Clinton's Pay After Play Foundation

Last Sundays NY Times dug up some dirt on the 'pay to play' Clinton Foundation. It used to be that just the super wealthy had foundations, the Rockefeller's, Carnegie's and Ford's. Foundations aren't just a clever tax dodge, they also provide the family's that control them tremendous leverage. When your handing out millions of dollars, people do what you ask them to. Having a large endowment doesn't just make you a nice guy, it gives you tremendous power. Having tremendous power increases your money making potential, and so it goes. It didn't take long for a couple of Times reporters to piece together a small deal that smells suspicious. But rest assured that nothing will come of this. Bill is a major player and the people who own America are very happy with him. As long as they are super discreet, what he and Hillary do to shake the money tree is of no concern. The Governor Of Illinois, on the other hand, is just a punk, so screw him.
