T: Is for Tax Returns Speaking Volumes!

I had already decided to write this column when I saw this commercial of Hillary Clinton begging for money claiming she was broke. Though it has made me unpopular, I have never liked the Clinton's. I mean these are people who destroyed many lives. So why does no one remember and why would anyone want her running a country? After all Whitewater began with the real estate dealings of Bill and Hillary Clinton and their associates. This morning I awoke to CNN and Sen. Barack Obama asking supporters to help Hillary, settle her debt. Clinton has amassed a campaign debt of about $22 million, but $12 of that million is money she lent herself. The reason the call for help is if this money is not paid back by the convention in August Hillary will have to absorb what is to be believed as the largest presidential campaign debt in history. Besides the $11.4 million of her own money she had about $9.5 million in unpaid bills to vendors. Her largest outstanding bills are to her closest advisers. One example is $5 million to the firm of Mark Penn. All I can think is it sucks to be you or anyone else who puts your trust and faith in someone who has a history of showing little disregard for others. Hillary's campaign must liquidate more than $23 million in contributions set aside for the general election. To do that by law they must return it to donors or designate it for her Senate re-election campaign in 2012, provided she obtains permission to do so. Is she uses it to pay off her debt, categorically that action would be illegal.















What I have yet to understand as millions are losing their homes due to foreclosure. As others lose them to hardship due to weather and unforeseen circumstances. And yet others are struggling to feed their families due to the rising costs of gas and food. HOW DARE YOU! You made in excess of $109.2 million in income over the last seven years. Bill alone made $82 million from speeches and books. You should pay for your dreams. You wanted to be President, not those who are struggling just to stay afloat.

Here are some highlights of the Clinton's tax returns. You don't have to dig hard to be truly disgusted at the inhumanity of it all. Don't believe me, read, research and get mad that they have used their power and position.

Bill's income starts at $50,000 with assets in The Bank of Ireland, matching it. Hey, Hillary is this what you meant by "I helped to bring peace to Northern Ireland ?" Next, stocks held in Exxon Oil and BP Amoco --but hey, somebody other than Dick Cheney should make a profit off America's rape at the pump, so it might as well be the Clintons, to the tune of $250,000. The Clintons also like pharmaceutical companies--GlaxoSmithKline ($100,000), Pfizer ($250,000), Lilly, Eli & Company ($100,000) and United Health Group ($250,000). It's like playing monopoly and owning all of the blue properties. Wal-Mart stock (250,000), Yahoo! ($250,000). The Clinton Family Foundation ( a non-profit charity) well now I understand the charitable deductions. Mr. Murdoch's NewsCorp ($250,000) holdings help explain the recent pro-Hillary media spin. The Yucaipa Global Partnership Fund (suspiciously listed at $1001) Clinton was an adviser to Burkle’s company, Yucaipa, from 2002 to 2007. His substantial paycheck helped pay legal bills left over from his presidency. A profit-sharing provision in the deal kicked in earning Clinton millions. Now he wants out of Yucaipa Global Partnership Fund, in which he and Burkle are partners along with an entity linked to Dubai’s ruler, Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid al-Maktoum. This relationship with billionaire Ron Burkle and Dubai, has Bill earning a $20 million payout. Yucaipa ties could prove embarrassing as Yucaipa funds are registered in the Cayman Islands. What are you trying to hide?

Everything I have stated here is easily found. These tax returns have highly questionable information
that should be looked into and that is a F.A.C.T.
