The Awful Summer of Hillary
Summer is effectively over as millions of Americans celebrate Labor Day and the start of school. For many, it's sad when Summer ends but for the former Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton, the end of the Summer months should be a huge relief. This has not been a good summer for Hillary Clinton. We learned this summer that she demands a sixteen person private jet, that she receives, on average, $250,000 per speech plus she demands the presidential suite wherever she travels. She was interviewed earlier saying that she was "flat broke" after she left the White House in 2000 yet she had nearly $5 million dollars in the bank! All of her demands sound like an entertainer; you know the ones who need the red jellybeans and specially bottled water.

All of this leads us to ask the question, as the world continues to burn down around itself, it seems we've completely lost our eye for good talent when we consider our presidential candidates. For more on Hillary Clinton's summer, listen to the second hour of my show from August 19th of this year!

The French Criticize The President
You may have missed this during the start of the crises in Iraq/Syria, Israel and Ferguson but President Obama recently took some criticism from the French. Can you guess for what? Answer? The amount of vacation he's taken! This is coming from the French! The French foreign minister Laurent Fabius criticized President Obama saying, "I know it is a holiday period in our Western countries but when people are dying, you must come back from vacation." This coming from the French who guarantee five weeks of vacation for employees in their country!

I really do hope that we don't lose site of the image that President Obama created during the month of August. His vacationing on Martha's Vineyard and dancing the summer evenings away with Hillary Clinton may not have prevented the United States from acting toward world threats but it sure did sent a confused message to our allies and our enemies. In the United States, we typically want our leaders to lead...and not from the beach.
