THE DRAMATIC INCREASE IN HILLARY CLINTON'S DISCLOSED ASSETS: An Alternative Theory
The authors ask and answer what they believe to be the central question, "What caused the jump? It might have been Dubai." 2
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
FLASHY FEINT
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.
(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. 1TURN 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."
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
You may have noticed that these days the clintons never miss an opportunity, however oblique, to segue to their purportedly newly acquired wealth. 5
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."

thanx :)
There are so many ways corrupt politicians can get paid off. We really have to go to the source and get rid of the professional pol, and fast.
I agree with you. It IS our fault. We continue to vote for these corrupt, self-serving losers.
Joe Kennedy was a piker compared to the Clintons. At least his illegal fortune came from a source -- boot-legging -- that wasn't a threat to national security. By force of wealth, however, the Kennedy dynasty has had its way with us for most of a century. May the dynasty of the less fertile Clintons be more limited.
Fortunately for us on the forum, most FReepers would opt for the former. Unfortunately for the future of our republic, most of the populace would opt for the latter (Just compare the readership of Charles Krauthammers columns with the viewership of Deal or No Deal and youll begin to get my drift).
From your reference to Red Dragon Rising: Communist Chinas Military Threat to America:
It would take a year and a half for the House of Representatives, the peoples body, to begin stripping away the Clinton administrations camouflage disguising the truth about Communist China. In May of 1999 a select Congressional committee, in a unanimous bipartisan vote, identified President Clintons betrayal of his most sacred trust safeguarding the national security of America. This is President Clintons legacy ...
After a five-month struggle with the Clinton White House over the reports declassification and release, Cox and Dicks revealed the conclusion of their committees six-month investigation: The PRC has stolen Americas most advanced nuclear weapons secrets, and Chinese espionage almost certainly continues today ...
The thesis of this work is simple: The democratic countries are about to be unpleasantly surprised by the emergence of a hostile, expansionist, nondemocratic superpower armed with the most modern weapons and it will be our fault ...
In short, through a misguided foreign policy that has sacrificed national security for money and personal political power, the Clinton-Gore administration has materially assisted Bejings military ambitions.
Adding a few more of my own dots in the depressing connect-the-dots exercise
In November 2004, Iran gave China the rights to exploit the giant Yadavaran field. Importantly, China plans to bring this oil into China, not across the Indian Ocean and through the Malacca Straits, but by pipeline across central Asia, free from the surveillance of the US fleet. Chinas attitude to Iran is foretold; it has refused to condemn Sudan over the killings in Darfur since Sudan allowed it to build a 500-mile pipeline to the coast. Ahmadinejad can therefore be 100 per cent certain that China will veto any attempt to win UN approval for military intervention in Iran Will Hutton in U.K.s Obsever
China supplies arms to Iran. Some of its firms are suspected of supplying missile technology and dual-use chemical weapons-related production equipment Many suspect that Iran has continued to get Chinese help directly or indirectly through Pakistan or North Korea Tehran has evidently acquired the technology to turn the yellow cake into uranium hexafluoride gas both by using lasers and centrifuges. This can be used to make nuclear weapon earlywarning.com
The successful effort by China to obtain U.S. microchip technology included espionage, sabotage and perhaps bribery. The red intelligence windfall freed the Chinese army to more accurately target American cities with atomic weapons using advanced U.S technology The legacy that President Clinton left for the 21st century is a modern Chinese army equipped for global nuclear war Charles R. Smith, President and CEO of SOFTWAR, and leading expert on cyber technology and its implications for war and terrorism
In all likelihood we will be glowing in the dark before we discover the true extent of the Clinton decade of betrayal Rick Fisher, Asian Security Fellow at the Center for Security Policy
Yet the same man who single-handedly oversaw the most treasonous act in the history of this republic, placing personal political power over maintaining the integrity of our national sovereignty and security, became incensed (understatement of the century) when Chris Wallace suggested that he dropped the ball in his efforts to corner Osama bin Laden.
(Help me out here. Where have I witnessed that wagging finger before?)
The accusation that Clinton fumbled the ball when he had the opportunity to capture bin Laden absolutely pales in comparison to the knowledge that he provided our greatest ideological enemy with dozens of advanced technological devices and systems (including, but by no means limited to, radiation hardened chip sets which are critical for atomic warfare and are required by advanced nuclear tipped missiles), which China apparently intends to share with other hostile coutries, and which are surely destined to represent the means to destroy the nation he was elected to protect and defend.

Allegiance and Duty Betrayed
Thanks. I agree with you whole heartedly. Hillary Clinton will never sit in the Oval Office. She doesn't have her husbands charisma, and people don't like her. She & her husband are a disgrace to this country. I take back what I said about the "Mafia President". The Mafia has more honor than either of these two griftters. I dislike this woman intensely, and as a woman she doesn't represent any of my values. It's discernment on my part I am sure. I've never liked or trusted either of these people on sight before we knew anything about them. That's a bad omen as far as I'm concerned, and it's proven to be true all my life.
Plain and simple shakedown artists.
That's copyrightable.
Ping me!
bump
... and psychopaths.
bookmk ping-a-ling and THANKS , Mia T for your energy and grace
Your idea of incredible discipline is a thought, but heres another. Why show off their ill gotten gains when they were living high on the hog in the Governors mansion in Arkansas and the White House.
These two places have benefits that mopney cant buy. They pay the bills for entertaining. for travel for bodyguards.
Why spend or show your own stash when you are living about as high as it gets while sucking on the Government tit.
Now its a different story, Bubba has to pay for his own travel and the benefits are gone--all but the secret Service agent--and we all know what Hillary's senate salary is so now they show their money.
"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....."
It's not called the "Patriot Act" for nuthin'
......and if it was you or me we be settling into the Federal pen for the rest of our lives.....

More generally, both clinton failures--terrorism (clinton didn't drop the ball. He refused to catch it.) and proliferation of WMD technology were willful acts of betrayal... and they are connected.

excellent point
thank you :)
thank you :)
Who killed Vince Foster?
------whoever killed Vince Foster, or whoever felt he had to move Foster's body if VF did in fact commit suicide, is probably known by whoever it was who paid that goon to trail Patrick Knowlton all over Washington DC and environs
for weeks once Knowlton came forward to report some strange goings on in the FMP parking lot. But of course it was never seriously investigated, and obviously it was made clear to all who had questions about inconsistencies that the case was considered "closed".But thanks for bringing it up, because it may have been a watershed moment in our relationship with the Clintons: it was there that we learned "nothing to see here---just move on." It didn't start with Monica or even the lengthy Whitewater non-investigation.
will do. Thx. :)
