“watching Bill and Hillary explain their finances reminds me of an old Steve Martin routine in which he explains how to make $1 million without paying taxes. First, he says, get $1 million. Then, when the IRS comes to ask why you have not paid your taxes, remember two simple words. I forgot. I forgot I had $1 million. I forgot that the laws of the United States require us to pay taxes. I forgot we had laws. Hillary forgot she made money in the commodities market. Then she forgot to pay taxes on the profit. Meanwhile, Bill forgot he bought his mother a house. Collectively, they forgot all about their wheeling-dealing ways when it came time to criticise Republicans for greed. Yes, you cannot condemn the Clintons for their shortcomings, because, whatever it is that they did, they did not do it intentionally--they simply forgot. Now apparently, Bill has forgotten he is President of the United States. That explains why he is still out campaigning instead of dealing with the day-to-day work that goes with the job. My advice to Bill is that he better start remembering. Otherwise, come November, the voters won't forget.”
