But the April 24 First Read column on NBCNews.com admits, "upon reflection, that Times article doesn't hold up that well 24 hours after its publication."
Indeed, a series of facts supports NBC's conclusion and unravels the innuendo in the Times piece:


  • Ian Telfer, who was Uranium One's chairman at the time it was being taken over by Rosatom, did donate money to the Clinton Foundation. However, he told the Financial Post that he committed those funds to the Foundation in 2008, "before Uranium One had any negotiations with the Russians, and the donations he has made since then were part of that initial pledge." Hillary Clinton also did not become secretary of state until 2009.


  • Frank Giustra, a Canadian businessman who the Times noted also donated to the Clinton Foundation and who owned the predecessor to Uranium One before its sale to the Russians, sold his personal stake in the company in 2007. The proposed sale of Uranium One occurred in 2010. Giustra himself released a statement criticizing the Times' reporting, calling it "wildly speculative, innuendo-laced," and inaccurate, and noting that contrary to the Times' claim that Bill Clinton had flown with him to conclude a stage in the Uranium deal, "Bill Clinton had nothing to do with" that purchase.


  • The State Department only had one vote on the nine-member Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS) that approved the deal. Other agencies, including the Departments of Defense, Homeland Security, Energy, Commerce, and Justice, also weighed in.


  • The chairman of the CFIUS is the Treasury secretary, not secretary of state.


  • Rosatom had to get approval from the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, which is an independent agency outside of the secretary of state's influence.


  • Utah's local nuclear regulator also had to sign off on the deal, as it involved mills in the state.


  • Former assistant secretary of state Jose Fernandez, who was the State Department's principal representative on CFIUS, said, "Secretary Clinton never intervened with me on any CFIUS matter."

Other media outlets have found that this and additional allegations in Schweizer's book about donations to the Clinton Foundation are unpersuasive. Time magazine noted that Schweizer's allegation about Uranium One "is based on little evidence," and "offers no indication of Hillary Clinton's personal involvement in, or even knowledge of the deliberations," while CNN's Chris Cuomo noted that the "the examples that have come out so far in [The New York Times] were not that impressive." ABC News reported that Clinton Cash "offers no proof that Hillary Clinton took any direct action to benefit the groups and interests that were paying her husband," while Fox News' Ed Henry noted "there's a lot that's murky" in Schweitzer's claims.

Let the Hillary threads begin!

American Jobs

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

As we get closer to the 2016 election year, US citizens must remember that they cannot trust Hillary Clinton to create American jobs.
The last time she had a meaningful job, she outsourced it to Monica Lewinsky. ... And Monica blew it.

The Lewinsky affair was a ploy to elicit sympathy for Hillary to help her years down the road with her presidential campaign. Yep Hillary actually hired Monica to do what she did, and then she had to show fake outrage when the truth was revealed. Bill wasn't supposed to lie about it though, and that's where the plan backfired. Now it's working against her because clearly the affair was all her fault. In fact, at one point, Monica was getting tired of the gig and wanted to back out of it. Hillary actually held her by the ears and forced her to perform.

I think people tend to forget that every time a husband strays from his marriage vows the wife is to blame. It is the way God intended for things to be and we are fortunate as a nation to have Conservatives and Fox News to remind us of this fact.

I used to think that Rush Limbaugh's outrage was fueled by his jealousy of Bill. Then I realized that he was jealous of Monica, because she was getting all kinds of top quality Cuban cigars.

Hillary Visits a School

Hillary Clinton goes to a gifted-student primary school in New York to talk about the world. After her talk she offers question time. One little boy puts up his hand. Hillary asks him what his name is.

"Kenneth.”

"And what is your question, Kenneth?"

"I have three questions:
First - whatever happened in Benghazi ?
Second - why would you run for President after your husband shamed the office?
Third –whatever happened to the missing 6 billion dollars while you were Secretary of State?"
Just then the bell rings for recess. Hillary Clinton informs the kiddies that they will continue after recess.

When they resume Hillary says, "Okay where were we? Oh, that's right, question time. Who has a question?" A different boy—little Johnny--puts his hand up; Hillary points to him and asks him what his name is.

"Johnny."

"And what is your question, Johnny?"
"I have five questions:

First - whatever happened in Benghazi ?
Second - why would you run for President after your husband shamed the office?
Third- whatever happened to the missing 6 billion dollars while you were Secretary of State?"
Fourth - why did the recess bell go off 20 minutes early?
Fifth - where's Kenneth?
