Why are the press and the so called fare minded left ignoring Hillary Clinton's former finance director, David Rosen?His trial for clear and deliberate violation of federal campaign finance laws is about to start and no a peep from anyone in the MSM about it. You can bet your first born if this were a conservative or repub it would be front page for months.
During Hillaries 2000 campaign the afore mentioned finance director understating the cost of an August 2000 fundraiser in Hollywood attended by the likes of Cher and Melissa Etheridge.He reported the event as only costing 400,000 when he knew it was much more.He did this because under the law then, if he under reported it that freed up more money for actual campaigning.
One contributer told the FBI that Hillaries campaign only reported his 1.1 million donation as 400k.The question everyone WOULD be asking if this were a repub is; DID hillary know this was going on. Well, in a money strapped campaign that suddenly got a bust at the last minute money wise, its a safe bet she had Some idea something was going on.This looks true especially since hillaries challenger got here to swear to avoid soft money.
Now add to this the fact that Ted Kennedy's brother-in-law, Ray Reggie, has been outed as an FBI informant working inside and tapping conversations with Dem leaders and it should get more press.
But wait, it gets even better. Seems that Louisiana's Times-Picayune has gotten a partial transcript of Reggie's taped conversation with Rosen over dinner in Chicago.It seems to confirm that Hillaries former finance guru knowingly fudged the books.
Quote:
The chitchat ranges from speculation that a wealthy Clinton donor was using cocaine to lusty remarks by Rosen about the donor's young daughter. Rosen does not hesitate to disparage President Clinton, noting that he began calling regularly -- once a week -- after Rosen went to work for Hillary Clinton. "Go screw yourself , Mr. President," Rosen says, pretending to pick up one such call.
The salaciousness reaches its pinnacle with Rosen's rambling anecdote about a fat cat Clinton donor who said after a night of partying that he sent prostitutes to the hotel rooms of two top Clinton loyalists.
"So the next day, (one of the loyalists) calls (the donor) from the golf course with Clinton," Rosen told Reggie. "Clinton gets on the phone, he goes, I just wanna tell you something. . . . The day I'm outta office, I'm going out with you."

Also, he seems typical of elitist snobs;
Quote:
Rosen added that he'll never work for Gore again. The former vice president, whom he thought he knew well, failed to recognize him at an event.
"I won't cross the street for that guy," he said. "I was willing to get talked back into another round with his a$%. And I went to an event, and he was there. And I'm with him one-on-one a hundred times. At least. And he thought I was the valet parker."
