Clintons roasted over intern job listing demanding high level of ‘discretion’: 'Say no'
NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
The Clinton Foundation is hiring for positions in the personal offices of former President Bill Clinton and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton — a paid "special projects associate" for his office and an unpaid intern for hers — and conservatives are having a field day with the titles.
"Love how it’s the same job but for Bill Clinton they couldn’t call it an ‘internship,’" wrote James Laverty, rapid response director for Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas.
The jobs appear to have some overlapping administrative duties but are not the same. Hillary Clinton’s unpaid internship includes research, scheduling, briefing memos and event support, while Bill Clinton’s paid associate role requires a bachelor’s degree and includes executive support, communications and managing special projects.

"Why, was there some sort of controversy involving Bill Clinton and an intern or something," joked Michael Knowles.
"If Bill Clinton asks you to do a special project, say no," said conservative commentator Steve Guest. He added "my gosh" in another X post reacting to the listing.
Both listings also use the word "discretion." Bill Clinton’s position calls for "using discretion in scheduling," while Hillary Clinton’s internship requires a "high level of professionalism and discretion."

"Where is Sgt. Hans Schultz when you need him? Hillary Clinton is seeking an intern ‘with a high level’ of ‘discretion’ to work for free. Applicants might want to Google this one," wrote Jonathan Turley referencing the show "Hogan's Heroes."
Several of the posts referenced the scandal that erupted publicly in 1998 over Clinton’s sexual relationship with Lewinsky, who was a 22-year-old White House intern when the relationship began in 1995.

Lewinsky later turned over a navy blue dress she said she wore during a 1997 sexual encounter with Clinton to Starr’s Office of Independent Counsel. FBI testing concluded Clinton was the source of DNA obtained from a semen stain on the dress.
"Bold of HilDawg to be in Monica Blue," wrote Charles Correll III, speech writer for Senate Majority Whip Sen. John Barrasso, R-Wyo., referencing the color of Hillary’s shirt in the photo.
