Mired in Scandal, Clinton Criticizes Herself at Campaign Stop

Hurry, send me more funny money

Well, in so many words. The High Priestess of Hypocrisy took a swipe at "rich" people while conveniently overlooking the fact she and her husband have gotten very wealthy with very little effort.

Does an $8 million advance for a ghost-written book ring any bells?

HILLARY'S KICK IN THE 'CLASS'
"It is not rich people who made America great, it is hardworking Americans," Clinton told a crowd of 2,000 activists at a Labor Day picnic in Sioux City, Iowa.
That, of course, would rule out the greedy Clintons, unless destroying people's lives is considered hard work.
Later, at a labor rally in Des Moines, she inveighed against the "concentration of wealth, hoarding of power [and] smearing [of] dissenters" for which she blamed the present administration.
Slight bit of projection, eh Pantsuit?
She added: "I'm going to ask distinguished Americans of both parties, including my husband" to jet to foreign lands to deliver the message: "America is back."
We never left, you idiot.

Meanwhile, after Slick said he was shocked (as if) at the ongoing funny money scandals surrounding the Clintons, we find out it's not just limited to the recent Hsu-nami which now has Norman Hsu linked to a missile trader.

GP notes now there's some possible illegal dough coming from a Japanese source.

And what do you know, now there's also suspicious cash from an Indian donor.
WASHINGTON - Sant Chatwal, an Indian American businessman, has helped raise hundreds of thousands of dollars for Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton's campaigns, even as he battled governments on two continents to escape bankruptcy and millions of dollars in tax liens.

The founder of the Bombay Palace restaurant chain, Chatwal is one of a growing number of fundraisers in the 2008 presidential campaign whose backgrounds have prompted questions about how much screening the candidates devote to their "bundlers" while they press to raise record amounts.

Chatwal's case reached from his native India to New York City. The IRS pursued him for about $4 million in unpaid business taxes, while New York state placed a lien seeking more than $5 million in taxes.
It never ends with the sleazy Clintons.

Needless to say, it's time the Justice Department opened an investigation into the flow of foreign contributions to the Clinton machine.

Do they have the guts to take them on?
