A Quid Pro Quo?

The Washington Times reports on a story I linked earlier. In the story in the Washington Times, they report:

"A bankruptcy trustee for a carnival company whose owners received a pardon from President Clinton is seeking to garnish the bank accounts of Mr. Clinton's brother-in-law to recoup more than $100,000 in loans.

Anthony D. Rodham, one of Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton's two brothers, got the loans from United Shows of America Inc. after its owners obtained the presidential pardon in March 2000 over the objections of the Justice Department."

Captain's Quarters is calling it a quid pro quo and I think correctly so. Hillary Clinton's brother, got several loans from a company whose owners got pardoned for bank fraud by her husband before leaving office and Mr. Rodham never made payments on them.

Captain Ed then goes on to say, "The President overruled his Department of Justice and provided presidential pardons for two people who robbed banks and their depositors through fraud, and two months later the same two people started sending money to the President's brother-in-law, laundered through their company as "loans" without ever seeking repayment."

This should be investigated and Hillary will need to provide some answers on this and could become another embarrassment she will have to overcome if she seeks her party's nomination for the Presidency.
