If you want to learn WHY Bill and Hillary Clinton are so close to Wall Street...

[Octafish]

38. Ms. Clinton was paid $225,000 by UBS to speak to the Wealth Management department on July 11, 2013.

Which is especially nice, as her husband worked there with former Sen. Phil Gramm in a spirit of Buy Partisanship. Old news to you, Wilms. A shocker for 99-percent of Americans.

After his exit from the US Senate, Phil Gramm found a job at Swiss bank UBS as vice chairman. He later brought in former President Bill Clinton to the Wealth Management team. What a coincidence, they are the two key figures in repealing Glass-Steagal. Since the New Deal it was the financial regulation that protected the US taxpayer from the Wall Street casino. Oh well, what are a few hundred million in speaking fees compared to a $16 trillion bailout among friends?



It's a Buy-Partisan Who's Who:

President William J. Clinton
President George W. Bush Heh heh heh.
Robert J. McCann
James Carville
John V. Miller
Paula D. Polito
Anthony Roth
Mike Ryan
John Savercool

One of my attorney chums doesn't like to see his name on any committees, event letterhead or political campaign literature. These folks, it seems to me, are past caring.

Some of why DUers and ALL voters should care about Phil Gramm.

The fact the nation's "news media" don't bring this up AT ALL should be of great concern to all who care about Democracy.
