politics and politicians Title: Smoking gun: Report alleges the Clintons personally profited from Hillary’s tenure at State As investigations into the Clinton Foundation’s fundraising practices intensify, the indications that improprieties occurred while Hillary Clinton served as secretary of state have become impossible to ignore. The Clintons’ self-defense is the same as it ever was; deflection, deception, and misdirection. But Hillary Clinton’s campaign team did make the substantive claim that no one has produced firm evidence of malpractice on the part of either Hillary or Bill Clinton. This was a contention that was confirmed by Clinton Cash author Peter Schweizer during an appearance on ABC’s This Week on Sunday when he admitted that he had not been able to uncover “direct evidence” of corruption on the part of the Clintons. “The smoking gun is in the pattern of behavior,” Schweizer said. “Most people that engage in criminal insider trading don’t send an email and say, ‘I’ve got inside information — buy this stock.’” That’s true, but extraordinary claims demand extraordinary evidence. Thus far, despite myriad allegations that Hillary Clinton’s influence as America’s chief diplomat was for sale to the highest charitable donor, no direct evidence of dirty dealings on the part of the former first family had been uncovered. That may have just changed. An investigation conducted by reporters with The International Business Times has revealed that Bill Clinton personally profited from speeches sponsored by 13 corporations or trade associations that were also lobbying Hillary Clinton’s State Department. “Many of the companies that paid Bill Clinton for these speeches — a roster of global giants that includes Microsoft, Oracle and Dell — engaged him within the same three-month period in which they were also lobbying the State Department in pursuit of their policy aims, federal disclosure documents show,” the IBT report read. “Several companies received millions of dollars in State Department contracts while Hillary Clinton led the institution.” In order to accept the notion that Bill Clinton was unknowingly cashing seven-figure checks from the same firms that were asking his wife for a favor, one has to suspend disbelief and abandon common sense to an absurd degree. Surely, some committed ideologues will be able to do just that, but perhaps not enough to salvage Hillary Clinton’s presidential ambitions.

Why is democracy held in such high esteem when it’s the enemy of the minority and makes all rights relative to the dictates of the majority? (Ron Paul,2012) #2. To: sneakypete (#1) The Lefties may hate her so much and want Warren so much more that they'll use this to drive her numbers down. They might even use O'Malley to stop her if he looks like he could run a credible national campaign.

Your analysis is not seeing the truth: Hillary has too much baggage. Her entire profile is not presidential stature while she appears haggard without a klown makeup artist in the background. The publick don't want miscreants as Clinton has become. The publick don't don't miscreants as Jeb Bush has become, either. I know you thirst for understanding what the publick wants so I shall tell you: more social welfare. If the publick could get Al Sharpton into the presidential limelite, America could actually change.
#4. To: buckeroo (#3) Naw. Your analysis is not seeing the truth: Hillary has too much baggage. Her entire profile is not presidential stature while she appears haggard without a klown makeup artist in the background. The Dim elite thinks that the appeal of the first presidentress is so strong that they can still elect Hitlery, no matter what, if they raise the $2.5 billion that they've committed to. And the Lefty holdouts? The Dims will play the old "do it for the Supreme Court appointments if nothing else". You might recall that Bush II got a lot of votes that way versus Gore. And if Jebster is the GOP nominee, the GOP will play the same card on reluctant conservatives.
