Vast right wing conspiracy is a term first used by Hillary Clinton to describe the opposition movement, and their
bullshit, during her husband Bill Clinton's presidency. This was a REAL problem. David Brock provides a look inside and confesses to being a part of it in his book "Blinded by the Right."
There were many people opposed to Clinton's progressive ideas and the right-wing segment of the population was trying hard to disrupt his agenda. (
see White Water, travelgate, Monica Lewinsky, American Spectator) Luckily for Clinton, and America as a whole, he was able to accomplish many good things, like balancing the budget for the first time in 30 years!
Many people think that the conspiracy was just about the Clintons, but other democrats have faced it too.
Some examples: John Kerry 2004 swift boat veterans for truth, the
Obama birther
bullshit, the
death panels bullshit and all this
Obama is socialist bullshit!
The vast right wing conspiracy is alive and well during the Obama Administration. The G.O.P. is still spreading
bullshit lies about where
Obama was born, spreading lies to scare
people away from Health Care reform, and trying to kill anything they consider "progressive."
