  • Clinton Scandals Compiled by Jerry Winkel
    Clinton Scandals Compiled by Jerry Winkel The following is a compilation, which is by no means exhaustive, of news excerpts from the last few years. Regardless of if you think the various charges against the Clinton’s are false or if you think they are politically motivated, you will certainly see a pattern. You will see patterns of denial, alleged behavior, misinformation and poor judgment. Absurd comments are marked in bold and the comments of the compiler are in italics. This is still a draft since is needs more editing. I also didn’t capture all the references (major oops). But if you dislike the Clinton’s it is a good resource. One article I would love to include but could not find was about Al Gore admitting that he broke the law in campaign financing but was proud of it because he had to do whatever it took to prevent the Republican Congress from hurting America. Great! If you think your cause is the most important, it is ok to break the law. To Bill - Thanks for the Memories As I was making my daily journey to the Post Office the other day, I patiently waited for a car to vacate a parking space near the door. As the rear of the vehicle came toward me, I noticed a bumper sticker which read, in big, bold letters, "THANK ME. I VOTED CLINTON-GORE." Of course, the bumper sticker was printed in response to an earlier sticker which adorned some automobiles some six years ago. Back then, as Presidents Bill and Hillary were attempting to nationalize health care and play havoc with the discipline and fiber of the military, ADon't Blame Me.

  • INGEN ANLEDNING TILL ORO (?) INGEN År 2020, Det Som Skulle Bli Så Festligt
    2021 INGEN ANLEDNING TILL ORO (?) INGEN År 2020, det som skulle bli så festligt. 10-talet var slut, ett nytt decennium låg framför oss – Ljuva framtid. Sedan kom pandemin. 2020 är coronapande- mins år. Bokens titel Ingen anledning till oro (?) knyter an till den smittskydds- expert som för svenska folket var helt okänd vid tillfället och som i slutet av januari 2020 bedömde att det inte fanns någon anledning till oro. Smitt- ANLEDNING skyddsexperten kom senare att bli hela svenska folkets statsepidemiolog, hela svenska folkets egen Anders, Anders Tegnell. Trots att nyhetsbruset har dominerats av corona och covid-19 under året som gått har den inte helt tagit över nyhetsagendan. På den nationella scenen var TILL ORO (?) 2020 också – återigen – ett år fyllt av intensiva debatter om gängkriminalitet, grova våldsbrott och våldsbejakande extremism. Det svenska partilandskapet befinner sig fortsatt i en omstruktureringens tidevarv, där den politiska kartan successivt ritas om. Valåret 2022 närmar sig med stormsteg och som vi presen- terar i denna bok finns det många saker som oroar svenska folket. Vilka partier eller konstellationer som lyckas fånga upp denna oro och erbjuda en trygg hamn återstår att se. Med utgångspunkt i 2020 års nationella SOM-undersökning – den 35:e i ord- ningen – söker boken fördjupa kunskapen om hur människors vanor och opinio- ner såg ut under året, hur dessa har förändrats under 2010-talet samt vad som eventuellt väntar i början av ett nytt decennium. Ett 40-tal forskare från olika discipliner vid universitet och högskolor i Sverige medverkar med analyser. Ingen anledning till oro (?) är den 78:e forskarantologin från SOM-institutet.
