Isn't It Rich?

There's a truly shocking piece in today's New York Post about the ongoing connection between Hillary and Bill Clinton and the friends and family of the late international fugitive from justice Marc Rich.  Rich had fled the USA in the 1980's when the US Attorney in New York, Rudy Giuliani was about to get him indicted for actions such as trading in oil with Iran while the Iranians were holding Americans hostage at the US embassy and also selling oil to the apartheid regime in South Africa in violation of international sanctions.  On his last day in office, Bill Clinton pardoned Rich.  It was widely perceived at the time, that the pardon was in exchange for massive financial payments to the Clintons by Rich's wife and business associates, although there were no criminal charges brought.  That's old news.  It was just another slimy action taken by the Clintons in exchange for big bucks.

What is really surprising in today's article is the long list of payments made to the Clintons since that time by Rich's family and associates.  Many of these payments have come from others who have had substantial problems with the law.  Hillary and her campaign, however, have taken the cash from these questionable sources and never looked back.

If one were looking for further proof of just how low Hillary Clinton and her campaign will sink to raise cash, this is it.  The linked article in the Post is well worth reading, and I suggest that you do so.
