Disgraced fundraiser Norman Hsu in jail

GRAND JUNCTION, Colo. (AP) - Disgraced Democratic fundraiser Norman Hsu (shoo) has been released from a hospital in Grand Junction and is in jail in Mesa County.

Sheriff's officials say Hsu was booked on an outstanding warrant charge from California. An advisement hearing is scheduled for tomorrow (1:30 p.m.).

Hsu has been wanted as a fugitive for missing his sentencing on a 1991 grand theft case to which he had pleaded no contest. He failed to show up for a bail hearing last week in California.

He was placed under arrest last week at St. Mary's Hospital in Grand Junction after being taken off an Amtrak train bound for Chicago.

Unsealed court documents show that an anonymous tipster who told the FBI Hsu was in the emergency room led to his arrest.

Hsu raised hundreds of thousands of dollars for Democratic candidates and groups until his theft conviction came to light.

Many of those candidates -- including Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton -- have announced plans to return or donate Hsu's election contributions to charity.

This poor bastard, alive and talking — is Hillary’s and the DNC’s worse nightmare..

He KNOWS who KNEW and didn’t object to his money...
He also KNOWS exactly how much he and others like him gave — which may not be the same as the campaigns ADMIT receiving...

He may lead all the way back to the Chinese Military or Government -— as their agent to reward the Clintons for past “cooperation”, with hopes for a continuation in Hillary’s administration...

This dude should be turned over to anyone who will water board his crooked ass and get ALL of the truth out of him — before Hillary has him killed or orders him to commit suicide.

"Hsu has said he believed he had resolved his legal issues, but that he would halt his work raising political money."

Smart move for a felon to maybe, just maybe keep a lower profile.

Reason number 6 you might think Hsu had help with his suicide note: The one-page note, signed by Mr. Hsu, "very explicitly said he intended to commit suicide, y'all."

Hsu has said ... that he would halt his work raising political money.

It isn't Norman's fault that he has a "wide stance" when handing over checks.

Has he indicated he had stories to tell. I mean, I know we know he does, but has he indicated it on any level?

Mr. Hsu should feel lucky the police got to him before operatives for the beast could. He may be jailed but he’s still breathing.

If he is smart, he will sing like a canary.

On the other hand, we may find out just how long the tentacles of the beast really are...
