Democracy NOW! DN! - Dr. Paul Farmer addresses a new report in The Nation magazine that alleges shelters funded by the Clinton Foundation turned out to be a series of trailers beset with problems including mold, shoddy construction and in one case, worrying levels of formaldehyde.

The trailers were built by the same company, Clayton Homes, that is currently being sued in U.S. for providing formaldehyde-laced trailers for residents displaced after Hurricane Katrina.

Democracy Now! recently spoke to the authors of the investigation, Isabel Macdonald and Isabeau Doucet, who called on the Clinton Foundation to respond to their findings.

1. So Bill Clinton was not trying to kill people?
What a disappointment.

2. Paul Farmer is a great humanitarian
He should be given the Nobel Peace Prize for his work not just in Haiti but in so many forgotten places of the world.

6. Complete dodge of questions.
He doesn't know about the actual shelters.

Offers nothing new to the discussion of these toxic trailers.
