1. What an interesting set of names
Royal Saudi Family
Walmart
Numerous Corps and such

What a bunch of phony hypocritical losers they are. Well Hillary never exactly said that they are "against" private industry; I should not be surprised.

3. Vin Gupta's crooked.
Stole money from his company and gave it to the Clintons

http://www.forbes.com/feeds/ap/2007/12/26/ap4475174.html

"The shareholder lawsuit claims the company misspent millions, some of it on Bill and Hillary Clinton. The suit questions why infoUSA (nasdaq: IUSA - news - people ) founder Vin Gupta used private corporate jets to fly the Clintons on business, personal and campaign trips, why Gupta gave Bill Clinton a $3.3 million consulting contract and why the company paid for extravagant luxuries Gupta enjoyed."

12. so someone in this bunch is already under SEC investigation?
There's the Nebraska data processing company InfoUSA, whose CEO, Vin Gupta, used private corporate jets to fly the Clintons on business, personal, and campaign trips, gave Bill Clinton a $3.3 million consulting contract, and is now being investigated by the Securities and Exchange Commission for allegedly diverting company money to his own personal uses.

What's really interesting is we now have even more motive for the Clintons to be drowning out Obama with Rezco ...

This is such incredible bullshit!

13. And more >
http://www.nytimes.com/2007/12/20/us/politics/20clinton.html?pagewanted=1&_r=1

Over the last decade, former President Bill Clinton has raised more than $500 million for his foundation, allowing him to build a glass-and-steel presidential library in Little Rock, Ark., and burnish his image as an impresario of global philanthropy. The foundation has closely guarded the identities of its donors — including one who gave $31.3 million last year.

14. Wal-Mart, The Walton Family Foundation and Alice Walton....it's all Wal-Mart.
Looks like the Clinton Library was built by oil and cheap Chinese imports.
