President Clinton's charitable foundation went nearly $38.5 million into debt last year to cover the costs of building and endowing the former president's new library in Arkansas, according to a recent financial report.

The borrowing took place despite $57.7 million in donations Mr. Clinton secured in 2004, an increase of 30% from the prior year, the new figures show.

"...[c]linton's charitable foundation went nearly $38.5 million into debt last year to cover the costs of building and endowing the [impeached POS's] new library in Arkansas"

This wouldn't be a way of laundering $38.5M, would it? Oh, no.

Thanks to Freeper march violet for finding this.

Is admission free? I would assume so, but then I start thinking that is a really poor assumption...

Clinton Library.

No, It all went into those Velveteen Elvis paintin's, Hummel Figurines, and cinder block shelves for his collection of Jug's magazine.

It's amazing how many fools throw money at Clinton, just like the girls threw their panties at Elvis.

Nothing like financing your sweetie's next campaign,
while running a shell game!

"The foundation's new CEO is Bruce Lindsey, an attorney and former White House aide who is a lifelong confidant of Mr. Clinton."

Going bankrupt would match the Clintons moral standard.

When the library opened last year, a computer display in the exhibit halls included information on some, but not all, donors. The Saudi Royal Family and the governments of Dubai, Kuwait, and Qatar all gave $1 million or more. Other major donors included a film director, Steven Spielberg, and a New York labor group, Local 1199 of the Service Employees International Union.

After The New York Sun published a report on the donor list, the computer display was shut off. It has not been restored.

Interesting.....

Northing's free with these scumbags.Just ask Webb Hubbell and Denise Rich.

[F.J. Mitchell]

Only difference is that Clinton donors always get what the Elvis fans only hoped to get.

Time for them to hit up Whitewater again.

Anybody donating their hard-earned money to the Clinton's "charity" is asking for this....

The only charity that Bill and Hillary understand is how to help themselves.

> Interesting.....

What needs to be researched is the money trail. First, if the computer display is gone, are the clinton library's donors on the public record? Second, the wulliam j cluntln Foundation: it's a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization...he's already used it to fund the so-called UN Global Initiative: who is funding the foundation, and where else does the money end up, besides the Little Rock trailer park?

The Clinton Library? You mean that building in AK that looks like a double-wide?

Bruce Lindsay--Wow I wondered what Mr. Fix-it was up to these days. Guess the bimbo brigrades are so well oiled now he can focus on other Clinton shenanigans.

Whenever you see Bruce you know there been really slimy stuff going on.

Ben Veniste is the other warning slime.
