Former senior White
House ethics officials have said a new Hillary Clinton administration would
have to take careful steps to ensure that past foundation donors would not have
the same access as she allowed at the State Department. Clinton campaign
spokesman Brian Fallon did not respond directly to the Associated Press’s questions
recently about Clinton transition plans regarding ethics, but said in a
statement Tuesday that the standard set by the Clinton Foundation's
ethics restrictions was "unprecedented, even if it may never
satisfy some critics." (Emphasis mine).
In one sense, he may be correct.
What is unprecedented is the
Foundation’s lack of ethics restrictions.
And its chutzpah.
