a sin. I cannot address an abstract.

But you still have not answered my question.

In the eyes of God, who is more evil, the man who kills an innocent person with a gun, or a the man who allows 20 children to die of starvation when he could prevent it?

Speak D Truth July 8, 2015 at 8:42 pm

That would depend on whether or not the act was intentional. Your question is also invalid because you do not know if the child would starve if he was repatriated to his parents country of citizenship.

Rocky July 8, 2015 at 12:14 am

And a bar Friday and Saturday nights – checking out the young things. Yeah!!!!

If an American woman gets impregnated by a illegal immigrant mongrel, Can we forcibly cut the fetus out and send it to wherever its immigrant mongrel father came from? That would save a lot of time and taxpayer money, not to mention shipping costs.

Reply
Speak D Truth July 7, 2015 at 9:58 pm

No, forcible cutting it out would be immoral and probably kill the innocent child. That would be wrong. The best solution would be to allow the mother and child to remain but force the father to repatriate to his home country.

The democrats removed the word illegal and replaced it with undocumented to soften everyone’s perception of illegal immigration. They will now remove the word undocumented and leave only immigrant. They don’t want people to discern between illegal and legal immigration because that will thwart their plan for an executive order on amnesty. IMHO this is a lot more important issue than the Confederate Flag.

Point of order or Points of Order. Of the ten trillion deficit you speak of three trillion is attributable to the Iraq and Afghanistan wars. Second, the President has no ability to spend without the Congress, and Republicans have been in control of the House since 2009. Third, under Obama the annual deficit has been dropping each year. This year it will be almost 2/3rs lower than the last Bush annual deficit..474 billion vrs. 1,413 billion.

“The problem is,
is that the way Bush has done it over the last eight years is to take out a
credit card from the Bank of China in the name of our children, driving up our
national debt from $5 trillion for the first 42 presidents — #43 added $4
trillion by his lonesome, so that we now have over $9 trillion of debt that we
are going to have to pay back — $30,000 for every man, woman and child. That’s
irresponsible. It’s unpatriotic.” – Barack Obama, July 3, 2008

You see, ISIS is in Iraq, and the Iranians send para-military forces and command and control support to combat ISIS. “Syria is the most violent threat that we have (f)aced since Hitler” – again – your assuming of course that ISIS has in fact invaded and conquered France, Belgium, Netherlands, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Greece, all of North Africa, Poland, Hungary, Austria, Norway, Denmark, Belarus, Ukraine, Baltic States, Bulgaria, Romania and is marching on the door to Moscow. Additionally, your assuming that ISIS submarines patrol the eastern seaboard of the United States, and Canada, as well as South America, the Gulf of Mexico and the North Sea. But yeah, I guess I see your point? “I think the majority of Americans feel that more needs to be done to protect our country from this threat” – apparently you are also mistaken.

You act like he is the only one. Every one of those so called “undocumented” immigrants committed a criminal act when they broke the law to come here. They should have applied and immigrated here legally. The 9/11 terrorists were here illegally, by virtue of overstaying their visas. Do you wish that we had deported them? Some Hispanics are illegally here as part of the Mexican drug cartels, should they be here? Legal immigration exists to make sure that these types of people are denied entry. Many illegal immigrants would qualify for US Citizenship or work visas but they chose to break the law to come here. They should note rewarded with citizenship for that. They should be required to apply and follow the steps that are in place to become legal citizens or to obtain work visas.

Then all the elders of Israel gathered themselves together, and came to Samuel unto Ramah,

And said unto him, Behold, thou art old, and thy sons walk not in thy ways: now make us a king to judge us like all the nations.
But the thing displeased Samuel, when they said, Give us a king to judge us. And Samuel prayed unto the Lord.

And the Lord said unto Samuel, Hearken unto the voice of the people in all that they say unto thee: for they have not rejected thee, but they have rejected me, that I should not reign over them.

According to all the works which they have done since the day that I brought them up out of Egypt even unto this day, wherewith they have forsaken me, and served other gods, so do they also unto thee.
Now therefore hearken unto their voice: howbeit yet protest solemnly unto them, and shew them the manner of the king that shall reign over them.
And Samuel told all the words of the Lord unto the people that asked of him a king.
And he said, This will be the manner of the king that shall reign over you: He will take your sons, and appoint them for himself, for his chariots, and to be his horsemen; and some shall run before his chariots.
And he will appoint him captains over thousands, and captains over fifties; and will set them to ear his ground, and to reap his harvest, and to make his instruments of war, and instruments of his chariots.
And he will take your daughters to be confectionaries, and to be cooks, and to be bakers.
And he will take your fields, and your vineyards, and your oliveyards, even the best of them, and give them to his servants.
And he will take the tenth of your seed, and of your vineyards, and give to his officers, and to his servants.
And he will take your menservants, and your maidservants, and your goodliest young men, and your asses, and put them to his work.
He will take the tenth of your sheep: and ye shall be his servants.

And ye shall cry out in that day because of your king which ye shall have chosen you; and the Lord will not hear you in that day.

WARNING: Off topic
The Chinese government, you know the one that Fits and others think outsmart us in trade deals and currency manipulation, well they are making some very stupid decisions. They’re trying to control stock prices. They are failing. Such efforts always fail, because market forces can’t be resisted without doing severe damage to the market. Whether it’s stocks in China or comercial goods in Venezuela, the only way to control prices is to destroy the market for them.

