This is not what I was talking about and you know it. Please don't lay shit on me that doesn't apply. Real nice by the way, lumping a Turkic American group building a relationship with politicians together with the government of Qatar donating to the secretary of state's foundation.
As for the Qatar donation thing, that is bad that she didn't report the donation. Someone or other claimed that they didn't see it as a meaningful increase (and thus not required to report), but... Anyway, the donations are no surprise. Shouldn't be legal for a top level member of government to be linked to such donations, but it is (maybe these emails can help change that). The failure to report (reporting was set up to try and prevent people from suspicion of foreign influence, hardy-har-har) is stupid, since the donation is in the books clear as day. If you don't hide the donation itself then just report it, duh.

"and how do we explain to people that we’ll take > money from a corporate lobbyist but not them; that the Foundation takes $ > from foreign govts but we now won’t."
http://www.nytimes.com/2012/12/06/world/africa/weapons-sent-to-libyan-rebels-with-us-approval-fell-into-islamist-hands.html "The Obama administration did not initially raise objections when Qatar began shipping arms to opposition groups in Syria" "The administration has never determined where all of the weapons, paid for by Qatar and the United Arab Emirates, went inside Libya, officials said." "NATO air and sea forces around Libya had to be alerted not to interdict the cargo planes and freighters transporting the arms into Libya from Qatar and the emirates, American officials said." "In March 2011, just as the Libyan civil war was intensifying, Mr. Turi realized that Libya could be a lucrative new market, and applied to the State Department for a license to provide weapons to the rebels there, according to e-mails and other documents he has provided. (American citizens are required to obtain United States approval for any international arms sales.) Mr. Turi’s application for a license was rejected in late March 2011. Undeterred, he applied again, this time stating only that he planned to ship arms worth more than $200 million to Qatar. In May 2011, his application was approved. Mr. Turi, in an interview, said that his intent was to get weapons to Qatar and that what “the U.S. government and Qatar allowed from there was between them.” Two months later, though, his home near Phoenix was raided by agents from the Department of Homeland Security. Administration officials say he remains under investigation in connection with his arms dealings. The Justice Department would not comment. Mr. Turi said he believed that United States officials had shut down his proposed arms pipeline because he was getting in the way of the Obama administration’s dealings with Qatar. The Qataris, he complained, imposed no controls on who got the weapons. “They just handed them out like candy,” he said."
"The Clinton Foundation has confirmed it accepted a $1 million gift from Qatar while Hillary Clinton was U.S. secretary of state without informing the State Department"
All this reminds me of the outrage that liberals/progressives had over the Bush adminstrations shadiness. Brings back some vivid memories. Many of these liberals/progressives wanted to see bush and dick behind bars.
I think I'm coming to an end with all this... I'm starting to feel that their really is no hope. More then likely Clinton will get away with all this, in the sense that she'll be able to move on and become president, but I'll tell you something - the people surrounding her will go down .. A pardon will be their only hope. Clinton will be held on check worse then bush. She's going to be all alone once she becomes president. If one of her top people is busted, and they spill the beans, it's going to be on. Just like illegal networks operate- once one guy cracks the walls start to crumble shortly after that.

Podesta is looking like a real creep with the satanic stuff these things with children.
Wall St appointed his cabinet? I remember what Romney said about pulling down our Obama posters because of disappointment. I guess we were duped.
Only if you were politically naive. I'm surprised you didn't learn your lesson when Obama was (predictably) soft on the banks.
Hard to keep up with everything when I didn't have the time and was fooled. Life is about learning and making improvements.
You'll get there one day.
Hahaha, coming from someone who thinks it's news that a presidential candidate has a PR team and doesn't write her own speeches. You will get here one day!
This man has sacrificed his life and those he loves, all for you. He and Snowden are patriots fighting for justice and transparency. We owe them our respect and our support. Assange deserves to hold his wife and kids again.

Hmmmmm... I think you're taking something i posted out of context. I never said those words. I'm not completely naive and you're ignoring the greater issue. But at least I have the balls to admit my faults.
I certainly don't want to be anywhere you are- way to kill someone's hope.
80 billion dollars in arms sales. Shit you conservatives are worried about liberals trying to take your guns away? These motherf'ers aren't stupid! They know the amount of money there is to be made from dealing in guns!!

"Coincidentally we met a donor recently *(Yossie Hollander) who is interested in this specific issue in Africa so perhaps we can connect him with Burundi folks and/or if WJC wants we could explore a programmatic role for CF."

attachment from foundation attorney... a number of staff members requested that the contents of their interview be treated as confidential and not shared with anyone other than you, for fear of retribution......

He's a pedophile. Are you sure you want him to hold his kids again? What about how he is manipulating the American public now instead of having the people's best interests in mind? What about his total lack of transparency?

"Dig deeper and you'll see that it's also about what currency the oil is sold in. So long as the US Dollar is the defacto reserve currency, the US government can continue to export inflation. Look at what happens when oil rich nations think about selling oil in Euros or a basket of currencies, or even establish a gold standard."

And admit that the waters

You'll be drenched to the bone
And if your breath to you is worth saving

Come writers and critics
Who prophesize with your pen
And keep your eyes wide
The chance won't come again
And don't speak too soon
For the wheel's still in spin
And there's no telling who that it's naming
For the loser now will be later to w
