I wonder what that Foundation’s books look like. What percentage of contributions go to good works versus perks and salaries, and what types of activities are funded. I’d bet it’s highly political.

So, when either Clinton gives a dinner or a speech, what counts is who gets on the list for brining in the money. What they are peddling is influence. And, by running the funds through their Foundation, they can do it in a tax advantaged manner!

I took a quick look at the Foundation’s books in the past few minutes. Anyone interested can google “clinton foundation form 990.”

As of the end of 2012, the foundation had a net worth of $211 million. In that year, they appear to have delivered about 70 million in charitable donations in the form of something labeled “UNITED AID Commodities”, which I think is farm implements for Africans. To deliver that aid, they had $50 million in salaries, $10 million in various communication and operating expenses.

The 2012 end of year net balance was roughly 110 million in property (what does a Foundation need that much property for?) and $100 million in cash.

What a scam.

Her “foundation” is probably very similar to George Costanza’s The Human Fund.....

This is similar to Bishop Romney, who belongs to a cult where giving 10% of your income is mandatory in return for full membership and entrance into the religion’s secretive temples, and becoming a God in the future, yet he gets credit for giving vast sums to “charity”.

” All of the fees have been donated to the Clinton Foundation”

That is, their private slush fund. And they get to put it in there tax free! Aren’t liberals generous?

That they’re not worried about my speaking or my household, they’re worried about their own,

Well, that's really going to pacify the students...NOT!

She's a condescending witch.

The foundations money-laundering gig has to end. It’s a shell game. Pure fraud with a slim veneer that makes it all legal. If we all agree it’s legal, hey, who’s to quibble. Liberal foundation gives to another liberal foundation that gives to a liberal think tank. Rinse. Repeat.

Imagine: if NBC paid Chelsea Clinton $600K to do nothing, what is the Clinton Foundation paying her? Again, to do nothing.

Clinton: Speaking fees 'donated'

You say donated. I say laundered. Let's call the whole thing off.

It dawned on me that Clinton has a known track record where Obama was relatively unknown when he first ran, at least unknown nationally. So given that Clinton is already trying to dust her tracks before midterm elections, I don’t see how she’s going to survive the mud-slinging to become the Democratic nominee in 2016.

These public Universities get money from taxpayers and students and they then find it easy to attract ‘A-list’ speakers with PUBLIC money. So what is wrong with that?

Hmmm, University tuition increases, student debt increase, increased taxpayer subsidies ...

Donated to her foundation? What a farce. The Klintons run their
foundation which means they spend the money.

What a joke.

This woman is so full of s**t that it is coming out of her ears. What an absolutely despicable person. She expects us to believe that the Clintons do not control where Clinton Foundation funds are spent. Follow the money, folks.

Of course she fails to mention that she and the bent one and their progeny LIVE off of the foundations drawing however much they need for whatever it is they want.

Those of us familiar with the the book “Foundations- Their Power & Influence” by Rene A. Wormser, understand that the tax-exempt foundation was created to shelter the very wealthy from taxation. Ford, Carnegie and Rockefeller and lately the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, used the foundations they created to continue to control their vast wealth and influence without the onerous taxes. Clinton is certainly no different.