I can’t remember the economists who first expressed these views and I’m paraphrasing greatly; Efforts to stabilize markets create instability and efforts to reduce risks encourage more risky behavior.

What the Chinese government is doing is not just bad for their own people, but is bad for the world economy. But of greater concerns, the government is losing credibility. Their is going to be political instability or maybe a crackdown. I think their foreign investments in natural resources is stupid too. Technology always either brings down the costs of resources or finds substitutes. Their investments in Venezuela, the Nicaraguan canal and the New Silk road projects are also ill conceived. Heavy handed government planning always fails against the fee market.

What you say is what makes chess so interesting….but you got me on “the mark of a patzer ” — what is that?

Reply
euwe max July 8, 2015 at 6:35 am

oh.. sorry, patzer is common derision for “amateur” in chess clubs…

Weissenstein says she had met I. A. Horowitz at the Manhattan Chess Club one evening, where the famous American master and chess author asked if, given her expertise in language, she might be able to answer a question concerning a well-known chess term:

“The day before he had watched a game during which one of the players, having made a few juicy blunders, called himself a patzer. Had the word been used correctly, Mr. Horowitz asked. Can a player still qualify as a patzer even though he acknowledges being one? Does not the expression imply a personality that will never admit his blunders?”

At first, Dr. Weissenstein responded that “the word patzer had no such limitations and that also a person of great humility could claim the title provided he had the necessary qualifications.” But after a little research in historical linguistics, she had her doubts. Here are some of her findings:

There is an old German word batzen, now patzen, derived from backen, “to bake.” As a noun batzen meant a clot, lump, a sticky mess; as an intransitive verb to be sticky, gluey, and as a transitive to do smeary, bad, superficial work, to blunder. We can see at once that this is where our friend, the patzer comes in, making nice big blunders.

To the same family of words belongs also an adjective, patzig, archaic batzet or batzig, meaning bloated, boastful, impudent, conceited.

Shame-faced, I have to confess that I did not think of this adjective as I answered Master Horowitz’s question much too hastily. Now, having concluded my research, I would not dare to decide one way or the other because unfortunately I found so little literature about the word….

Master Horowitz may easily be right in his assumption that the word patzer contains an element of conceit and bragging.Patzer and patzig come from the same family, and family will tell as we all know. And we certainly must admire his keen perception and flair for language. Which brings home for us the old truth that a master is always a master and a patzer–a patzer.

As Weissenstein’s implicit application of the term to herself in her conclusion suggests, it really does not matter what the historical usage of the term might be, since people communicate with words as they function for us in the present moment. If the original coinage was intended to describe pretenders to knowledge, our own more uncertain and self-reflexive age has found in the word a proper way of coping with our perhaps overly-self-conscious acceptance that chess is much more difficult than we can even pretend to master.

Achilles is in a footrace with a tortoise. Achilles allows the tortoise a head start of 100 meters. Each racer starts running at some constant speed, then after some finite time, Achilles will have run 100 meters, bringing him to the tortoise’s starting point. During this time, the tortoise has moved a much shorter distance, say, 10 meters. It will then take Achilles some further time to run that distance, by which time the tortoise will have advanced farther; and then more time still to reach this third point, while the tortoise moves ahead. Thus, whenever Achilles reaches somewhere the tortoise has been, he still has farther to go. Therefore, because there are an infinite number of points Achilles must reach where the tortoise has already been, he can never overtake the tortoise.

“He doesn’t believe in a path to citizenship,” Clinton told CNN’s Brianna Keilar.

They’ve probably got his suit and tie with the long sleeves ready for him, if he reveals any more.

Why tell you? July 8, 2015 at 8:24 am

You’re too fucking stupid to get it, if he did tell you. You will kiss Hillary’s ass, like you do Obama, no matter what she does to the country. And that’s all you care about. So cut the Bullshit, idiot. Go, like the clueless robot you are, and cast your vote to send us spiralling downward.
People like you need to get the fuck out our country. You’re destroying it.

Hillary will lead to our ruin July 8, 2015 at 6:30 am

See Greece. Elect Hillary, and she’ll finish the job Obama started, and we’ll be in default before long. Carter would have done it. A GOP Congress saved Bill from doing it, and has to some small degree slowed Obama. But we cannot withstand another Democrat president.
But sadly, America has to be abused to the point of extreme pain before we wake up. The generation of parents today (and too many voters) have no connection to the Great Depression, and no knowledge of history.
Fools elect Obama and Hillary. But we all have to pay for their ignorance, stupidity and arrogance. Let’s hope we don’t get to the point that we’re severely punished for allowing corrupt and evil people, like Obama and Hillary, ruin us. I’m praying, hope you will, too.

I’m very pleased with The Donald.

I was a bit worried that the GOP might pick up some of the Hispanic vote. There are lots of Hispanic small businessmen who might fall for the Rotary Club-style drivel.. But no worries now!

“Clinton said she was “very disappointed” by recent remarks from GOP presidential candidate Donald Trump..”
I always anxiously await the judgement that the Clinton’s bestow on any individual or organization. They are the paragon of excellence, their honesty, morals, truthfulness, personal modesty, and their ability to interact with the common person is beyond reproach. Their ability to interact and sympathize with the average person is enough to make us all weep.
