Repentance after you’ve been caught is no repentance. It seems Norman Hsu is the new Jack Abramoff.

“Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton‚Äôs campaign said yesterday that it would give to charity $23,000 it had received from a prominent Democratic donor, and review thousands of dollars more that he had raised, after learning that the authorities in California had a warrant for his arrest stemming from a 1991 fraud case.

The donor, Norman Hsu, has raised hundreds of thousands of dollars for Democratic candidates since 2003, and was slated to be co-host next month for a Clinton gala featuring the entertainer Quincy Jones.

The event would not have been unusual for Mr. Hsu, a businessman from Hong Kong who moves in circles of power and influence, serving on the board of a university in New York and helping to bankroll Democratic campaigns.

But what was not widely known was that Mr. Hsu, who is in the apparel business in New York, has been considered a fugitive since he failed to show up in a San Mateo County courtroom about 15 years ago to be sentenced for his role in a scheme to defraud investors, according to the California attorney general’s office.

Mr. Hsu had pleaded no contest to one count of grand theft and was facing up to three years in prison.

The travails of Mr. Hsu have proved an embarrassment for the Clinton campaign, which has strived to project an image of rectitude in its fund-raising and to dispel any lingering shadows of past episodes of tainted contributions.

Already, Mrs. Clinton’s opponents were busy trying to rekindle remembrances of the 1996 Democratic fund-raising scandals, in which Asian moneymen were accused of funneling suspect donations into Democratic coffers as President Bill Clinton and Vice President Al Gore were running for re-election.

Some Clinton donors said yesterday that they did not expect the Hsu matter to hurt Mrs. Clinton unless a pattern of problematic fund-raising or compromised donors emerged, which would raise questions about the campaign‚Äôs vetting of donors. Mr. Hsu‚Äôs legal problems were first reported yesterday by The Los Angeles Times; The Wall Street Journal reported Tuesday about his bundling of questionable contributions.”

I’m sorry, but this isn’t good enough. Over the years the most consistent factor of the Clinton’s is that wherever there has been dirty campaign money “some how” he ended up in their coffers. Who could forget the unbelievably transparent 1996 campaign scandals where it will quite clear that the Clinton traded nuclear secrets for cash.

Via Via Judicial Watch:

“This (Hsu) isn‚Äôt the first big Clinton donor who is a fugitive from the law. A wealthy Pakistani businessman who funneled thousands of dollars in illegal contributions to her campaign actually appears on the Federal Bureau of Investigation‚Äôs most wanted list.

Abdul Rehman Jinnah lived in Southern California and fled the country after federal prosecutors charged him with conspiracy and illegal campaign contributions to various Democratic senators. Not surprisingly, Clinton and her fellow Democrats‚Äîincluding California Senator Barbara Boxer–said they had no idea that their lucrative donor was violating the law.”

“No idea” my butt! The left calls this all to do about nothing and ‘coincidences’ and other assorted nonsense. Where the FBI should be heading to is over to the Paw family of Daly City, California. They seem to be the key to unraveling much of what we read about Mr. Hsu over the last couple of days. It’s simple really, pull an IRS audit of the family returns, mix with a little bit of interrogation and threat of 10-25 year sentences and they’ll talk.

There is much more to this story and we’re going to keep on it.
