From the interesting overseas article below, (providing us info not to be found anywhere in the American Slick Willie loving press mind you) shows how the Clinton's have turned from hicksville governor and wife making less a year than most average salaried americans (30,000 yrly) to multi millionaire lib huckster/fundraising former president and senatoress presidential-ess wannabe..Maybe you remember how Bill once described his life before becoming Governor of Arkansas:
President Bill Clinton shares part of his past with a bunch of General Motors employees: "When I was a younger man and had a life, I owned an El Camino pickup in the '70s. It was a real sort of Southern deal. I had Astroturf in the back. You don't want to know why, but I did."Thats our Bill.....
Anyways, thanks to the stupidity of the loyal followers of this family they have parlayed his scum filled presidency into a substantial growing fortune as professional fundraisers, sucking in money like a hoover vacuum on steroids.. all coming from dumb but rich hollywood type worshippers to go towards Hillary's perpetual, "maybe, wink wink" candidacy for President.
But, to their credit, it seems as if the left is finally wising up to these money games as the latest Willie & Hill fundraiser turned into a face saving humiliating fire sale of sorts. Hence the hush hush of the US media who would never do anything to embarrass their lunatic fringe icons.
Americans snub invitation to pay $500,000 for Clinton birthday party | the Daily Mail: "When America's liberal elite were offered the chance to pay up to $500,000 each (about £260,000) to attend Bill Clinton's 60th birthday extravaganza tonight - with the added promise of a private Rolling Stones concert - a packed house was expected.Pretty damn funny if you asked me.
Wife Hillary and daughter Chelsea sent out about 10,000 invitations to Hollywood tycoons, movie stars, captains of industry and Wall Street - with all proceeds to go to the former President's charitable foundation.
Those who pledged the top price were promised the 'Birthday Chair Package', with the best seating for the concert as well as a chance to have photographs taken with Mr Clinton during a round of golf and a three-day series of cocktail, brunch and dinner parties.
With the looming possibility of Bill and his long-suffering wife and daughter finding themselves amid a sea of empty chairs at the 2,900-seat Manhattan venue, tickets then went on sale to the public for as little as $1,710 (£900).
And there is a danger that the Clintons' plans may end in a total fiasco, after the Stones cancelled Friday's show in Atlantic City when Mick Jagger complained of a sore throat and was ordered to rest by a doctor.SUCKERS..... Taken in by the Slickster again.
The supergroup has flown to New York in preparation for today's concert but an insider said it was too soon to know whether Jagger will be fit enough to perform.
A friend of the Clintons said last night: "It is all highly embarrassing for Bill and Hillary. When they created the idea, they thought it would go like wildfire. What's not going to please some who did come up with $500,000 is finding regular Stones fans there who got last-minute tickets on the internet.
A spokesman for the Stones insisted it was always intended that the public could attend and that some seats were left unsold because director Martin Scorsese is making a film about the band. He said: "Scorsese didn't know where he wanted to put the cameras. It wasn't until that was decided that the unfilled seats could be put on sale."
The minimum price, with inferior concert seats and no brunch, was set at $60,000 (£31,000). But with many rich Democrats sending their regrets, The Mail on Sunday can reveal that last Wednesday the Clintons drastically slashed prices to $12,500 (£6,500) for one reception and the concert, or $5,000 (£2,600) for just the Stones."
The Clintons and fundraisers have reached the lowest level of political shamelessness that tops even many of the similar type fundraising done by the republicans, except the Clintons will stick this money right in their pockets after Hill' decides she'd rather bask in Monaco for the summer than waste all that wealth on a sure to fail presidential bid.
