Hillary’s Changing Her Name to Charity
February 27th, 2007 5:06 pm

Afterall, she already thinks she’s a tax-exempt entity…

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.

David Geffen was spot on when he said:

“Everybody in politics lies, but [the Clintons] do it with such ease it’s troubling.”

AJ Strata has much more on this shell game.
