Hypocrisy, Thy Name is ... Hillary, too!

Remember the vote Nancy Pelosi didn't want to bring before Congress? (At least before the elections) Turns out, there's more to it than I previously suspected! Here's at least one good reason Hillary doesn't want this issue to come to a vote:
PITTSBURGH, Pennsylvania (CNN) – Hillary Clinton used her trademark laugh Thursday to deflect a question about the $800,000 her husband earned in 2005 giving speeches for a Bogota-based group that supports the Colombia free trade agreement — the same trade deal she currently opposes.

Asked by CNN if those earnings represented a conflict of interest given that she has dipped into her family's pocketbook to pay campaign bills, Clinton threw up her hands and laughed loudly for several seconds.


She publicly opposes it to pander to union voters. Her husband accepts over three quarter of a million dollars to support it.
She either ticks off Bill's gravy train or her voters with a public vote on the matter. No wonder Hillary wants to avoid going on the record!
