Hillary Clinton, just one of the little people.

hotels that she chooses anywhere in the world, including Las

speeches to also provide a private jet for transportation — only
a $39 million, 16-passenger Gulfstream G450 or larger will do.

> And she doesn’t travel alone, relying on an entourage of a
couple of “travel aides,” and a couple of advance staffers who
check out her speech site in the days leading up to her
appearance, much like a White House trip, according to her
contract and supporting documents concerning her Oct. 13 speech
at a University of Nevada, Las Vegas Foundation fundraiser. The
documents were obtained by the Las Vegas Review-Journal through
the state public records law...

> ...“It is agreed that Speaker will be the only person on the
stage during her remarks,” according to the May 13 contract the
Harry Walker Agency signed for Clinton’s keynote address at the
Bellagio.
>
> According to her standard speaking contract, Clinton will
remain at the event no longer than 90 minutes; will pose for no
more than 50 photos with no more than 100 people; and won’t
allow any press coverage or video- or audio-taping of her
speech.
>
> The only record allowed will be made by a stenographer whose
transcription will be given only to Clinton. The stenographer’s
$1,250 bill, however, will go to the UNLV Foundation.
>
> The foundation, meanwhile, is prohibited from advertising the
event on radio, TV or billboards. Mail and website ads are
allowed, although Clinton staffers must approve in writing any
promotional material. One unhappy UNLV Foundation official in an
email complained of “meddling” after Clinton’s agency edited a
description of the annual dinner to “dumb it down.”
>
> And Clinton’s demand for approval of all website material
before it hits the Internet prompted a UNLV Web designer to
grouse in an email that it seems “assbackwards in my mind.”

And you think that's unusual for speakers in Clinton's tier?
She was S of S and her hubby was POTUS. Her "Little People"
days are long, long gone.

That's fine. But don't try to deny who and what you are simply
to get some votes. The motives behind it are so clear that even
your hardest core liberals should be able to see it. I'll
anxiously wait for the comparisons to Romney.....
Oh wait, she actually pays taxes and grocery shops, unlike the
other rich people.

Lol a few years ago I was in a tavern in Chicago. The guy
sitting next to me was the doorman at the Hilton. Clinton was
president and was in town someone asked this guy if he was
staying at the Hilton. He was an Irish fellow, and with his
brogue he said ,"sure he pulled up in the limo and asked if we
had any rooms abailable". I almost wet my pants. Well maybe you
had to be there :D

Meh. They are both wealthy people trying to pretend they're
just one of us.
Oh, speaking of Romney...Ms Clinton has released 30 years of tax
returns. Doesn't Romney still keep his hidden?

Romney released his 2010 and 2011 tax returns. Just a little
twist on the truth right? Is it a law at you that must release
your tax returns? Let's not forget, he hasn't paid taxes for
ten or so years before running, well, according to that liar
Harry Reid. We should just accept his story right?

Nope. See the question mark?
If it were Romney releasing 30 years and the Clinton's only 2, I
can't imagine the reaction would be to defend the Clintons, lol.
Heck, it appears everything from Birth Certificates to College
Transcripts are mandatory these days, lest the conspiracy
theories start.

You left out draft and or service records. Remember Romney was
criticized for being in France or where ever he was. Bush's
service record. Hillary, I think we already know what we need
to know about Hillary. She wants to be president, has always
wanted to be president and will do whatever it takes to be
president, no matter who gets in her way.

No, it hasn't been until the last decade or so that being rich
has become a really toxic thing.

Probably a product of the 1%'s wealth exploding over the last
decade while middle class has been stagnant or losing ground.
People don't complain when they are fat and happy. The middle
class hasn't been.
