This whole Clinton Foundation issue that now has everyone in a tizzy is just as stupid as the others. A) I don't know why people would think that

it's strange that people who give significant sums to a charity that is focused on global initiatives would also have a reason to meet with the state department. B) Are there lists of influential people domestic or abroad that were unable to get a meeting with the state department because they didn't give to the Clinton Foundation? I doubt it. C) Is there any indication that policy was affected or undermined by these meetings? I doubt they were meeting with North Korea because Kim Jung Un made a donation. D) The congressmen and senators that will meet with any lobbyist that will help them out are really making an issue of this? E) The Clinton Foundation is out there trying to do good in the world. Why shouldn't they meet with people who may be able to help in a different way.
They're going to wind up doing to the Clinton Foundation what they did to ACORN. They're going to kill something that is doing good just out of spite.
