Peter Paul's possible illegal fund raiser for Hillary and Bill Clinton
Edited on Wed Apr-30-08 10:20 PM by Tim4319
Here is something I found out today, listening to Michael Baisden. Hillary Clinton's deposition will come after November 2nd. How ironic. Not sure if anyone here has ever talked about or knew about this but, it is very interesting. If this is old news, sorry for bringing up old stuff. I've just never seen this discussed before.

Apparently, this guy, Peter Paul, had huge fund raiser that was not on the "up-n-up"!

It was the largest event ever produced for a US President in Hollywood, it was the largest private concert produced closed to the public and it was the largest fundraising event ever produced for a Senator. It also became a federal crime when Hillary Clinton's campaign hid the source and amount of Peter Paul's $1.2 million plus expenditures for Hillary Clinton's campaign.

Paul, who has a past record including convictions for cocaine possession and a multimillion-dollar fraud scheme involving the Cuban government, says those donations were personal contributions, but that Clinton wanted to hide Paul's involvement because of his felony record. In August, Washington Post columnist Lloyd Grove reported "convicted felon Peter Paul -- who served three years in prison two decades ago after pleading guilty to cocaine possession and trying to swindle $ 8.7 million out of the Cuban government -- helped organize Saturday's star-glutted $ 1 million fundraising gala for Clinton's Senate race at businessman Ken Roberts's Brentwood estate. Paul, co-founder of Stan Lee Media, told us in a statement ... that he only produced the gala and hasn't given or raised money for the first lady's New York campaign."

Always a mistake to rely on 'Judicial Watch' press releases for facts, in any matter....
