Hillary Clinton shielded her top adviser accused of sexual harassment in 2008

Washington -- Burns Strider, a senior adviser to Hillary Clinton's 2008 presidential campaign, had been accused of sexually harassing a young subordinate. In spite of this, Hillary kept Strider on, according to four people familiar with the allegations, a NewYork Times article reports.

Even Clinton's campaign manager at the time, Patti Solis Doyle, recommended to Clinton that Strider ought to be fired, but Hillary kept him on anyway and merely docked him several weeks pay and ordered he undergo counseling. 

The alleged victim, however, was moved to a new job.

Strider [not to be confused with Strider from "Paw Patrol"] was Clinton's faith adviser, a co-founder of the American Values Network, and provided her with scripture readings every morning during the campaign.

Hillary's "faith adviser" had strange American values, and he didn't get that from scripture, that's for sure.  

Five years after the alleged harassment occurred, Strider was hired to lead an independent group that supported Clinton's 2016 candidacy, Correct the Record, which was created by none other than the "King of Smear," David Brock.

But Strider was fired after a few months for workplace issues, which included allegations that he harassed a young female aide, according to the leftist group's management.

A Clinton mouthpiece provided a statement from Utrecht, Kleinfeld, Fiori, Partners, the law firm that represented her campaign in 2008. The statement said:
"To ensure a safe working environment, the campaign had a process to address complaints of misconduct or harassment. When matters arose, they were reviewed in accordance with these policies, and appropriate action was taken. This complaint was no exception."
The event had not been previously reported and until now, Clinton associates were not willing to discuss the events for publication. However, this all changed as a result of the #MeToo movement in which dozens of men across the nation, and across different professions, have been fired or suspended for sexual misconduct.

The Times account was based on interviews with eight former campaign officials and Clinton associates, and there is a chance that it may influence her decision as to whether she has a snowball's chance in hell of winning the nomination for the Democratic Party. [But they're hypocritical so there remains that possibility.]

Solis Doyle, and other senior campaign officials spoke with Clinton about the situation involving Strider and Ms. Clinton's response at the time. Some were troubled by her decision to allow Strider to remain on the campaign.

The complaint against Strider was made by a 30-year-old woman who shared an office with him. She reported to a campaign official that Strider rubbed her shoulders inappropriately, kissed her on the forehead and sent her suggestive emails, including one during the evening, according to three former campaign officials familiar with the events.

Solis Doyle took the complaints to Hillary Clinton and urged her to fire the Strider, who was married at the time. Clinton said she didn't want to fire him.

The alleged victim signed a nondisclosure agreement and has abided by it. Solis Doyle declined to comment. Hillary Clinton still smells of corruption and is perhaps the biggest hypocrite to ever be elected to public office.

Hillary Clinton still has possession of Harvey Weinstein's generous financial donations to her corrupt foundation.

Careful, the Clintons are moving their lips

Yes, it's the GOP's fault that Bill Clinton's darling wife, Hillary, got caught with her pants down in an email scandal. Wait, it was Bill who got caught with his pants down in an Oral Office scandal--sorry for the confusion.

But seriously, Bill says it's the media and Republican's fault for the controversy claiming that the GOP led a "full-scale frontal assault" on her campaign, reports Fox News

"I think that there are lots of people who wanted there to be a race for different reasons," Monica Lewinsky's one-time boyfriend said. "And they thought the only way they could make it a race was a full-scale frontal assault on her. And so this email thing became the biggest story in the world.

Of course, the Clintons would never launch a "full-scale frontal assault" on anyone else's campaign, and absolutely not with members of their own party with whom they have competed with for votes.

Except for Barack Obama in the 2008 presidential election.  Hillary was supposed to have won since it was her turn. Her campaign was responsible for starting the rumor that Obama was born in Kenya to a mother who wasn't able to travel to the United States--yes, Hillary's campaign started the birther controversy. For an a Fox News video on this, go here. There is also an excellent article in Breitbart.com that clearly points to her campaign's responsibility for the birther movement.

For Bill to blame the media is laughable because everyone knows the mainstream media is in the bag for the Democrats. The fact that honest questions by The NY Times and other media are being raised about a secretary of state using a private email server (which is clearly an issue in and of itself) is a powerful statement. 

And the fact that Hillary lied over and over to us about: a) the number of devices she used for her email, b) that there were no confidential emails sent or received, then days later corrected the statement with "there were no emails marked confidential," c) that she lied to Obama after he told her not to involve Sidney Blumenthal in Secretary of State business and she did, d) that the Benghazi terrorist attack was a response from Libyan locals over a video depicting Muhammad accurately, and e) lying to the families of the fallen from that attack, again asserting to them, in front of the coffins of their dead, that they were going to get the guy who made the video that caused all this.

And so on.

I don't always agree with Ann Coulter but I definitely agree with her take on Hillary Clinton's intelligence.

But it's Hillary's obscene arrogance that really pisses me off.
