109 MILLION in the bank and Hillary still stiffs her backers??

[workinclasszero]

WTH is up with that?

Its definitely not lack of funds!

I guess its just a bad character flaw then.

Maybe she justs like to see the little people twisting in the wind?

Must be all those years she spent on the Walmart board...

[JuniperLea]

1. I certainly hope you are one of those who criticised her...

For using her own money... giving herself a loan... cuz you can't have it both ways.

[workinclasszero]

7. Hey all I know is I have to pay my bills

every month or there will be hell to pay.

But I guess its different for "the man" eh?

[ampad]

12. LOL

It's different for Hillary because she gave sooo much to charity. As I said before I guess those vendors are considered charity as well. No bias from the Clinton supporters though, none at all. :eyes:

[Zachstar]

18. This is like most other Americans.

We pay our bills. Or stuff gets cut off and if we don't pay we get collection and then one day when we got bills piled up we might have to file for bankruptcy.

Instead Clintons sit on many millions and talk to us like they understand. They DON'T

They is no chance in hell they will ever risk bankruptcy. They never have to worry about getting sick and being a few days work or a single lost job away from bankruptcy.

They are not at risk of losing their house because some fucked up lending system.

[JuniperLea]

21. Do you hate all the rich?

Where's the hate for Obama?

:shrug:

[Zachstar]

31. Nope

And by the time Obama makes 109 million in 7 years, if his wife decides to run and tries to appeal to the working class. I will call her on it (That is unless over 50 percent went to donations which is completely acceptable)

[JuniperLea]

40. He's quite a bit younger than the Clintons, right?

He'll get there.

[charlie]

8. Sure, we can

She gave herself a loan... and vendors still weren't paid.

It was when news broke about Mrs. Clinton’s loan earlier this month that Mr. Semetis became positively alarmed and started calling the campaign almost every day. “The fact she’s lost 10 states in a row has increased the phone calls,” he said.

http://www.nytimes.com/2008/02/23/nyregion/23owe.html

He rendered service in December, she took out the loan early February, he filed suit late February. That's either deliberate neglect or poor management.

[JuniperLea]

14. Lucky you! You found something else to whine about!

So, there's a lawsuit... she is automatically guilty... good job.

:eyes:

[charlie]

16. Lol!

The suit just marks a timeline. Her crew ate Dec 15 and the caterer hadn't been paid by the end of February. Who knows if he has his money today? She's undeniably guilty of stiffing the guy for at least 2 1/2 months. Or does the space-time continuum work differently for Hillarynauts?

Back atcha, Mr/Ms Eyerolly.

[JuniperLea]

19. I'm not a Hillary supporter any more than I'm an Obama supporter...

I'm just happy to make fun of all y'all.

[charlie]

26. And you do it so well

Not.

Since we're springing gotcha surprises like they matter, I'm not bananas about Obama.

But she did take out a loan and spent it in directions other than her small-vendor debts, and for some reason you really don't like hearing that.

[Cha]

42. Yeah, I think you just let your stupid

sig line go to your head.

[anonymous171]

2. "Strong and Wrong" strikes again.

[thereismore]

3. If she has that kind of money why isn't she running more TV spots? Is she

saving her money for the last firewall - Puerto Rico?

[workinclasszero]

11. I think Hill and Bill would rather gamble with other peoples money

while theirs is safe in a swiss bank account.:evilgrin:

[SoFlaJet]

4. and she's also the scumbag

that tries to get people fired who don't support her-like Randi and Schuster before her. It doesn't GET any lower than that...the Clinton's truly are the new McCarthyism

[islandmkl]

5. old shyster axiom: "Screw all but six of 'em....

you gotta have pallbearers."


until you consider cremation...

[Cooley Hurd]

6. She paid almost $40mil in taxes, MINUS $10mil in charity...

...so, in all fairness to her, it's not $109mil, it's... um, $59mil.:D

[LisaM]

Divided over six years

I'm not saying it's not a lot of money - it is, but it's two wage earners, and it's split over six years. So I don't think she has $109 million "in the bank".

[quantass]

39. .

