Fiorina's HP Earned Millions From Sales in Iran

Again, there is nothing wrong nor hypocritical with operating within a law to your advantage while speaking against that law.

I don't think I agree. If I say x is wrong, but do it because it's legal, that seems the very definition of hypocracy. It's like when Ds complain about super PACs while raising a billon with them.

Did I say they? I thought this was about just her... does every ceo know every sale?

Do you suppose HP’s general manager for the Middle East sales wouldn't report to the top? Are you suggesting that she knew Middle East sales were up and praised that but had no idea what countries were involved? So she's an idiot as a CEO?

I am simply suggesting that a CEO of a large, multi-national corporation isn't privy to every transaction. Sales to 3rd party vendors in the ME is what is on the HP books, not who the 3rd parties are selling to.

Much like the US can sell guns to group X - but have no idea that same group X is then selling to ISIS (until after the fact).
