Was Hillary asked last night about Mark Penn & Colombia?
I didn't think so. Half the debate on "gotcha politics" and nothing about that conflict of interest? Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.

1. funny that she wasn't asked about associations involving actual conflicts of interest...
involving issues that might actually matter in terms of the Presidency

ABC is a mickey mouse network

3. What question would you like asked?
Was it illegal? What was wrong with the meeting, other than Clinton opposes the agreement?

6. The question that should be asked. How can you be against the
Columbia Trade Agreement when you and President Clinton have benefited
by $800,000 in personal income for President Clinton's support of that agreement. At least as important as Wright or flag pins.

9. well that has nothing to do with Penn's meeting
And since she opposes the agreement, she's got a pretty good answer for the charge of conflict of interest.

12. What does that have to do with Penn
and why should she give it back?

4. What a relevant question in a state that has suffered significant job losses
due to unfair trade practices? An issue about which Pennsylvanians are greatly concerned? That would be elitist. Let's talk about flag pins instead. :mad:

11. Hillary owes Penn $10 million, can't ditch him because of that
its like some sort of revolving credit, can't get out.


The labor unions have to know this stinks and that they can't trust her.
