So it begins...........Hillary the victim

She could run nuns down in the street and some people would give her a pass.

[beyond the sea]

agreed to perform for free, but that didn't come cheap

Gotta love that concept!

Sort of like Monica. She performed for free but that didn't come cheap either.

;-)

Sort of like Monica. She performed for free but that didn't come cheap either.

And we all were forced to pay the price for that slut's willingness to get on her knees for a better job.

[Liz]

She'll make political hay with this, for sure.

[Nick Danger]

The long version of Judicial Watch's Senate Ethics Complaint includes some excerpts from Aaron Tonken's book King of Cons.

At one point they thought it would be cool to have Rosa Parks, the civil right figure, come out and wave to the Clintons. She would come, but she wanted money and they had to send a Gulfstream 4 to come pick her up. They offered her a first-class airline ticket. No go; it was Gulfstream 4 or nothing. Tonken quotes Rosen as saying, "She's come a long way from the back of the bus." They turned her down.

Later she called back. "How about Air Force One?" she asked. Well, Billy-Bob wasn't going to swing by to get her, so that was the end of that.

[donozark]

Maybe they could have picked up Rosa in a Greydog?

[Liz]

King of Cons was a dissertation on Hollyweird greed. These people are beneath contempt.

[Popman]

Well, Billy-Bob wasn't going to swing by to get her, so that was the end of that.

I betcha if Rosa Parks was a sweet 20 something year old with big "assets" both physical and financial, Billy-Bob would have found a way to make a side trip

" . . .Cher, who specified the exact model."

I'm surprised that nitwit knows one model from another.

[Rummyfan]

Cher, Melissa Etheridge, Toni Braxton, Diana Ross and Michael Bolton agreed to perform for free, but that didn't come cheap...... Several wanted private jets — including Cher, who specified the exact model.

Incredible!

[bert]

....I'm surprised that nitwit knows one model from another....

I would suspect she doesn't but her status conscious handler knows enough to insure she gets better treatment than the others.

[Smartaleck]

This is how the champions of the environment and little guy behave. OK for thee but not for me.

[sgtbono2002]

I have never read yet where Hillary paid her bill for using government jets while campaigning in New York.. I doubt I ever will.

[beyond the sea]

Yes!!!!! especially all the KIDS in school who think that giving a hummer is just so fine now that Clinton was cool with it!

It all makes me crazy!

[Libloather]

It cost $50,000 to build the stage...

[Liz]

It cost $50,000 to build the stage, $90,000 for invitations, $35,000 for special directors chairs that were given away as gifts, and $50,000 for gift bags.

Hmmmm.......those are outsized figures.

Maybe Rosen was dipping into the party income for himself.....inflating costs, maybe writing checks to sham businesses that were accounts in his name.

Maybe Rosen's scam was deeper than was originally thought----not just an FEC scam at all.

Maybe some of the gala's costs went into Rosen's pockets.

[Grampa Dave]

A little warning to all of us.

Nothing will happen to the Clintons. Rosen may go to jail, and the Clintoons will skate away thanks to the MSM.

[threeleftsmakearight]

I once heard the clintons compared to a hurricane. They come in to your life, turn it upside down, some people even die (if you're lucky you only get sent to prison)and they come out the other side none-the-worse-for-wear.
It really is an amazing phenomenon.

[mouser]

OK as i understand they under reported how much they spent so they could have more money for campaigning. my question if they spent the money for the fund raiser where did the extra money come from for campaigning. Was it a way to launder illegal funds. And if so where they came from may be the more interesting question.
