President and Mrs. Clinton who have made better than $30 million in book advances since leaving the White House took time this weekend to make a very public pledge of personal funds towards the relief work going on in the Tsunami wrecked region of the Indian Ocean.

The Clintons were appearing at a relief effort in Queens and met with some 30 volunteers gathered. Oh yes, and New York Newsday newspaper reporter just happened to be there to get a statement from the couple.

Later in the weekend when the Clintons were queried by CNN as to how much they would be personally donating to the cause - the Clintons' spokesperson went silent.

Lesson learned? Don't make a big public deal about what a great contribution you're going to make to charity - if you intend it to be private. HillaryWatch believes it makes you look like a couple of cheap publicity chasers...

HW is also sure it makes you look that way to others as well...

Nothing Humble about these two!! Of courde Hillary has claimed to have gotten religion. As another Freeper remonded yesterday, she claimed to be Jewish just a few years ago! She has dropped her Judism and now embraces the Evangelical Christian reeligion. How the lies just drip from her lips like Honey!! The LIES will really be something to hear when she runs for President!!!
