Drudge has this listed as:

NYT PAGE ONE THURSDAY: TOP CLINTON DONOR: FROM NOVICE TO A FORTUNE IN URANIUM...

The New York Times is not burying this story and that is especially significant this close to Super Tuesday.

From my post above, and what advertising guy posted
in my “Numero Uno” .... backlash from the Kennedys:

~~~~~

“well here is what I was told.........remember when Patrick Kennedy was elbow to elbow with the Bloviator Hugo Chavez asking for oil for NE poor. Seems there was a plan for the Kennedy’s to get cash windfalls puttin’ it in place.

Well , while no deal was done, it was gonna and Bill Clinton OR an associate ( source ain’t yet sure) told TED this would be leaked to the news conspires if TED did not support Hillary and “bring the posse”.

That dog won’t hunt, they hate each other TO DEATH.

Then Owanna got roots with his campaign and winning results and well...... new strategy......do not do the oil for poor and then Bill got stupid and played the race card poorly.

The real internals( he said) now say Hillary is hanging on with a thread and one more screw up and she falls to an avalanche.

Well the willing media leak receivers did get the story
but it ain’t got hard meat and only exposes the democrats
but Bill keeps lieing about Owanna and those who media/drive the news are sick of the race card and being seen as carrying Bill’s lies like Kiki ( not yet sure who she is)

He said powerful newsies were in conference calls mad and
decided the Clintons can get SCREWED.........

Carolyn was sent first as the soft face of the Camelots.....oops , Kennedys.......

Lastly, he said there is an underto(n)e of heavy support in the party now for Owanna”

Bill Clinton, like his wife, is absolutely shameless — or, as the dictionary puts it, insensible to disgrace. Nothing is too low. Nothing. They will stoop to anything.

Having already had eight years of them in the WH — and seven more with Hillary in the Senate and Bubba gallivanting around the world — you’d think the country would be sick of them. Well, many are. But a goodly number of voters want them back in power. It boggles the mind.

Thanks Anti-Bubba182.

This story has been in the works a long time. The New York Times had to be working on this for longer than a week yet the New York Times Editorial Board endorsed Hillary just five days ago, on January 25, 2008.

The New York Times Editorial Board knew about this story and the havoc it could create upon Hillary's campaign, yet they still went ahead and endorsed her.

Something's up.

"...By choosing Mrs. Clinton, we are not denying Mr. Obama’s appeal or his gifts. The idea of the first African-American nominee of a major party also is exhilarating, and so is the prospect of the first woman nominee..."

Primary Choices: Hillary Clinton Published: January 25, 2008

I'd love to think this matters...but isn't Mr. Hsu in jail? No one seems to care about Clinton corruption. Never have. Dems have a different standard.

Teddy kills a woman and gets reelected. His endorsement is coveted.

The Clintons' crimes are too numerous to list. I just don't think people care anymore.

A lot of people on the left are taking the risk to oppose Hillary. They have to know payback will come if she wins. So this kind of story fron the NYTimes at this time is surprising.

It sure is weird for them,
but it does seem to line up
with that info I posted above,
as far as the media powerhouses
allegedly now going against her.

Does the nose candy come in first, second, third or fourth?

Unbelievable story, but then it’s the Klintoons.

True. Good points.

I wonder if the NY Times, under the assumption that she'll win the nomination anyway, then decided to run this story now in hopes that time will dilute its impact in November.

No way the dilution angle would be applied this close to Super Tuesday. It would be after she had the nomination in the bag.

I don't believe that Hillary has the nomination sealed yet, but I think the New York Times believes she does.

“...Mr. Clinton’s public declaration undercut both American foreign policy and sharp criticism of Kazakhstan’s poor human rights record by, among others, Mr. Clinton’s wife, Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton of New York.”

But I thought she could control him.

True, but really... (all together now)

"It depends on what the meaning of the word 'is control' is"

Publication of this story—which is bad but not ruinous—won’t be so “surprising” if they soon mortally wound McCain with the “lobbyist scandal” story. McCain has consistently beat Clinton in Rasmussen’s national poll.
