PITTSBURGH, Pennsylvania (CNN) – Hillary Clinton used her trademark laugh Thursday to deflect a question about the $800,000 her husband earned in 2005 giving speeches for a Bogota-based group that supports the Colombia free trade agreement — the same trade deal she currently opposes.
Asked by CNN if those earnings represented a conflict of interest given that she has dipped into her family's pocketbook to pay campaign bills, Clinton threw up her hands and laughed loudly for several seconds.
"How many angels dance on the head of the pin?," she responded, continuing to giggle. "I have really, uh, nothing to … I mean, how do you answer that?"

When you don’t want to answer the question, demean the questioner. Chelsea has learned well from her mother.
I’ll bet the Red Chinese Army is laughing, too.
The only excuse that she can give for not voting for this is that there is too much violence against labor organizers in Colombia. It shows where her misdirected priorities lie.
If GW did this, the media would give birth on the carpet.
Taxpayers fund Bill Clinton spending [His $420,000 phone bill and $3.2 million office rent...]
Betcha taxpayers won't find it funny.
Hillary’s laugh is like Bill’s finger wagging — a dead giveaway that a lie is being told.
I’m just impressed that someone asked Hillary a tough question. In any event, the “news media’s” new darling is Barack Obama.
This woman wants to be President?! Worse yet, a lot of voters think she should be!
As has been noted elsewhere, she has been coached to use the hysterical laugh to cover up her rage reaction when she receives a question she considers improper.
I love seeing all these Democrats losers now validating what the VAST RIGHT WING CONSPIRACY has said for all these years ,The CLINTONS ARE LYING PHONIES.
But the stupid Morons now are for Obama As an Antidote ! What a bunch of idiots ! They go from liars to antiAmerican Black Racist socialists ! Man these people are really sick
Try the truth.
She demonstrates a lack of self control.
“cackle”
We’ve been waiting 15 years—go ahead and lay that egg, Hils. You’ll feel better!
Indeed Hillary....how do you answer that? Not well apparently.
BTW... how much do do angels go for in her analogy?
She has had plenty of surrogate egg layers in this campaign.
Wolfson, Williams, McAuliffe, Grunwald, Ickies, Penn, Carville, and Bubba himself...
