Suck it up students, you can just add a little to your student loan... which you can borrow from the government...

I’d pay a buck to watch Hillary eat a rat. Other than that, I can’t think of any reason to pay her for anything.

The Clintons have become fabulously rich just from giving speeches.

It made trading cattle futures and selling POTUS pardons look like Chelsea’s allowance.

“We need a teleprompter and 2-3 downstage scrolling monitors [for] her to read from.””

This all sounds very familiar. Hahahaha.

Chuck ‘Fair Shot’ Schumer called for the democratic party is to facilitate affordable loans to students so colleges can subsidize Bill and Hillary’s 99 per center lifestyles and campaigns.

“No matter what, the American people want HRC and a, ‘woman president,’ and shall so obtain their wish.”

You know what is REALLY scary about that scenario? She could totally conduct her term with a Republican House & Senate and come out smelling like a rose, instead of the rose-scented turd that she is. Her husband did it. Who doesn’t love them some Billy Jeff? *BARF*

You’re on the right track, but you’re just a tiny bit off, IMHO.

Also, no one has yet PROVEN that she’s actually a WOMAN.

*SNORT*

Just in time to make up for waning tribute from government unions.

"The Clintons have become fabulously rich just from giving speeches."

One of the conditions of her contract is that the speech can't be recorded or published. They are very careful not to divulge what the fools at UCLA are paying $300,000 for students to hear.

...and they don't want any of it coming out during Hillary's run at POTUS.

I’m thinking UCLA should wait a few months if they really want a Hillary! appearance. They might get themselves a bargain. More and more since the election, I’m getting the impression that the going rate for Democrats is declining. Steeply.

True story. This happened in 1998.

I have a friend who manages a senior apartment complex. Every once in a while an ambulance is called to take an oldster to the hospital. The normal procedure in dealing with a senior is to ask them a few questions to see how aware they are.

So, this lady was in the ambulance and the driver asked the lady - "what day is it?" She didn't know.

"Where are you?" She didn't know.

"Who is president of the United States?" She glared at the driver and said: "I hate him."

She didn't know where she was or the date, but she knew that she hated Bill Clinton.
