MSNBC:

Sen. Hillary Clinton has declined to return $170,000 in campaign contributions from individuals at a company accused of widespread sexual harassment, and whose CEO is a disbarred lawyer with a criminal record, federal campaign records show.

The federal government has accused the Illinois management consulting firm, International Profit Associates, or IPA, of a brazen pattern of sexual harassment including "sexual assaults," "degrading anti-female language" and "obscene suggestions."

This shouldn't surprise anybody - Hillary surrounds herself with people like Mark Penn who have no ethics and only care about money. Hillary obviously doesn't care about anything else either. The only time she doesn't accept the cash is when it comes out in an embarrassing story (like this one) and she's forced to give the money back to get the dirty donors. She had to give back $800,000 of disgraced Clinton donor Norman Hsu (who is now serving a 3 year sentence). How many Clinton donors are felons and/or in jail?? Clinton peddles influence just like Bush. These are the kind of corrupt corporate ties this country is trying to get away from...

This is just part of the MSNBC campaign for Obama and against Clinton. It's so obvious. The telling part of this is that the company is accused and not convicted. I am sure that the money BO got from Renzi and the Coal and Nuke people was clean money too -- as well as other monies he's gotten (50% of his money raised is from big donations, not the $109 average he mislead about)

I heard HRC forgot to put the cap on the toothpaste, didn't turn off the lights in the kitchen and once put a glass bottle in a regular trash container. I am sure there are lots of other bullshit items like this that HuffPo will put out before the Convention.

But if BO gets the nomination I guess it will be BO 24/7 on Huff Po. But will they investigate and vet him, no.

I agree. Let's take a look at every single corporate doner of all the candidates, then, if this is fair.

You still haven't responded to the substance of the post.

Give me a link where you are getting this information. I want to see it for myself. I notice that when something like this comes up, all of a sudden its the media bias again. But when Rezko comes up, everyone says its about time. Weird how that works out huh? How do people still support someone who lost 20+ points in the polls and is now playing catchup? I'm sorry, my future president can actually manage a campaign - not squander it.

When Obama gives his house back to Rezko....

Obama Blinders available at each speaking engagement.
Please take a few for your friends.

Hillary can hold her own anywhere. She can be be warm and she can be funny.
A great mom, an accomplished woman and an equal partner. She's honest as the day is long.
Hillary is presidential material. She is a good orator with a solid speaking tempo. She is beautifully literate. So unlike our current pres. And too, not soaring empty rhetoric, but nugget filled statements loaded with detail.

Hillary's generation of women have paved the way for women here in the US,
but even more so for the women of the world.
Become a WOMANIST. It's a good thing.
Go Hillary.
She's a fighter and she won't give up. EVER.

You mean loaded with B.S., don't you. We all know she's a figher, that's why the health care plan she introduced l4 years ago has come to pass and we finally have universal health care!

A great mom, I'm sure....Barack appears to be a great father, an accomplished man and an equal partner with his extraordinary wife. What you don't realize is that Bill and Hillary lust after power....that has always been their first love....they certainly don't lust after each other. I'n not going to support Hillary because she is a woman, I'm supporting the best person for the job. She talks a good loaded with details means absolutely nothing, because she does not have the diplomatic skills in playing well with others.

So much for being a feminist. So much for showing integrity. The Clintons will take money from anyone, unless they are forced to give it back through public outrage or bad publicity.

accused not convicted. GWB has still allowed us that little bit of our Constitution. But with GWB it's guilty and not charged.

There are so many times that the Clintons have accepted dirty and tainted money, that to list them all would be too much trouble. If you had studied the Clinton's campaign contributions, you wouldn't be throwing Bush into the mix. Bush has nothing to do with this, and nobody is accusing Clinton of a crime. It's a lack of integrity that's the problem.
