It Was Ever Thus

Huff Post called on the Clintons to shut down their foundation.

But it was ever thus.

Denise Rich gave money to the Clinton LIbrary, to Hillary's campaign, and to the DNC, and in return Bill Clinton gave Marc Rich a pardon.

This was condemned by the NY Times and by many other Dems.

But the Clintons were just warming up.

Bill made over 100 million in speaking fees and raked in hundreds of millions for his foundation while essentially selling access to him, his Rolodex, and a Sec of State who might become president.

It's that Ivy League pretense that he affected back in law school so he wouldn't be snubbed as a hick farm boy.
He aspired to become as snooty as the 'best' of them in order to fit in.

Why do you think he calls me "Clownhicker". Being a "hick" is the ultimate embarrassment to johnforbes.
He's still running from his past....like five miles a day.

Clowntoker is entirely wrong.

I'm very comfortable mentioning my childhood doing agricultural labor.

Just last night, there were three teachers competing on "Jeopardy!"

Every time I knew something they didn't (which was alarmingly often), it was just another reminder that true culture stems from picking tomatoes for ten cents per basket.

Heck, given "DM" as a clue and those three still didn't get "dark matter."

I've always been kinda partial to light matter.
