Drip, Drip, Drip goes the faucet of backchannel favors between the Clinton Foundation and State, for which there was supposed to be a wall separating. Per ABC News.

Let's be honest here, the Clinton Foundation was practically Hillary's shadow State Department during her tenure at State. From Blumenthal, who was drawing $10K a month from the Foundation and advising her on foreign policy, on down. It's only a matter of time until the dots are properly connected.

Clearly the only way the CEOs of some of the largest banks in the world could have had lunch with the Chinese president is by bribing Hillary Clinton. More of those exemplary Seriously critical thinking skills.

You do realize that this more or less is a pay-for-influence scheme going on here. That is relevant to this discussion. You pay, you get a seat at the table, unlike others. The Clintons, of course, do this brazenly, despite assurances to Obama that they would not. It's only a matter of time before the other shoe drops.

Except 2 of the people mentioned in the article weren't there, and the State Department doesnt have a guest list.

What more could a person expect from crooked Hillary? This is the woman liberals want as president? Pay for play. Pay for play. That's the name of the crooked Hillary game. Just imagine what she'd do as president. Who knows what'd be for sale?

The Clintons donated 10% of their income to the Foundation. They got no salary at all from the Foundation. They had rich philanthropic people agree that the Foundation was a good charity to which to donate. This is not scandalous. It beats the crap out of cheating colleagues and workers in order to line one's own account like the Donald has done his entire career.

You can keep buying into those lies. That's all you people ever do is lie lie lie. If you put lipstick on a pig it's still a pig. It doesn't matter if she makes a salary from the foundation. She still uses it to help her donors get connections and special privileges.

So it turns out the right needs to learn the actual definition of corruption too.

If this is the best the Sad! Trumpeteers have got, you've got nothing.

Considering the lies you've been buying, you're really not in a place to make such shrill-sounding claims.

To what end? And give me an example of this actually happening. It's all a very elaborate ruse, I'm sure. And Hillary killed Vince Foster. And she is perhaps the devil. I know. And she intentionally allowed all the deaths at Benghazi and she is a communist and she's too centrist and her voice is shrill and she's a lesbian. Yeah yeah yeah. I know.

It's not the particular incident, it's the pattern of incidents. It's not the one act, it's the series of acts in most corruption cases. People who know how to skirt the ruled just don't come out and brazenly skirt the rules, the pattern needs to be proven via conduct.
