David Rosen, former National Finance Director of Hillary Clinton's 2000 Senate campaign, is under a four-count federal indictment charging that he "knowingly and willfully caused to be made materially false, fictitious, and fraudulent statements" to the Federal Election Commission regarding more than $1 million in campaign contributions. Each of the four felony counts carries a possible penalty of five years in prison and $250,000 in fines.
This is the most massive fraud ever charged against a political campaign by the U.S. Government.
The criminal charges against Rosen stem from the largest fundraiser on behalf of Hillary Clinton's Senate campaign. The August 12, 2000 Hollywood Gala Salute to President Clinton featured performances by Cher, Diana Ross, Toni Braxton, Patti LaBelle, Melissa Etheridge, Sugar Ray and Michael Bolton. The event cost organizer Peter Paul more than $1.2 million to host, and raised $1 million in "hard money" contributions. By falsely reporting those costs as $401,419, the Clinton campaign avoided paying at least $800,000 in hard money -- not including the fair market value of the performances -- during the crucial final weeks before the election. If Paul's contribution had been reported fully as required by law, it could have bankrupted the campaign.
Peter Paul's extensive evidence, which we will organize and present on this site, shows clearly that Hillary Clinton knew of the actions taken by her finance director, and that she orchestrated those actions and others in violation of federal campaign statutes and regulations.
Mr. Paul is being represented in his ongoing civil suit against the Clintons by the U.S. Justice Foundation, which has formed the Hillary Clinton Accountability Project to put the facts of the most massive and least reported campaign finance scandal in history before the American people.
Hillary Clinton with Peter Paul, her most generous campaign contributor
Then you can read the article...
Does a fat dog fart?
Actually, she got their through invokations to Satan.
You know, it depends
on the competition. If
you had to choose here . . .
If you believe HiLIARy won 53% of the vote then you must believe that people who voted for George W Bush (instead of algore) ALSO voted for hillary. Or said the other way arounf, people who voted for hilLIARy also voted for W (not likely)
I dont know what the percentage was, but algore did not get 53%.
BTTT
With WHAT??????
A Wookie?
A Sasquatch?
I'm sorry. Every creature has its limits of torture it can handle. I don't know of any creature that could endure that nightmare.
There are only 2 creatures as reprehensible as the Hildabeast. Hellen Thomas and Janet Reno.
Some People were hit with the ugly stick, Reno and The Beast were hit with the whole tree. And Hellen, she was hit with the whole friggin' forest.
I didn't realize her and Reno went that far back.
And it will be swept under the rug as someone with an axe to grind because they didn't get some favor from the Hildabeast. Nothing to see here. Move along. MSM does not care.
Is the Pope Catholic?
That depends on what the meaning to is, is.
. . ."Rosen's deceit helped Clinton's Senate campaign. . .
Not true. She beat Lazio by 10-11 points. She had 55% of the vote.
1. Take out Hillary for breaking the law
2. Take out the stupid campaign laws out of sympathy for Hillary.
"Did Hillary Clinton win her Senate seat through fraud?"
You needn't attribute to malice that which is easily explained by the stupidity of New York Liberal voters.
She made a soft money deal with Lazio. She had to cheat because Lazio was awash in hard money. It was Lazio's fault that she cheated, and he should step up and take responsibility.
Just imagine the media firestorm were this Tom Delay's
national finance director............
Bias? What bias? < /sarcasm >
<< Did Hillary Clinton win her Senate seat through fraud? >>
No.
She stole it.
Also, we will get the Michael Jackson trial ad nauseum, but never the Hillary Clinton debacle.
Stan Lee was a big contributor too, and there was something going on with his last company.
