Does Bill have dementia?

People used to argue that Bill was courting bad health by going to McDonalds as often as he did. I never really believed that grabbing a Big Mac after a jog would do him harm, but, eventually it did.
 
I don't understand those who live in capitalism, believe in capitalism, but criticise others for making money. I suppose its the drugs.

OT but it cracks me up when people complain (not you, anybody) about the size of speaking fees. No organization has to offer $65K or $200K or whatever number people gripe about HRC taking. I mean, picture this: "Madame Secretary, we are offering you $150K to speak at our ____________ on October 11." HRC: "Oh no, I couldn't possibly accept that much. I'll do it for $15K."

What numbskull would turn down a big fee if offered? And what foolish organization would offer a fee of more than they could afford?

Short of charging large fees to a university of non profit maybe I completely agree with you. If someone wants to pay you, me or anyone a large amount to speak of course we'll take it.

No one is going to say "well thanks for offering me $100K to speak but I feel I'm worth only $50K."

Speaking fees are the market at work.
 
I have a problem when people running for POTUS give Wall st speeches that pay up to 200k,and then are held secret.
Clinton defers to "well I wasn't running" -which is typical Clintonism at work .

She's the big donor candidate as it is, and not releasing them just makes her more the plutocrats they are

As a speaker she is boring. Obama excellent speaker. Bill Clinton excellent speaker. Ronald Reagan excellent speaker. Those are some examples of our political best.

Chelsea Clinton is not good. Like I said she lost her job at NBC because she wasn't.

How much do you get per speech, sour grapes?

Does that ultimately matter? The organization can decide on their own whether they think the fee is worth it. That's the market at work. No one is putting a gun to the head of the organization to hire her as a speaker.

it matters to the defense that "its what they offer, she would be crazy not to accept it"........nobody is stupid enough to think the speaker doesn't tell the sponsor how much they will have to pay.....

You definitely have a point. At a certain (high) level speakers can and do name their price.

Were they public speeches?
What makes you think you are entitled to free content that someone else paid dearly for?

LOL, are the Clinton's related to you? Why do you take almost everything said about them as if a personal attack on your manhood or your family?

The demonisation of Hillary is now complete. Your dishonest butt-buddy
anatta will not let a thread or a day pass without an attempt to discredit her.
What has this accomplished?
A situation where a megalomaniacal narcissist with zero governing ability/experience, zero foreign policy knowledge and a bigger tweeter following than the other candidates combined has a chance to carry the football.
Anyone who isn't fighting balls to thewall to prevent a Trump presidency is in collusion with Trump.
Is mass hysteria possible?
Clearly, but the danger is that only partial hysteria (witness anatta, always stupid but formerly sane) could elect this cult of personality to be King of the world.

As a single issue votor (gun rights) I am terified of Hillary.
As a human with children I am 100 times more alarmed by a Trump presidency.

Now, that aside, how much do you get per speech?
Oh really?
Not even a tenth of one percent of Chelsea? Yet you critizise her speaking?
Lol

Rune, if you think Chelsea gets paid $65K to give a speech because she is a dynamic speaker I have a $100K five bedroom home with Bay views to sell you in San Francisco.

I already applauded for her being able to get that type of money per speech. That doesn't mean I can't comment on her ability as a speaker.
