Is this a way for Bennet and the others to sneak a pro bono donation to Clinton? If so, Clinton should be held liable for taxes, as that would be considered income. Also, Bennet would be liable for gift taxes...not certain, however. Would need a tax person to say fer shur.

So William Jefferson (affectionally known as "B.J.") Clinton is in the news again. I see by the tabloids that Chelsea is going to have a $1,000,000 wedding. I'm sure that his former lawyers will not mind delaying their payment until after the last chick has left the nest.

I'm sure that the lawyers never planned on getting paid. The problem is they couldn't just give millions of dollars in legal services to a sitting president. It wouldn't look good plus I'm pretty sure it wouldn't be legal. By waiting until Clinton was out of office and just not collecting they can slip it in the back door.

When someone owes you a large sum, he takes the attitude that he owns you: you have to do whatever he says or he won't pay you.

So the stiffees have to Lewinsky to get their $.

WELL, NOW; BOTH the "Clintoons" are members of the "Brotherhood of Lawyers!"

For them to "Stiff" a "Fellow Lawyer" is a Radical Departure from normal "Bar" behavior!

Their "Colleagues" would (under "normal circumstances") expect the "Clintoons," (Legal Colleagues) to arrange for some SUCKER(s) to "Foot the Bill!!"

ALAS!! The "Clintoons" have "burned SO many LEGAL "Bridges," they have NO SUCKERS LEFT!!

So the "Bills" go Unpaid---& the inherent Phoniness of the "System" is furthur exposed!

ONCE AGAIN, the Corrupt Behavior of these "people" exposes a Terrible Flaw in our Legal System.

Ultimately--If we learn from their Corruption--, the "Clintoons" may help us rescue our Republic!

...they're still stiffing their lawyers...

Yet the impeached *Pair can afford a few multimillion dollar mansions and international vacations every other week. At this rate, there won't be any loot left. Chelsea better elope...

Prince William the Impeached has visited 30 (yes, THIRTY) foreign nations since he left office in January 2001.
Wonder WHO is paying for those little trips?? [As if we don't already know...]

Two low-life lawyers stiffing a bunch of other low-life lawyers -- PRICELESS.

We are killing ourselves to pay lawyer bills to the tune of a mere $20,000. But we are doing it, come hell or high water, and every spare penny goes into satisfying that debt. We live on a pittance compared with King William and Queen Hillary. I guess they were right. "The rich" (meaning themselves) are immoral. Funny. Those people who criticize GW for being born with a silver spoon in his mouth will probably find him paying his bills. But in their view, this means nothing. You're a villain if you were born into wealth, but if you were raised in a whorehouse by a madam and a drunk, well, that qualifies you as a man of the people.

How typical of the trailer park trash who furnished their two homes with stolen WH souveniers or gifts from others! Even his daughter's wedding is being paid for by the groom's parents, so this comes as no surprise. Frankly the thought he's shafting Kendall is sweet justice.
