In the end, it is ALWAYS about the money (or power that gets them the MONEY). Always.
I’m guessing, purely conjecture on my part admittedly, that Gates has some tooky ass book he’s hawking off to pad his dacha - maybe furnish it and add a waterbed or whatever.
I’d further guess that he filled out an “Obama Butthurt Dispensation Form” that blessed his expose.....
My instinct is that if they were evil enough to throw in with that bastard, they are still evil enough to lie to you so they can get your money for a book.
