I definitely would not put him on the extreme side of the aisle.

So I need to check the OPs material.
to be fair that is kind of the point of me putting some links in. the whole idea is that you check them out before responding. I know not everyone bothers, but i even put in the link to take you directly to where he says it.


I am convinced that politicians lie like this to get talked about and to build a base who are desperate to believe the absolute worst about the folks they see as the opposition.

I listened to it. didn't hear anything that was utterly shocking.
Bottom line, Bill Clinton met Lynch on the tarmac for more than an hour, just hours before the decision to or not to indict Hillary took place. THAT HAPPENED.


James Comey testified under oath that Lynch clearly indicated she would stop any indictment of Hillary. THAT HAPPENED.


Now Olson did bring up the crazy list of dead people that float face down in the Clinton wake... but all those dead people really are dead.... you may not like it but that doesn't make it some kind of crazy conspiracy.

When I originally posted, I had not even looked at any of your links.

Look - he probably knows more about the whole thing that I do. The whole situation is unproven as far as public opinion.

If you asked me off the top of my head if Clinton was involved, I would say yes - as would most conservatives. That 's probably Olson's mindset during the interview - and being that he is on the inside, he probably knows the inside skinny on it. But regardless, he has to understand where he is and what he says.

So you believe the clintons murdered a man? Just to be clear, you are telling everyone here that you buy into to it, even though not one shred beyond accusations have ever been proved ?

So your standard of proof appears to be, if poeple you like say something enough times it becomes true.

Maybe that is why they do this? Maybe folks like Olson are doing this becausee there are lots of folks who are willing to put aside reason and instead go with salacious and negative fake stories because it suits their desire to debase opponents

And this is how far right extremists end up killing people. They believe this sort of nonsense. If Clinton killed all those people, then violence is a acceptable answer. Its why there are more incidents of people being killed in the US by far right extremists, then by Islamic terrorists. The islamic terrorists win on body counts, the far right win on murdered police, and total incidents.
The far left incidents of murder are tiny in comparison.

Shocked by Texas politics, check out Greg Abbott. Truly deranged. It's a Texas tradition.

Yes, a hayseed from Arkansas and some blue collar daughter from a no name family in Illinois become "the most criminal power people in modern American history." It's an incredible American success story.

Somebody ought to write a book about it.
