Clinton Angrily Refuses to Release Wall Street Transcripts (cause she's already transparent enough)
Washington Free Beacon ^ | April 11, 2016 | Jenna Lifhits

In an interview with two Philadelphia newspapers Monday, Hillary Clinton again refused to release the transcripts to her pricy Wall Street speeches but insisted that she was the most transparent candidate for president.

"Well, I can only say this: let's make sure everybody is already as transparent as I," Clinton said when asked whether her refusal to release the transcripts signaled that she had "something to hide."

Clinton avoided discussing the transcripts and instead focused on the "30 years" worth of tax returns that she had released. Seeing as rival Bernie Sanders has yet to release his tax returns, Clinton claimed, she was being held to a "double standard."

Her speeches are highly classified and can’t be released. All other top secret US emails can be turned over to anyone who can hack her basement server.

I wouldn't be surprised if he doesn't even keep a copy.

Hillary speaks from the alternate reality in which she exists.

It's not something the People are going to connect with or tolerate.

The more I see Hillary speak, the more I feel like the GOP could just sail into the White House, if it weren't for the fact that they're at least as transparently corrupt as Hillary, if not more so...

Captain Obvious would naturally ask:

"Why doesn't anyone who attended one of the speeches get interviewed by the media?"

It's not like the attendees were required to sign non-disclosures were they? I'm sure there are a few no longer employed at those firms who could answer just a few basic journalism 101 type questions? You know like who, why, what, where, when, was discussed?

Half expecting a reptile tongue to come slithering out.

Who would want to see an old male communist’s tax returns? Maybe an old female Marxist?

Is that recent? She looks terrible. I swear they are putting Vaseline on all the lenses of the cameras for her.

This single issue has cost her more voters than any email or Benghazi situation with the Left.

Those things they can overlook, their contempt for Wall Street though is not to be taken lightly, which is exactly what she’s doing.

She is in quite a pinch, the speeches must be so damning, that she just can’t release them. No way to redact those or have Obama claim “executive privilege” on the contents of such.

I think that you’ve got it wrong. I think the speeches will be innocuous, full of platitudes, and boring. The scandal is that she was paid 250 to 500k to deliver each of them. Clearly peddling influence.
