Shocker: Hillary Would Like Returned Cash Back

From the Baltimore Sun:


Clinton: Won’t ask, but wants her money back

by David Nitkin

She doesn’t want to ask, but it sure sounds like Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton wants her $850,000 back.

Clinton confirmed today that she is open to re-collecting the money that her campaign is returning to donors who were solicited by convicted businessman Norman Hsu, but she said she was not overtly making such a request.

“I’m not predicting that. We are not asking that that be done,” Clinton said. “But I believe the vast majority of those 200-plus donors are perfectly capable of making up their own minds of what they will or won’t do going forward.”

She is counting on everyone to do the right thing.

    Why does that picture make me think of the line, Thank you sir may I have another.

    That is the most hideous photograph I have ever seen…. That is what nightmares are made of.. But this is even worse. ***** http://thehive.modbee.com/file.....linton.bmp

    Well this all just makes perfect sense to me. She just wants the money……..”Show me the money”. Doesn’t matter that the money may have come from ill-begotten sources. Doesn’t matter the money may have been out and out stolen. Doesn’t matter that maybe the money came from a foreign government. As long as some snake oil salesman can make it comeback “cleansed” she’ll take it. Personally, I hope she does because the toothpaste is out of the tube on this one and I think she’ll pay dearly for it in the end. Maybe I’m just being too optimistic, but that’s just me.

    Whoever said she gave the money back? The MEDIA? Just because they said so? PUH LEEZE……….. Only a Democrat could be that STUPID.

  5. DEZ

    You bring up an interesting point lipstick.
    Even if she did give the money back, The cash was funneled from Hsu via the donors.
    Just who was the money returned to? The donors? Hsu?
    Anybody have any help on this? Cause this looks like a spider web from hell.

    FRAUD……

    All the way around.

    OK, a simple question fellow S & Ler’s, my understanding is the maximum allowable donation by an individual is $2,600 even when “bundled” with other “contributions”, quote / unquote. I have not verified if this is indeed a true limit but something seems amiss here.
    Shrillary’s camp, by their own admission, is returning $850K to about 260 individual donors, well, at least that’s the story being propagandized.
    Hmmm, simple math says that is an average of roughly $3,269 dollars per “donor”. My math skills may be a bit rusty but IMHO, that seriously exceeds the limit set forth by the FEC, no matter how you cut it.

    Am I wrong in my assumption? Just sayin’….???……;o)

    Hey Gila,
    I remember from college that there are imaginary numbers. They are used extensively in algebra and apparently in Democratic accounting practices.

    Here’s an update from Colorado’s KJCT8.com:

    Hsu’s bond set at $5 million

    UPDATE: During a bond hearing Norman Hsu’s bond was set at $5 million cash only, also Hsu waived extradition today in court and will return to California as soon as transportation is arranged. ABC News reports it may be two weeks before San Mateo Sheriff’s Office picks up Hsu…

    Think about it…

    1. Hillary “Milhouse” Clinton gets caught with fradulent donation dollars.

    2. Promises to return it (you’re right, to whom? - hello secret service is there an available forensic cpa or international money laundering consultant available?)

    3. Has the mind blowing - out of touch reality audacity to suggest that if they want to give the money back they can (oddly enough a predictable thought given their past wacky logic)

    I am reminded of the woman who ran over her husband TWICE. What, the second time is free?

    Note to Mrs Clinton: Dear, you really need to lay off what ever it is you’re taking to put up with your husband. It’s starting to show.

  11. Warmonger Infidel

    SG…..do you know if that’s a federal or state bond? Curious about why it will take so long for the San Mateo sheriff to claim him and why federal marshals don’t just take him back after he waived extradition. This case is screwy.

  12. 1sttofight

    Why are they even offering bail? How many times does he have to jump bail before he is denied?

    He has already plead guility, just throw his ass in jail and be done with it.

  13. Warmonger Infidel

    Good question 1st…of course why are we talking bail in the first place when he has already been convicted (plead no contest). Probably some statute that requires the judge to set a number, but if he should come up with the money, the judge could add conditions. Just my guess. Anyone know if he’s ever been actually sentenced for his plea in the original case?

  14. Kilmeny

    I knew it would come back to her one way or another.

  15. wardmama4

    Hillary had to make the statement - because it would cover her
    1) if someone ever ferrets out her secret accounts as to how come they are so high
    2) if someone catches on that she never returned it in the first place - she can just claim that they ‘re-donated’ it to her
    3) if someone figures out she never donated any of it to charity - she can claim that they ‘re-donated’ it to her
    4) if someone squeals that she never returned it - she can claim they they ‘re-donated’ it to her

    Ok class, let us all now ’suspend disbelief’ on any and all stories about Hillary. It’s only fair.

  16. Gila Monster

    I don’t get the bail option at all. Hsu has now skipped bail twice, why allow bail when he’s obviously a flight risk?
    The two week timetable for CA authorities to take custody is also ridiculous. What, has the San Mateo Sheriff’s Dept gone green and decided to take a twenty mule team to Grand Junction?

    WI, I believe Hsu skipped town for his sentencing hearing back in 1992, he plead no contest earlier.

  17. Warmonger Infidel

    “What, has the San Mateo Sheriff’s Dept gone green and decided to take a twenty mule team to Grand Junction?”

    GM…that’s not green….think of the methane from the flatulence of the mules. The carbon footprint would be….well….globally warming.

    But thanks for the info. That’s kind of what I thought but it’s starting to get very confusing. Especially for us senior citizens (a new term I use now that I’m eligible for, but not yet collecting, social security…LOL)

    Bicycles?? And the deputies can’t eat beans or chili…..;o)

    “Hmmm, simple math says that is an average of roughly $3,269 dollars per “donor”. My math skills may be a bit rusty but IMHO, that seriously exceeds the limit set forth by the FEC, no matter how you cut it.”

    Individuals can give a total of $4,600 to a single candidate during an election cycle, $2,300 for the primaries and $2,300 for the general election.

  20. Gila Monster

    Thanks SG, I wasn’t sure but that certainly clarifies the situation.

    Does that mean Hillary is only returning money from this election cycle or is this going back to her re-election in 2006?

    Hsu’s donations go back to at least 2000 when the Hildabeast was first elected in NY so hmmm, where is the line really drawn?

  21. SG

    You’re right, GM. We need to know what election cycles they are talking about.

    But it might include all the money he has raised for Hillary since 2004. (Which I think is when Hsu began fundraising for Hillary.)

  22. Gila Monster

    That may be something we will never find out SG, unless of course Shrillary’s camp releases information concerning the contributions. I wont be holding my breath for that.

    By the way, I did find that Source Financing Investors, mentioned on the other thread about Hsu, is a valid NY corporation. Interestingly, they are registered as a “Foreign LLC”.

    I’m not sure about the significance of that fact at the moment but IMHO, this Hsu, Clinton, SFI thing sure has a foreign dirty money air about it.
