Chelsea Clinton’s wealth can’t buy her class
NY Post ^ | 6-29-14 | Andrea Peyser

Posted on 06/30/2014 3:21:57 AM PDT by afraidfortherepublic

Chelsea Clinton, the former and potential future first daughter, has stiff competition for the title of Most Tactless Human. Greedy reality-TV creature Kim Kardashian is a contender. Chelsea’s mom, the once “dead broke” Hillary Rodham Clinton, might rank even higher on the scale of bad taste.

Chelsea, 34, has jabbered like an overeducated trailer-park habitué about her family’s No. 1 obsession — money.

The millionairess, pregnant with her and millionaire hedge-funder hubby Marc Mezvinsky’s first child, told Britain’s Telegraph newspaper this month that she’s made a strenuous effort to care about cash. But she just couldn’t bother with the green stuff.

“I’ve tried really hard to care about things that were very different from my parents. I was curious if I could care about [money] on some fundamental level, and I couldn’t,” Chelsea said. That wasn’t the most infuriating part.

“I will just always work harder [than anybody else] and hopefully perform better,” she said. Didn’t anyone teach Chelsea that it’s bad manners to show off?

Amen.

The recent story that a Muslim terrorist was working at the Clinton Foundation AND conducting terrorist activities at the same time, explains why the Clintons just remade themselves into the hallowed "Clinton Family Foundation."


The Clintons doing their "Holy Family" act.

NOTE The Clintons' shady foundation financing is unveiled in a recent NYT expose of Clinton corruption, greed, entitlement, nepotism, cronyism.

Let's remind everyone that Chelsea's father-in-law is a convicted felon.

And a father who is a convicted felon (Webb Hubbel)

And a step father who is an impeached president, sanctioned perjurer and disbarred attorney (Bill Clinton)

Here, she looks like she has to go to the bathroom.

She probably does: she's pregnant.

Chelsea's father-in-law, Edward "Ed" Mezvinsky is an ex-Democrat congressman.....and a convicted felon.

Edward, a lawyer, was married when he met Chelsea's MIL, Marjorie----they soon got married---but divorced after Edward got conned into several notorious Nigerian-based email financial frauds guaranteed to make you rich.

In his haste to get rich quick, to raise money to get in on these "heaven- sent" investment schemes, Edward defrauded many of his friends and business contacts.....including Marjorie's mother.

Alas, when the Nigerians got their hands on Edwards' money, they did a 23 skidoo. Having failed to come up w/ a ROI, Edward got nabbed by the long arm of the law. Mezvinsky pleaded guilty to 31 of 69 felony counts.. He did hard time----spent 7+ years in a federal prison w/ no chance of parole, and still owes millions in restitution.

Democrat Congressman 2014 candidate Marjory Margolies is also no stranger to the dollar disease. Because of her husband's felony convictions, she filed for bankruptcy. But the court would NOT discharge her of her debts, finding that she could NOT explain where some $1 million in assets had vanished, in the previous 4 year span...during Mezvitsky's crime spree.

In their heyday, Ed Mezvinsky and then-wife Marjorie, herself a former Democratic congresswoman from Pennsylvania (an ex-TV reporter---and recent election loser), were part of the political and social elite in Philadelphia.

The Mezvinskys were close to Bill and Hillary Clinton and were frequent guests at the White House. Prosecutors say Mezvinsky exploited his ties to the Clintons, including his son's relationship with Chelsea, to woo investors to contribute more money to the Nigerian schemes.

In an interview with Des Moines Register from prison in 2003, Mezvinsky said he found the notoriously fraudulent "Nigerian Black Ink" scam convincing. "The Nigerian man came out with a chemical, threw it on the money, and it all turned to $100 bills. He gave me 10 to have them tested back home. And they were real," Mezvinsky told a reporter.

Like her father, she can’t answer a straight question with a straight answer.

The mark of a true idiot or liar. Possibly/probably both.

I guess they think if they spew a lot of BS verbage, there MAY be an answer in there for SOMEONE.

Good thing we don’t have other Democrats involved in paper scams and African schemes.

Yeah, watta relief.......LOL.

LEARNING TOUR? M/M O pictured w/ Ivory Coast official 2009.

Malibu home of Ivory Coast dictator's son.

The oil-rich Ivory Coast has one of the worst human rights records in Africa whose rulers are accused of funneling millions of public monies into their own pockets. But now it looks like the son of the dictator----Teodoro---whose world—comprised yachts, Bugattis, and Michael Jackson memorabilia—could come crashing down, according to Foreign Policy (via Curbed).

Foreign Policy's Ken Silverstein reported that after a four-year investigation into alleged extortion and laundering of $100 million in the US and "theft of public funds, or other corrupt conduct" back at home, the Justice Department has filed notice of a lawsuit involving the possible seizure of Tedoro's California mansion, and other assets.

And French investigators just seized millions of dollars' worth of his sports cars, while the Spanish government is investigating the entire Obiang clan. Teodoro reportedly hasn't spent much time stateside recently, in part thanks to various legal actions against him.

Just a peek inside the insane world of Teodoro---he first came to the U.S. to attend Pepperdine University in Malibu. While tuition cost just $3,400, he managed to blow through $50,000 in the first five months before dropping out. Source: Business insier--LA Weekly.

Teodoro is listed as the owner of this $35 million mansion on the Malibu coast, which he paid for in cash. It was the most expensive home sold in California in 2006, and has a tennis court, swimming pool and 4-hole golf course.

Teodoro's on the government payroll as "minister of agriculture and forestry," and supposedly makes just $5,000 per month. But his Malibu home contains $60,000 worth of rugs, a $58,000 home theater and a $1,734 pair of wine glasses.

Chelsea Clinton has “class”? Excuse me — I think not. She married the son (Marc) of former Congressman Ed Mezvinsky (D-IA)(ex-felon). In 2001, daddy plead guilty to 31 of 69 felony charges of bank, mail, and wire fraud. He got 8 years in federal prison, 3 years’ probation, and was to pay $10 million in restitution. His probation was completed in 2011, but he still owes $9.4 million to his victims.

The daughter of Bill and Hillary Clinton, she's descended from some very famous thieves and grifters that have bilked gullible liberals out of millions. The apple does not fall far from the tree in either family.
