Hillary was asked why her State Dept greenlit the transfer of 20% of strategic US uranium to the Russians. Clinton claimed she had no involvement..."...it wasnt something the secretary of state did. Beyond being an admission of extreme executive negligence on an issue of utmost national security, Hillarys statement strains credulity for these reasons:
First, nine investors who profited from the uranium deal collectively donated $145 million to the Clinton Foundation, including mega-donor and Canadian mining billionaire Frank Giustra, who pledged $100 million. Giustra and Bill Clinton frequently globetrot, and formed the Clinton-Giustra Initiative.
Asked about the Kremlin-backed bank that paid Bill $500,000 for a single speech in Moscow, Hillary offered a blurry evasion. It happened in terms of the support for the foundation before I was secretary of state. Yet, the Times confirms the gargantuan fee was pocketed, shortly after the Russians announced their intention to acquire a majority stake in Uranium One. Plus----at the time Hillarys State Dept was considering the Uranium One deal, Uranium Ones then-chief Ian Telfer donated $2.35 million that the Clinton foundation kept hidden. Hillary notes that nine US government agencies signed off on that deal......but she was the only US agency signoff w/ $145 million from uranium shareholders.
Hillary wishes these questions would vanish. But thats unlikely. The RNC finds that the US uranium transfer is the most persuasive message tested and one that severely undercuts her perceived strength of resume. American voters are left to ponder Hillary's involvement in US uranium now in Vladimir Putin's hands: She's either dangerously incompetent or deeply dishonest.

She is deeply dishonest and not the least bit incompetent about it. She is worse than Barry Soetoro because she is a competent Marxist.
Hillary runs here own “show” Obama.....not so much.