[islandmkl]

13. man, that's only half....

i can see why it would be hard to maintain ANY decent form of lifestyle with the pittance left after taxes....

[mainer]

9. not to defend her, but that's 109 million INCOME

not money in the bank, and it's over -- what, 7 years?

She paid 30+ million in taxes and gave 10 million to charity. We haven't seen the actual returns yet, but I'd assume there are business expenses, etc, that had to be deducted from that as well.

(ps: I'm an Obama supporter)

[aquarius dawning]

10. God damn the Clintons for being succesful and Democrats.

:sarcasm:

[tabatha]

17. yeah, stiffing poorer persons to whom she owes money is so

democratic

[aquarius dawning]

20. who has she stiffed?

[tabatha]

22. here

[MonkeyFunk]

24. He's been paid

and he's still supporting Clinton for President.

http://www.nhbr.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20080229/POLITICS01/465153421/-1/POLITICS

[tabatha]

27. many others have not

including medical insurance

[MonkeyFunk]

30. they will be

nobody's getting "stiffed".

[JuniperLea]

23. This is all based on what some caterer has said...

And the Obama camp takes as gospel.

[aquarius dawning]

25. not surprising. They'll sink to any level.

[tabatha]

28. So did you base the veracity of the sniper story

on what Clinton said?

[workinclasszero]

29. Hillary won't even pay for her staffs health insurance!

http://blogs.guardian.co.uk/usa/2008/04/hillarys_bills_piling_up.html

292, 000 is walking around money for Hillary but damned if shes gonna pay her workers health premiums!

Yeah she really feels the workers pain eh? LOL

[JuniperLea]

34. Do you know for a fact that Obama does?

Or is this just more spewing?

[workinclasszero]

35. We are talking about Hillary's failure to pay for her own staffs health insurance

Why do you want to keep changing the subject???:eyes:

[JuniperLea]

37. LOL!

I'm just making sure you are slamming Hillary properly!

[rainbow4321]

43. The "caterer" is on HRC's loooonnnnngggg IOU list

on the FEC website. Along with school districts, grocery stores, event planners, health insurance companies....the list goes on and on. The info is not from a single disgruntled vendor, it is from the financial information given to the FEC from HRC's **OWN campaign**.

At one point she owed $500,000 combined to just TWO companies (Aetna and Blue Cross) on her never ending list..meanwhile, Obama's **total debt** was about $600,000 and it was to a short list of companies, no schools/stores/small businesses.

Damn that FEC financial page, huh, Hillary?? 16 days and counting til you next IOU list is published and there won't be any of this "HRC is not releasing..." on that day.

[MS68]

15. If Obama becomes president

Check his income in 14 years (difference in his and Hillary's age). I guarantee you, the Obama's will have a similar income. He's a good speaker and he'll get paid well after the presidency (if he wins) to speak. I'm sure there will be some more books too that will do even better than his previous books, as EVERYBODY will know who he is.

If you're comparing the Clinton's income to the Obama's, I don't think you're comparing apples to apples.

I live in Fayetteville, AR. You can drive down the street and see the house they lived in when they taught at U of A. It looks like it's probably about 1400 sq. feet. It's cute, but nowhere's near grand.

[workinclasszero]

36. Heres a list of all the people Hillary has screwed while sitting on her 109 million dollars!

http://query.nictusa.com/cgi-bin/dcdev/forms/C00431569/328357/sd/12

LOL SUCKERS! Its fun to be the Queen, eh Hillary?

[quantass]

38. but..but....it must have been Obama's fault.

[intheozone]

41. Are you stupid, if they made $109 million over 6 years, they don't have it all

in the bank. Can you not see how much they paid in income taxes on those earnings? How about over living expenses, say like, paying approximately $12million in attys fees because the republicans didn't like you! Basically, you need really should consider the FACTS are not the BULLSHIT! Your post is BULLSHIT

[midnight armadillo]

44. Well , let's run the numbers

$109m in 6 years. $30m in taxes, $10m in charity. And according to you, $12m in legal fees.

Even with the $12m in legal fees, that's $57 million in 6 years take home. Or $13000 PER DAY. So, I'd guess they've got plenty in the bank...
