HILLARY CLINTON DEFENDS USE OF CORPORATE JET FOR FAMILY VACATIONS

On Wednesday, Hillary Clinton was challenged by the press about the Clinton family’s acceptance of more than $900,000 in free private travel from Infousa, a company linked to scamming the elderly.
Her reply? She said that she had complied with all Senate ethics rules and reimbursed the company for the amount of a first class air ticket — usually about 1 percent of the cost of the luxurious private jet travel. According to Hillary, “Those were the rules. You’ll have to ask someone else if it’s good policy.”
In other words, get lost.

I agree with Dick. Hilary just doesn’t get it. For a supposedly smart woman, she’s tone deaf in what the public perception is. As a kid the good nuns used to say, “behave, as if you were going to have to tell your mother what you did”. Good advice that has served me well. They say conscience is what you do when you think no one is watching. In this case, Hilary’s doing anything she thinks she can. She may well believe the story she’s telling. It’s sad. The “elite” think themselves above the rules that they force others to follow.
Argh!
