Clintons Finally Release Their Tax Returns!
« on: April 04, 2008, 08:52:08 PM »
$109 Million in income over the past 7 years???

Does that sound appropriate?   It works out to about $1.3 Million a month.  Or does that much money seem a bit fishy to you??

Their last public return that they had previously released was for the year 2000, when they only made $413,000, or about $34,400 a month. 

Here is a link to details about their tax returns:

The news this evening broke it down. they got it in 3 large chunks. The books each wrote got about half of it and billybob got almost 51 mill from speeches. That's some real expensive BS there.

"Appropriate"?  Is this Soviet Union?  There's a lot of money to be made in speaking engagements, investments, etc.  And did you notice that little real estate boom in that period?

Glok sounds like a real socialist.  He has some real issues with what companies and individuals make in income and profits.

Why would it not be appropriate? he's not the president anymore.

If you want to ask what isn't appropriate.. why not look at all the money Cheney and Bush have made since they have been in office.


This is from 2006...

President Bush and his wife, Laura, had assets valued between $7.2 million and $20.9 million last year, up from as much as $18.1 million a year earlier, annual disclosure forms released last night showed.


Vice President Cheney disclosed a portfolio worth as much as $94.6 million in 2005.

Something fun to do would be to find out who the first president was to take money from speech's/endorsements.

Cheney has actually held real world jobs, however.

You forget, though, what Jesus has said about being wealthy.

I have seen more info now in the press, and it looks like the Clintons have been very responsible lately, and have been generous to charities.   Last year they earned $20.5 Million, and paid $5.1 Million in Federal Income Taxes alone.  And they gave over $3 Million to Charity last year.

However, of the total $109 Million, only $10.2 Million has been put into this Foundation that they formed for donating to Charities.   And only half of that ten million has been spent so far, with most of that being the $3 Million that they gave away last year.

It would seem like they suddenly became much more charitable people, now that Hillary has been running for the Presidency.   Perhaps I am being too cynical here, though.

Maybe the Clintons will be able to enter heaven after all.   President Bush, though, may very well be damned.  Although I do remember him giving $10,000 to victims of that huge Tsunami back in 2005.   And he has called upon all Americans to donate 4,000 hours during their lifetime to working for the public good.   Whether it is in a public program like the Peace Corps, or for a private charity.   God will have to weigh all of these good deeds, with all of his screw-ups.

He just made a trip to numerous nations in the Middle East, and spoke to the leaders of several key nations.

This was covered extensively in the news for several days, so I am surprised that you did not hear about it.

Here he is with the President of Afghanistan:




And here he is with the Prime Minister of Israel:
