Hillary Clinton Advises Rep. Weiner's Pregnant Wife: Did Hillary Really Say This?

Here's Hillary's Advice to Weiner's Wife

Hillary Clinton's advice to Rep. Anthony Weiner's wife, Huma?

Turns out, Hillary Clinton, (the Secretary of State), is sexting-sensation Rep. Anthony D. Weiner's wife's boss and longtime friend. Does Hillary regret standing by her man?

 

To:  Huma Abedin, Deputy Chief of Staff of State

From: Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton

Subject: On Standing and Men

Dear Huma:

We have a long personal and professional history and much good work still to do together. We're jetting off to Northern Africa for a global diplomacy trip so before we get all diplomatic, I feel compelled to offer you this advice.

As a woman of a certain age and experience, I cannot let you continue on this road. I've known you since 1996 when I was First Lady and you were my intern. You've been my longtime aide, my trusted personal assistant. I have invested a significant amount of time, training and mentoring in you. I have schooled you in grave matters of public policy, diplomacy, international law, human rights and how to wear pant suits.
