Canada claims that no such law prevents these from being released.Originally Posted by Visbek
This is the most corrupt family that ever held the office. You can throw out all the trumped-up moral equivalencies you want, but nothing compares to this mafia-like duo of power freaks.
That's the real point here.
Yes, the Clinton's are corrupt. But if we want to vote for a candidate that's not been corrupted by money in 2016, we'll have to choose whichever bunch of whackos is way down ballot and who collectively won't get 5% of the vote. What's worse is the same thing will be true for any Senate candidate in a competitive race who might have $10 or $20 million dropped in the race by c4s and the like, from secret donors, no matter the party.
There are no Canadian federal laws to that effect. The Foundation is in British Columbia, which has more restrictive privacy laws. They are very likely still pushing it, but it sounds fairly typical.

Yes, much more corrupt than Nixon, who hired aides to break into the offices of political opponents, and played so fast and loose with campaign cash (remember CREEP?) that it sparked off a wave of campaign funding laws; more corrupt than Ulysses S Grant, whose administration fostered such endemic corruption it threatened the entire nation.
No, wait, I lied. Nixon and Grant were certainly far more corrupt than the Clintons. So were a few others, I'm sure.

Sorry dude, but "secret cash = secret cash." If you're going to blast Hillary for this (which is fine actually), then you ought to be in a righteous indignation about EVERY candidate in EVERY election which has taken or benefitted from anonymous donations. (Exceptions can be made for anyone who makes a good-faith effort to close the SuperPAC loopholes or enact campaign finance reform, such as John McCain.)
Good thing you put so much thought into that rebuttal, otherwise it might have been laughably incomplete...

It is the road map to how Obama is going to fund all his exotic golf vacations all across the world after he can no longer change it to the tax payers.
The Gruber-crat is strong in this one!
What would democrats expect from a one percenter? But she's looking out for the little people!

I call my own shots, largely based on an accumulation of data, and everyone knows it.

The Clinton Foundation has an unusual structure, in that it does a lot of the work with its own staffers. The travel and salary costs are going largely to charitable works. What conservatives are decrying as "excess spending" uses criteria that doesn't apply to the Clinton Foundation.
It sounds like the 88% figure is inflated, but not by an excessive amount. It's also difficult for charity watchdogs like Charity Navigator to rate, because it works so differently from most charities.
But hey, don't let something like nuance get in the way of a good slam, amirite?

"Fly-over" country voted, and The Donald is now POTUS.
I gave obvious bull hockey all the thought that it deserved.
Yeah, the Clintons are all special. The rules don't apply to them. They even have special rules for how their fund runs.
You are foisting on us the most openly corrupt presidential candidate that this nation has ever seen. I really don't know how you can live with yourselves.

Which rules about how they spend their money did they break?
