I remember Abramhoff... Abramhoff... Abramhoff

Where’s ABC News on this one?

ABC is just another wing of the Democrat Party

I'm not convinced the FBI and DOJ are finished with their investigation,apparently Hsu is still being protected at a hospital in Grand Junction,Co.

I pray you are right...Brian of Fox & Friends thinks so, too, and said again today--this story is not going to die.

Praying for sure.

Of all the tests that Hsu has gone through in the last few days I hope the polygraph revealed the most damaging information.

I was having lunch in downtown San Francisco this p.m., and two men behind me were discussion Shrillery. Both said they would vote for an independent or even Republican candidate before they would vote for her. In fact, one of them said, “I mean, she’s as fascist and power-hungry as you can get, dude - have you ever listened to her?”

And this is in the heart of her target market. I haven’t seen ANY Hillary bumper stickers - lot of Obama and Giuliani, but NO Hillary.

I saw a picture posted (not sure if it is photoshopped) of Hillary and Hsu. Now, based on Hillarys appearance (hair etc) this would be a fairly recent picture if it is not fake. Couldn’t it be assumed that if she is taking pictures with him while he is a fugitive, that she had some knowledge that he was wanted by the authorities? Besides the obvious aid and abetting of the MSM, how can she deny this?

Rush Limbagh calls this a huge scandal. But in dollar amounts, it is dwarfed by the the amount of money that Peter Paul has asked that she return to him, yet she has ignored his request for years.

"They get to keep the money while Mr. Hsu heads off into the legal system."

For a while, at least.

I am guessing 'ol Mr. Hsu will have some "collection agents" drop by for a visit.

By returning the money, Clinton also puts pressure on presidential rivals and other politicians...

Translation from AP-speak to English: Everyone else does it, so there's nothing that terrible about taking money from sleazy characters. In fact she is on the cutting edge of campaign ethics.

We need to demand to see the backs of every check she “returns” after it’s been cashed......

Just who does the campaign return the money to?..............

To the contributors.

There is good reason to believe that many were pressured to contribute to Hillary's campaign, in order to keep participating in an "investment" fund that Hsu was running. Of course, there's also good reason to believe that this "investment" fund was really a Ponzi scheme, so these people are in a bad way.

There's also reason to believe that other "contributors" (such as the Paws) were really conduits for money from other sources. The IRS will be interested in tracking that money. :-)

This is going to continue to get more and more interesting.

In returning $850,000 to donors associated with a disgraced fundraiser, Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton sets a significant new standard for how campaigns should respond in the face of potential scandal.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

[...The campaign announced it would now conduct background checks on its fund raisers..]

John Gotti used to ‘background checks’ on his ‘fund raisers’ too if the money was a little ‘funny’, they ended up in black Glad bags.

Yeah, the Clintons have set all kinds of precedents. These two sleazy characters are nauseating.

In returning funds, “Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton sets a significant new standard for how campaigns should respond”

....We’re not worthy to have her as President...

LOL

Wow. THIS is jOuRNalisM?
Sounds like HRC Campaign boilerplate

Who did she return this money to? Surely not Hsu. . .or any of the aliases used; nor could it be sent to the addresses as per the library for instance. So where does it go?

(Imagine how surprised Hillary was to discover this fraud!!!)

What is amazing is how long they have been routinely engaged in such fraud; and still the media manages to fein their surprise as they cover Hillary's 'surprise'. . .

Let's see; does the MSM remember the disclosures re the Clinton fundraising in the White House; no. . .not selling the Lincoln bedroom; but rather the cash-in-a-brown-bag dinners. . .with a guest list list that read like a Chinese phone book? Does MSM remember Charlie Trie from the Clinton 'Arkansas days? Hillary, I am sure does not remember.

Whatever. . ..enough illegal Asian activity in the Clintdon quarters to fill more than a few years and books; and most importantly, the Clinton pockets.

Reap - sow; usually applies to individual action. But, with due credit. . .Hillary and Bill have figured out how to 'reap'; why the rest of America 'sows' for them.

It's a beautiful thing. . .
