My boss' son likes to watch Fox News, and for once I'm grateful, because the topic of the moment was that Wikileaks leaked the above partial speech transcripts, which was opened from John Podesta's email. Obviously nothing major that will be making her end her campaign, but it's at least nice to shed some of the mystery. Of course, Fox News was going on like it was the end of her campaign.

Sirota has a good write up

Hillary Clinton, In Paid Speeches To Wall Street, Promoted Commission That Pushed Social Security Cuts

In the email released by the website Wikileaks, Clinton tells a real estate industry trade association that she believes that as a public official, “You need both a public and a private position” on major issues.

'What we are left with is an agency mandated to ensure transparency and disclosure that is actually working to keep the public in the dark' - Ann M. Ravel, former FEC member

Hellery takes her populist mask off

Well there it is. Turn it all over to the banksters.

Another excerpt in the email shows Clinton suggesting that Wall Street executives are best positioned to write government rules that regulate Wall Street.

And the Hellery campaign is NOT DENYING the leak is real.

“We are not going to confirm the authenticity of stolen documents released by Julian Assange, who has made no secret of his desire to damage Hillary Clinton,” Clinton spokesman Glen Caplin said. He referred to doctored emails that have appeared on websites linked to Russian intelligence recently as proof that “documents can be faked as part of a sophisticated Russian misinformation campaign,” although Caplin did not say that the emails released Friday concerning Clinton’s speeches had been faked.

Jill Stein for President

And yet Jill is considered somehow not capable and not worthy of being President. Jill is so much a better leader than any of these other evil clowns, experience means nothing in that regard. Turn the f**king matrix off.

If Trump Was Smart . . .

We know he isn't, but if he was, he'd be jumping on this Social Security cut promise. Hillary would immediately lose the elder vote, no questions asked. Social Security isn't call the Political Third Rail for nothing!

For those of you who don't live in cities served by light rail, the third rail is the raised one which carries the power for the train to operate. Few people who make contact with that rail survive.

Controlled opposition, there

Controlled opposition, there to lead the voters to vote for his friend. He will sound crazier still as the election comes closer. Never meant to win. How popular he still is - is a measure of how angry the people are, how many more people are aware of how rigged this system is and how much people see Hillary for the war mongerer she is.

Nice analogy!

But everyone ought to be jumping on the SS cuts Hill spoke of to the big financial self-interests eager to steal that money from those (virtually all adult citizens not yet retired) paying into the program. Even if she is likely to blow up the world before anyone/everyone is likely to suffer from those.

Wikileaks Podesta emails Summary Pt I

Well summarized by Jackpineradicals
http://jackpineradicals.com/boards/topic/new-wikileaks-drop-10716-john-p...

In April 2015 the New York Times published a story about a company called “Uranium One” which was sold to Russian government-controlled interests, giving Russia effective control of one-fifth of all uranium production capacity in the United States. Since uranium is considered a strategic asset, with implications for the production of nuclear weapons, the deal had to be approved by a committee composed of representatives from a number of US government agencies. Among the agencies that eventually signed off the deal was the State Department, then headed by Secretary Clinton. The Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS) comprises, among others, the secretaries of the Treasury, Defense, Homeland Security, Commerce and Energy.

As Russian interests gradually took control of Uranium One millions of dollars were donated to the Clinton Foundation between 2009 and 2013 from individuals directly connected to the deal including the Chairman of Uranium One, Ian Telfer. Although Mrs Clinton had an agreement with the Obama White House to publicly identify all donors to the Clinton Foundation, the contributions from the Chairman of Uranium One were not publicly disclosed by the Clintons.

I just completed a survey for ABC news

It was not about the Clinton leaks but about the Trump comment. I got to hear the recording ending with "pussy". Man-talk. The questions were would that make me less likely to vote FOR him? [no difference for me, never planned to] and Should he withdraw as the Republican nominee? [no, makes no difference to me]

Re-thinking the last answer, I should have said Yes. What a bigger mess could follow? Could they both withdraw? lol.

That quick quiz earned me $2.00, not bad for 60 sec of my life.

"Man-talk"? Not any men I would associate with.

And I'm a 50 plus year old man. Boy-talk, more like. In my life, this was something that 7th graders might say, and 8th graders would then set them to rights.

That's been the tactic all

That's been the tactic all along - the more people discover about Hillary and realize that she's not fit to be loose in society, never mind in charge of destroying life on the planet one way or another, the scarier Trump is shown to be in order to herd panicked voters to the Clinton's destructive corporate control plan. Without a complicit media, greatly enabled in forming virtual monopolies by Bill Clinton, this would never work; this global hostile corporate take-over has been in the works for a very long time.

Hillary has nothing to offer but the pretense of being a 'lesser' evil en route to Armageddon by any of several routes now very apparent to those not dependent on the above-mentioned corporate media for information - and the internet is in the process of being privatized without the immediate mass protest and withdrawal from such as Face-book and Youtube necessary to forestall corporate internet censorship and control in its infancy. We just go with the flow and right over the falls...

Edited because I evidently don't press hard enough on all of the keys and missed a letter...

Slightly O/T

Responding to both the mention of ABC news and the recording of Donald's foul mouth, twitter brings us this: Unreleased ABC footage of Bill Clinton trying to grope a woman when he thought the camera was off.
https://twitter.com/HilLIARy_Lies/status/782408067380088833/video/1

I'll bet both campaigns have been waiting for October, telling themselves that they have the most devastating recording that will just crush the other campaign.

I love the name dropping, quite the student of history is our girl. Seward, Lincoln's SoS is the guy who arranged for the purchase of Alaska--indigenous inhabitants weren't asked about such matters in the 19thC--AKA "Seward's Folly" and also, I think "Seward's Icebox".

Notice how she manages NOT to mention that Teddy Roosevelt was responsible for beginning the national park system and, I think, had something to do with setting aside public lands for public use.

TR started the National Forest Service & put Gifford Pinchot

in charge. This was a positive accomplishment according to most.

There were already national parks - Yellowstone in 1872 for example - and the Antiquities Act of 1906 allowed a president to designate a national monument from federally owned lands.

The National Park Service was voted into existence in 1916.

Submitted by HenryAWallace on Sat, 10/08/2016 - 8:28am

Railroad owners got after TR.

They had built this incredible infrastructure (a lot of it on the backs of Chinese immigrants) and they wanted a good return on their investment. Their idea was that more national parks would be inexpensive destinations where a family that was not rich could take a vacation, getting there, of course, by railroad. So, national parks were a boon to both railroad owners, people "working on the railroad who need jobs, like engineers, cooks, porters, etc. and average people, especially those in cities, for whom a week in the country was a blessing, a rare win win win. And, during the Depression, FDR put people to work refurbishing national parks, another win.

What's really funny in response to this

is all the paid Hillary trolls jumping all over the newspaper comment boards and forums desperately insisting that this is no big deal, that it was all just taken out of context and Hillary really didn't mean all those insults she was hurling at Bernie and his supporters, she didn't really mean what she was saying about pushing US wages down to 3rd world slave levels, she's not really a friend of the bankers and so such. Just really comical that they actually believe people aren't aware of all their bullshit.

It's all in step with Hillary's rallies which have pathetic attendance. Nobody really likes her, certainly not liberals and not even very longtime Democrats, so she and her staff have to pay "supporters" to pretend to back her. What a sad election, we have an orange haired epic asshole running against a corrupt, murderous and war-mongering autocrat leading the two major parties. Not what the founders had in mind w/ our democracy.
