Can't say what is worse, [Rudy] charging a fee to a charity or them paying it. That type of thing really gives charitable groups a bad name.

I wonder why the liberal blog you got this from didn't mention that another famous political figure who charges charities even more to speak.




I suppose Raw might excuse its one sided coverage by arguing that Bill isn't a candidate.

However, by law, any money Bill earns is counted as income for his wife, who is also a candidate for President. So there would an equally valid basis for his fees to come under scrutiny also.



Oh, and guess where Billary may be getting most of their big bucks these days?

MUSLIM countries!

    as Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton continues her campaign for the Democrat presidential nomination, renewed focus is being placed on exactly how the Clintons have made their millions in just the past six years.

    Wall Street insiders are abuzz over estimates that Bill Clinton alone may have roped in more than $200 million in funds from the Emir of Dubai and other individuals based in the United Arab Emirates.


    Clinton has made a number of trips to the UAE in recent years, collecting appearance and speaking fees estimated at more than $300,000 per. The former president has also served as what one Clinton insider calls an "investment adviser" to some of the UAE's wealthiest men, and stands to collect fees in the hundreds of thousands of dollars for brokering the partnerships and investment deals that move forward through investment and real estate firms in New York and Europe.

    Clinton also collected a consulting fee for work on the early iterations of the Dubai Ports deal in 2006, passing work to his former secretary of state, Madeleine Albright, and other members of his administration inner circle.

    More than a few million of Arab money ended up in the Clinton Library, where the former President maintains a residence. Millions poured into the facility from the Saudi royal family and the governments of Dubai, Kuwait, Qatar, and Brunei.
