He comes from a crooked family. His father stole at least $10 Million from investors and still owes at least $9.4 Million.
I guess birds of a feather......
As long as she’s not running for office it’s really irrelevant. But geez, you got Bill for a daddy and this guy for a daddy-in-law. I hope Chelsea has a happy life with her new husband and stays away from politics.
Miss Clinton’s dress, designed by Oscar de la Renta or Vera Wang, is rumoured to be a cool $24,000, and the jewellery she wears on the day is worth $250,000. The cake alone will cost $10,000 !!!!!!!!!!!
Chelsea's new step-dad Ed Mezvinsky is finally our of jail, (after an 8 year sentence,) Did you read about that anywhere else in all the wedding coverage???) ----
so now is your chance to read up on all the sordid details of his 20+ years long history of financial fraud of his friends and clients ---
and the $10,000,000 that he netted ---
after FAILING to cheat the Nigerians out of their money first!!!!
Who in the world has NOT heard of Nigerian scams ???
How dumb could this ex-Congressman possibly be?
Yet note that both Mezvinsky jr. and Chelsea Victoria jr went to Stanford University (when she wasn't falling down drunk at her many parties in London).
Does anyone here really think either of these two is intellectually qualified to go to Stanford U ???
Can we see their SAT scores ???
Thought not.

Her new step-dad was so GREEDY that he tried to scam the Nigerians !!!
When that failed (many times), then he scammed his own friends and family and clients out of $10,000,000!!!

Prosecutors later would call Mezvinsky a one-man "crime wave" and said they uncovered elements of fraud in nearly every business deal of his dating to 1980. "We didn't even bother to look back farther," said Assistant U.S. Attorney Robert Zauzmer
He is 66 and serving the beginning of an 80-month sentence in federal prison for numerous charges, including bank, wire and mail fraud. He took people's money - more than $10 million - in elaborate lies and schemes.

Chelsea's New Family:
If reports are true that Chelsea Clinton and her boyfriend Marc Mezvinsky are considering marriage, the father of the groom won't be able to attend the wedding until he is released from prison in November 2008.
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2558600/posts
Ed Mezvinsky, a former Democratic Congressman from Iowa, is serving a seven-year sentence for fraud after getting caught up in a series of Nigerian e-mail scams.
Initially, Mezvinsky became the victim of "just about every different kind of African-based scam we've ever seen," federal prosecutor Bob Zauzmer told 20/20 for a report to be broadcast this evening.
• But then, says Zauzmer, Mezvinsky began to steal from clients and even his own mother-in-law to raise the money to try yet another scheme.
• "He was always looking for the home run. He was always trying to find the business deal that would make him as wealthy as all the people in his social circle," said Zauzmer.
After leaving Congress, Mezvinsky moved to Philadelphia's Main Line suburbs with his wife Marjorie Margolies, a former television reporter, who won a seat in Congress herself as a Democratic congresswomen from Pennsylvania.
"They were seen as people of means; they were a legitimate power couple," said Gar Joseph, a political columnist for the Philadelphia Daily News.
The Mezvinkskys were also close to Bill and Hillary Clinton and were frequent guests at White House state dinners.
Prosecutors say Mezvinsky used his connections to the Clintons and his son's social relationship with Chelsea to persuade people to give him money to participate in the scams.
Mezvinsky traveled to Nigeria numerous times and ultimately lost more than $3 million as a victim of the scammers.
Prosecutors say Mezvinsky fell particularly hard for what is known as the "black money" scam. Victims are told millions of dollars have been coated with black ink so the money could be smuggled out of Nigeria.

The scammers then offer to sell a special, expensive chemical to remove the black ink so the currency can be used.
Prosecutors say Mezvinsky fell for at least three separate "black money" schemes that he thought would bring him millions.
Mezvinsky declined requests sent to him in prison to speak with ABC.

But consider that the unsaid details are extremely interesting:
Both mom and dad were Congressmen, from different states!!!
Prosecutors say EVERY deal step-dad ever did since 1980 had fraud within it.
$10,000,000 stolen !!!
So, who is paying for this wedding and what money is being used?
Step-dad’s fine was “only” $3,000,000” so clear net profit is $7,000,000.
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
I wonder, I wonder,
Bill, Hillary, step-dad, bernie madoff, I guess this is how people have $5,000,000 weddings in modern America.
All bow down to our new rulers!
Or perhaps the money came from the “hedge fund” where C works and for which she went to bat in Congress for (and where she got laughed at for trying it).
Has she fallen down drunk lately?
Ordered any more $25,000 bottles of wine lately???
BTW
Do you KNOW anyone who drinks $25,000 bottles of wine or has $5,000,000 weddings?
I don’t.
Good point, but a sitting president wasn’t there. And I think Bill has broken bread with this guy before...
Apples don’t fall far from the tree.
You think Elitists don’t intermarry?
As two conditions of the wedding. as sometimes happens between parents of ‘the intended party’, I propose these might have been negotiated:
1. Always, in the presence of Big Bill, simply call the groom “Ed”, the similar phonetics might be, in 0bamaspeak, “troubling”;
2. If not “in the consumation of the rite”, for once and always, have a (ahem) “banner hanging by the marital grove to disguise the dear bride’s changing heightened countenance”.
“He comes from a crooked family”
And she doesn’t?
“A federal judge can’t issue an order demanding the President eat with someone.”
You’re only referring to Dem prez’s, right? After all, federal judges are omnipotent, just ask any one of them, especially Bolton.
Of course not! We're just going to give him the full rectal exam that the media has chosen to deal out to Sarah Palin............That's fair isn't it?
And for what it's worth, I have a gut feeling that the kid hasn't fallen too far from the family tree.......
But she did and the dad referred her to his son................
“Prosecutors say Mezvinsky used his connections to the Clintons and his son’s social relationship with Chelsea to persuade people to give him money to participate in the scams.”
You can bet that would have made news if it was a Republican!
>You think Elitists don’t intermarry?<
If I may be so bold as to reword your statement — it would read more correctly
if it said “You think crime families don’t intermarry?”
thank you...
Maybe this is part of their attraction to each other. Both have lousy families, it could be something to start their friendship and intimacy.
“You know what MY dad did????”
“Yeah, well how about THIS from mine...???”
I'm sorry. I think we're crossing wires here. I was responding to someone about why Obama didn't get invited. Clearly, the Secret Service would be placed in a VERY awkward position, considering it would be in direct opposition to normal protocol to allow a sitting president to be in such close proximity to a convicted felon who is still on probation.
I'm sure they didn't have a problem with a former president being there.
I apologize.
So you slander the young man due to your feeeellliinnngggsss.
How liberal of you.
Think nothing of it. I had a sneaky suspicion we were talking about two different things.
But she did and the dad referred her to his son................
...LOL
Chelsea is the daughter of traitors and thieves. It is interesting that her new hubby is the son of a thief.
Chelsea worked at McKinsey and Company, a very respected consulting firm in the world. I think that her experience there got her into the hedge fund business. If she held an associate position there, she may have interacted with clients that liked her which may have gotten her a job at the hedge fund.
I don’t know if McKinsey and Company would compromise their rigorous selection process for her. I mean you can’t really bullshit the cases they give or the analytical exams they give, no matter where you are from.
That would be a really bad rep for them and the individuals that attempted to get in to this highly selective firm.
Slander??????? How so?
