Ironic that people who have no problem with millionares like Sheldon Adelson and the Koch Brothers funding and bribing politicians with no limits at all are the same ones complaining about donations to a private foundation.

Another poster making excuses for corrupt politicians by blaming those who have to comply with the law.

The Clintons are cheats..and are taking advantage of America and Americans. Anyone who thinks they (either one of them) are "good" for America is an idiot. Period.
I remember men cheering Bill after he shagged that intern..."What a Man", they said....IDIOTS!

Surely folks have more sense than what we've seen in recent years. Surely folks CARE about our country and our future.

This has NOTHING to do with "charity"..except to give to the Clintons.

Yeah, they don't like a trail.....just as the Clintons don't.

Just as with Barack Obama, they don't regard his constant lying or law breaking as a weakness, but as a strength.




Time has shown this to be the case.
There is a current AP poll that says the majority of Americans are suspicious of her honesty.

Then there are those that support her that just do not care.
That is most sad.

If it were only just as simple as "donations to a private foundation".
Saying so leaves a lot of the equation out.

Weird to see the very same left wingers who wined and cried non stop about non profits wanting to shield their donation list from the public, not flip flop into thinkings its suddenly ok.

Not surprising though.
If deceit is OK then approval of hypocrisy is right behind it.

These HillBillys are so full of baloney.

Now it's CHAI, the "charity" they conveniently spun off, and then didn't bother reporting its donors. Yet another "oversight" that they're scrambling to fix--like 5 years of their foundation's tax returns that they've decided to amend.

They must think we were born yesterday. More baggage, damage control, and lyin' eyes...
