Turning the Culture of Corruption Charge Against the Dems
Bill Clinton got into a bit of trouble in the mid 1990s over fund raising. It seems that he liked to accept money from China. Fund raising errors are not limited to Bubba, Hill is having her share as well.
It seems that a family living in a modest green home in Daly City, CA is one of Hillarys largest single donors.
According to the [1] Wall Street Journal:
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 Manhattans 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 isnt 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 couples 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 Journals investigation has uncovered that the Paw family has close links to political donor Norman Hsu. According to public records, Hsu once used the Paws address as his. This has raised eyebrows at the Federal Election Commission. The FEC is investigating Hsus political activity for evidence of fraud.
