Here's a little different view of Hillary. Notice how much she cares for "the children".

THE WICKED WITCH OF THE WHITEHOUSE

By: Nathan Porter

I seethe with contempt when I see her there, perched high above the plebeians on the convention floor wearing her best Marie Antoinette face. Liker her soul sister Rosie O'Donnell she is grating, annoying, exasperating, infuriating, nauseating, sickening, disgusting, revolting, vexing, incommodious, pugnacious, contentious, loathsome, tiresome, offensive, shameful, shameless, contemptible, despicable, detestable, abominable, wicked, and vile. It is so easy to expose the hypocrisy of the entire Clinton machine by simply contrasting their words about the welfare of children to their actions. Such was again the case Monday night when Mrs. Bill Clinton took center stage at the Democratic convention. Never before in the span of human history has any one person talked so much about the needs of children and done so little to address them.
Much of her argument about why she should be elected to the Senate was her self touted advocacy on behalf of children. She referred to children at least two dozen times, and after making her acknowledgments she referred to children in the first, second and fourth paragraph of her written text. She was just warming up.

She argued that during the last eight years more children have been lifted out of poverty and have begun receiving Head Start, child care and after-school care. She suggested that more children than ever were immunized against disease, all thanks to the Rodham-Clinton/Gore administration. She even took credit for seeing to it that more neglected and abused foster children are adopted into loving, permanent homes. Frankly, I don't even care whether these assertions are true or not because it is insanely egotistical of the woman to claim any credit whatsoever for these accomplishments.

Mrs. Clinton went on to tell a story about her involvement with a young girl named Diana, whom she met at a White House ceremony for children in foster care. I assume it was a venue for her to talk about the issue--if one wants a talker Hillary Clinton is the man. It seems that Hillary was particularly touched when little Diana, who was the same age as Chelsea, could barely look up as she spoke of her longing for a home and family of her own.

"How can we let any child grow up in our country without a secure and loving home?", Hillary asked.

Things got down right ludicrous as the first lady made the following statement:

"I worked with a bipartisan coalition to help double the number of foster children adopted. And when the president signed the new adoption law, I thought of the first foster child I represented back when I was in law school."

The scope of her actions on behalf of children was to euphemistically "work" with a bipartisan coalition who actually had the power to do something, and who would actually do the work if anything other than talking was to be done. Then after that exhausting effort, she thought a nice "it takes a village" kind of thought to herself while the fornicator in chief did the oh so hard work of signing his name to a piece of paper to which neither he or his wife had contributed anything of substance, all the while taking credit for it as if SHE was the one most responsible for its creation.

What Mrs. Clinton neglected to say however, is that suicide among kids has been called the epidemic of the 90's. What Mrs. Clinton surely knows and failed to say is that statistics show that a majority of children who commit suicide are raised in a home with an absent father. What Mrs. Clinton surely knows and failed to say is that under the guidance of the Clinton/Gore administration suicide is now the third largest cause of death among young people.

What Mrs. Clinton failed to say and surely knows is that young girls are twice as likely to seriously consider attempting suicide. What Mrs. Clinton failed to say but surely knows is that children who contemplate suicide often do so because they feel rejected in some way. What Mrs. Clinton failed to say but surely knows is that most high school dropouts and runaway children come from fatherless homes. What Mrs. Clinton knew and failed to acknowledge is that once her speech was complete she would take a seat next to Roger Clinton, himself an absent father who has refused to be an active part of his daughter's life.

As was reported several months ago by WKRN in Nashville, in the early 1990's Roger Clinton managed to father a child with a woman he dated for 6 months. It took a court order to force Roger Clinton to financially support his daughter, who he has seen just three times in her entire life. The most important thing to this little girl is that she have a daddy in her life. She went to court to change her last name to his. And because she is young--too young to be embarrassed by them-- she is hoping that somehow Roger, Bill, and Hillary will accept her as part of the family.

How it must have pained little Macey Clinton to see her daddy, louse of a man he is, with the son he acknowledges sitting on his lap while she is left to live in much inferior conditions, alone. I bet she watches him on TV just to see him. I bet she saw him with his son, the first lady, and Chelsea sitting like royalty high above the Democratic Convention. I bet she even dreams about someday being with them under such august circumstances. But Hillary Clinton doesn't dream of Macey. I'm sure she tries very hard not to even think about her. When Hillary dreams the dreams of a child she dreams about Diana. A poor orphan girl who through the effort of those Hillary doesn't mention got a second shot at family life.

"And I thought of Diana, whom I have seen blossom into a beaming, confident young woman because caring parents opened their hearts and home to her. She finally had what every child needs: a family that puts her first. And for me, that's what it's all about." Hillary said as those in the convention hall hung on her every false word.

But Hillary, isn't that what little Macey Clinton needs as well? She share's your name. Unlike Diana who touched you so deeply, Macey Clinton shares more with your daughter than simply her age, she share's your daughter's blood. Other than little Danny Williams, who has more family ties with your daughter than Macey Clinton. Shouldn't Roger and the whole Clinton family put Macey first and open their hearts and home to her? Shouldn't Macey come before political expediency? Shouldn't Roger put Macey before his music career? Shouldn't Bill put Macey before his legacy building? Shouldn't Chelsea put the needs of her long lost cousin above perfecting her new smoking habit and negotiating peace in the Middle East? Shouldn't you put Macey above your senate campaign? Perhaps making sure every child has a family that puts them first isn't what it's really all about for you after all.

And finally, Hillary earned an eternal time-share on the banks of the river Styx when she said:

"The stakes in November are biggest for the littlest among us."

They most certainly are Hillary, they most certainly are. But of course to Hillary, the "littlest among us" means those children who were lucky enough to escape the birth canal with their arms, their legs, and their lives intact.

So to anyone in New York who is inclined to vote for Hillary I ask that when she talks about children who have been lifted out of poverty, remember that she has done nothing to help Macey Clinton. Whenever she claims credit for Head Start remember that she has done nothing to help Macey Clinton get a fresh start. When she asks "How can we let any child grow up in our country without a secure and loving home?", ask what has she done to help her own niece grow up in a secure and loving home.

In his Tuesday column, John Podhoretz wondered if Hillary could have been "any more inoffensive" during her speech. I found her to be sufficiently offensive, and Macey Clinton is but one of the many reasons why.

Your day of reckoning is coming Hillary Clinton. As you sit on your perch with your best Marie Antoinette face on understand this. Regardless of what the people of New York do this November, the rest of us in flyover country will not be ruled by you. Not now, not ever. Because on the last hour of the last day that this world continues to exist, you will still suck, and a lot of us know it.
