I am a liberal feminist. Also a political junkie. May I share an observation?

18. I know all I need to know.

Sure chalk it all up to right wing smears - you're crying WOLF.

You can wrap it up in a nice bow and call it "Speaking Fees" - or whatever you'd like. Bribery is still Bribery. When it's accepted under the guise of "Speaking Fees" it's a lot less messy though. Straight into the bank account (150 mil dollars).

In corrupt countries it's usually done by accepting a suitcase full of money. It's dirty though, cause the money's gotta be cleaned through money laundering.

Much more palatable to sing a little for the bribe, that ways it's all better, especially when the people you claim to represent accept the ruse without question.

Such is the way of corruption.
