Facts about Chelsea's new husband's father not being covered by the MSM......

[Red in Blue PA]

He comes from a crooked family. His father stole at least $10 Million from investors and still owes at least $9.4 Million.

I guess birds of a feather......

In 2001, he was convicted of several dozen charges of fraud. He was released from federal prison in 2008. However, he remains on federal probation and still owes almost $9.4 million in restitution to his victims.[1]

FGS this is ridiculous.

Are we going to judge him by his parents?

Are we going to blame parents for their children’s messy lives?

"In 2001, he was convicted of several dozen charges of fraud. He was released from federal prison in 2008. However, he remains on federal probation and still owes almost $9.4 million in restitution to his victims"

Remains on federal probation? Now we know why both Biden and Obama really weren't invited. People on federal probation don't get to be in the same room with the President and Vice President. It would have been awkward to not have the father of the groom at the wedding.

.........and still owes at least $9.4 Million..........

Maybe Hillary can steal some more silverware so he could hock it.

[Wilderness Conservative]

Yes and yes.

Dollar to donuts if this was a Palin daughter u can be quite sure it would be everywhere, dont kid yourself.

If President Bush's daughters had married someone with this type of family - it'd be front page for months. Strange how once again the press has given one of their own a pass. Not that I'm opposed in this case - the father is not the son - but I would like them to apply the same standard to Republicans. Or bash both.

The MSM double standard is making them look silly - and us look truthful.

Hmmm, maybe they should just keep it up?

[Red in Blue PA]

I am not judging him at all.....merely putting out information which one would not hear through the MSM.

If it’s true that:

We are what we repeatedly do; excellence then, is not an act, but a habit. -Aristotle

Then the corrolary of this is also true, that we are who we surround ourselves with.

Geez...and this is the family now in bed with the Clinton dynasty? Hard to believe...

If they had so much as a traffic citation, it would be non-stop news for months.

MESSY? Good grief...

And Jan Shakowski’s hubby cramer did time for ripping off a bank in a check kiting scheme oh that would be the bank that gave bo his mortgage, Shore Bank, of the progressive persuasion. Thick as Thieves is really the dem party.

[orlop9]

It sounds like the Clinton’s are finally moving up in the world.

[Dilbert San Diego]

Agreed, we shouldn’t talk too much about the problems of his father.

I thought it was funny how the MSM had a number of stories about Mezvinsky being Jewish, and how this marriage was an interfaith marriage. That made me laugh, because, they are both from good liberal Democrat families. They are not devout in their religious faith to start with.

It would have been a real interfaith marriage if good Democrat Chelsea married a Republican.

As it is, it’s a merger of two political families who are on the same team.

[Lauren BaRecall]

This is stupid. Chelsea and her husband are private citizens.

[Carley]

It is not news that the father has been in prison. For most of that time Chelsea was not to be seen in the son’s company.

Pathetic isn’t it, given the Clinton’s own ugly corrupt history.

Do we have to join in on this bashing of the son for the father’s sins.

[Red in Blue PA]

Why didn't a single interviewer press as to why obama was not going?

[eleni121]

Holding family members responsible is not ridiculous at all. That includes parents for their kids and adult kids for their parents.

Scrutinizing the groom's father's criminal background is neither ridiculous nor judgmental esp. when political hacks like the clintoons are involved.

[Red in Blue PA]

Do we have to join in on this bashing of the son for the father’s sins.

Huh? Who is bashing the son?

If Chelsea had married Bernie Madoff's son, I am sure you would agree that would be news. The only difference here is a matter of dollars.

[tflabo]

.........and still owes at least $9.4 Million..........

Small potatoes compared to Bernie who 'Madeoff' with the billion$!
