    My favorite Hillary anecdote is either this one or that she had house slaves in the governor‘s mansion

      I so far haven't found where the text in the image is from but it's referencing the book "Hillary's Choice" by author Gail Sheehy

      E) Found it https://www.fff.org/explore-freedom/article/americas-benevolent-bombing-of-serbia/ the bit in the image is the 4th paragraph of this link

      E2) The rest of the quote cut off in the image:

      I urged him to bomb. You cannot let this go on at the end of a century that has seen the major holocaust of our time. What do we have NATO for if not to defend our way of life?

        Future of Freedom Foundation huh?

        The Future of Freedom Foundation was founded in 1989 by FFF president Jacob Hornberger with the aim of establishing an educational foundation that would advance an uncompromising case for libertarianism in the context of both foreign and domestic policy.

        The mission of The Future of Freedom Foundation is to advance freedom by providing an uncompromising moral and economic case for individual liberty, free markets, private property, and limited government.

        Yeesh. Not saying the quote is wrong, just throwing this out here. Now that I think about it, I do now question whether this is an accurate summary of what's described in the book, not because I think Clinton is beyond this but I just don't trust people like this to represent facts.

          Yeah out of curiosity I'm looking around to see if there's another source for this anecdote aside from this Sheehy biography or if this is a zenz situation

          E) moving on to other things; I looked at 10 articles talking about this, 8 came back to the Sheehy biography, 2 of those 8 were cross-posting the same Future of Freedom Foundation article (at obvious places like Ron Paul institute) and 2 articles that mention the bombing but omit the part about the Lewinsky scandal connection.
