The Los Angeles Times reported today:
The Los Angeles Times reports on this website tonight and in Wednesday's print editions that a major Democratic Party fundraiser named Norman Hsu (pictured) is wanted by authorities for skipping out on an agreement to serve up to three years in prison after pleading no contest to grand theft swindling charges.This latest news does make it kinda hard to forget about all of those other Clinton scandal records. The Republicans are certainly having problems of their own, but having the scandal-plagued Clinton's as your past and present party favorites does not say much for your organization.
In a story by Chuck Neubauer and Robin Fields, The Times reports that for three years Hsu has been carving out a place of political and financial influence by funneling hundreds of thousands of dollars in campaign contributions into Democratic Party coffers, much of the money earmarked for Sen. Hillary Clinton. He has earned the ranking of Hillraiser for pledging to raise at least $100,000 for her.
In just the last 36 months Hsu has been involved in raising more than $1 million for Clinton and other Democrats. Howard Wolfson, a spokesman for the Clinton campaign, confirmed today that Hsu had been a "longtime and generous supporter" of the party including Clinton. "We have no reason to call his contributions into question or to return them," Wolfson added.
Hsu has developed a specialty of bundling hefty campaign contributions from obscure citizens who live modest lives and have never before given money to campaigns. Many are not even registered to vote.
Over the years other recipients of Hsu donations have included Sens. Dianne Feinstein, Barack Obama, Joe Biden and Edward Kennedy.

"* The most number of witnesses to flee the country or refuse to testify
ReplyDelete* The most number of key witnesses to die suddenly"
Those two are the scariest stats. It's like the Gambino family. People either flee, take the 5th, or die. Not a good thing for the future of our Nation.
There are others to add
ReplyDeleteFund raisers for
Debbie Stabinow
Elliot Spitzer
and Cuomo for AG
The Clintons believe they are above the law - now that is scary.
ReplyDeleteDidn't the Clintons also set a record for number of terrorists pardoned?
ReplyDeleteHmmm...
ReplyDeleteI question the timing.
Isn't it just a teeny bit surprising that the Sen. Craig story broke 24 hours before this one did? That way the MSM can shriek about Sen. Craig while quietly burying this story like a turd they fished out of the punch bowl.
Of course you know that the Senate will not investigate this, either.
Five bucks says that this story will not be mentioned on any MSM outlet and if it is it will be a quickie obfuscation.
..but...but...but...
ReplyDeleteLarry Craig is teh ghey!!11!!1!
WANTED: Major Swindler, Or HILLARY CLINTON & THE TALE OF THE TWIN TOWERS
ReplyDeleteSet the Wayback Machine for 1991, on a warm afternoon at San Jose State University, Bill Clinton, running against George H.W. Bush and H. Ross Perot, tells Californians the "Peace Dividend" should be used to beat swords into plowshares.
In order to pirate the "dividend," Bill Clinton sets up a college. In 1993 Clinton appoints Congressman Leon Panetta, OMB Director and Panetta puts Fort Ord on the block. At Panetta's behest, Congress passes the Pryor Amendment. That is, Fort Ord without use restrictions; the amendment even appropriates money for legal defenses. Les Aspen, slated to head the campus, passes away prematurely. Clinton appoints Panetta chief of staff in 1994. And, The Presidential Search Committee picks Vermont's Peter P. Smith. Currently, former Arkansas Governor David H. Pryor (D) serves as Dean of the Clinton School of Public Service, Little Rock, Arkansas.
Ushered through the California Legislature as a San Jose State, Salinas, extension campus – with help from newly appointed CSU Chancellor Barry Munoz, the politicos co-opt the proposed extension on Fort Ord – and christen it their own personal residential campus, CSU Monterey Bay. Bill Clinton dedicates CSU-MB, Labor Day 1995. And Leon Panetta knows the Clinton "20-year plan." The Clinton curriculum leads columnist George F. Will to write, “Plain English does not seem to be a spoken dialect at CSU-MB.” As it turns out, Arabic was. First order of business: train Middle Eastern flight-students.
November 2001, Bill Clinton speaking at (his alma mata) Georgetown University says, “Here in the United States, we were founded as a nation that practiced slavery, and slaves quite frequently were killed even though they were innocent.” “This country once looked the other way when a significant number of Native Americans were dispossessed and killed.” Clinton went back centuries to regale Georgetown students with Crusader atrocities against Moslems, "we are still paying for it."
At CSU-MB’s dedication, when Bill Clinton called the nonprofit sector “a political gold mine,” few knew the politicos had already purchased several large tracts of military housing from the DOD, for $1-dollar. That, nonprofits use “foundations” to funnel profits wherever they desire. Nothing is greedier than a California landlord; Fort Ord’s new owners are no exception. They ruthlessly misrepresent the campus and pocket untold millions of dollars in student rents, etc. As the years progress, the politicos perpetrate every education fraud imaginable.
Bill Clinton concluded his Georgetown speech, by saying that the issue revolves around “the nature of truth.” Maybe so, but that’s a straw man: an argument set up to be defeated. As early as 1993, the Clintons began siphoning off the so called “Peace Dividend” to further their own political aspirations, elect Hillary Clinton president of the United States, and create the progressive paradigm best suited to return Bill Clinton to the White House, a wartime co-president. Truth is, nobody games the system like the Clintons: http://theseedsof9-11.com
“The problem was with Bill Clinton, the scandals and rumored scandals, the incubating ones and the dying ones never ended. Whatever moral compass the president was consulting was leading him in the wrong direction. His closets were full of skeletons just waiting to burst out.” -FBI Director Louis J. Freeh
