HRC ROOM Clinton Cash Author Admits He Has No Plan To Similarly Produce Book On Jeb Bush

Hillary Clinton Room Post

CRAIG HARRINGTON

Clinton Cash author and Republican activist Peter Schweizer acknowledged that, contrary to earlier reporting, there is no similar book in the works on the personal finances and policy decisions of former Florida Governor Jeb Bush, a claim journalists have previously cited to legitimize Schweizer's forthcoming book on the Clintons.

Short article but it is clear this guy is a fraud. It is a shame some are still buying into his claims.

Only the Clintons should be subjected to lies. And I love it so much that Bernie supporters will buy into the right wing lies and smears. They still think this nutjob has creds.

7. If he wrote a book about Jeb and the Bush family he would have lots of fodder to write about.

Shady deals has been a part of the family for generations, shameful. There have been books already written about the Bush family dynasty, if we could get Schweizer to write about the Bush family as he has the Clinton family they would probably string up the family as horse thieves.

I guess you could say Schweizer had a few moments of fame and now a life of shame.

research, huh. Just like lumping the CGI with the Koch Brothers. Just can't help themselves. Think I understand why I disagree with many issues.

11. His early claim was knee-jerk CYA, just as I called it when he said it.

He already DID a piece on Bushes and used the limited handout technique in his effort to absolve them of any appearance of wrongdoing.

Typical GOP propagandist. No fan of Clintons, but, will call out RW propaganda accurately when it pops up.
