WHAT ELSE WOULD YOU EXPECT FROM A CORRUPT POLITICIAN AS MS H. ROTEM-CLINTOOON?

[wagglebee]

I originally posted it to extended news, it was moved to bloggers. I presume it is because there are already multiple stories about Clinton and Hsu.

[layman]

Clinton says she will give to charity the $23,000 in contributions she received from Hsu

What she "says" she will do and what she actually does are often two different things. My bet is that she will NOT give this money to charity.

[Maceman]

That’s James Carville. Everybody knows that.

TOM FITTON, STOP EVOKING PETER PAUL'S NAME TO RAISE MONEY FOR YOUR ORGANIZATION, AND FINALLY ACCOUNT FOR THE MILLIONS RAISED FOR HIS CASE. THANKS.

[doug from upland]

Wait until you see the 2-page fax being sent to Hillary’s office and reporters. Her head is going to explode.

[Lurker]

JW must be planning another 'fundraiser'.

He probably figures he’s safer in jail than on the street where a fatal accident could occur more easily. If I were he, I’d be begging for solitary!

Ran across this today at Cybercast News (CNSNews):

excerpt:

Also, Hillary Clinton’s 2000 Senate campaign was involved in an illegal in-kind contribution from Hollywood mogul Peter Paul. That incident resulted in a $35,000 fine by the Federal Elections Committee and the indictment and later acquittal of her finance director, David Rosen.

“There is a group of people who believe Hillary Clinton is corrupt and won’t vote for her,” Fitton said. “Then there is a group who thinks she’s a political hero and can do no wrong. A situation like this will give pause to those in the middle, which can make or break a presidential campaign.”

Original article on Peter Paul’s case in CNS

http://www.cnsnews.com/ViewPrint.asp?Page=/Politics/archive/200706/POL20070629a.html

excerpt:

“When it comes to the Clintons, they are generally immune to public condemnation regarding ethical lapses and violations of the law,” Rose told Cybercast News Service. “If this case continues into the general election, we’ll see how it affects swing voters and independents, but it is not going to derail her bid for the nomination. I still remember Bill Clinton’s polls, and two-thirds of voters said they didn’t trust him but voted for him irrespective of his morality or ethics.”

Even critics of Clinton don’t think the case will harm her politically.

“She’s going to hold the highest office in the country. She’s got the money, the organization and the FBI files,” James Nesfield, president of the Equal Justice Foundation of America (EJFA), said in an interview.

Nesfield, who helped the New York State Attorney General’s office target corporate corruption, is not a disinterested party, having bought the troubled Stan Lee Media firm.

He said the EJFA’s broad and longer-term aim is to inform government and corporate whistleblowers of their rights and encourage them to come forward, but its key focus for the immediate future will be educating the public about the Paul case.

If Clinton won’t face justice, the public should at least know of her misdeeds, Nesfield said.

“I’m not anti-Hillary,” he added. “I’m just anti-not following the law.”

wth???

Time to remind CNSNews about Friday unless you already have done that, in which case...ignore me. LOL.

I presume CNS knows, but I will put a new post up about that hearing and my speech later that night.

Hillary is outsourcing her fund sourcing... to Indians.

Questions About The Clintons’ Indian Money Man

Sant S. Chatwal, an Indian American businessman, has helped raise hundreds of thousands of dollars for Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton’s campaigns, even as he battled governments on two continents to escape bankruptcy and millions of dollars in tax liens.

What did Chatwell buy for his money?

...the FDIC abruptly settled the case, agreeing on Dec. 18, 2000, to let Chatwal pay $125,000 for the loans that it had said caused at least $12 million in losses.

Chatwal is a Trustee of the William J. Clinton Foundation, a Charitable foundation organized by President Clinton focusing on global issues of health security, economic empowerment (HIV/AIDS Initiative; Clinton Global Initiative, Urban Enterprise Initiative, Healthier Generation, etc.) …

Chatwal has devoted resources to political causes, working very closely with the Democratic Party, in particular with Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton, Senator John Kerry, Senator Charles Schumer, Congresswoman Nancy Pelosi and Congressman Joseph Crowley.
...
He is now on “Hillary Clinton for President Exploratory Committee”.
