Clintons Demand $1 Million to Allow Donor’s Kids at Benefit Dinner
Washingtion Free Beacon ^ | July 18 2014 | Washington Free Beacon Staff

Posted on 07/18/2014 10:10:15 AM PDT by PoloSec

A Chinese businessman paid $500,000 to have dinner with Bill and Hillary Clinton. But when he asked if his kids could join, the former first couple demanded another half-million, the New York Post reports.

One witness said Holzman regaled guests with a tale that “lunch for two with Bill and Hillary went for $500,000 to benefit the Clinton Foundation.” And the winning bid came from “a Chinese business mogul who then asked if he could bring his two children along to the meeting.”

But, our spy said, the high bidder was then told by the Clinton camp he could only bring his kids for a cool $1 million.

“The couple opted to leave the children at home,” the source cracked.

The Left continuously accuses the Right of greed.

Headline is misleading. They demanded only another HALF million for the kids. This is just another example of the media horribly mistreating those fine Clintons.

No matter how much it hurts them, no matter how much it dominates the news and undermines Hillary launching her campaign, no matter how rich they currently are and don’t need the money, the Clintons simply cannot stop their money-grubbing. Its like the scorpion and the frog fable — they do it because its in their nature.

Let this be a lesson to all donors. You schmooze, you lose.

Considering her poverty, I can understand Hillary wanting enough money to feed her family. She needs that extra $500k.

Amazing

These are not campaign funds. She isn’t going to run is she? She is just raking in the big bucks.

The “Clinton Foundation” has got to be one of the biggest shakedown/money laundering operations in the history of the world. But because they use 1% of proceeds to do “life changing work” it’s all legit.

What a great country we live in...
