http://www.falwell.com/?a=p&content=1103229198It’s really a good thing that Sen. Hillary Clinton is a Democrat. If she were a Republican, she would have been the topic of dire front-page headlines in The New York Times and at the forefront of CBS Evening News broadcasts over the past several days with her name being connected with a shadowy political fundraising imbroglio.
What’s that? You say you weren’t aware that Mrs. Clinton was at the center of a significant controversy? No surprise there. Like I said, she’s a Democrat. So her story has been buried or ignored by the big media bosses.
Let me tell you about what is going on: In 2000, a big-event fundraiser for Sen. Clinton was conducted in Los Angeles with a bunch of trendy Hollywood stars attending. A man by the name of David Rosen, who was at that time Mrs. Clinton’s chief fundraiser, organized the event. He is now charged with falsifying federal campaign filings by significantly underreporting the actual cost of this event. He claimed it cost $400,000, while the actual cost may have been closer to $1 million. By underreporting the cost, Mr. Rosen set aside funds that could subsidize Mrs. Clinton’s Senate campaign. He is going to trial over this fundraising event.
Mrs. Clinton says she knows nothing of the alleged sham. And since she is a “rising star” of the Democrat Party and a woman who shares symbiotic sisterhood with the so-called mainstream media — in other words, she’s dutifully pro-choice and anti-Bush — she gets a pass from the networks, the Times and Times wannabes.
