Clinton Cash

[Ame®icano]

“Clinton Cash: The Untold Story of How and Why Foreign Governments and Businesses Helped Make Bill and Hillary Rich,” by Peter Schweizer — a 186-page investigation of donations made to the Clinton Foundation by foreign entities — is proving the most anticipated and feared book of a presidential cycle still in its infancy.

The book, a copy of which was obtained by The New York Times, asserts that foreign entities who made payments to the Clinton Foundation and to Mr. Clinton through high speaking fees received favors from Mrs. Clinton’s State Department in return.

New York Times - New Book, ‘Clinton Cash,’ Questions Foreign Donations to Foundation

Seems that Hillary took large amounts of foreign money as bribes when she was in the State Department to influence foreign policy. Maybe drives got deleted because of this, not because of Benghazi. Book will hit shelves on May 5.

[Mr. H.]

What difference does it make?

She's guaranteed 47% of the vote.

 

[The Rabbi]

They dont care. The Left simply straight up does not give a shit. Hillary could be the secret gunman at Sandy Hook and they would not care. She is their bitch. They will vote for her.

This. Partisan politics no longer cares what you do - only what your opponent has done. The left will ignore anything Hillary has done no matter what it is.

 

[Ame®icano]

No liberals here?

I guess they're still waiting for DNC talking points.

Until then... crickets.

Nearly impossible to win slander case in USA. Any way by time it would finish this election would be over.

Clinton would spend her whole life in court if she sues everyone...

The Press isn't running to her aid lock step like they did for Bubba and Obozo.

 

[Wildman]

Book will hit shelves on May 5.

books are only good for the already informed, the illiterate low info types will never see or read it, the best way to get this info out to the afore mentioned is to get that info out in every "social media" on the net, and even then it may not be enough.

a classic example will be right here on USMB, the replies by the liberstupids will be ignored and "po-foo'd" along with it's "just another hit piece by the anti-Hitlery bunch, which is pretty strong at this point, many demorats are abandoning her, as they should.

 

[Wildman]

She's guaranteed 47% of the vote.

, maybe 37% ...., if that high, she will get 100% from the USMB liberfools ....

 

[williepete]

I would imagine a segment of even the most loyal Democrats might resent a person as vile as Swillery Sot being shoved down their throats. Especially with the baggage she's dragging into this contest. After two terms in office, any party is going to struggle for the POTUS. They don't need this distraction and we all would appreciate a healthy competition and vetting prior to naming a nominee.

From The Hill:

According to the Times’ account, the book includes details of $1 million in payments to former President Clinton by a Canadian bank and major shareholder in the Keystone XL oil sands pipeline project, around the time that Keystone was under discussion at the State Department. The book also notes that the biggest payments for speeches delivered by the former president came during his wife’s tenure at Foggy Bottom.

“Of the 13 Clinton speeches that fetched $500,000 or more, only two occurred during the years his wife was not secretary of State,” the book reportedly states.

This is not the first time that Clinton’s finances have pushed her off message. Last year, the publicity drive for her memoir Hard Choices became a damage-limitation exercise, after she said she and her husband were “dead broke” when they left the White House in early 2001.

Independent observers also warned about the new allegations’ capacity to divert the campaign.

“I think it is potentially problematic,” said Matthew Dickinson, a political science professor at Middlebury College who has written about wealth and the presidency. “The problems that Hillary has had in the past, dating back to Whitewater, were similar accusations of using her position for personal gain. … Even if there is only smoke and no fire, it still takes a lot to clear the smoke. She is going to have to spend time talking about this.”

[blackhawk]

We don't know what is in the book but the New York Times and Washington Post neither of which can be called right wing have put out excerpts from the book and I'm guessing they did their own fact checking before putting it out there.

Well, what do you know! Someone finally finally took a page out of the Democoms book and is turning the tables on them. It doesn't matter if it's truth or lie as long as you get it out there for the public to squabble over. Actually it's better to put out a lie because you can build and build and build on it just like Lego. If you tell the truth you can't build on it and it'll stand there all alone and helpless. Democoms are the smartest people who were ever whelped.
