Big Source of Clinton's Cash Is an Unlikely Address (Caught!)
Wall Street Journal ^ | 8/28/07 | BRODY MULLINS

DALY CITY, Calif. -- One of the biggest sources of political donations to Hillary Rodham Clinton is a tiny, lime-green bungalow that lies under the flight path from San Francisco International Airport.

Six members of the Paw family, each listing the house at 41 Shelbourne Ave. as their residence, have donated a combined $45,000 to the Democratic senator from New York since 2005, for her presidential campaign, her Senate re-election last year and her political action committee. In all, the six Paws have donated a total of $200,000 to Democratic candidates since 2005, election records show.

That total ranks the house with residences in Greenwich, Conn., and Manhattan's Upper East Side among the top addresses to donate to the Democratic presidential front-runner over the past two years, according to an analysis by The Wall Street Journal of donations listed with the Federal Election Commission.

It isn't obvious how the Paw family is able to afford such political largess. Records show they own a gift shop and live in a 1,280-square-foot house that they recently refinanced for $270,000. William Paw, the 64-year-old head of the household, is a mail carrier with the U.S. Postal Service who earns about $49,000 a year, according to a union representative. Alice Paw, also 64, is a homemaker. The couple's grown children have jobs ranging from account manager at a software company to "attendance liaison" at a local public high school. One is listed on campaign records as an executive at a mutual fund.

The Paws' political donations closely track donations made by Norman Hsu, a wealthy New York businessman in the apparel industry who once listed the Paw home as his address, according to public records. Mr. Hsu is one of the top fund-raisers for Mrs. Clinton's presidential campaign.

Sounds like the Paws are probably being unknowingly "fronted" as the people who launder Hsu's donations to Hitlery.

But of course, Mrs. Bill Clinton "knew nothing about it..."

With that kind of income, could they even afford a house in San Fran? I wouldn’t think so.

A mail carrier and a housewife? Maybe in Oklahoma City but not in the Bay area?

Now that her latest scam is exposed, the First Witch will just claim ignorance, give the money back, and the MSM will just sweep the whole thing under the rug. The money will just have to find another way into her account.

As in Bill’s terms the corruption with the Chinese and foreign financing of there campaigns should be punished. The Clintoons are still doing what they do best, selling out America for a fast buck. Amen.

One would think that such irregularities would at least trigger an IRS audit. Any “gift” over $10K is supposed to be reported. I know this is a “Clintonista” tactic but turnabout is fair play. “Follow the money”

I'm guessing it's what they call truant officers nowadays.

Well, this (real) news will be dwarfed by the news about a Republican Senator caught being a homo in the Minneapolis airport men’s room.

I’m filing this to my Sunday Talk Show thread.

Another bullet in my “Yes, the driveby media is biased towards the democrats” six-shooter.

A few of the former co-president, and now abiding in a government protection program called the US Senate, limited positives.

“It isn’t obvious how the Paw family is able to afford such political largess.”

I bet they got the money by speculating in cattle futures.
