Hillary Clinton: A Case Study In Self-Contradiction

Hillary supporters are not critical thinkers. Either that, or they just really don't pay attention to what she says. Here are two examples in which Hillary contradicts herself within the breath of a couple of sentences, and makes completely no sense whatsoever.
The first example is from the third presidential debate just the other night. Answering a question about the Supreme Court Hillary said, "And I feel strongly that the Supreme Court needs to stand on the side of the American people. Not on the side of the powerful corporations and the wealthy…the Supreme Court should represent all of us…" Now, think about it. First, she says that she feels strongly that the Supreme Court needs to "stand on the side of the American people. Not on the side of powerful corporations…" So, in that statement she is openly admitting, in fact endorsing the idea that the Supreme Court should favor "the American people" over corporations when they make their judicial decisions. Of course, those of us rational thinkers know that corporations are made up of people. If in fact the Supreme Court is supposed to "stand on the side of the American people," but "not on the side of "powerful corporations," how pray tell is the Supreme Court supposed to "represent all of us?" It's not possible. So, in the breath of a couple of sentences Hillary Clinton contradicts herself by saying that she wants the Supreme Court to rule cases in favor of people over corporations, while at the same time representing all of us. Does she listen to herself when she speaks? More importantly, do her supporters listen to her when she speaks?


The second example is taken from one of Hillary's testimonies before Congress about the debacle in Benghazi. Her now infamous statement was so dramatic and over-the-top that no one, especially her supporters, took the time to really analyze what she had said. Let's do that now. In her testimony she said, "With all due respect, the fact is we had four dead Americans. Was it because of a protest or was it because of guys out for a walk one night who decided that they’d they go kill some Americans? What difference at this point does it make? It is our job to figure out what happened and do everything we can to prevent it from ever happening again, Senator." Once again, Hillary contradicts herself within the breath of a few words. Think about her statement rationally. If it is truly "our job to figure out what happened," but she has already previously admitted that when it comes to determining the reason for the attack on the Benghazi compound, whether it was due to a protest, or "it was because of guys out for a walk one night and decided they'd go kill Americans," she says, "what difference at this point does it make?"Any rational, thinking person would realize that if you really want to "figure out what happened," then one of the first steps you would take in your investigation would be to determine what was the origin of the attack. Was it a protest? Was it an organized terrorist attack? Or was it just a bunch "of guys out for a walk one night and decided they'd go kill some Americans?" Once again Hilary has made a completely nonsensical statement. If you don't care to determine the key factor leading to the attack on Benghazi, then how do you ever expect to "figure out what happened?"

Think about it, how much sense did it make when she said in the third presidential debate that limits should be placed upon the Second Amendment right to bear arms in order to protect "toddlers," while on the other hand no limits should be placed on a woman's "right" to choose even if it results in the premature termination of the gestation of millions of unborn children?

How rational is it when she says she wants to "do more to help small business," but in the next sentence says, "I want to raise the national minimum wage?" How does it help small businesses on razor thin budgets to force them to pay artificially higher wages to their employees than the actual labor market would dictate? Having never run a small business herself, it is obvious she simply does not understand that basic economic concept.
These are just a few of examples of the self-contradictory, nonsensical circular logic Hillary Clinton constantly employs in her speeches as she vainly attempts to appease her base while garnering audiences from the opposite side of the argument. Her desire please everyone results in making many of these silly, self-contradictory statements.
