Who takes the fall?
Does anybody know what the purpose of the Clinton foundation is?
Why does anyone give money to the foundation?
Why does the foundation only spend about 15% on its charitable humanitarian work? Where does the other 85% go?
Are the Clintons really out to insult our intelligence, by suggesting that they would never think that anyone would contribute to the foundation, based on having Clinton connections, and the idea that Hillary would become president someday?
Does Hillary really want to insult our intelligence, by saying her speaking fees go to the foundation, and not her personally? This implying that she doesn’t get anything from her speaking fees????
Funny, conservative organisations didn’t even have to “make mistakes” to get much, much more scrutiny from the IRS.
Mistakes, I’ve made a few, but then again, too few to mention. I did what I had to do and saw it through w/o exemption.
The Clintonian way of dealing with this will be:
1. If Hillary ever addresses this, she will admit that mistakes were made, but that the mistakes were corrected, amended tax returns filed, etc. so now everything is open and above board.
2. Hillary will say or imply that anyone bringing this up is doing so for political attack reasons, and that the mistakes were low level clerical errors, not any sort of criminal or intentional violation.
3. If this comes up again sometime next year, Hillary and the attack dogs such as Carville and Lanny Davis will get out there, say it’s old news, it’s already been resolved, already been discussed, etc.
Shalala will put a pretty face on the organization. /sarc
Of course Clintons now acknowledge mistakes! After the detailed investigatory book came out.
Keep in mind the Clintons did not acknowledge Monica lies until the blue dress with semen stains was found.
to these people, murder and armed robbery are ‘mistakes’.
Mistakes were made, women were raped, time to move on.
Of course they are...
The NYT isn't really going after them, just helping vetting them so they can clean up this scandal early and have an excuse later on in the campaign...
"Stop attacking us..the NYT times vetted us and we corrected the issues..."
I HATE this GD ‘transparency’ crap. If I hear it again I’m gonna go O’F’nPaque.
hillary is beating bill with huma’s high heel right now.
I have been complaining about the misuse of American nonprofits laws here on Free Republic for over a decade. Ten years ago there were about 500,000 nonprofits in America, today there are about 1.5 million. Many of them are in business to enrich their handlers, push a political position or put tax paying companies out of business.
What the Clinton’s have done is not new, Jimmy Carter has been doing the same basic thing for decades.
We need to trash the nonprofit laws in America and rewrite them such that the only entities that pay no taxes are those that feed, house or clothe humans.
FYI, in most countries around the world nonprofits do not exist, if someone wants to do good deeds they pay for them and the taxpayer does not subsidize them. Example? In Mexico the concept of “charity” is unknown. There are no nonprofits in Mexico other than the American ones who teach Mexicans that there are idiots that will give them free stuff. That’s why the Mexicans started coming here in the first place. Free stuff.
It depends on what the meaning of ‘mistake’ is. In their world mistake = felony
