full title...We came out of the White House dead broke and in debt: Hillary Clinton defends her $200,000 speaking fees to pay for their houses and Chelseas education
Former First Lady Hillary Clinton isn't ashamed of the massive amount of money she and husband Bill Clinton have earned over the last decade through high-paying speaking gigs.

She makes it sound like she had to sell apples on street corner.
We(the US taxpayer) basically paid their mortgage on their Westchester County home in NY state.

It just so happens, that was their mortgage payment every month on the entire property. So, in a sense, we were paying their mortgage and still probably are.
If she can’t handle a household making $200,000+ a year, what makes anyone think she can handle our money?
At this point, what difference does it make?

Couple of mooching grifters. He’s got the self-righteous sense of entitlement, she does the martyrdom schtick. A political Bonnie and Clyde. Probably sit around comparing whose approach works better on any given day: “how dare you!” vs. “you have no idea what I’ve been through..”. God help us. It’s going to be the Jerry Springer Show all over again.
Now where’s that story about those two deducting used underwear donations to charity?

“In June of 2001 Bill got a $12 million advance for his book deal”
Good point. And to think these crooks were running the government.
Must be why she tried to steal the china form the WH when parting so they could have something to eat off of.
Her Queen for a day stories get bigger every year.
Is that the 6 million Dollar House ?
Dead broke? Maybe that helps to explain their massive theft of national treasures from the White House on their way out.
Hillary has absolutely no idea what dead broke means.
6 BILLION $$$ missing from the State Department during her watch. That kind of destitute?
Sell one of your homes if you are that bad off. #STOPPLAYINGTHEDAMNVICTIM
