Not to mention meaningless gibberish as she speaks. What kind of idiots would hire her for anything? Uh, rich ones apparently.

[Parley Baer]

I bet UCLA was reimbursed by the dimoKKKRATS who control California. Just another way for the RATS to funnel taxpayer money into their candidates coffers.

Thanks for the post!!

You are good!

[Mr. Blond]

At least she brings her own booze.

[Opinionated Blowhard]

Oh boy!!!! Money, money, money, money, money, money, money, money and MORE money!!!!

Like many major universities, UCLA regularly pays high-profile speakers to visit campus. Many of the visits are funded through a private endowment and not with tuition or public dollars. Clinton/s appearance was privately funded as part of a lecture series endowed by Meyer Luskin, an investor and president of Scope Industries, a food waste recycling company.

See? Hillary's benefactors are is still recyling bullshiitte (er, food waste particles) ...

MICROMANAGING A MEDAL When university officials decided to award Clinton the UCLA Medal, Clinton/s team asked that it be presented to her in a box rather than draped around her neck. That request was sent to the university/s chancellor, Gene Block. Chancellor Block has agreed to accommodate Hillary Clinton/s request to have the medal presented in a box, Assistant Provost Margaret Leal-Sotelo wrote in one e-mail. Lippert replied: I can either have the jewelers box open or closed, in case the Chancellor doesn/t want to risk opening it.

“a food waste recycling company.”

The perfect sponsor for her!

[Liz]

She looks like she bit into one of those lemon wedges.

My only beef would be the size of the fee. Everything else is fairly reasonable for a speaking engagement, or performing artist.

I doubt they needed to purchase laptop and scanner. You can’t tell me that a huge university like UCLA doesn’t have a boatload of those, including new ones still boxed up.

[Liz]

Video of speech at web site......may still be available.

[nascarnation]

Based on the small crowds noted at most of her paid speeches, the cost per attendee is pretty huge.

[navet97]

Why is het butt so big with all the diet ginger ale, crudites, hummus and sliced fruit?

[pepsi_junkie]

demanding a computer, scanner

Better check that computer for classified documents, it's what she does.

These idiots:

UCLA Communications Director Jean-Paul Renaud said in a statement that Clinton/s speech helped expand dialogue among scholars, leaders in government and business, and the greater Los Angeles community. He said that the university acted as a responsible steward of financial resources” and that ticket revenue funded the College/s Greatest Needs Fund, which includes undergraduate and graduate student support.

[Suz in AZ]

Probably receives government funding. Hmmmmm.

Hitlery gave her 2 cents worth and I demanded a refund.

The Washington Post just can't help but to keep covering for Hillary.

They neglect to mention her demand that she be flown to the event in a Biz Jet of at least Gulf Stream 450 ( an upgraded version of the celebrity status ride of choice , the Gulf Steam IV - or simply G4 as it it's called by the cool crowd) caliber and that she stay in the Presidential Suite of a hotel with at least 4 Stars.
