A college balks at Hillary Clinton’s fee, so books Chelsea for $65,000 instead

It has to be a 65,000 Hillary campaign contribution for this to make any sense.

What words of wisdom can be expected from a 35 year old overprivileged airhead?

On that subject, I’m afraid this undermines the theory that Webb Hubbell is Chelsea’s real father. He’s a smart dude according to his bio.

As with Hillary Clinton’s paid speeches at universities, Chelsea Clinton made no personal income from the appearance, her spokesman said, and directed her fee to the Bill, Hillary and Chelsea Clinton Foundation.

Yeah right.

No 'income' except access to lavish free vacations for the rest of her life to anyplace in the world... 'on foundation business'... The trips not only don't cost her a dime, she doesn't even have to pay taxes on the money they cost. And she can invite anyone along as long as it looks like the 'care'. It's bullshit. All free courtesy the 'nonprofit IRS scam business' for elites...

Her first political campaign speech, anyday now they will announce that she will be a candidate to replace her mother. If not this election, the next.

This was a Clinton setup to introduce her to America and start the ball rolling for their dauughta' political career.

Remember with the TOONS, buy one get the other free (well, not exactly FREE), now it is a TRIO and has been from the start. Who couldn't see this when they were first elected..? I did.

the Beast, protected that child and groomed her for this job. I remember reading on how the beast grilled the child and used verbal abuse in order to prepare her for her political future, anybody remember that?

I'm sure everyone wanted to hear the Bargain Bitch.

What a great idea! Chelsea provides such a role model for young women: be born to a family in the political elite, go to whatever college you want because the admissions office knows you can pay the rack-rate price without need for a fat scholarship package, marry an investment banker, and get handed a job with a high six-figure paycheck because of who your family is. Every young woman can aspire to follow in her footsteps. She’ll be a really inspirational speaker!

When pissing away money, try to piss away less. I guess I can go along with that.

Although just the act of thinking that Chelsea Clinton could impart some sort of valuable information or inspiration or that she is possessed of anything resembling insight is beyond delusional.

If an organization I was involved with even thought to hire Chelsea Clinton for a speech, I’d be irritated.

UMKC has a great 6-year-med program. However, Chelsea brings NOTHING to an academic setting. Unlike Monica Lewinsky, Chelsea did NOT finish her studies at Oxford. She has never researched anything or done anything other than fly around with the Clinton Foundation and have a baby.

UMKC is an embarrassment. Not for academic reasons but for having an administration with no common sense.

Your post #4 is PRICELESS. Love it!

Cut-rate cheese. Now with more mouse turds!

So, the college is admitting that it has no standards, since Chelsea is as dumb as her mother, and has the same history of never having produced anything of value.

Well, yeah, that's pretty much it, except the Board of Regents probably thinks it's exhibiting some measure of fiscal stewardship by only getting ripped off to the discounted tune of $65K. They probably think they're getting some kind of bargain.

The democrat party uses the colleges as another place for money laundering.
