Speeches don’t put food on the table. ~Hillary Clinton

While I know what Clinton means to say by this, it’s a bit rich for her to say this when one of the principal sources of her family’s income over the last eight years has been…Bill Clinton’s speechmaking.  Meanwhile, I think Mike Huckabee would also dissent from this claim, since he has been very explicit recently that making speeches does put food on his table (albeit low-cal, non-fat food, which barely qualifies).   

Then again, if you put food on the table, where will you put all of the options?
