Don’t Worry … Clinton’s A Liberal So It’s Ok

J.J. Jackson* | February 28, 2007

Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton and former president Bill Clinton have operated a family charity since 2001, but she failed to list it on annual Senate financial disclosure reports on five occasions.

The Ethics in Government Act requires members of Congress to disclose positions they hold with any outside entity, including nonprofit foundations. Hillary Clinton has served her family foundation as treasurer and secretary since it was established in December 2001, but none of her ethics reports since then have disclosed that fact.

The foundation has enabled the Clintons to write off more than $5 million from their taxable personal income since 2001, while dispensing $1.25 million in charitable contributions over that period.

Clinton’s spokesman said her failure to report the existence of the family foundation and the senator’s position as an officer was an oversight.

Yes, it’s always so simple and compact when any favorite son or daughter of the liberal left is involved. But anyone else that forgets to put down required information is lambasted!

I’m not saying it’s not an oversight, but it seems like a pretty BIG oversight to not include your own charity on the forms. It’s not like it was some odd ball organization that could have been forgotten.

And this woman wants to be Commander in Chief? Heck she can’t even remember what organizations she holds offices in.
