Another day, another Clinton campaign election law violation:
Guess who is coming to dinner in Dublin?
None other than former US president Bill Clinton, who is mingling with a host of Ireland’s elite at a fundraising bash on Saturday night.
The 1,600 euro (£1,145) a head dinner is in aid of his wife Hillary’s presidential campaign fund - and the places have been much coveted.
[…]
The paper said that some Irish people who were so desperate to attend the fundraiser have been seeking out US citizens through whom they can channel the $2,300 (1,600 euro) admission charge.
Federal election laws clearly state that not only is it illegal for these Irish people to be contributing (directly or indirectly) to the Clinton campaign…
The Federal Election Campaign Act (FECA) prohibits any foreign national from contributing, donating or spending funds in connection with any federal, state, or local election in the United States, either directly or indirectly.
…but it’s also illegal for the Clinton campaign to be soliciting such contributions as well:
It is also unlawful to help foreign nationals violate that ban or to solicit, receive or accept contributions or donations from them.
The potential punishment?
Persons who knowingly and willfully engage in these activities may be subject to fines and/or imprisonment.
But then again, these are Clintons we’re talking about. They can violate every law known to mankind and they’ll serve less time than Paris Hilton.

Let me just say that I am very disappointed in my people for contributing to the whore of Babylon’s campaign fund.

Ok now if this is against the law and they are not hiding this fact how the hell can they get away with it?

Rule number 1. The Clintons are always innocent.
Rule number 2. When in doubt, refer to Rule number 1.

No matter how outrageous they behave, the Left will never investigate them. Not because they are clintons, but because they are not Conservatives. Have you noticed how little news there has been covering all the investigations they have had since January? If we did that, there should would be some people questioning whether or not there was right-wing conspirancy…

Had he known those rules, Vince Foster might be alive today!
