Well it wasn’t “China”,or the “Park”, but at least he’s back in jail:
“Fugitive political fundraiser Norman Hsu, who skipped out on San Mateo County authorities this week rather than face sentencing for a 1992 fraud conviction, was apprehended Thursday night by federal and local lawmen in Grand Junction, Colo.
Authorities said Hsu was taken into custody at St. Mary’s Hospital in Grand Junction at 7 p.m. local time. He had been on the lam for almost two days after failing to appear in a Redwood City courtroom Wednesday to surrender his passport.
Hsu was taken off a passenger train at the Grand Junction train station earlier in the day by paramedics who requested a backboard to move him, said Sgt. Lonnie Chavez with the Grand Junction Police Department.
Authorities received a request for medical assistance at the train station at about 11:15 a.m., but the exact nature of Hsu’s condition was unclear, Chavez said. Staff at St. Mary’s Hospital declined to comment.
FBI spokesman Joseph Schadler said Hsu will be returned to California on the 1992 conviction once released from the hospital.
Hsu’s attorney told state prosecutors that Hsu had been on a charter flight that arrived at Oakland International Airport at about 5:30 a.m. Wednesday and then dropped out of sight, said Gareth Lacy, a spokesman for the state attorney general’s office.”
Once Hsu is brought back to California he will now remain in jail – no bail – pending sentence on the 1991 charge. Still the feds are going to be visiting him with questions about his campaign financial dealings. Again, the question is simple. If the “Paws” and other funnel families didn’t have the cash to donate that they did donate then where did they get it?
Quite naturally that source is Hsu, which means he used these families to to get around campaign finance laws and as such broke those laws.
The logical next step would be to get him to identify the entire network of funnel families and where the money went. As you know this involves many more Democrats than Hillary, but she’s the only one with a track history of shady Chinese donors who is running for the leader of the free world.¬†¬† You know like democrats are fond of saying, “Connect the dots”?
Therefore there is a great emphasis on knowing and bringing to light the entirety of her campaign’s dealing with this thief. Let the screw turning begin.

2it’s good to be wrong regarding the ability of the clinton gang to bury it’s mistakes.
with hsu in custody this would seem to be the first time there is an opportunity for an in depth investigation into the relationship between the clinton gang and money from sources with an interest in having a rule by proxy in American politics.
it is likely to be a hard fight, with clinton appointed judges still infesting many positions in the judicial system and the MSM complicit in the efforts to spin and or bury this scandal.
there is also the problem of the republican tendency to falter on the brink of any victory…when it comes to addressing the criminal conduct of the dem party.
but even with these factors at play the hsu scandal is large and quite apparent.
it will be interesting to watch this as things
unfold.

3Hillary has even MORE problems this morning! This case is going to court TODAY:
http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=7007109937779036019&hl=en
Peter Paul v W J Clinton, Hillary Clinton, etc.
The video should shock everyone. We can’t have these people back in the White House. Hillary needs to answer for herself and not let her attack dogs loose on the media and those who are trying to tell the truth.

4Mac, better half and I has the discussion last night about how the Clinton’s have managed to be coated in Teflon for so long. Even the Teflon Don wound up in jail eventually.
Chinagate, the Lincoln bedroom, Monicagate, Tainted Blood, the many, many deaths associated with the Clinton machine, how the hell do they manage to remain untouched.
Talk to anyone from Arkansas and they will tell you that the Clinton’s were the most corrupt couple to ever occupy the governor’s mansion. Yet, the Clinton’s managed to walk into the White House, commit [what appears to be] crime after crime after crime and never be held responsible for it.
The slap on the hand for Sandy Berger who obviously was covering for Clinton. The blocking of the Hillary documents to the Clinton Presidential Library under executive priviledge? Excuse me, but when was Bill AND HILLARY elected to the presidency? Now the Hsu scandal.
I understand that the MSM considers the Clinton’s their darlings, but sooner or later even the left leaning MSM has to admit that cow chips are really crap.
Can anyone explain to me how such a corrupt duo can continue to do their dirty deeds over and over again and are never even touched?

5Capt Ed is right–the feds should NOT drop the federal flight charge:
“After fleeing across state lines, Hsu became a federal fugitive. However, according to the FBI, those federal charges will be dropped once he returns to California custody. They may want to reconsider that position; California has proven itself inept on two occasions with Hsu. The US Attorney for that region should consider keeping Hsu in federal custody while the state finishes its sentencing process. A federal judge will be much less likely to grant bail to a known bail-jumper than the San Mateo jurist who didn’t see a problem with it.
Besides, it’s just a matter of time before the feds will have their hooks into Hsu anyway. The Washington Post confirms today that the Department of Justice has an investigation underway to determine exactly how Hsu bundled those contributions If they find anything fishy about a postal carrier and his family donating $280,000 over three years to Democrats through a convicted con man, the three-year California stretch will just be the appetizer at Hsu’s next banquet.’

6I want to know where Hsu got his money. And I also want to know if anyone can keep this investigation out of Schumer’s greasy hands.
