Hillary's brother barred from bank account

Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton's brother Anthony D. Rodham has been barred from accessing his bank account while a bankruptcy trustee demands that he repay more than $100,000 in loans from a carnival company whose founder was pardoned by President Clinton, filings in federal bankruptcy court in Alexandria show.
Mr. Rodham, one of Mrs. Clinton's two brothers, received $107,000 in loans from United Shows of America Inc. after its owners obtained the presidential pardon over the objections of the Justice Department.
United Shows went bankrupt in 2002, and control of its finances was placed in the hands of court-appointed trustee Michael E. Collins, who has sought to garnish Mr. Rodham's wages.
A consent order filed Tuesday in U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Eastern District of Virginia said Mr. Rodham is barred from taking money out of a bank account containing about $142,000, pending a hearing next month.
Last year, Mr. Collins won a default judgment against Mr. Rodham in a complaint filed in bankruptcy court in Nashville, Tenn. The trustee sought repayment of the loans, plus more than $40,000 in interest.
Mr. Rodham "received the benefit of the loans without making any repayment," said a document filed last year in Nashville.
Mr. Rodham, known as Tony, declined to comment yesterday on the United Shows matter. The Vienna, Va., resident questioned the relevance of the case as a news story.
"I just happen to be the brother-in-law of a person who became president," he said. "I'm not a public figure."

This guy should be in prison. Of course, so should his sister and her so called husband.
This is rich. United Shows' owners get a pardon from Bill Clinton, and Hillary's brother gets a loan (can you say bribe) from United Shows. Nothing to see here. And then United Shows goes bankrupt, leaving creditors high and dry.
Of course, this isn't the first time the Clintons have been involved in something like this. The Clintons got sweetheart loans from a certain Savings and Loan in Little Rock, which later went belly up, leaving the taxpayers holding the bag. But the news media never caught on to the fact that the Clintons had milked a Savings and Loan during the so-called "Decade of Greed".
But not one mention of cigars.....................
The Carnival Show, Hillary the 3-headed cow, and Bill the barker
And Monica the sword swallower
Thanks, Yikes, I remember that picture, quite a twosome.
Probably from the same"litter"!!!!
Hmmm? I'll bet that "loan" was never meant to be repayed, but the bankruptcy put a monkey wrench in the plan. But that would impute dishonesty on the part of the Clintons and the Rodhams and I certainly don't want to do that.
bump
HA! I wonder if Monica is doing the carny shows these days! Last I heard she was hustling a purse line on ebay.
Forgot to ping you to post #33

"A carnival company" you say?.......
...and let's not forget TYSON meats.
How come no one has commented on this:
"In August 2001, Mr. Rodham became involved in a brawl at the Rodham family's summer cottage in Pennsylvania with a man who said he caught Mr. Rodham having sex with the man's girlfriend.
Mrs. Clinton's other brother, Hugh E. Rodham Jr., intervened in that fight."
LOL!
