BACKGROUND
In 2000, Peter F. Paul, in the biggest business mistake he ever made, believed he was dealing with people who would do great things for his public company, the stockholders, and his friend, Spiderman creator Stan Lee. Those people were Bill and Hillary Clinton.
It obviously wasn't about politics; it was strictly a business decision. Peter had been a vigorous anti-Castro advocate as a young international attorney in Miami. He became a Reagan Republican and friend of the conservatives that were still in Hollywood, such as Bob Hope and Jimmy Stewart.
Peter was working long hours trying to build Stan Lee Media into an international force and, unfortunately for him, his family and the company, he didn't pay attention to the criminal activity of those with whom he was about to do business. Despite party affiliation, business people have always thought it was a good idea if a former president could speak for their company around the world, raising huge amounts of money for the company and stockholders. But, we have never had a former president quite like William Jefferson Blythe Clinton or a First Lady like Hillary Diane Rodham Clinton. Nothing like them at all.
After being assured that he had a deal with the President to come aboard his company after he left the White House, Peter spent over $1.6 million on Hillary's campaign.
Two days after the Aug. 12, 200 Hollywood Gala Salute to President William Jefferson Clinton, the sky was about to fall. Lloyd Grove was given a tip that Peter had a criminal record in connection with one of the great anti-communist stings ever conducted - The Cuban Coffee Caper. Fidel Castro was liberated from $8.7 million and his cheating of his Soviet benefactors had been exposed. Peter accepted a plea deal because he did not want to go through a trial that might cause other anti-Castro operations to be compromised. He bit the bullet and did his time. Of course, as was always the case, cocaine was involved as our country was trying to stop the Soviet communist advances in our hemisphere. When the coffee samples were delivered to Peter's garage, one of the bags contained some cocaine. The government was there in 20 minutes to make the bust. Some people might reasonably conclude that he had been set up.
In an emergency phone call on Aug. 14, Ed Rendell told Peter to deny he gave any money. If he kept his mouth shut, the problem would soon just go away. Peter complied. What could he do? Call them liars in the Washington Post? He had just invested over $1.6 million of his own money for a business relationship.

You have recently seen Hillary Diane Rodham Clinton trot out her faithful lapdog, Howard Wolfson, to make statements regarding Norman Hsu, the big Clinton donor who has now fled as they always seem to do. Maybe he is with Algore's nuns, who fled the country after Gore passed around the plate at the Buddhist Temple.
Wolfson is good at, shall we say, being less than candid with the voters. Oh, what the heck, let's tell it like it is. He is Hillary's lying weasel. It should be great fun when Howard is called for his sworn deposition in Paul v Clinton.
Here is Howard Wolfson commenting in the WASHINGTON POST after Peter had just spent over $1.6 million.
THIS JUST IN...
-- by Lloyd Grove, The Washington Post, August 15, 2000
Is Hillary Clinton soft on crime? We certainly hope not, even though convicted felon Peter Paul--who served three years in prison two decades ago after pleading guilty to cocaine possession and trying to swindle $8.7 million out of the Cuban government-- helped organize Saturday's star-glutted $1 million fundraising gala for Clinton's Senate race at businessman Ken Roberts's Brentwood estate. Paul, co-founder of Stan Lee Media, told us in a statement: "As a young international lawyer and active anti-communist, working in a politically charged environment, I got caught up in a vicious interagency rivalry concerning a covert operation against Castro's Cuba." He added that he only produced the gala and hasn't given or raised money for the first lady's New York campaign. "And we will not be accepting any contributions from him," Clinton campaign spokesman Howard Wolfson vowed.
"And we will not be accepting any contributions from him," Clinton campaign spokesman Howard Wolfson vowed.
Two days later, Grove wrote another story.
Hillary Returns Bucks to Ex-Felon
-- by Lloyd Grove, The Washington Post, August 17, 2000
Senate candidate Hillary Rodham Clinton's press secretary misspoke--and convicted felon Peter Paul apparently misremembered--when they told us this week that Paul produced Saturday's star-glutted million-dollar fundraiser but didn't personally give money to Clinton's campaign.
"I stand corrected," Clinton spokesman Howard Wolfson said Wednesday after we located Federal Election Commission records showing that the fifty-something Paul donated $2,000 to Clinton's Senate campaign on June 30. "He had previously given, but not associated with this event, and today we returned the check," Wolfson said.
Two decades ago, Paul served three years in prison and had his lawyer's license suspended after he pleaded guilty to cocaine possession and trying to swindle $8.7 million out of the Cuban government. Wednesday, Paul said he is innocent and described his criminal record as the fruits of falling on his sword for fellow conspirators in a government-sponsored covert operation against Fidel Castro. "I paid my dues and served my time, and I spent the next 20 years resurrecting myself," said Paul, who organized a "welcome home" dinner for Ronald Reagan in 1989 and faxed us, among other testimonials, a letter of commendation from Chief Justice Warren Burger for his work on the 1988 bicentennial celebration of the Constitution.
A sometime show-business talent manager who co-founded Los Angeles-based Stan Lee Media, Paul describes himself as "an Internet guru." Paul said producer Aaron Tonken, who helped organize the fundraiser at businessman Ken Roberts's Brentwood estate, must have sent candidate Clinton the money on Paul's behalf. "Aaron had me write checks for a lot of things, and I didn't pay attention," Paul said. Tonken didn't return our phone calls seeking comment.
Paul was paid "a nominal fee" for his producing services, he said, and Wolfson said Stan Lee donated $100,000 to cover some expenses for the event. As for the rest of the estimated $1 million-plus cost, "it was an in-kind contribution . . . and not a check," Wolfson said.
Paul was paid "a nominal fee".....Stan Lee donated $100,000.....
Video testimony of Stan Lee swearing that he gave no money.
Wolfson's lies have stood uncorrected for seven years. That is simply what he does for a living. Keep this in mind when Hillary trots him out to make a statement for her. See you at your deposition, Howard.

