This oughta work. I'm sure that this conference will change the world dramatically. Overnight poverty will end, people will start being nice.

Muslims will stop terrorizing and blowing themselves and others up. The air and water will be cleaner overnight.

Everyone will get a free Teddy Bear.

That great "Free" Cuban healthcare will be available everywhere (whether you want or like it or not.)

How much of this money will go into the Hildabeast's pocket?

Will the conference condemn Islamofascist insanity and terrorism? Will it issue a white paper on how socialism is responsible for most of the world's ills?

I'm waiting.

RE: Bill Clinton's premise is simple. If commitments aren't honoured, the participant is not invited back.

Mr. Clinton has his own problem with the simple premise of commitment.

Kofi Anan and his fellow U.N. thieves began their various illegal operations under Clinton. In fact nearly every negative we face now originated with Clinton's total lack of morality that inspired the world to be just like him, while simply ignoring escalated threats like terrorism. Of course Clinton and Anan idolize each other.

Ole Madam Arrafart is living pretty well on the millions Arraweasel stole from the Palestinians. Is she she still living and shopping in Paris?

Got any other pictures of Bubba kissing all kinds of things?

I wonder how many women Willard has boinked? It would be interesting to see a list of names and photos. I wonder how the MSM slimes would cover that?

That does seem extraordinarily high. However much he raised, I'll bet there are no strings, no donor list, no taxes, no accountability. The site says his foundation is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization.

I'm afraid we'll be seeing more of this logo in the days to come.

"He raised $1,250 million? I don't believe it."

How much is going into his Swiss bank account? Maybe Marc Rich can tell us!

Reading that rogues' gallery of names reminds me of one definition of "politics":
'Voluntarily associating with people you ordinarily would not have in your home.'

Oh yeah---L-e-g-a-c-y.

I wonder how much of the money collected was from people who thought they were giving to Katrina relief?

You know, Bill has been campaigning to be the next Secretary General of the UN. Consider what might happen if he managed to be placed in that post, and Hillary were to become President. I mean really consider the consequences. My stomach knots up.

The Clinton Global Initiative wrapped up on Saturday bringing in over $1.25 billion in pledges.

OK. Let's divide this up. One for Relief. One for Hillary. Five for me. One for Relief. One for Hillary. Five for me. One for Relief. One for Hillary. Five for me. One for relief ...

And why is that?

RINO Rep. Jim Kolbe (AZ) was on the Advisory Board and was a presenter at the Clinton Globalist Initiative conference last week. This is the same RINO that is 100% pro-abortion (including partial birth abortion), was the primary House proponent of NAFTA, threatened to break arms in order pass CAFTA, is one of the primary advocates of amnesty for criminal invaders, voted against protecting the Pledge of Allegiance and Ten Commandments, voted against the fetal homicide bill, voted to insert special "civil" fights for gays and transgenders in employment and "hate crimes" laws, who has for the last 7 years inserted language in "must pass" appropriations bills to shut down all permanent Border Patrol checkpoints in Arizona (a recent GAO audit reported that this shut down reduced effectiveness in the Tucson Sector by 77%) among other heinous votes, positions, and statements.

Kolbe has got to go.

You can help remove Kolbe from office by going to www.votegraf.com and supporting conservative, pro-life Republican Randy Graf in his effort unseat him.

It would be good to see a list of the pledges. Who and how much.

If there were 1000 people in attendance, each would have to pledge over $1 million. There is no way this is a real number (even if it is only pledges). I bet this turns out to be a joke, and that 1.24 billion was a pledge from Al Coholic.
