Norman Hsu: Where does he get the money?

August 31, 2007

The mystery of Norman Hsu deepens today with a New York Times report on his collapsing cover stories. While the Gray Lady tries to focus on the sudden retreat of Democrats from a man who has raised almost a million dollars for them, the real story comes in the second half of the article — in which Hsu appears to be a front:

People who met him said they knew only that he ran an apparel business. Efforts to learn more about his trade hit dead-ends yesterday. Visits to companies at addresses listed by Mr. Hsu on campaign finance records provided little information. There were no offices in buildings in New York’s garment district whose addresses were given for businesses with names like Components Ltd., Cool Planets, Next Components, Coopgors Ltd., NBT and Because Men’s clothing — all listed by Mr. Hsu in federal filings at different times.

At a new loft-style residential condominium in SoHo that was also listed as an address for one of his companies, an employee there said that he had never seen or heard of Mr. Hsu. Another company was listed at a condo that Mr. Hsu had sublet in an elegant residential tower in Midtown Manhattan just off Fifth Avenue, but an employee there said Mr. Hsu moved out two years ago, after having lived there for five years. The employee, who was granted anonymity because he was not authorized to talk about residents, said he recalled that Mr. Hsu had received a lot of mail from the Democratic Party.

Hillary Clinton told a Manhattan audience yesterday that her team tries to do the best they can in vetting volunteers. How could any vetting process possibly miss this? None of his story checks out at all, not even with the most cursory look at his record. It's filled with false addresses. Not even his listed residence appears current. Exactly what kind of vetting did Hillary do?

Fugitive Hillary Clinton Fundraiser Norman Hsu Turns Self in to Police

August 31, 2007

The other Tsu has dropped!  Hillary's fundraiser has turned himself into police…finally.  Wonder if he'll have any interesting tidbits to tell them.

Norman Hsu

From Fox News:

A top Democratic fundraiser wanted as a fugitive in California turned himself in Friday to face a grand theft charge.

San Mateo County Superior Court Judge H. James Ellis ordered Norman Hsu handcuffed and held on $2 million bond. A bail hearing was scheduled for Sept. 5, at which the judge will consider reducing his bail to $1 million.

Hsu appeared in court accompanied by a lawyer and publicist, both of whom declined to say whether the New York apparel executive would immediately post bail. A warrant was issued for his arrest after he skipped the sentencing for a 1991 grand theft charge.

Hillary Clinton is Right: A Republican Will Win The White House

August 31, 2007

By Douglas MacKinnon 

In the cesspool that Washington has become, truth and clarity still manage to bubble to the surface on occasion.

As Senator Hillary Clinton intensifies and refines her spin, deception, and self-aggrandizement, she inadvertently slipped up in a big way and revealed a truth that will doom her campaign and her party’s chances to reclaim the White House in 2008.

Last week, while campaigning in New Hampshire, Senator Clinton said, “It’s a horrible prospect to ask yourself, ‘What if? What if?’ But if certain things happen between now and the election, particularly with respect to terrorism, that will automatically give the Republicans an advantage again…”

Said comment was immediately attacked by some of her Democratic rivals for the White House. Why? Because they don’t want the voters of America to be reminded that when it comes to terrorism, the Republican candidates are much more willing to do whatever it takes to protect the homeland.

About the same time that Senator Clinton was offering a truth she is now desperate to take back, Vice Admiral (Ret) John Scott Redd, the Head of the National Counterterrorism Center, was granting an interview to Newsweek magazine in which he categorically stated that “We have very strong indicators that Al Qaeda is planning to attack the West.” When pressed on where, he continued, “Well, they would like to come West, and they would like to come as far West as they can.” Obviously, “as far West as they can,” would be the United States.

Clinton Campaign Financing Scandals Take Front And Center Stage

August 31, 2007

A little more than 10 years ago, Mrs. Clinton's husband - William Jefferson Clinton - and the man who created the Internet and discovered Global Warming - Albert Gore Jr. - were embroiled in the largest series of campaign finance scandals ever to rock Washington, DC., a city where garden variety political graft and campaign finance shenanigans go unnoticed simply because they are omnipresent.

Clinton Campaign Dirty Money

In 1996 crooked Asian businessmen, acting as agents for the ChiComs funneled huge amounts of cash into the campaign, intent upon gaining access to military secrets, including plans to build MIRV type nuclear warheads.

Even though Clinton's lap-dog attorney general Janet Reno stonewalled any real investigation, refusing to appoint a special prosecutor in the matter, over 20 people were convicted for campaing finance abuse. To avoid prosecution, dozens fled the United States for safer climes.

So who is the new Clinton mystery funder?

Why its fugitive Norman Hsu, on the lam from California law enforcement authorities for 15 years and scheduled to host a September 30 fundraiser for the "smartest woman in America," Hillary Clinton.

Why is it that scandal is always associated with Bill, Hillary and their friends?

Is it that perhaps they are corrupt?

Liar Hellary Rotten Clinton, what have you done?

August 31, 2007

By Tom Kuiper
 
Hillary just announced that her campaign will "increase our vigilance" when it comes to accepting money from well-heeled donors, also known as "bundlers." Strangely enough, this comes after the discovery that a major Clinton fundraiser is on the lam from California authorities. Not that she demonstrates it often, but here's a clear indication that Hillary's sense of humor is alive and well.

Liar Hillary

And speaking of indicators, anyone who thinks that Hillary actually cares about where her campaign donations come from really should have their head examined. As I demonstrate numerous times in "I've Always Been a Yankees Fan: Hillary Clinton In Her Own Words", Hillary has a long, colorful and thoroughly documented history of doing pretty much anything – and putting up with just about anyone – for money.

Who can forget her classic (not to mention classy) plea during a phone call to Jim McDougal, the morning after Bill Clinton's defeat in the 1980 gubernatorial election, "You need to send us money. We need it now, and we need all you can send!" Or her "advice" to Bill Clinton, then president of the United States, during the 1996 campaign when he complained he was tired of fundraising, "You're getting you're a– out there, and you're doing what has to be done"?

Then, of course, there's the thousands of dollars Hillary and Bill accepted from Denise Rich, ex-wife of millionaire and renowned tax cheat Marc Rich, who at the time was also a fugitive from justice. (No doubt it's purely coincidental that Clinton pardoned Marc Rich on his last day in office.)

Hillary was also happy to take money from Johnny Chung, who once compared the Clinton White House to a subway: "You have to put in money to open the gates." Of course, it costs somewhat more to get on board the Clinton Express than it does the local metro – Chung once gave Hillary's top aide a bag filled with $50,000 in cash. No need for vetting on this one!
