    The most corrupt “charity” organization ever. Taking money from Chevron, Saudia Arabia, Russia and on and on… All while our Secretary of State dealing with foreign governments! Even liberals(probably not the ultra-Libs on here) are troubled. We don’t need another corrupt administration.Charity Navigator has “serious concerns” since the foundation spends such a large percentage on employee compensation.Reuters: The Clinton Foundation has acknowledged that the government funding totals omitted from their tax returns cannot be found on their website either, despite the foundation’s acting chief executive officer earlier suggesting they were available there.

    The foreign government funding received by the globe-spanning charities of Hillary Clinton’s family has received particular scrutiny in recent weeks as Clinton seeks to become the Democratic nominee in the 2016 presidential election.

    The foundation’s acknowledgement means precise totals for government grants to the charity for the last three years of Clinton’s four-year tenure as secretary of state have still not been publicly disclosed. All U.S. charities have to separately disclose each year how much they get in government funding, both domestic and foreign.

    Shortly before taking office in 2009, Clinton promised the Obama administration heightened transparency concerning donors to her family’s charities to avoid accusations of conflicts of interests when she became the nation’s most senior diplomat. In recent months, the charities have said they did not comply with some parts of the agreement.http://www.reuters.com/article/2015/05/11/us-usa-election-clinton-foundation-idUSKBN0NW0A420150511

    That is just her income from making a speech. Leave her alone… Very alone.

    That’s right Lisa. If you keep focusing on Hillary, maybe we’ll forget about taking a close look at the GOP candidates.

    What “Republican” Supreme Court? Almost all rulings are based on 5-4 decisions.

    I find it interesting that you don’t even attempt to show us what lies Bush stated. I guess you figure that all problems are the fault of 43.

    “I suppose you think Bush’s “No Child Left A Dime” was a good policy?”

    I though a lot of what Bush did was BS, especially when he started to act and sided with the democrats during his 2nd term. No child left behind was CRAP, but not as bad as common core. I love how you liberal assumes a conservative loved Bushes crap. But again, compared to the last 2 score of presidents there has only been 1 that was better.

    You say I lost credibility?? I have a 5 yr old, 7 yr. old and 8 yr. old in school right now. So I KNOW Common core is stupid, if you have any sort of brain you would quickly realize turning all numbers to ones, tens, hundreds, then takes subtraction and turns it to addition adds so many stupid extra steps.

    I can’t wait till harder math comes up to see how stupid that is.

    When your 8 yr old who excelled in math struggles like mad now, there is a problem.

    Also this mentality there are no losers, everyone is a winner is going to set them up for failure in the real world.

    Just another way liberals want more government, by making kids dumber. This is inexcusable. You all should be ashamed of yourselves!

    “Care to do some real research, at real news sources and get back to us.”What are real news sites?CNN? MSNBC? Politico? Maybe I should listen to progressive radio?

    Sadly, Benson isn’t depicting “The Wit and Wisdom of Darrell Issa” ( or any other leading GOP political thinkers )!

    With all the Republicans and right-wing backers spending all that time and millions to keep her name before the public, in a constantly negative way, why does she need so much money?

    All she needs is $1.98 and actual access to a media outlet to debunk 90+% of the accusations. Yes, she’s got some baggage, but Republicans still have a trainload of screwups, well, several trainloads, one line is devoted to trying to get billions of dollars of equipment out of Afghanistan and Iraq, then there’s those train loads of contributor funding to their PACs.

    Even Chris Ruddy, the CEO of Newsmax, gave $1 million to the Clinton Foundation and “dismissed the scrutiny of the foundation’s fundraising and management as a function of the news media’s ‘total obsession’ with the Clintons.”

    Oh by the way Jeb Bush is probably going to out raise Hillary Clinton.

    A Washington Post columnist is now running a digital countup clock showing how long its been since Hillary Clinton last answered a journalist’s question. Its up to about 30,000 hours.

    Just say " It depends what It is" as Shrillary’s “husband” Bill Jefferson said. He prefers BJ Clinton btw and so does Monica.
