klintoon klepto-bribery BUMP!

Sen. Clinton made another assertion - one that is equally misleading.
She contends she was not obliged to report the first Leiber bag she received "because it was received before the Clintons entered the White House."
But this bag, valued at $3,500, was received after the election and during the transition and therefore obviously was related to the Clinton presidency.

Among the gifts that former president Bill Clinton says he is keeping as
personal presents he accepted last year are $28,000 worth of furnishings
that documents and interviews indicate were given to the National Park
Service in 1993 as part of the permanent White House collection...

Two of the furniture makers whose donations Clinton took with him on
leaving the White House last month say they gave them to the White House
as part of a widely publicized, $396,000 redecoration of the executive
mansion and not to Clinton personally.

"When we've been asked to donate, it was always hyphenated with the
words, " 'White House,' " New York manufacturer Steve Mittman said of
his family-owned business, which gave two sofas, an easy chair and an
ottoman, worth $19,900 and listed by Clinton as part of the gifts he
took with him. "To us, it was not a donation to a particular person."

Gifts Were Not Meant for Clintons, Some Donors Say

When I created the following metaphoric musing a year before the clintons "moved," I never imagined that she would-- that they would-- in real life-- in real time-- actually swipe the sofa. Smaller objects neatly tuck-able in nuncupative deals & unnumbered Swiss accounts, without question-- BUT THE SOFA??
