PETER SCHWEIZER JOINS DIRTBALLS

Another person joins the cadre of slime balls of dirty politics. Peter Schweizer is the author of the book of lies and half-truths, Clinton Cash (2015). Myriad organizations will exploit the book for economic benefit. Sometimes, it is obvious but other times it is difficult to make the connection. Fox News, Joe Scarborough, Rush Limbaugh, and other well-known right wing low life are expected. This includes more subtle people such as Jose Diaz-Balart, Mika Brzezinski, and Chuck Todd who are more subtle but still right wing-nuts. New York Times bestseller list is an example of a more distant connection. Right-wing organizations and millionaires buy these kinds of books in mass when the author first publishes them and then pass them out free to neighborhood meetings, etc. The result is the Times put the title on the bestseller list as if they are good books when they are nothing but trash. Years ago, that prestigious ranking by that newspaper convinced me to buy one of Anne Coulter's books—pure garbage. The result of all of this is the public sector is flooded with quotes, excerpts, and authentic questions of authenticity. The media outlets invite the author for interviews and editorial writers mention the book, TV, Radio, newspapers, and magazines. This creates an air of celebrity for the author. The flood of publicity happens in media regardless of the motive or their political affiliation. The left media treats it as being the lies it is while the right treats it as the truth, or at least act like as if it is factual even though it is totally contrived. The objective of the people who paid this lowlife to write the book is achieved—big time. People make the connection between the Clinton name and words like embezzlement, bribes, criminal activity, influence peddling, and many/any other disparaging connotations. Who would vote for a person like that? I have an answer for them; I will. Unfortunately, by writing this, I am contributing to that frenzy.
