Hillary Vetted Veeps

                 According to reports, Hillary Clinton’s potential Vice-Presidential candidates were vetted like Hitler’s food taster. Politico.com said they had to turn over every password for every social media account for every member of their families. They were made to produce copies of every resumé that they’d put out for the past 10 years. They had to list every piece of property that they had ever owned. The same went for each and every business partner… and every gift they’d ever received, according to those familiar with the specifics of the process. Well that’s a bit ironic, isn’t it? Certainly takes hypocrisy and elevates it to a level never before achieved in human history. And that may just be an understatement.

                The finalists in the quest to be Hillary Clinton’s running mate were subjected to five weeks of intense questioning. And then follow-up questions were asked, and follow-up questions to the follow-up questions, “starting from when they were summoned one-by-one to meet with campaign chairman John Podesta and lawyer Jim Hamilton, and told to bring along just one trusted person who’d serve as the point of contact,” according to Politico.

                The would-be Veeps took their “final exam” at Hillary’s Washington, D.C. abode last Friday. At the conclusion of each grilling Hillary asked each contestant, “Why do you want the job?”

                Good question. A much better one, however, would be: Why is nobody vetting Hillary?

                Hillary can’t account for 30,000 missing e-mails. Or won’t turn them over. Don’t think she would turn over every password to every social media account she and Bill and Chelsea ever had. Call me a skeptic. The Clintons also attempted to hide what happened to roughly $200,000 of missing White House furniture and appliances upon leaving the White House in early 2001. “Who all have you been associated with, Hill? How did you turn $1,000 into $100,000 in cattle futures so quickly, Mrs. C? Can you explain Vince Foster’s demise…and 18 or so other unlucky folks that have come into your lives and who rather suspiciously went on to assume room temperature at untimely moments? Now, about the millions given to the Clinton Foundation by foreign entities who aren’t… Mrs. Clinton? Mrs. Clinton?!”
