Clintons stole $200k in furniture, china and artwork from White House

[easyt65]

Politifact took on the claim that the Clinton's stole $200k in furniture, china and artwork from White House when they left office.

They succeed is arguing that the $200k figure was too high, but they fail to make the case that the Clintons did NOT attempt to make off with a 'treasure' of items that did not beling to them. As in almost every Clinton scandal, their defense comes down to how 'it was all an honest mistake'.

Politifact attempts to argue that, IN THE END, it was NOT 'stealing' becauae after they got busted they returned a lot of it and was forced to pay for much of what they took.

Evidently, according to liberals, it's only stealing if you take it and get away with it. If you get caught and have to return it and/or pay for it then it's NOT stealing.

POLITIFACT:
"The Clintons returned about $48,000 in furniture, and they paid the government about $86,000 for other items. Any way you count it, the $200,000 figure is too high."

Politifact's final decision is that the Clintons did not steal from the WH, NOT based on the fact that they didn't do it - which they did - but based on the disputed AMOUNT of how much they stole.

Theft is the highest virtue for the liberal. Not only does it make yourself richer, it deprives the (superior) competition. Why would this be a problem for them?

 

[bodecea]

Just like they took the "W" keys off the keyboards, right?

Oh shit.You're whining about that again?

No Democrat cares if the Clinton's stole, lied, cheated, raped or murdered anyone, they dismiss it all. They are all hypocrites.

Actually the Clinton staff did do that.

"NY Times:
White House Vandalized In Transition, G.A.O. Finds
By ROBERT PEAR
Published: June 12, 2002


WASHINGTON, June 11— The General Accounting Office, an investigative arm of Congress, said today that ''damage, theft, vandalism and pranks did occur in the White House complex'' in the presidential transition from Bill Clinton to George W. Bush. The agency put the cost at $13,000 to $14,000, including $4,850 to replace computer keyboards, many with damaged or missing W keys.. Some of the damage, it said, was clearly intentional."

The assorted afro americans that Barry Hussaine "Obama" let in there, who knows what stuff will be stolen before The Donald has a team of professional fumigators clear it of the stench.

This sentence from your post is not contained within your link. It is a lie added by you.

Why do right wingers lie about everything?

Slick willy = White trash child molester/rapist...

 

[BluesLegend]

Look I don't say liberals are FILTH to be mean, its stating the obvious. These people will lie, cheat, spin, and apparently steal and destroy public property they have no sense of right and wrong.

"Politifact took on the claim that the Clinton's stole $200k in furniture, china and artwork from White House when they left office."

BD, do you even understand what that sentence means? By your response it is obvious that you don't.

An accusation was made claiming the above. 'Took on' means Politifact looked into whether it was true or not...which is what the whole article the link connects to is all about. So you have a problem with my pointing out Politifact assessed the claim and wrote the article....which is supported by the link?

REALLY?

You then try to claim I lied when I posted Politifact's coclussion. Politifact pointed out how the Clintons had to RETURN much of what they had taken and PAY FOR MUCH OF WHAT THEY DID NOT RETURN...but found the amout taken by the Clintons did not total the $200k the initial accusation claimed.

So again, what's your problem? I know this shite about your beloved candidate is embarasding, negative, and damaging to whatever credibility / image she has left, but don't attack me for it. Blame Politifact. Better yet, put the blame where it belongs - on THE CLINTONS!

 

[Moonglow]

The House Committee on Government Reform looked into the fracas over the Clintons’ gifts. While its report never accused the former first family of criminal wrongdoing, it noted shortcomings in how gifts were processed, saying there was no independent assessment of gifts and that some had likely been undervalued.

The Reagan's had to pay back about 1 million..

 

[Moonglow]

So technically no, they didn't steal......Just like Nancy Reagan didn't steal all those designer dresses..

 

[easyt65]

So its not stealimg as long as you're not the only one doing it?

 

[NYcarbineer]

The OP posts a lie in the thread title, and then proceeds to prove it's a lie in the first post.

WTF is your point?

 

[easyt65]

The Thread Title was the exact wording of the link on the Drudgereport that takes you to the article, so your accusation that I lied in the title thread is a lie.

The article itself then goes on to prove / tell how the Clintons stole approx $125k - not $200k - from the WH, which they either were forced to return or eventually paid for.

My point is the Clintons are a bunch of theiving Arkansas Hillbillies that belong in jail rather than back in the WH.
