This ain't here to bash the Clintons. I supported Billy-boy and, unless somethings changes my mind, would vote for Hillary. I got this email today. Can anyone confirm the TRUTH or FICTION of it?? Thanks.

Something to Keep in Mind for the Future

If this won't hack you off nothing will...

Gold Star Mothers You really should be sitting down when you read this one. Gold Star Mothers is an organization made up of women whose sons were killed in military combat during service in the United States armed forces.

Recently a delegation of New York State Gold Star Mothers made a trip to Washington, DC, to discuss various concerns with their elected representatives. According to published reports, there was only one politician who refused to meet with these ladies.

Can you guess which politician that might be?

Was it New York Senator Charles Schumer? Nope, he met with them.

Try again.

Do you know anyone serving in the Senate who has never showed anything but contempt for our military? Do you happen to know the name of any politician in Washington who's husband once wrote of his loathing for the military? Now you're getting warm! You got it!

None other than the Queen herself, Hillary Rotten Clinton. She refused repeated requests to meet with the Gold Star Mothers.

Now, please don't tell me you're surprised. This woman wants to be President of the United States --- and there is a huge percentage of Voters who are eager to help her achieve that goal.

May you sleep in peace always...and please...hug or thank a Veteran for that privilege. Think about this one !!!

Don't forget, our girl, Hillary Rodham Clinton, as a New York Senator, now comes under this fancy congressional Retirement and Staffing Plan.

It's common knowledge that, in order for her to establish NYS residency, they purchased a million+ dollar house in upscale Chappaqua, NY. Makes sense. Now, they are entitled to Secret Service protection for life. Still makes sense.

Here is where it becomes interesting. The mortgage payments hover at about $10,000 per month. BUT, an extra residency had to be built within the acreage in order to house the Secret Service agents.

The Clinton's now charge the Secret Service $10,000 monthly rent for the use of said Secret Service residence and that rent is just about equal to their mortgage payment, .meaning that we, the tax payers, are paying the Clinton's mortgage, their transportation, their safety and security, their 12 man staff, and it's all perfectly legal.


Sincerely, Cdr. Hamilton McWhorter USN (ret)

PS: Please forward this to as many people as you can. We don't want this woman to even think of running for President. So, just how many people can you send this to? It will take no more than 2 minutes. Thanks

Snopes Timber, you know that.

Well, I can confirm that the Republican Party wishes very, very much that she would run in this election. I have heard that she refused to meet with the Gold Star Mothers, but have been unable to verify it. The figures of her house price and payments are similar to what I have read in Time.

Hey, Atty, read the article. Not only is it all wrong (of course), but the Clintons are apparently the only first family EVER to REFUSE the $1100/mo. stipend to house Secret Service staff. [img]tongue.gif[/img] [img]tongue.gif[/img] [img]tongue.gif[/img] Must be their high moral standards. :D

One day she will have the backing. Then all you Republicans may TREMBLE IN FEAR!!! [img]graemlins/evilhaha.gif[/img] Mwuahahahaha...

<font color="#f683ad">Yo, TL Let me know if you need ammo dude..I got enough stashed to tide me through a second wave of Cliton ;) </font>

from The Gold star moother website:

To Whom It May Concern
Subject: Gold Star Mothers meeting with Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton
The information you refer to is totally false.
At the time this allegation was made Senator Clinton was not even in her office. These allegations were not initiated by the Gold Star Mothers that Senator Clinton would not see them. This is a fabricated report picked up by an individual using the Gold Star Mothers as an instrument to discredit Senator Clinton.
Four Gold Star Mothers and a Vietnam veteran made an appointment with Senator Clinton at a later date and were very well received.
Photographs were made with Senator Clinton and she presented each one with a signed proclamation paying tribute to the American Gold Star Mothers.
We regret any embarrassment this may have caused Senator Clinton and her staff and would like to move beyond this issue and continue the positive volunteer work which we willingly and graciously provide for the veterans and their families and support of other Gold Star Mothers.
American Gold Star Mother are a strong group of women who have sacrificed sons or daughters in conflicts to preserve the freedom that we enjoy. We do not need mischievous gossip and unfounded lies to promote our organization. Please help stop it now.
Sincerely,
Dorothy M. Oxendine
National President

first hit on a google search

You could have tried checking the Gold Star Mothers website ;)

Dirty Politics - gotta love it :rolleyes:

Because naturally ther will be plenty of people who only read the first story - and not the true story.

Mission accompliced [img]graemlins/1disgust.gif[/img]

I was sceptical simply by an apparently retired Commander in the US armed forces use of multiple exclamation marks. I mean come on.... who wrote this? A high ranking military official? I may not hold many military figures in high regard, but their grammar and spelling can usually be counted on.

"who has never showed anything but contempt..."

"and there is a huge percentage of voters..."

"Think about this one !!!"

Alright, I will... :rolleyes:
