And it ain’t grand for the Demorats.</p> <p>From <a href="https://www.politico.com/magazine/story/2017/11/02/clinton-brazile-hacks-2016-215774"><span style="color: #0000ff;">Politico.com</span></a>:</p> <blockquote> <h1 class=" size-m "><span style="color: #008000;">Inside Hillary Clinton’s Secret Takeover of the DNC</span></h1> <p><span style="color: #008000;">by Donna Brazile</span></p> <p><span style="color: #008000;"><strong>When I was asked to run the Democratic Party after the Russians hacked our emails, I stumbled onto a shocking truth about the Clinton campaign.</strong></span></p></blockquote> <p>And what would that be, Donna?</p> <blockquote><p><span style="color: #008000;">Before I called Bernie Sanders, I lit a candle in my living room and put on some gospel music. I wanted to center myself for what I knew would be an emotional phone call.</span></p> <p><span style="color: #008000;">I had promised Bernie when I took the helm of the Democratic National Committee after the convention that I would get to the bottom of whether Hillary Clinton’s team had rigged the nomination process, as a cache of emails stolen by Russian hackers and posted online had suggested. I’d had my suspicions from the moment I walked in the door of the DNC a month or so earlier, based on the leaked emails. But who knew if some of them might have been forged? I needed to have solid proof, and so did Bernie.</span></p></blockquote> <p>Anyone’s Spidey Sense tingling right about now? Anyone thinking of that Santayana quote?</p> <blockquote><p><span style="color: #008000;">By September 7, the day I called Bernie, I had found my proof and it broke my heart. </span></p></blockquote> <p>Brazile held her mud during the campaign through gritted teeth. She did so because, well, she and Hillary are women. But once the dam breaks on the powerful — witness Harvey Weinstein — and the first person takes the hit or spills the beans, then the gates open and those once holding back for fear of the powerful no longer fear the powerful. There is vulnerability.</p> <p>And oh yes, Hillary’s people were lying to the DNC.</p> <blockquote><p><span style="color: #008000;"><b>The Saturday morning after</b> the convention in July, I called Gary Gensler, the chief financial officer of Hillary’s campaign. He wasted no words. He told me the Democratic Party was broke and $2 million in debt.</span></p> <p><span style="color: #008000;">“What?” I screamed. “I am an officer of the party and they’ve been telling us everything is fine and they were raising money with no problems.”</span></p></blockquote> <p>You can imagine that Bernie Sanders and his people weren’t terribly pleased though it did tend to validate their beliefs all along.</p> <p><iframe src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/9LWT1ZGR-ww" width="560" height="315" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe></p> <p>Things changed when Brazile found this, the crux of the biscuit.</p> <blockquote><p><span style="color: #008000;">When I got back from a vacation in Martha’s Vineyard, I at last found the document that described it all: the Joint Fund-Raising Agreement between the DNC, the Hillary Victory Fund, and Hillary for America.</span></p></blockquote> <p>Meaning: the fix for Hillary was in black-and-white.</p> <blockquote><p><span style="color: #008000;">The agreement—signed by Amy Dacey, the former CEO of the DNC, and Robby Mook with a copy to Marc Elias—specified that in exchange for raising money and investing in the DNC, Hillary would control the party’s finances, strategy, and all the money raised. Her campaign had the right of refusal of who would be the party communications director, and it would make final decisions on all the other staff. The DNC also was required to consult with the campaign about all other staffing, budgeting, data, analytics, and mailings.</span></p> <p><span style="color: #008000;">I had been wondering why it was that I couldn’t write a press release without passing it by Brooklyn. Well, here was the answer.</span></p></blockquote> <p>In a word, <em><strong>rigged</strong></em>. Rigged <em>for</em> Hillary Clinton <em>against</em> Bernie Sanders.</p> <p>Braile, of course, is no saint. She’d cheated for one of Hillary Clinton’s presidential debates. From the <a href="http://www.washingtonexaminer.com/donna-brazile-finally-admits-she-shared-debate-questions-with-clinton-campaign/article/2617742"><span style="color: #0000ff;">WashingtonExaminer.com</span></a>:</p> <blockquote> <h1><span style="color: #008000;">Donna Brazile finally admits she shared debate questions with Clinton campaign</span></h1> <p><span style="color: #008000;">by Eddie Scarry</span></p> <p><span style="color: #008000;">Veteran Democratic operative Donna Brazile finally admitted that she used her former position as a CNN commentator to relay questions ahead of debates to Hillary Clinton during the Democratic primary.</span></p> <p><span style="color: #008000;">For months, Brazile has avoided confirming that hacked emails from the campaign showed her forwarding the questions, which were asked at separate debates. But in a new essay for Time magazine looking back on the hackings, she said it was true.</span></p></blockquote> <p>This, by the way, resulted in <a href="https://www.politico.com/blogs/on-media/2016/10/cnn-severs-ties-with-donna-brazile-230534"><span style="color: #0000ff;">CNN dropping Donna Brazile</span></a> as a commentator like a yak drops a hot rock.</p> <p>I dunno. Anyone starting to identify a trend or a pattern here?</p> <p>Even more shocking, Brazile considered kicking Hillary to the curb altogether following a September 11th incident involving Clinton. <a href="https://www.pbs.org/newshour/politics/ap-report-brazile-says-she-considered-replacing-clinton-with-biden"><span style="color: #0000ff;">From PBS.org</span></a>:</p> <blockquote> <h1 class="post__title"><span style="color: #008000;">Brazile says she considered replacing Clinton with Biden</span></h1> <p><span style="color: #008000;">WASHINGTON — The former head of the Democratic National Committee says she considered replacing Hillary Clinton as the party’s presidential nominee with then-Vice President Joe Biden.</span></p> <p><span style="color: #008000;">Brazile writes that she considered initiating Clinton’s removal after she collapsed while leaving a 9/11 memorial service in New York City. Clinton later acknowledged she was suffering from pneumonia.</span></p> <p><span style="color: #008000;">But Brazile says the larger issue was that her campaign was “anemic” and had taken on “the odor of failure.”</span></p> <p><span style="color: #008000;">Ultimately, the DNC head says she thought of Clinton and all the women in the country who were so excited about her and decided she “could not do this to them.”</span></p></blockquote> <p>The <a href="http://nypost.com/2017/11/02/did-hillarys-rigging-at-the-dnc-push-biden-out-of-the-race/"><span style="color: #0000ff;">NewYorkPost.com</span></a> also wrote:</p> <blockquote><p><span style="color: #008000;"><strong>Did Hillary’s rigging at the DNC push Biden out of the race?</strong></span></p> <p><span style="color: #008000;">by John Podhoretz</span></p> <p><span style="color: #008000;">The stunning revelation by longtime operative Donna Brazile that the Hillary Clinton campaign secretly took control — literal control — of the Democratic National Committee a year before Hillary became the party’s nominee is the talk of American politics.</span></p> <p><span style="color: #008000;">As it should be.</span></p> <p><span style="color: #008000;">Consider, then, that a formal agreement signed by the DNC and the Clinton campaign was executed in August 2015, two months before Biden made his decision.</span></p> <p><span style="color: #008000;">There was another person out there — then-Vice President Joe Biden. Though grieving over the tragic loss of his son Beau, Biden was still seriously considering a late entry into the race. Indeed, it would not be until October that Biden would declare himself out of contention.</span></p> <p><span style="color: #008000;">Over the previous six years, Democrats had lost 60-plus House seats, nine Senate seats, 14 governorships and 1,000 state and local offices. Russians didn’t do that. Democrats did — with the help of a surging Republican Party that found itself after election night in its strongest electoral position across the country since 1928.</span></p></blockquote> <p>Even Fauxcahontas, Elizabeth Warren, was displeased with the news about Hillary Clinton. Insert your finest Dr Smith voice here: “Oh the pain!”</p> <p><iframe src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/I8qBexfR3r4" width="560" height="315" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe></p> <p>For God’s sake, the fix was in <em>against</em> anyone <em>but</em> Hillary Clinton <em>since 2015. </em>Oh, by the way; Warren is the person the DNC is eyeballing for 2020.

From the <a href="https://www.thedailybeast.com/democrats-determined-to-wage-civil-war-forever"><span style="color: #0000ff;">DailyBeast.com</span></a>:</p> <blockquote> <h1 class="Title"><span style="color: #008000;">Democrats Determined to Wage Civil War Forever</span></h1> <p><span style="color: #008000;">by Gideon Resnick and Sam Stein</span></p> <h2 class="Dek"><span style="color: #008000;">Donna Brazile lit another match. But, really, the flame hasn’t gone out since Trump won.</span></h2> <p><span style="color: #008000;">During the final week of the most important <a href="https://www.thedailybeast.com/democrats-grow-panicked-that-they-could-blow-the-years-biggest-race">election</a> of the calendar year, the Democratic Party finds itself in a familiar place: subsumed by internal divisions and sniping.</span></p> <p><span style="color: #008000;">Some DNC members argued that it behooved the party to come to grips with its past—even in full public view—before moving forward; that it took particular courage for Brazile, who <a href="https://www.politico.com/story/2016/10/donna-brazile-wikileaks-fallout-230553">infamously</a> passed Clinton a debate question, to help validate Democrats’ complaints with the DNC.</span></p> <p><span style="color: #008000;">Others outside the DNC were furious with Brazile, calling the essay a selfish attempt to sell books at a time when the party’s fundraising is flagging and its attention should be on the upcoming, critical races. “She’s playing into Trump’s hands,” one Clinton campaign vet said. Brazile declined to comment until her book was formally released.</span></p> <p><span style="color: #008000;">Clinton allies, meanwhile, insist that they did more to help the DNC than to harm it. The joint fundraising agreements were made available to her and Sanders (which DNC Chairman Tom Perez noted in a <a href="https://twitter.com/scottdetrow/status/926492339987800064">letter</a> to DNC members on Friday.). And though Clinton was afforded a large degree of operational control over the committee (which former Sanders campaign manager Jeff Weaver <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/democrats-express-outrage-over-allegations-of-early-control-for-clinton-in-2016/2017/11/02/84e949da-c000-11e7-97d9-bdab5a0ab381_story.html?utm_term=.f3f85940e186">told</a> The Washington Post they did not have), she also helped it get out of debt, even as she <a href="https://www.politico.com/story/2016/04/clinton-fundraising-leaves-little-for-state-parties-222670">reportedly</a> pillaged a huge amount of the money that had been ostensibly donated to help state parties.</span></p></blockquote> <p>Note to Conservatives: just when you think the Demorats are infinitely more cohesive than you could imagine, they are less cohesive than you could imagine.

Brazile was also trending as one of Twitter’s top topics on Thursday.</span></p> <p><span style="color: #008000;">Despite the Brazile blackout, the ABC, NBC and CBS evening newscasts all featured reports on special counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation into Russian meddling in the 2016 presidential election and the recent indictments of Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort and his business associate, Richard Gates.</span></p> <p><span style="color: #008000;">The so-called Big Three evening newscasts draw more than 20 million viewers combined on a nightly basis.</span></p></blockquote> <p>Nah.

From <a href="http://www.foxnews.com/opinion/2017/11/03/gregg-jarrett-hillary-clintons-scheme-in-rigging-nomination-may-have-been-criminal.html"><span style="color: #0000ff;">FoxNews.com</span></a>:</p> <blockquote> <h1 class="headline head1"><span style="color: #008000;">Gregg Jarrett: Hillary Clinton’s scheme in ‘rigging’ the nomination may have been criminal</span></h1> <p><span style="color: #008000;">by Gregg Jarrett</span></p> <p><span style="color: #008000;">Hillary Clinton has spent a year crying about how the presidency was stolen from her. Turns out, she stole the Democratic nomination from Bernie Sanders.</span></p> <p><span style="color: #008000;">The critical question now is whether she committed <i>crimes</i> in her theft of the nomination. </span></p> <p><span style="color: #008000;">There appears to be little doubt that Clinton rigged the election process. It was so unconscionable and unprincipled, that Brazile’s discovery of the incriminating document left her in tears. So she says.</span></p></blockquote> <p>It gets better. As I am wont to say: “but wait, there’s more.”</p> <blockquote><p><span style="color: #008000;">The Federal Election Commission must immediately launch an investigation. So, too, must the Department of Justice and the FBI. It appears that Clinton may well have violated several laws which could constitute serious crimes. </span></p> <p><span style="color: #008000;">First, federal law sets strict limits on campaign contributions. Financial records must now be subpoenaed to determine whether these laws were broken. Given Clinton’s past record of shady transactions such as the Whitewater land deal and her sale of cattle futures, there is a strong chance that a document trail will lead investigators to multiple violations of the Federal Election Campaign Act. </span></p> <p><span style="color: #008000;">Second, if Brazile’s account of Clinton’s artifice is true, it is likely that campaign finance reporting laws were broken under the same Act. Hiding campaign money through false or misleading campaign reports is illegal. In egregious cases it is a crime, not just a civil penalty. </span></p> <p><span style="color: #008000;">Finally, the funneling of campaign funds from one source to another smacks of money laundering. Any transaction that seeks to conceal or disguise proceeds of illegal activity constitutes money laundering. So, if it can be shown that Clinton violated campaign contribution limits or reporting requirements, then the channeling of the proceeds from one source to another would be the “laundering” of it.</span></p></blockquote> <p>Let’s let Tucker Carlson fade out with a Bernie Sanders representative, shall we?</p> <p><iframe src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/qen2dLpoYCY" width="560" height="315" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe></p> <p>Woo-hoo.

I’m going to tell you right here on this show, and this is news, if they appoint Keith Ellison to be chairman of the Democratic party, I will resign my membership to the Democratic party after 50 years of being a loyal Democrat. I will still vote my conscience and mostly I will vote for Democrats, but I will not be a member of a party that represents itself through a chairman like Keith Ellison, and through policies like that espoused by John Kerry and Barack Obama.</span></p></blockquote> <p>It’s no surprise to know that the hard-left progressive side of the Demorats is pushing hard to Keith Ellison. Ellison is a Muslim who was sworn in on a Koran and has <a href="http://bloviatingzeppelin.net/the-insanity-of-the-racist-dnc-chair-candidates/"><span style="color: #0000ff;">ties to terror links CAIR and the Muslim Brotherhood</span></a>. You already know how I respect the so-called “religion of peace.”</p> <p>I say: please, <em>please</em>, oh <em><strong>please</strong></em>, DNC, please elect Ellison as your DNC chair. There is nothing like doubling down on stupid and adding an extra layer of Muslim appeal for that extra buttery nutjob Demorat goodness.</p> <p>It will go <em>so</em> incredibly well for you.</p> <p><strong><span style="color: #ff0000;">BZ</span></strong></p> <p> </p><p>The post <a href="https://bloviatingzeppelin.net/dershowitz-if-dnc-elects-ellison-im-leaving-democrats/" target="_blank">Dershowitz: if DNC elects Ellison I'm leaving the Democrats</a> first appeared on <a href="https://bloviatingzeppelin.net/" target="_blank">Bloviating Zeppelin</a>.</p>]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>https://bloviatingzeppelin.net/dershowitz-if-dnc-elects-ellison-im-leaving-democrats/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>9</slash:comments> </item> <item> <title>The insanity of the racist DNC chair candidates</title> <link>https://bloviatingzeppelin.net/the-insanity-of-the-racist-dnc-chair-candidates/</link> <comments>https://bloviatingzeppelin.net/the-insanity-of-the-racist-dnc-chair-candidates/#comments</comments> <pubDate>Thu, 26 Jan 2017 17:46:00 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator><![CDATA[BZ]]></dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[DNC]]></category> <category><![CDATA[CNN]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Debbie Wasserman Schultz]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Democratic National Committee]]></category> <category><![CDATA[DNC chair election]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Donna Brazile]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Keith Ellison]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Sally Boynton Brown]]></category> <category><![CDATA[TDS]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Trump Derangement Syndrome]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Wikileaks]]></category> <guid isPermaLink="false">http://bloviatingzeppelin.net/?p=26906</guid> <description><![CDATA[<p>Recent DNC chairs; Debbie Wasserman Schultz (L), resigned July 2016, current interim DNC chair Donna Brazile (R).

Of the five stages of grief (denial, anger, bargaining, depression and acceptance), Demorats have hung up on the transition from denial to anger.</p> <p>I call that denger. Or angenial.</p> <p>Many still can’t believe it occurred — witness the host of Leftists stating that Donald Trump is “not my president.” Also witness the <a href="http://bloviatingzeppelin.net/democrat-crybabies/"><span style="color: #0000ff;">sixty-seven Demorats who refused to attend the inaugural of Donald Trump</span></a>, unquestionably the 45th President of the United States.</p> <p>Following the scabrous and failed terms of Debbie Wasserman Schultz who resigned as DNC Chair in July of 2016 due to the exposed emails indicating the obvious (and successful) attempt by the Dems and DNC to completely sabotage the candidacy of Bernie Sanders, Donna Brazile stepped in as interim chair.</p> <p>This is the same Donna Brazile — by the way, a former CNN analyst, fired on October 14th of last year — who leaked and fed CNN town hall debate questions to the Hillary Clinton campaign and later said “I’ll send a few more.” She also pushed back at CNN over coverage of the Clinton campaign. As in, CNN thought about changing up their standard fluffy softball questions to some a bit more probing, such as “what’s your favorite kind of cat” or “did you get your $10,000 coat on sale?”</p> <p><a href="http://thehill.com/blogs/pundits-blog/media/303775-what-the-media-can-learn-from-cnns-donna-brazile-scandal"><span style="color: #0000ff;">TheHill.com</span></a> said about Donna Brazile:</p> <blockquote><p><span style="color: #008000;">As WikiLeaks has shown us, from one single email account, quote approval by sources does happen. Sharing stories in advance with presidential campaigns does happen. Collusion via sharing debate questions in advance does happen. Reporters advising and/or cheering on campaigns does happen.</span></p></blockquote> <p>Facts in evidence, though Brazile had the temerity to deny them — another fabrication.</p> <p>Up for DNC Chair is Representative Keith Ellison of Minnesota (5th District), who was sworn in on the Koran. A black Muslim, you see. The proverbial Demorat “best of both worlds,” a “two-fer” if you will.</p> <p>Let’s let Kevin Jackson, executive director of The BlackSphere, tell you about Keith Ellison.</p> <p><iframe src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/C_xasTT2Dqo" width="560" height="315" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe></p> <p>An “ethnocentric racist” who wants to establish a separate country just for blacks. Perfect. Further, he does indeed have ties to Islamist causes. Robert Spencer of <a href="https://www.jihadwatch.org/2016/11/muslim-brotherhood-linked-congressman-keith-ellison-announces-run-for-dnc-chair"><span style="color: #0000ff;">JihadWatch.org</span></a> wrote of Ellison:</p> <blockquote><p><span style="color: #008000;"><a style="color: #008000;" href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/congress-muslim-brotherhood_us_5772b615e4b0352fed3e0372">Ellison has spoken</a> at a convention of the Islamic Society of North America (ISNA). Yet ISNA has actually admitted its ties to Hamas, which styles itself the Palestinian arm of the Muslim Brotherhood. The Justice Department actually classified ISNA among entities “who are and/or were members of the US Muslim Brotherhood.”</span></p> <p><span style="color: #008000;">It gets worse. In 2008, Ellison accepted $13,350 from the Muslim American Society (MAS) to go on a pilgrimage to Mecca. The Muslim American Society is a Muslim Brotherhood organization: “In recent years, the U.S. Brotherhood operated under the name Muslim American Society, according to documents and interviews. One of the nation’s major Islamic groups, it was incorporated in Illinois in 1993 after a contentious debate among Brotherhood members.” That’s from <a style="color: #008000;" href="http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/watchdog/chi-0409190261sep19-story.html">the Chicago Tribune in 2004</a>, in an article that is now carried on the Muslim Brotherhood’s English-language website, <a style="color: #008000;" href="http://www.ikhwanweb.com/article.php?id=4635">Ikhwanweb</a>.</span></p></blockquote> <p>Is CAIR in there? Of course.