Hillary Clinton. . . should be admitted as new evidence in a California civil case, a forthcoming legal brief to be filed by argues. The tape shows Clinton speaking in 2000 with Peter Paul, a Hollywood mogul, and comic book icon Stan Lee about a massive fundraising event for her 2000 Senate race. Paul spent about $2 million of his own money to produce the event. The legal contribution limit to a candidate then was $2,000. . . A portion of the videotape captures the closing words of a lengthy conversation in which Paul was present. The voice of Hillary Clinton is heard telling Lee that Paul and her chief campaign aide "talk all the time, so she'll be the person to convey whatever I need." She is then heard adding, "I wanted to call and personally thank all of you ... [and] tell you how much this means to me. It's going to mean a lot to the president, too." Clinton and her supporters have maintained that she had no direct knowledge that the event violated campaign finance rules. In a written declaration for the California court filed on April 7, 2006, the senator said only that she didn't remember discussions with Paul about the fundraiser. A videotape shows New York Sen.

Hillary Rodham Clinton is being sought by the FBI on allegations that he funneled illegal contributions to Clinton's political action committee and to Sen. Barbara Boxer's 2004 re-election campaign. Authorities say Northridge, Calif., businessman Abdul Rehman Jinnah, 56, fled the country shortly after being indicted on charges of engineering more than $50,000 in illegal donations to the Democratic committees. A business associate charged as Jinnah's co-conspirator has entered a guilty plea and is scheduled to be sentenced in Los Angeles next week. A federal law enforcement source said prosecutors had not dealt with the political committees in conducting their investigation and had no evidence that the committees knew the contributions were illegal.

As you should know, Hillary's campaign denied sending this, and Matt Drudge basically confirmed that the photo was "circulated" from one Hillary staffer to another Hillary staffer, with a note saying something like "Imagine if this was Hillary, how bad the media response would be." For those of you who don't know, the racebaiting in this campaign was started by Obama. http://www.tnr.com/politics/story.html?id=aa0cd21b-0ff2-4329-88a1-69c6c268b304 Given that the Obama campaign's response to this "story" was essentially the same as its response to the initial media furor over HRC's alleged racism, which was prompted by an Obama campaign memo, it seems likely that Obama's campaign was the one that sent this to Drudge. But I guess that doesn't fit into the media narrative of Obama (the libertarian who broke all his campaign promises from 2004) as the uniter, and Hillary as the dirty politician. Return to your bleating, sheep. Continue berating Hillary. Well guess you guys are all idiots, for believing the Obama campaign.

Once you begin to play politics of race,in my view you have lost it.We all need and indeed compliment each other especially in this era. This photograph merely reminds me how hil still harbours this strong slave trade genre against the black race.I thought this was over.
