WASHINGTON (AP) --  Reversing course, Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton said Friday she would donate thousands of dollars she received from indicted ImClone founder Sam Waksal to charity.

Clinton and a soft money account set up on her behalf by Democrats received $33,000 from Waksal, campaign finance records show.

The Clinton's & DNC have never documented many of their prior claims to return or donate tainted funds, have they?

Exactly... someone needs to follow up on this.

Sen. Clinton to donate indicted ImClone chief's donations

The only time the dems give to charity!

[Howlin]

The remaining $26,000 was donated to the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee's New York Senate 2000, a soft money account set up on Clinton's behalf.

Huh? She is going to "donate" the money in question to a "charity," which would be a fund set up for HER???

Am I missing something here? Did I misunderstand.

[Howlin]

I believe we're STILL waiting for Fat Huey to return the money HE got, aren't we?

[Oldeconomybuyer]

The way I read that sentence is the $26,000 was donated by ImClone to the generic 2000 state senate democrat campaign - - basically, to Hillary.

[hang 'em]

Caught with "Old Crusty" down around her ankles, huh?

</repulsive imagry alert>

[Whispering Smith]

Your right. The money will go to "The Clinton Defense" fund. Of course, it is not a bona fide charity but there is no controlling legal authority concerning that fund yet. So if HiLIARy says it is a charity, it is until the trial and all appeals have been exhausted. And then she'll pull a Dasshole and have a rider to some Bill declare it a charity.

[aShepard]

to a charity that has yet to be determined,

Probably the "In memory of Buddy fund"

This money grubbing whore will never give up one cent of her hard extorted funds.

[Ann Archy]

NEVER forget....the Clintons are the Clintons favorite CHARITY!! The CHI_COM money was NEVER sent back like they said it was....her brother never returned most of the money that he said he did...LIARS, CHEATS...THIEVES!

I LOVE the Clintonoids being caught in unlawful and scandalous things. Schadenfreude.

[Oldeconomybuyer]

[DrDavid]

Clinton will donate the $7,000 received by her Senate campaign and her political action committee to a charity that has yet to be determined... The Clinton Defense Fund...

[Digger]

You are sooo right. We never heard any more on fat Huey. Supposedly there was a large gift tax to be paid. You know it has NEVER been paid. Now we have a justice department & an IRS department BUT THE KLINTOONS GET A FREE PASS.( let's just include Jessie HighJackson in with them) . Soooo Again & again & again nothing happens to the Klintoons. Ergo George Bush is just as big of a problem as Bubba. The "Two-Party Cartel" again giving the sheeple the finger & you all go & vote them back in.

[just me]

YUCK

[vin-one]

Gee I am so surprised.
That hilly got caught doing something unethical.
Thank God she got caught tring to socialize medicince

Throw the biatch in jail!!!!!!!!!!

[AdamsPapers]

Ms Smith. Please overnight this check to the Clinton Presidential Library Fund in Little Rock. Thanks

[TLBSHOW]

Come on Hillary give it all back to those poor people, You slimebag witch!

[Drango]

This money is dirty, dirty, dirty...so I'm giving it to these guys = Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee's New York Senate 2000

[Argus]

The Democratic Party is a front for laundering the money of super-rich crooks who thereby buy themselves immunity from charges that they are "greedy", "mean-spirited" and "racist".

[ravingnutter]

I don't know about that anymore...

FBI Raids Hillary's Warehouse in Whitewater Deja Vu - 06/24/02

An excerpt:

The FBI raid may also be a sign that the reported no prosecution deal for the Clintons, demanded by Democrat leaders as the price for President Bush getting some of his legislative agenda implemented, is beginning to unravel - since Democrats seem to have kept little if any of their part of the bargain.

They may just be busy sifting through the papers. The great thing about this one is it is a case of the Dems eating their own, no VRWC involved. Peter Paul is ready to roll over on Hillary for immunity.

[Paul Atreides]

Let me guess; she will donate it all to the Clinton Defense Fund or the Clinton Library.

[giotto]

Reversing course... On Thursday, Dunn told the New York Post that Clinton "has no plans to return the money at this time."... During her 2000 Senate bid, Waksal pumped $26,000 into the soft money account the DSCC set up for Clinton. He also chipped in the maximum allowable $2,000 to her election campaign account...

Do I sense a slight weakening in the pro-Hillary! media camp? AP is usually hard-line liberal and very soft on the Clintons. Maybe it's just wishful thinking.

[Whispering Smith]

Let me tell you how to "return" funds. You write a check to the same bogus name that gave you the money. You put the check in an envelope addressed to the same bogus address the bogus name gave you. You put the envelope in the outgoing mail basket. The envelope goes to the Post Office. After many days, the Post Office returns the envelope because you did not put enough postage on it. You run the envelope through your issue resolution group. They eventually generate a new envelope with enough postage on it. They may even put the check into this envelope. The envelope goes back to the Post Office. The Post Office tries to deliver this envelope. 90% end up in the Dead Letter Office. 5% are delivered but they are empty. 5% are delivered with the check in them. The bogus name tries to cash the check. Sorry, the "cash within thirty days" caution on the check has been exceeded. So, in the next bank account reconcilliation, the returner picks the cash back up from overdue checks not cashed. I'll gaurantee that is what happens.

[Paul Atreides]

"How dare you question me? Die, fool!"

[<1/1,000,000th%]

"She recommends that they do the same," Dunn said.

Righhhtt....

[chnsmok]

Seems like they were perfectly legal donations done before he became a crook. I just wonder if she sold any stock. Ah, but it is in a blind trust...wink! wink!. She is good friends with that dastardly Martha!

[c-five]

Let me guess; she will donate it all to the Clinton Defense Fund or the Clinton Library.

My guess, a numbered account at Credit-Suisse. I'm (just) guessing that Marc Rich has influence there.

[mcenedo]

A couple of hours ago, she wasn't giving the money back, now she is.

Big deal, $30k or so. She reported 10's of millions during the last election.

$30k is chump change, probably about Crusty and crews deodorant bill for a month.