Please ping the list. Thanks.
The Clintons ARE A LIVING LIE. A massive criminal lie. And expect much, much more.
Hmmmmm, in his video deposition, Stan Lee admits to “switching” $100,000 checks. Why hasn’t the WASHINGTON POST and NY TIMES told their readers? Where is the FEC and DOJ?

Keep them coming, Doug. The public needs to know who they are dealing with. I suspect a lot more democrats know who they are dealing with than they are willing to say. They also know they will be subjected to the same rules we are if she is elected. A dictator has to rule everyone; not just a select group.
Castro endorses Hillary! Watch your back, doug.
Bump for truth! Go, Doug, go!
The public may never get this information, only those of us on FR know what’s going on in that crime family, it seems.
..................Of course, as was always the case, cocaine was involved as our country was trying to stop the Soviet communist advances in our hemisphere. When the coffee samples were delivered to Peter’s garage, one of the bags contained some cocaine. ...................
In your zeal to see these scumbags finally answer for something, I hadn’t realized that cocaine was hidden in a coffee shipment.
From what I understand, this is a very common practice, as the sniff dogs are distracted by the coffee, so maybe the cops arriving a few minutes later was not a sting operation orchestrated by the Toons, but normal procedure for coffee not delivered to a roaster or commercial establishment.
Just about all futures coffee traders get out of their potential delivery position before the commodity option is closed.
That being said, I sure hope that the continuing Chinese connection between these scum can finally have the dots connected, along with the number to a WJBC swiss bank account.
I just sent the following letter to our local newspaper...
I have to assume The Modesto Bee editors are all on vacation and y'all left the DNC in charge of selecting content for the pages of The Bee.
The Bee's Aug 30 edition carried no less than three items regarding Idaho's Senator Craig. No where in The Bee is there mention of another Dem scandal involving campaign contributions to our own Senators Boxer and Feinstein as well as Presidential hopeful Hillary Clinton. Has the hint of John Huang all over again.
The Bee's managing editor, Dan Day, in an article dated March 25, 2007, stated that "When I step into The Bee building, I check my personal views at the door. So do my colleagues. We aim to be objective in reporting the news. It's a matter of professional pride."
It's not like this latest Dem scandal isn't news, The Wall Street Journal and The LA Times gave it full coverage and the Bee remains silent. Y'all must have gotten the DNC memo - Publish no articles that would harm Hillary or the DNC.
There is, by the way, another Hillary scandal brewing. On Sept 7th, at the Court of Appeals in Los Angeles, Hillary's attorney, David Kendall, will argue why his client should not be a co-defendant in the Paul vs Clinton civil suit (www.hillcap.org). We probably won't read about that in The Bee either.
Hope y'all enjoyed your vacations.
XXXXX XXXXXXX
Thanks, DD. Get me the phone number and I will try to reach him. Of course, I will cite his quote and try to hold him to it.

Thanks for the idea. I need to perhaps use that as a logo.

Amazing stuff
The Little Green House At The Airport
Imagine JFK getting Fidel Castro’s endorsement -
I think that’s the smallest house I’ve ever seen, lol. Looks like one room wide. You could get it for $25,000.00 here but in California, who knows.
Lol, wonder if Hillary likes Castro’s endorsement?
