As the Hsu scandal grows so does the accountability for Hillary Clinton to come clean.
“September 17, 2007 — Members of Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton’s campaign staff got a nice payoff last year for their work to get her re-elected – a trip to Las Vegas funded by her fugitive former fund-raiser.
Among the Sin City guests of disgraced former fund-raiser Norman Hsu was Patti Solis Doyle, one of Clinton’s most trusted advisers who now runs the senator’s presidential campaign.
According to The Los Angeles Times, Hsu – who raised more than $850,000 for Clinton before being jailed last month on charges related to an investment scheme – treated the senator’s campaign staff to several days at Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas, complete with free show tickets and dinners at posh restaurants.
Doyle was accompanied by two junior staffers and a New York-based fund-raiser, the report said.
In April 2006, Hsu provided a hotel stay in Las Vegas for two other campaign workers.Doyle also received a coveted and pricey designer handbag from the disgraced moneyman, the newspaper said. But she returned it.
The red-faced Clinton camp insists there was nothing illegal about the trip, according to the article, and stressed that Hsu never received any legislative favors in return for his generosity.”
Well we’re sorry, we just don’t believe you. The DOJ investigation should be increasing in the coming weeks was more and more of these “convenient connections” are uncovered.

1The DOJ investigation *should* be increasing in the coming weeks…
*Should* meaning they ought to be (as in, “That’s what I’d do if I was DOJ”), or *should* meaning you have inside info that they *will* be.

…..
Does that include the little matter of legislation that Hillary promoted that benefitted the “New School” on which Norman Hsu sat as a trustee to the tune of $1 or 2 Mil? How many other of these “non-quid pro quos” are out there?
And while I am at it, Hillary…the next time you call a honorable military commander a liar, have the guts to look him in the face while doing it!!! You are a miserable failure as a Senator, and would be a disasterous Commander-in-Chief!!
Go away!

3Sorry to disappoint all you guys but it ain’t going to happen. The MS media is already obsessing with the latest OJ scandal which is all we see and hear 24/7. Isn’t that what diverted attention from Bill’s treasonist sale of our military secrets and hardware to the Chicoms? By the time OJ and Scott Peterson were out of the news the sell out to China was old news and nobody bothered to bring it up again. It will happen again. Hillary’s fiancial scandals will be swept under the rug too. The Clintonistas have their game plans down pat. They cover their As the same way every time they get caught. And with an impotent Justice Dept don’t expect any action on anything unless it is to pile on when a Rep. is accused of something.

4So that means we should just give up and let the Clintons take over! I don’t think so!!! Geez…if we don’t do something…it will happen for sure!
It is up to us to KEEP this in the news and not let up for a minute.

5The first OJ trial was the Clinton’s playing the race card against Colin Powell who was contemplating running against BC in 96. The poles showed CP would have beaten BC like a red headed step child.
You might recall Screwy Louie Farakan organized his Million Man March during the trial. They drug the trial out to get a verdict as close to the MMM as possible, then the Clinton’s had a call in campaign to talk radio and C-span after the verdict with the same talking point: “When blacks have to choose between doing what is right and what is black, they will always choose black.” Powell didn’t run.