</p> <blockquote><p><span style="color: #008000;">Also, the Hamas-linked Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) raised large amounts of for Ellison’s first campaign, and he has spoken at numerous CAIR events. Yet CAIR is an <a style="color: #008000;" href="http://www.investigativeproject.org/1854/doj-cairs-unindicted-co-conspirator-status-legit">unindicted co-conspirator in a Hamas terror funding case</a> — so named by the Justice Department. CAIR officials have repeatedly <a style="color: #008000;" href="http://www.jihadwatch.org/2013/11/asked-to-condemn-hamas-hussam-ayloush-of-hamas-linked-cair-gives-dishonest-bullying-answer">refused</a> <a style="color: #008000;" href="http://www.jihadwatch.org/2007/04/a-few-facts-about-cair">to</a> <a style="color: #008000;" href="http://www.jihadwatch.org/2011/01/nihad-awad-of-hamas-linked-cair-refuses-to-condemn-hamas">denounce</a> Hamas and Hizballah as terrorist groups.</span></p></blockquote> <p>Yes, Keith Ellison would make a wonderful Democratic National Committee chair, a position that will come up for vote in February.</p> <p>Let’s shift gears and watch Sally Boynton Brown, another candidate for DNC chair (and current Idaho Democratic Party Executive Director), trot out the reasons she should be installed.</p> <p><iframe src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/oPWsVVgi9fI" width="560" height="315" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe></p> <p>It’s interesting to watch the black male and black female in the background of her speech, nodding and smiling, thinking “she is going to make one very useful tool.”</p> <p>It’s also interesting to note the verbal pandering she proffers to blacks when she says “and I can’t do it without y’all.” Naked pandering because, as she admits, she’s from Idaho and I’ll wager absolutely no one says “ya’all” in Idaho. And certainly not her, when she returns.</p> <p>Does it not sound something like this, from Hillary Rodham Clinton?</p> <p><iframe src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/YaDQ1vIuvZI" width="560" height="315" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe></p> <p>Note to Brown and the DNC: keep it up. Please, please, <em>please</em> continue to double down on stupid, unforgiving and daft. You truly have learned nothing from your defeat in November and, for that, I thank you.</p> <p>You know you can’t win on details or on facts or issues themselves. All you have left — as emphasized by Mr Obama — is a greater focus on division and identity politics using emotions manipulated to the Nth degree. <em>Everything</em>, to Demorats, distills down to only race or gender.</p> <p>So, go ahead: please make the Demorat Party the party of Hate Caucasoids. Make Caucasoids of all shapes and sizes uncomfortable to be associated with you. Scourge them. Make them hold you at arms’ length. That’s perfectly in keeping with the Demorats being the party of the Little Guy because — in California and moving to other states — Caucasoids are in fact the demographic minority now. It’s also in keeping with the Demorats being the party of peace, tolerance, inclusivity and open-mindedness.</p> <p>I say again: <em>please-oh-please</em> install either Ellison or Brown as DNC chair.</p> <p><strong><span style="color: #ff0000;">BZ</span></strong></p> <p> </p><p>The post <a href="https://bloviatingzeppelin.net/the-insanity-of-the-racist-dnc-chair-candidates/" target="_blank">The insanity of the racist DNC chair candidates</a> first appeared on <a href="https://bloviatingzeppelin.net/" target="_blank">Bloviating Zeppelin</a>.</p>]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>https://bloviatingzeppelin.net/the-insanity-of-the-racist-dnc-chair-candidates/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>8</slash:comments> </item> <item> <title>If looks could kill: NY Elites boo Trump for the truth</title> <link>https://bloviatingzeppelin.net/if-looks-could-kill-ny-elites-boo-trump-for-the-truth/</link> <comments>https://bloviatingzeppelin.net/if-looks-could-kill-ny-elites-boo-trump-for-the-truth/#comments</comments> <pubDate>Fri, 21 Oct 2016 08:43:04 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator><![CDATA[BZ]]></dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[Presidential politics]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Al Smith Memorial Dinner]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Cardinal Timothy Dolan]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Catholic church]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Donald Trump]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Donna Brazile]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Hillary Clinton]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Julian Assange]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Waldorf-Astoria]]></category> <guid isPermaLink="false">http://bloviatingzeppelin.net/?p=25111</guid> <description><![CDATA[<p>Barbs were tossed, as expected, at the Alfred E.
