Clinton Campaign Will Keep Contributions
The New York Times ^ | August 29, 2007 | Leslie Wayne

Posted on 08/29/2007 5:02:12 AM PDT by libstripper

The Clinton campaign said today that it saw no reason to return donations from two major campaign contributors whose donations, according to the Wall Street Journal, closely track one another.

The Journal reported that a total of $200,000 in donations to Democratic committees and candidates from the Paw family of Daley City, Calif., and those of Norman Hsu, a wealthy New York businessmen who is a major Democratic donor and Clinton fund-raiser, had sometimes taken place about the same time. The article also said the Paw family lived in a modest house and raised questions about their ability to make such large donations. But Lawrence Barcello, an attorney for Mr. Hsu, denied any suggestions that the Paw family donations had indeed come from Mr. Hsu rather than the Paws.

The Witch is saying she's going to keep all the Chicom $$$. I wonder how long this is going to last.

Links to the two prior articles about this growing scandal:

One post - it doesn't even have to be an article - can change everything. You were here in Sept. 2004 - you forgot already?

When will these grifters finally get tagged with something illegal?? Bill and Hill are the most corrupt politicians to ever hit the national scene and yet the Republicans are the ones limping along under the Culture of Corruption moniker. Please, someone, make some of the Clinton’s crimes stick!

I've been here since 2000... and that's why I reiterate: Two articles don't make a scandal.

Why doesn’t the DOJ investigate these scumbags instead of Libby and Weldon?

I’m with you in your scepticism.

The professional grifters always seem to skate, with the help of the media. The left will do ANYTHING to defend these people. And the media is infested with leftists.

Gee, if this ‘watchdog media’ falls for this, soon hundreds of homeless people will be donating millions to Hillary.

The Clintons are the picture of what is wrong with America. They are cheats, liars, thieves and have no morals.

To cover up their deceptions; they trot out another Republican with problems. This is getting old.

They should really be in jail.

Probably because the Bushes have a long and questionable relationship with the Clintons which at least goes back as far as Mena, Arkansas. See: http://www.opinionjournal.com/extra/?id=110003549

Of course, she won’t return it. The toons are all about money and power. “They” deserve it, you know!
