Former President Bill Clinton was showered with pricey gifts while he was in office from the leaders of Nigeria, Saudi Arabia and elsewhere, but he didn't disclose them because they were earmarked for his presidential library in Arkansas...

...where his new apartment will be located.

AFTER they used them! The presidential library for the ClintonS is such a joke. That's an excuse for everything they do wrong and ILLEGAL. Just another way to funnel money and other goodies to them personally.

The lavish gifts included a $75,000 gold sword and clock, $45,000 diamond- and emerald-encrusted cufflinks and a watch, paintings and gold bracelets worth $31,540.

Clinton also got a $90,000 Harry Truman-signed letter from Malcolm Forbes, a $50,000 photograph owned by Vietnam War Memorial designer Maya Lin, and a $9,000 old Navajo blanket from Larry Rockefeller.

It seems the New York Times left out a few things. Imagine that?!

I'm sure the jewelry won't be used by them later on either. /sarcasm

I think the ol' Clinton Library will be coming into the news again in a month or two, so here's an old times' sake bump. I know what Denise Rich ogt out of this deal but what did Nelson Mandela?
