Corruption Galore: Bill Clinton Raked in $2.5 Million in Fees from Companies Lobbying State
PJ Media ^ | 04-29-2015 | Michael van der Galien

Posted on 04/29/2015 8:00:40 AM PDT by Michael van der Galien

Oh my, corruption thy name is “the Clintons.”

"Former president Bill Clinton reaped more than $2.5 million in speaking fees from 13 companies that lobbied the State Department while his wife was secretary of state. Ten of those companies paid him within the same 3-month reporting period covered by the government documents that disclosed the lobbying activity."

Now, don’t get me wrong. This kind of behavior is completely acceptable in the average banana republic. If you’d do this in, say, Haiti, nobody would say anything.

In the States, however, there are some basic rules of conduct for government officials and their families. One of them is (strange as it may sound to the Clintons): you don’t do business with companies that lobby the government agency your wife runs.

But these corruptocrats – these leaders of the criminal organization known as the Democratic Party – don’t care about any of that. To them, government is one big ‘get rich quick’ scheme. That’s why Bill became president, that’s why Hillary’s running for president now, and that’s why Bill desperately wants to become America’s First Crook Lady Gentleman.

To the Clintons, government is just a get-rich-quick scheme.

This is all lies to smear the Clintons because I know this as a fact because Hillary said in her speech about the riots that we have to respect the law.

Yes I am being sarc

The Clintons will insist there were no quid pro quos...about as credible as “I did not have sex with that woman” or what the meaning of is is.

It’s not the Clintons I worry about. It’s about the people who vote for them.

This is all about the left trying to destroy Hitlerys POTUS campaign because they think she is too old and unelectable. So what this proves is crime is perfectly OK for liberals until THEY say it is not. The Clintons have been getting away with this crap for decades, oh but now it is a different story because they don’t think she is electable so now let’s agree that the Clintons are corrupt. The left in this country can eat me with their BS because no doubt they want to replace Hitlery with someone just as corrupt.

Obama, the Clintons and his cohorts of the Chicago mafia have transformed U.S. in a banana republic more corrupt that the Latin American corruptocracies.

I am worried about the Clintons: they’ll buy votes if they have to.

And when they actually get caught they drag out the issue for so long that most people get bored with it. And after that they rewrite history to hide it.

The Clintons are filthy corrupt pigs exploiting their positions and trading in their influence for graft and corruption. It should be plainly obvious, even to the most casual observer. What galls me to end are the no-information voters that tolerate this crap. The same voters who have run most of our big cities into the ground such as Baltimore and Detroit.

The question now becomes “Will the Clintons put the money above their desire to get Hillary in the white house?” If she quits the campaign will this all go away? I’m betting it will.

Yep! LOL Exactly. That is an absolute sure bet. The heat is going to rise and rise on her until she drops out and all this stuff will be treated like it never ever happened. “Email scandal? Benghazi? Clinton foundation? What is all that? Never heard of it before!”

Let’s face it, this whole Hillary for president thing is just more scamming for a second jackpot.
