Is speech making honest money?
by PercyVer

Doesn't the answer have to be: Maybe?

The phenom of six figure fees, ntm multi-million dollar fortunes, for speeching by those who have or seek political power is fairly new; and its obvious many good questions haven't even been raised, let alone answered.

Is it OK for the Senate chair of a committee to get a fee for speaking to an association whose members the committee might affect? How about the chair's spouse?

Billary takes this to Whole 'Nother Level. And not just about speeches.

Astoundingly, they are in denial about the questions, or have decided to Hope No One Brings That Up. Hence the tax return delay. If its just some no-name reporter, you Hoot him away.

OC we are all supposed to read that Hoot/Guffaw as: "That no-good Bleep I stay married to, & pretend to love and respect, has no influence on me whatever. If Dummies with Money want to shower it on him, So? And btw, this is so obvious I have to laugh in your face for not knowing". Right..
