"Headache, in fact, was the code name given Roger by the Secret Service during President Clinton’s two terms."

A parenthetical in a NYT article titled "Roger Clinton Is Wary, Chatty and Still Occasionally Attracting Attention."
His own lawyer said last year that Roger Clinton had no money. Even the $857,000 house he lives in was provided by Bill Clinton, bought using a limited liability company at a time when Roger Clinton owed more than $100,000 in back taxes, according to interviews and public records.

More recently, Roger Clinton parlayed his family ties into a consulting arrangement with a group of builders hoping to sell houses in Haiti... “I paid Roger $100,000,” [some businessman] said. “Basically, he promised to get us a contract through the Clinton Foundation for a project over there. What he was really trying to do was sell the influence of his brother.”...

He said his family connections work against him “seven out of 10 times,” and he cited the Haiti project as an example. He suggested that “advisers and lawyers” around the former president had kept it from being approved, even though “Big Brother loved it. You had all this government grant money, and all this money Bill was raising from around the world for reconstruction,” he said. “But we just couldn’t make it happen. It’s like, come on, man, can’t you just throw me a bone?”

Ann don't forget Hillary's brother. Elect Hillary and get this gang of grifters back in the saddle. Now speaking of that foundation imagine if the IRS were to for once actually do it's job........

Does America really want a restoration of this criminal gang? For crying out loud, Dems, just nominate Sanders. Lance this boil on the ass of the Republic!

I'm at a point where no tax-evading, fraudulent shenanigans by Bill Clinton would surprise me any more--or any involvement of his less-smooth, equally criminal and spectacularly incompetent wife. Just think of the fun they could get into during their final spin in the White House.

Dems--they are not entitled to your nomination. This is your chance to at least save a bit of dignity and turn these people down. You owe them nothing.

Rand is responsible for Ron. Jeb is responsible for George W.

But Hillary is in no way responsible for her family members. Except for whatever part of Chelsea someone might like.

MayBee said...

Oh! Hillary is also responsible for the good parts of Bill's presidency, but not his actual policies like DOMA.

Is that the infamous 1967 Ford Mustang convertible in Roger Clinton's driveway?

Watch here for the story behind the Clinton hump-mobile.

Ha! A grifter among the grifters.

They're also, somehow, responsible for Trump.

But Hillary and her brothers? Come on, she can't control THEM. They're only family with zero marketable talents

Or his disastrous record on terrorism.
Or his disastrous record on corporate accounting (Enron, Global Crossing, Tyco --- they were all started and known to be pretty dirty under Clinton)

Might as well close the thread as you have said it all.

3 simple rules:
1) No president should be allowed to leave the country.
2) Presidents, senators, ... wives of, mistresses of, ... should all pay a higher marginal tax rate for up to 30 years during and after office.
3) Income from charities, foundations, 501CXXXs, and government sources should raise your marginally tax rate exponentially.

We don't hear much about Obama's close relatives who are living in the US as illegal aliens in public housing in Massachusetts.

traditionalguy said...

Poor guy. As Chelsea's uncle he should at least get him a $600.000 a year news readers job on MSNBC. The Clinton Foundation is in trouble.

Brando said...

The "Clinton Foundation" will go down in history as the corrupt influence-peddling charity ripoff that it is.

These people know no shame. It is dangerous to give them power.

How many Republicans have criminal family members? I know Neil Bush was pretty bad with his S & L, but this type of shit doesn't seem super commom amongst the right.

mccullough said...

I think Bill Clinton's biological father was the one with the brains.

"How many Republicans have criminal family members? I know Neil Bush was pretty bad with his S & L, but this type of shit doesn't seem super commom amongst the right."

I'm not holding Roger Clinton's or the Mezvinskys' actions against Bill and Hillary, but rather the degree to which the latter were willing to use their influence to enable and enrich these crooks. You could be a decent person with bad seed relatives.

Brando said...

Also, what must it take to earn the nickname "Headache" when the Secret Service were also dealing with Hillary and Bill at the time? As I understand it, Bill was personable but annoyingly late and inconsiderate all the time, and Hillary was cold and nasty to everyone who served her. They must have had some interesting rejected nicknames for those two.

Goes good with a Nixonburger.

Is it true that Bill Clinton's Secret Service name was Blowjob?

Mark said...

Dinesh D'Souza was taken in by a pic of Hillary today with a Photoshopped Confederate flag behind her on Twitter. Had to tweet apology, lol

In his apology he suggests we instead `simply focus on those glasses and hairdo'

Republicans have some catching up to do in regards of dealing with women, as well as meaningful critique of Presidential candidates. If hair and glasses are what we should focus on, Hillary is going to win in a landslide.

Magnificent goods from you, man. I've consider your stuff previous to and you are just extremely excellent. I actually like what you've received right here, really like what you're stating and the way in which wherein you are saying it. You make it entertaining and you continue to care for to keep it sensible.

I never underestimate the ability of the GOP to blow a winnable election. It's not just that the Clintonistas and their fellow-travelers on the Left will try and portray every GOP attack on Hillary as a sexist assault on women; it's that the GOP will make it easy for them to do so.
