Susan Rice has six-figure investment in controversial Canadian oil pipeline company

Susan Rice, the U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations whose name has been floated as a possible secretary of state nominee, may soon face opposition from the environmental lobby over what the Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC) called a potential financial conflict of interest on Wednesday.

According to her May 2012 financial disclosure, Rice has an investment in TransCanada Corporation worth between $300,000 and $600,000. TransCanada is angling for the State Department’s permission to build the final portion of the Keystone XL pipeline — a 1,700-mile conduit for crude oil between Canadian deposits and Texas refineries.

If she were confirmed as secretary of state, Rice would have final authority to green-light the large section of the pipeline project still languishing in regulatory purgatory.

Rice’s disclosure form — a document required of high-ranking executive branch employees — shows that she and husband Ian Cameron, a longtime ABC News producer, have a net worth between $26,344,219 and $38,826,000. (The form requires only a range of valuations for each asset.)

Ok but, **WHO in the hell gave the damn order to NOT rescue our men in Benghazi?**

[major-pelham]

Are u sh@ttin’ me? Thats a ton ‘o dough = can’t see how a news producer and a govt hack put that together.

Big deal. Look at Obama and George Soros investments that are not in the USA’s best interest.

There is nothing good or honest about this administration.

[presently no screen name]

So she’s the 1%.

[FreeAtlanta]

I think it may be the best chance to really get the Benghazi stuff out in the open. Because of that, I doubt Obama will nominate her unless he is just an arrogant narcissistic arse.

They should pay their "fair share" from the wealth they have already accumulated.

Forget income tax, I say a one time 70% tax the wealthy leftist accumulated wealth tax. They don't believe in evil wealth anyway, right?

[X-spurt]

According to the purveyors of reparations, she paid her fair share several hundred years ago and should be on the hopey-changey free ride side.

The bitch is POOR! Quick, give her a raise.

One of Obama’s ONE PERCENTERS. Tax the shit out of her and her husband.

Then send her back to a decent school to learn how to lie properly.

[Vendome]

Well then, she should get her boss on that STAT, so she can make wampum...

[Graewoulf]

Okay, now Susan’s on stage lies on Benghazi start to make some sense!

1.) Susan buys stock in Trans Canada.
2.) Susan makes deal to lie about Benghazi if Benghazi-Coward Obama promises on his wife’s unmentionables to approve the XL Pipeline soon.
3.) Susan insits that if Obama wins that he will name her to replace Hilly, and thus continue the tradition of error-free stock trades based on insider information. The real reason was that as SOS Susan could make sure that the XL pipeline deal was built by Trans Canada.

Tension was high at the White House and the Rice home until the night of November 6, 2012, for all would be for naught if Rice’s lies were not convincing enough to the ‘free stuff’ Obama voters.

Then as Benghazi-Coward Obama was declared the winner Susan knew that her financial future was assured.

FYI PING!

She probably, at least to a certain extent did it the old-fashioned way, inherited it along with her husband's inheritance as well. Both, her and her husband come from established political and business families. Her father, for example, was a Federal Reserve governor and Ivy League economics professor. She, as well, had her own career McKinsey, but it seems that was for a short period of time, so it is unlikely that she could have made it there.
