THE NARRATIVE AND POLITICAL CORRECTNESS


Threats to freedom of speech, writing and action, though often trivial in isolation, are cumulative in their effect and, unless checked, lead to a general disrespect for the rights of the citizen. -George Orwell

THREE MARTINI LUNCH: MARCH 12, 2015

National Review's Jim Geraghty and Radio America's Greg Corombos discuss current events. Today's Martinis: Reporters are connecting E-mailgate with the Clinton Foundation scandals, more violence in Ferguson, and Lindsey Graham's use-of-force suggestion.



"Too big to fail": NYT, WaPo note Dems stuck with Hillary for 2016
The "too big to fail" quote is a nice touch from the New York Times' Nicholas Confessore, Jonathan Martin, and Maggie Haberman, but they're not the only people realizing that Hillary Clinton needs a bailout. The Washington Post's Dan Balz notes the lack of competition - and therefore the lack of options -  in the Democratic primary, and the panic that has begun to rise at the realization by Democrats of their predicament. As the Times' trio points out, the "too big to fail" dynamic doesn't apply only to the presidential race, either:
Congressional Democrats are counting on a strong Clinton campaign to help lift them back into the majority. Party leaders at all levels want her fund-raising help and demographic appeal. And from the top of the party to its grass roots, Mrs. Clinton's pseudo-incumbency is papering over significant disadvantages: a weak bench, a long-term House minority and a white middle class defecting to the Republican Party faster than the Democrats' hoped-for demographic future is expected to arrive.
Mrs. Clinton, many Democrats say, is simply too big to fail.
"There is no one else - she's the whole plan," said Sarah Kovner, a leading Democratic donor and fund-raiser in New York. "She is by far the most experienced and qualified person we could possibly nominate. Not even on the horizon but on the far horizon."
Ahem. What, pray tell, are the experience and qualifications of which they speak? Hillary was First Lady for eight years, a position with no official duties or responsibilities. She served eight unremarkable years in the US Senate outside of leadership, and then four disastrous years as Secretary of State.
During the latter period, Hillary got suckered by Russia, led the dismantling of Libya into a failed state where terrorist networks openly operate (and nearly succeeded in conducting a coup in nearby Mali), approved the substandard security in our facility in Benghazi which ended up costing four American lives. Since her early 2013 departure from State, Hillary has not offered her leadership on any issue; she's only poked her head into the media tent to fumble a book tour last summer and to offer outright lies about the e-mail server on Tuesday.
If, as Kovner states, Democrats have no one with more qualifications than that now or "on the far horizon," they are in very deep trouble. Philip Rucker and Paul Kane report that Democrats believe it, and that's why they're panicking at Hillary's baggage and incompetence...
