Should we explore this further and find out if he paid cash to Clinton, Gore, Leahe, Dachale, Gephart, and the Democrook Party in general. Hell, we know he did! Why bother, as few care.

It is the dirty little secret of Islam that mullahs can be bought. The Shah of Iran said the biggest mistake he ever made was when he quit bribing the mullahs.

Yes, I seem to recall that the custom was to leave $50,000 in cash at the White House, as a sort of house gift, and sometimes more. Considering the unsavory drug dealers and mobsters known to have been among these donors, it would hardly be surprising if a few Bin Ladenites were among their number.
