Bill's speaking fees will be way way worse than any campaign finance scandal |
|
The amount of money he "earned" from foreigners, and from corporations that went straight into Hillary's pockets via Bill is beyond the dreams of most Americans.
It will make these $100,000 bundlers look small potatoes indeed.

2. I'm also interested in who is donating to Bill's Prez Library fund |
|
How many scumbags and foreigners donated to Bill's Prez Library fund and want pardons or other special favors?

4. So it's illegal to donate to a presidential library? |
|
I see. You think giving money to a book building is a bribe to President Hillary on spec. And you want to say that it's guilt by association. They want things. They put money in. It DOES NOT MATTER IF THERE IS ANY QUID PRO QUO! We can simply assume there will be some sometime.
Well, that exactly what I've been saying about Obama's house. We can intelligently assume that Rezko wanted something and he expected to get it and Obama expected to give it or he wouldn't have brought him in on the deal.
WE AGREE. Of course, that would get Obama indicted without proof, but you want to indict Hillary and William Clinton without proof. Shouldn't the same rules apply?
GO FOR IT!

8. Bill Clinton was chummy with brutal dictator Prez Uribe of Columbia |
|
and was using his influence to push for a free trade deal for his buddy Uribe, whose regime slaughers union activists in Columbia.
Bill is a philanderer in both sex and politics. He and Hillary are completely amoral.

3. It's illegal to take speaking fees? When was that law passed? |
|
Or is it only illegal for a Democrat to get paid as high or higher than a Republican?
Think very carefully about what you want here. And what you might get instead.
Obama's quite a young man. Are you going to forbid HIM from earning lecture fees? Oh, hell. DO IT. Michele can support them both as a corporate attorney.

5. Actually I do think it should be outlawed. |
|
But my problem is that if these donors were speculating that Hillary was going to be running for President its kind of like giving her money before hand. She would already be bought and paid for.
