THE DRAMATIC INCREASE IN HILLARY CLINTON'S DISCLOSED ASSETS: An Alternative Theory
(Why we must defeat the clintons NOW: part 2)


by Mia T, 9.22.06

 








ormer clinton political guru, Dick Morris, and his wife and partner, Eileen McGann, are positing a theory of clinton enrichment that attempts to explain the dramatic increase--from as little as $352,000 in 2003 to as much as $50,000,000 in 2005--in hillary clinton's disclosed assets. 1

The authors ask and answer what they believe to be the central question, "What caused the jump? It might have been Dubai." 2

TURN OF PHRASE

The Morris-McGann theory of clinton enrichment turns on the phrase, "dramatic increase." My alternative theory of the crime turns instead on "disclosed assets."

What this is about, I believe, isn't the corrupt peddling of access and influence by the clintons. The clintons have been corruptly peddling access and influence as long as they've been in public life. 3

No. What this is about is bait-and-switch money-laundering. What this is about is the clintons being able to spend their stash.... at last.

PIGS AT THE TROUGH

Prison cells are filled with crooks who got caught because they lived high on a-hog-that-had-no-visible-legal-source. The clintons have, for decades, been amassing that hog. First in Arkansas, and then DC, the clintons have been methodically, corruptly and with impunity amassing a fortune, auctioning off America's security, sovereignty and economy to the highest--invariably foreign--bidder.
4

FLASHY FEINT

You may have noticed that these days the clintons never miss an opportunity, however oblique, to segue to their purportedly newly acquired wealth.
5

Pundits--most notably Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity--have attributed this compulsion to flash the cash to the intersection of nouveau riche and clinton déclassé. But perhaps it is something more....

Perhaps it is bait-and-switch money-laundering.

Perhaps it is cover for the clintons' countless nuncupative deals and unnumbered Swiss accounts.

Perhaps it is a way, at long last, for the clintons, inveterate schnorrers that they are, to live in a manner to which they've made themselves accustomed... but this time on their own, albeit misbegotten, dime.

By purging DC of the professional politician and returning to the idea of the citizen-politician, we would break the power-and-corruption cycle. Post-9/11, we no longer have the luxury of time or circumstance to abide that nonsense.--me



Speaking of which, Dick Morris reports today in the New York Post that missus clinton's net worth grew from as little as $352K in 2003 to as much as $50M in 2005.

Morris writes, "What caused the jump? It might have been Dubai."

A lot of Clinton's money probably came from Red China. Remember when Bill was president he traded supercomputer technology to Red China for yuan. After he was caught he gave back "some" of the money.

Saudi Arabia is also another source for Clinton's vast increase in assets.

But remember this, the key to great wealth in America today is to gain high political office. Ever wonder why someone would spend 10 million dollars of their own money to win a political job that pays less than 200 thousand a year?

As for Billary being worth $352K in 2003, I don't believe a word of that and nobody else does, either. It must be nice to have friends at the IRS who whisk your tax forms right through and ask no questions.--Excuse_My_Bellicosity

Whatever happened to that UNREDACTED BARRETT REPORT, anyway?

Clinton's dramatic increase in wealth is easily deduced from the public record. Clinton routinely travels giving $300,000 talks. What could an audience hear that is worth this much money? Nothing. The point of the talks is to remind currently elected officials that there is a pot of gold at the end of their reign so long as they bend to the wishes of the paymasters while in power. The paymasters know if they don't demonstrate this after-power payoff that they won't get their way. Who are the paymasters? Hint, they have money.

Indeed.

By purging DC of the professional politician and returning to the idea of the citizen-politician, we would break the power-and-corruption cycle. Post-9/11, we no longer have the luxury of time or circumstance to abide that nonsense.

We must field citizen-politicians of the highest caliber. As envisioned by the founders, the citizen-politicians would ''lend'' their expertise to government and then return to private life. The culture of access, influence and self-interest--and with it, the tyranny--would literally disappear overnight.

With their obvious excellence and assisted by the new technology, the citizen-politician would easily bypass the stacked system to capture the imagination -- and votes -- of the masses.

The $300K talks, especially if you factor in the break in the action after the bypass surgery, aren't nearly enough.

As for the 'pot of gold' problem in American politics, see post 45.

To take your analysis one step further: American politics is a way for the mediocre to achieve fame and fortune.

"Consider for a minute where the "Clintons" got their money. When Clinton was President, he approved the transfer of classified missile and satellite technologies to the ChiComs. These technologies enabled them to launch rockets (which had been blowing up on the launch pads or shortly after) and to put their satellites and manned capsules into orbit.

What did the "Clintons" receive for this? No one at my level knows.

I bet the Abel Danger folks turned up the evidence.

Great work. Wealth aggregation, cattle future foundation. Credibility gladly sacrificed. Media and political apologists and professional distracters protection racket. Huey Long in awe. Unabashed corruption on a global scale. They took the village.

Thanks for the post. I've been curious as to how two people who entered the Presidency in 1992 without a pot to wiz in or a window to throw it out of (literally) could amass such a fortune after leaving office in just 6 years. Without ever owning a business or any other visible means of acquirering wealth other than by being paid back for political favors. Why hasn't some one brought this up. If it were a Republican, you'd hear the MSM screaming. Other than the Rose Law Firm, these people have never worked in the private sector. They worked for the Government. How else would they get these millions except throught the sale of political favors? Some one needs to investigate the Clintons. Our first "Mafia" President.

Our first "Mafia" President.

Even THE MOB disavowed them.... 

"My client had nothing to do with the low-rent, trailer-park trash politicians who infested our country for the past eight years."

Michael Rosen, lawyer for Thomas Gambino, son of late Mafia boss Carlo Gambino
New York Post via The Wall Street Journal
 

(Michael Rosen was understandably eager to distance his client, a convicted loan shark, from the clintons. Another Thomas Gambino reportedly paid $50,000 to roger clinton in an unsuccessful effort to get a pardon for his father, Rosario Gambino.),


It's not easy to play fair against Mr. and Mrs. Clinton, who, in the words of the authors, "operated like a crime family, expecting friends and aides to protect them even against their own best interests." What's amazing, of course, is that's exactly what Clinton friends and aides have always done, from Susan McDougal to Webster Hubbell to flocks of nameless White House special assistants. Even Jim McDougal died just in time to deprive the independent counsel of a key witness against Mrs. Clinton, thus derailing what the authors report to have been her likely indictment for perjury and obstruction related to the Whitewater investigation....     

Reading the tumultuous events of the Lewinsky probe in a comprehensive narrative is unlike attempting to make sense of it in daily doses. Something different comes through the heavy accumulation of detail of, for example, the duplicity of the Justice Department, or the sharklike behavior of the White House. One begins to get a choking sense of the atmosphere of corruption and ruthlessness the Clintons inhabit -- and, worse, have forced the rest of us to inhabit. Taken in one piece, the habitual, even casual abuse of power on display begins to resemble conditions one normally associates with a state of totalitarianism, where such concepts as truth and justice are only paid lip service. In the end, then, it makes you wonder when there will be fresh air again.

Crime-family values

Mia-demanding of K Street contacts (the Washington Lobbyists offices are all on K Street) the same transparency of interaction between their offices and congress, that the SEC expects of corporations and corporate boards, would solve a lot. That and term limits are the solution. It is OUR fault, as citizens, if this does not come to pass.
