Clinton Returned $7,000, Campaign Says (Chinese Money)...

these articles are in the news every day and not one republican has called for an investigation!!!

[Jack Hammer]

Unfortunately, she had to confess to the would-be “donors” that she no longer has access to confidential military tedchnology and information critical to national security. No doubt they’ll be back to buy if she’s elected president.

Now there’s a photo I want to see on the front page of every newspaper the day after the 08 election.

Clinton Returned $7,000, Campaign Says Where's the proof. I demand we see the proof.

[Dad yer funny]

.. so , just a FRiendly FReeper need for info , . . .

what news outlets/press are you reading , listening to , watching?

I’ve been pretty much of a NewsJunkie for 30 years , or so , and I need to support the people covering this daily

thanks in advance

[Dad yer funny]

. . so , in the deadTreeEdition of The Tiny New York Times ( formerly The New York Times ) ...

this story is relegated to page A14 ,.. right across from the full page of obituaries , A15 , then A16-17 OpEd , and the last page (full page ad) A18

they’ve squeezed this short piece in Saturday’s edition so they can say they have reported it ,.. and the ClintonOperatives can all cluck “OLD NEWS , OLD NEWS!!!” when this comes up in the future

the KILLER-DILLER line , for me , is the begining of the 4th paragraph: “The Clinton campaign said that after the Chinatown fund-raiser in April, which raised about $380,000, aides conducted a standard review of the donor list...”

so , they were doing standard donor vetting in April ,.. and The Smartest Micro-Manager In The World doesn’t know shit ,.. .. well , well WELL

{{ not gonna hold my breath to see if any of this gets spoken of tomorrow }}

[Kaslin]

She gave them to her favorite charity...

Which is the

HILLARY FOR PRESIDENT 2008 charity

The Dems may do the same to Cankles... as they did to Dean in 2004. By being too smart by half... at the eleventh hour, they go with Obama because of his lesser negatives.

[Dad yer funny]

yup ,.. I wouldn’t bet against that scenario ..

even here in NYC , there are many Lefties uneasy with Herself’s “Fast’n Loose & F*CK YOU TOO” campaign staff

In today's Daily News:

Hillary's Chinatown fund-raiser draws Edwards' criticism

(snip)
Chung Seto, organizer of an April fund-raiser and former executive director of the New York State Democratic Party, said event planners took "extraordinary measures" to ensure that the donations were lawful.

Insinuations to the contrary are "outrageous" and "racist," she said. "Donors who work hard every day - they are in the restaurant or garment industry - should not be questioned about why they choose to be involved in the political process."

Bo Jie Wu, a money-transfer store employee, told the Daily News he gave $1,000 to Clinton because he believes in her.

Hsiao Yen Wang, a nursing assistant, said it was a "pleasure" for her and her husband, a cook, to give Clinton $1,000 because "I would like to see the United States have the first woman President."

"Asian Americans have as much right to contribute as every other American," said Howard Wolfson, a campaign spokesman.

First of all, Wolfson is no mere "campaign spokesman." He is the head of the whole sleazy HRC campaign, at least in New York.

Wolfson is trying to camouflage the serious issues raised by the LA Times article as one of "rights" for Asian Americans. The fact is that many of the alleged contributors weren't Americans at all, and therefore the campaign blatantly violated federal election law with such contributions. Furthermore, in some instances, these contributors were not voluntarily exercising "rights," but rather were coerced into coughing up cash for Her Royal Thighness' treasury.

I watched that video. It is beyond the pale, but then again we are talking about Xlinton.

[justiceseeker93]

It's obious that the whole purpose of this NY Slimes story is to do damge control for HRC's campaign after the surprising bombshell of Friday's LA Times article.

Returning a very small percentage of the illegally raised cash isn't much of an answer to the LA Times story, however.

[justiceseeker93]

Another HRC campaign finance ping!

Plese see my posts #s 52 and 53.

[ml/nj]

How did she return money to donors who cannot be found?

ML/NJ

[Alamo-Girl]

Thanks for the ping!

[rodeo-mamma]

Will that woman ever be held accountable? And when will the American people start to care that there is a reason why the Communist Chinese are interested in seeing Hillary elected, it is because they are from the same political party, that's why! Bottom line, the Chinese know that Hillary is just as much an enemy to the United States as they are. I just want to know when the brain dead moderates are going to start to give a damn!!!

[Miss Didi]

Right...they sent the checks back promptly, I am most sure (from yesterday's NY Post):

[potlatch]

Thank you for the ping justice.
