Bill Clinton Is Totally Clueless About the Clinton Foundation
Free Beacon ^ | June 12, 2012 | Andrew Stiles

Posted on 06/12/2015 4:01:38 PM PDT by lbryce

For someone who is the founder and board member of a global charity organization that bears his name, former President Bill Clinton appears utterly clueless whenever he is asked a question about the Clinton Foundation, which has been the subject of considerable controversy since his wife declared her candidacy for president.

Last month, while attending a lavish Clinton Foundation event hosted by the King of Morocco, the former president was asked why he wasn’t defending the foundation more aggressively against allegation of favor-trading and general sketchiness. “I don’t know,” he replied. “I just work here.”

For being a rogue scholar ,uh, I mean, Rhodes Scholar he is rather clueless.

But, really, this article doesn't really make the appropriate conclusion about Clinton being clueless regarding the foundation.

The King asks Clinton a question that puts him in an embarrassing position as to why he doesn't defend the foundation against accusations of impropriety, general murkiness of the way it operates. Saying, "I don't know, I just work here" does not at all mean Clinton is clueless about the foundation, to the contrary he knows too much, but it's a literary device used quite often in which he can end the conversation with undue embarrassment to the both of them. The Editor made a thoughtless conclusion.

When they say “He is clueless”, it is dependent upon the meaning of “is”, don’t cha’ know?

Just like Obama is clueless about his own foundations that are set up to reward him billions of dollars after he leaves his chicken-shat covered presidential throne.

Hillary told him that if he screws up her grab for the WH...

So...

“Hey Bill, what’s your name?”

“I don’t know, I just work here.”

Precisely my thoughts. The Clintons learned one thing in law school, Plausible Deniability.

In this case "is" = "pretends to be"

Amazing that the rapist would even say something like that. Then again the rapist is what he is, a pathological liar and Cancklet is no better. The Daughter of Vince, Chelsey, is no better than her so called parents. All in the name of corruption!

He only works there... Nudge, nudge. Wink, wink. Know what I mean, know what I mean?

the President testified that he had seen Ms. Lewinsky "on two or three occasions" during the government shutdown in the fall of 1995, including one occasion when she brought pizza to him, and one or two other occasions when she delivered documents to him. He could not recall whether he had been alone with Ms. Lewinsky on such occasions, although he acknowledged that it was "possible." The President further testified that he could not remember the subject of any conversations with Ms. Lewinsky.

All Bill knows is that the foundation pays him a huge salary for “consulting”.

And remember this?

The Clintons leave the WH arm-in-arm after Bill got lewinskied.

There's no business like Clinton business.
They smile when they are low, then go on with the show.

Hill went on network TV all decked out in virginal pearls,
denying everything, blaming Billy's B/J on "an invention of
the VRWC."

Bill later admitted to it, was impeached, and disbarred.

Hillary has an annoying way of bouncing back out of trouble. Hillary's sub rosa political ambitions were in deep doo-doo when Bill got lewinskied. What to do?

Easy. Blame it on conservatives.

==============================================

Hillary's standout qualification (/snort) is that she gallantly stood by him when Billy got lewinskied...Monica was later vilified by Hillary as a "stalker."

Chelsea wishes she were the daughter of Vince. Hillary chose her other partner’s sperm. The not quite handsome Webb Hubbell.
