I think Hollywood could have saved itself some turmoil this year, and made a
few bucks in the process, if it had held off on the new Ghostbusters movie
and gone for something a little more current. There’s a great story sitting
on the scriptwriting tarmac, just waiting for the proper writers to put a
little creative wind under its wings. It may be seen as a cross between The
Price is Right and a State Department version of Casino Royale.
The plot: shady individuals in the U.S. government load up a huge cargo
plane with pallets of stacked hundred-dollar bills — close to $400 million
in total — and fly them off to Switzerland, where they are covertly
exchanged for Swiss Francs, Euros and other currencies, then sent on to Iran
. All this under a shroud of secrecy and in the darkness of night. The cargo
plane with the mountain of laundered cash lands in Tehran and moments later
, another plane takes off with some American hostages, who are now free to
return to the United States.
A spokesman for the U.S. State Department (I see Charlie Sheen in this
challenging role) claims that there is “no connection” between the release
of the hostages and the $400 million delivered to the very same airport
where the hostages were waiting to be flown out. And he flatly rejects a
statement from one of the hostages who said that they were kept on the
tarmac in Tehran for “hours and hours,” while their handler told them they
were “waiting for another plane (and) if that plane doesn’t come, we
never let (you) go. ” The cash arrives in Tehran; the hostages leave
Tehran. No connection. Pure coincidence.

It’s Hillary Clinton’s moment — so why is she the most hated woman in the
United States?
In real life, this would be very, very hard to believe, but as a movie, it’
s as credible as any. The problem is that it’s not a movie. It’s this week
’s real news. So when U.S. President Barack Obama, wearing the smile of a
cat belching on its way past an empty goldfish bowl, tells Americans and the
world that the cash and the hostages have “nothing to do” with each other
, some people — at least those over the age of 10 who are not employed by
MSNBC — are a little troubled.
They are probably the same cynical skeptics who raised an overworked eyebrow
when Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton went on national
television to tell America that FBI Director James Comey found all her
statements to be “truthful,” right after he invalidated nearly every
statement she had ever made about her private email server.
We should remember that on the matter of truth and how to escape its
embracing tentacles, cloud its appearance and erase its presence, Clinton
has trained at the dojo of the great sensei himself, the Houdini of
equivocation and denial, Bill Clinton. But for Hillary Clinton, it may also
be the case that her capacity for taking what has just been said and
claiming that it actually meant the opposite derives from a past trauma.
Could it stem from the post-traumatic stress from the time she “was under
sniper fire in Bosnia?” After all, battle stress from non-existent bullets
fired by non-existent snipers can leave a secretary of state unnerved. This
could easily lead her to imagine, for example, that an unseen video
triggered the Benghazi attack that left four Americans dead, when all the
world knows otherwise — that terrorists saw an under-defended American
embassy on an anniversary of 9/11 and stormed it, leaving its ambassador and
four others murdered.
But why acknowledge the many confusions and contortions contained in her
statements, when she could simply dismiss the truth? As Clinton herself so
plangently put it, “What difference, at this point, does it make?” This is
the same tact taken by Obama when he declared of his health-care policy —
on numerous occasions, I might add — that, “If you like your plan, you can
keep your plan; if you like your doctor, you can keep your doctor; if you
like your hospital, you can keep your hospital.” These were all lies —
explicit, unqualified, and direct lies — every time they were spoken.
On big things and small, Obama and Clinton seem more alike each day. Perhaps
that is why Obama is so invested in seeing her take over from him. They
both share an exceptional insouciance when it comes to asserting that what
is the case is actually not the case, and what is not the case is the case.
Considering this affinity, and their sovereign dexterity in exchanging
reality for fiction, it is no wonder he sees her as the “most qualified
person in American history to be president.”
Exactly. Just like the planeload of cash that had nothing to do with the
release of the hostages.
