If Not Swiftly, Truth Boating May Sink Hillary

By Ben Barrack

The Clinton name is almost as big as the Titanic itself. In nearly every way grandiose, the moniker is seemingly always attracting money, power, and celebrity.

 In fact, had the Clintons been around in 1912, one can almost see them carrying first class passenger tickets (though not through the binoculars missing from the lookouts’ crow’s nest) as they boarded the then famous ship for what is known today as the most infamous maritime voyage.

They may just be as doomed. The Equal Justice Foundation, a foundation that supports whistle blowers, is sponsoring the first ever documentary on Hillary Clinton which could reveal an iceberg capable of doing as much damage to the Clintons as was done to that early 20th century luxury liner that many believe was commandeered by hubris. EJF is launching its support for Clinton mega-donor turned whistle blower Peter Paul’s landmark civil suit Paul v Clinton with its “Truth Boat Hillary” campaign, intended to publicize the mountain of evidence it has assembled on the frauds Hillary directed to win and keep her Senate seat.

However, similar to Captain Smith’s antipathy for informing those onboard of the dangers inherent in the seas they were sailing, virtually all of today’s mainstream media outlets are equally averse to informing us, the public, about the truth. Further irony is that many believe Smith was intimidated by engineers, hell bent on realizing their own agenda. If you talk to the AP, the L.A. Times, or a slew of other supposed beacons of journalistic truth, a civil fraud lawsuit involving massive federal election law violations is dismissed (though the Washington Post will do a story on Hillary’s cleavage appearing on C-SPAN2). The truth is that both Clintons being named as defendants in a lawsuit should be news all by itself and for some reason it’s not. Are such news outlets being intimidated as well?

The tip of the iceberg consists of arguments about the false reporting of the amount, origin, and hard or soft money characterization of Peter Franklin Paul’s more than $1.2 million in donations to Bill and Hillary (manifested in the gala). However, what lies underneath the surface appears to be a much larger, darker, colder and harder truth. Election law fraud, obstruction of justice, perjury, suborning of perjury, the illegal solicitation and coordination of the money for a fundraiser, who was involved, how much money was involved, and the videotape that appears to corroborate all of it may have dealt a lethal blow to the USS Clinton. So if none of the mainstream media outlets will cover it, how will it get exposed?

“Look….On the horizon. Something’s headed this way. Could it be the Blog Armada?”

Recently, I spoke with Paul and he seems to think that despite all of this evidence, his team has up until now missed the deciding mortal breach to the hull of the Clinton ship. It involves Hillary’s aide, Kelly Craighead. As it turns out, not only was she Hillary’s aide but at the time this video was shot, she was also a White House employee according to Paul. We’d be talking about someone in the employ of the Executive Branch of our government coordinating and directing funds from a donor to a Senatorial campaign in the amount of $1.6 million! I would love to see the Clintonian definition of corruption because it may be at odds with the one found in Merriam Webster (while they’re comparing definitions, they should flip ahead a few letters and see how Webster defines, “is”).

It is today widely speculated that vanity and hubris did the Titanic in, with the pride of her engineers teased by the prospect of setting a record for traversing the Atlantic in record time while having their legacies enhanced further by the vanity, fame, and wealth inherently found in the type of celebrity cargo they were carrying. The sheer size of the ship must have bred further overconfidence. I’m not talking about the kind of overconfidence that causes setbacks. I’m talking about the kind of overconfidence that breeds contempt for that which commands respect; God, Mother Nature, The U.S. Constitution and laws written subsequent to it, the Office of the President of the United States, and the American people.

If Hillary is to be compared to the Titanic (metaphorically speaking of course), then what is to be considered analogous to the iceberg that may have damaged her so irreparably while appearing as nothing more than a speed bump at the time? What did she do that was at a level so inanely foolish that it could be likened to the complacency borne of pride exhibited by those in charge of the Titanic?

In order to know, you have to go back several years to July 17th, 2000 when the binoculars were misplaced and what lay up ahead couldn’t be seen. Whether she was careless as a result of hubris, ignorance, vanity, or just some manufactured reality that the Clintons were somehow indestructible, it matters not. All of those undesirable qualities (in abundance on the Titanic as well) may be rendered victims of something once dismissed as beneath them; an ironic fact indeed.

On Hillcap.org, you can watch the five minute iceberg sear through the hull of the Clinton ship and while there are several other items of interest on the site that may play a part in the sinking, it’s the video that continues to expose new dots of connectivity. The more one examines the video, the more it is apparent that other allegations once dismissed are now validated, sworn declarations once a matter of “he said / she said” now point to perjury, and handwritten letters signed by both Clintons once meant to appease Paul may now implicate them in the commission of egregious crimes.

It wasn’t hitting the iceberg that did the Titanic in. It was how the iceberg exposed the hull to millions of gallons of liquid truth, breaching the first five compartments, making water containment impossible as the ship’s nose began to dip forward too far. It also wasn’t the commission of these crimes alone that may do the Clintons in. The camera seems to act as the missing binoculars, preventing Hillary from seeing far enough ahead, the iceberg taking the form of this lawsuit, and accountability assuming the role of gushing water.

At first, it appeared that the tape might expose two violations of FEC laws. Namely, that both Hillary and her aide are shown to be very involved in the coordination of a celebrity fundraiser financed by Peter Paul. Neither Senatorial candidates nor their aides are permitted to coordinate with a donor of more than $2000. Once the donations exceed $25,000 we’re talking felonies punishable by up to five years in prison. Two apparent felonies caught on tape. Not enough? Take a look at compartment number three. It’s getting sliced as Hillary discusses her meetings with Cher about her upcoming appearance at the event. Any guesses as to what fair market value is for a performance by Cher? Compartment numbers four and five begin to fill as one realizes the implications of a White House employee giving birth to the Gala idea, coordinating it, and then directing the donor of sizeable donations to a Senate campaign!

Bill recently said Hillary would “never let a swift boat-style attack go unanswered”. That kind of an attack, however, is perpetrated by someone from outside who is attempting to impugn the character of another. On the other hand, when someone is Truth Boated, the damage is self-inflicted and no one externally can justifiably be blamed. That would be like Captain Smith blaming the iceberg for his failure to see it or Hillary blaming the video camera for capturing her own words.

The USS Clinton is an ominous vessel built by two people with many passengers who are famous, wealthy, and full of hubris. If Hillary realizes her ambitions, we’ll all be on it as well. Shouldn’t we want to make sure the ship we’re on is true?
