I'm sure Hillary and Chelsea didn't let that bottle of Russian cognac go to waste.

"Russian President Vladimir Putin gave Clinton a $560 bottle of cognac .. "
which he promptly shoved up ....

never mind.

[Oldeconomybuyer]

WHAT DIFFERENCE DOES IT MAKE? /scream

[left that other site]

Imagine her Thighness dressed up in all those jewels!

Or better yet, DON’T!

[Diogenesis]

Now that it is clear that they can be paid off:

So how much was PAID to Hillary and Huma to
send the 20,000 MANPADs to al Qaeda and ignore the
raping of a US Ambassador??

[rdcbn]

If they were given this much openly, just imagine how much they are getting under the table

[B.O. Plenty]

Hah...the question would be then:

..what could she possibly give these gentlemen in return???

[Mouton]

Does this not become property of the US? If this was “given” personally while sec of state, it is illegal.

"Russian President Vladimir Putin gave Clinton a $560 bottle of cognac"

A bottle of liquor is what you give the doorman. An incredible insult from one head of state to another, obviously overlooked by slick Willie. Obama probably received a bottle of Colt 45.

Buying influence in 2012.

[ClearCase_guy]

Well, it goes both ways. We gave the Queen of England an ipod loaded with Obama’s speeches, which has got to be worth at least $500K.

[HomeAtLast]

Well, it’s the thought that counts.

[Jeff Head]

By Federal Law, it is illegal to accept such a gift while employed by the Federal government, a she was in 2012.

[Jack of all Trades]

So the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act doesn’t apply to government officials? F’ing ridiculous.

[mountainlion]

When I worked for the government we were not supposed to accept a baseball cap form a contractor. There are no laws for the upper crust.

[jaydubya2]

If I accepted these “gifts” at my job, it would be considered a bribe, and I would be fired.

[Starstruck]

I'm sure Hillary and Chelsea didn't let that bottle of Russian cognac go to waste.

Didn't realize how hard it was to convey this non-verbally but when I was in service in Germany we used to refer to the morning after as a Yak-attack.

[napscoordinator]

The GSA said some of the presents were donated and others were sold to the public.

Of course nobody reads the article anymore. I knew she did not keep them. I just had to find it in the article that my suspicions were correct.

[vet7279]

See, our billions in foreign aid does yield a return....

[TexasCajun]

Once a Grifter, always a Grifter.

Russian President Vladimir Putin gave Clinton a $560 bottle of cognac
which she managed to slosh through her system before her plane left the tarmack..........
