seems like many coincidences of Bill getting big buck speaking fees from entities with business before Hillary Inc....but probably just all "coincidence"

as is the coincidence the right can't prove a thing

But I guess speaking fee's are only acceptable for those you agree with

1. Current Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump is one of the highest-paid public speakers in the world, reportedly reeling in up to $1.5 million per speech. 2. Former Alaska governor Sarah Palin, the 2008 Republican vice presidential nominee, reportedly charges as much as $115,000 for engagements.

But OMG a Bill a great speaker got paid

you can't see the difference?

the two that you mentioned did/do so as private citizens

the Clinton Crime Syndicate does so under the guise of public service and charity while railing against many of those that pay them lucrative fees and even for some looking for government benefits and contracts

good grief....

wake up dude

http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/bill-...inglePage=true

"After his wife became Secretary of State, former President Bill Clinton began to collect speaking fees that often doubled or tripled what he had been charging earlier in his post White House years, bringing in millions of dollars from groups that included several with interests pending before the State Department, an ABC News review of financial disclosure records shows"

The former president collected large payments from companies with global interests such Canada’s TD Bank, which had an interest in the Keystone Pipeline, a subject of intense lobbying in Washington. In just one week in March of 2011, Clinton collected $1.3 million giving speeches in Nigeria, Brazil and Grand Cayman.

One instance where the State Department did raise questions about a speech recipient came in 2012, when President Clinton requested to speak at an aviation conference sponsored in part by an organization called the Shanghai Airport Authority. The audience was billed as “6,000 business leaders, government officials, and high net worth individuals.” The State Department ethics officer, Kathryn Youel Page, flagged the request in an email back to the former president’s office indicating the sponsor had ties to the People’s Republic of China (PRC) government.(Hey LOOK - COMMUNISTS)

I guess they're admired in a Bonnie and Clyde sort of way.....
