Voice: Hello, This is the Hillary Clinton for President Campaign.
Before you vote on Saturday, you should know that John Edwards voted for permanent trade relations with China. That’s right, John Edwards voted for the bill that cost thousands of jobs. Like the ones in the textile mills he talks about so much down here.
You should also know that John Edwards made nearly a half a million dollars working for a Wall Street investment fund. A fund that’s been profiting on foreclosing on the homes of families; including 100 homes right here in South Carolina. That’s according to The State newspaper. Here in South Carolina, Edwards says he’s one of us, but up on Wall Street he was just another one of them.
Can you trust John Edwards? This call is paid for by the Hillary Clinton for President Campaign.

Hillary’s Rueful Return To Chinagate
http://www.hillaryproject.com/index.php?/en/story-details/hillarys_ruefull_return_to_chinagate/
Chinese bagman John Huang — a longtime friend of the Clintons dating back to Little Rock — laundered the dough through monks and nuns who had taken an oath of poverty.
Huang was convicted of raising more than $1 million in illegal contributions, mostly from people with close ties to Beijing. His partner in crime, Maria Hsia — also an agent of the Chinese government — raised some $117,000 in illegally laundered donations for the Clinton-Gore campaign.
Is the mysterious Mr. Hsu the Clintons' new John Huang? It's a serious question, and one with national security implications.
While Chinese funny money was pouring into Clinton coffers, the Clinton administration oversaw the wholesale transfer of advanced missile, nuclear and supercomputer techology to China.
Meantime, Clinton liberalized trade policy with China, something for which Hsu himself has lobbied.
It seems like the same M.O. — rich Chinese donating through cut-outs and conduits to steer the Clintons and Democrats toward favorable Beijing policies. Hsu also has donated heavily to other Democrats who last decade were on the receiving end of Chinese funny money — namely Sens. John Kerry, Ted Kennedy and Dianne "Chi-Fi" Feinstein.
Hillary wasn't measuring drapes in the White House when all this Chinese funny business was going on. She personally took checks from Chinese bagman Johnny Chung when he visited the White House. Chung is another fundraiser convicted of laundering donations.
Last decade, the Clintons took millions in laundered foreign campaign donations, mostly from China. Many of the bagmen were convicted. In fact, the Chinagate investigation successfully prosecuted 25 outlaw fundraisers for Bill Clinton and Democrats. That haul came in spite of Janet Reno blocking investigators' efforts at the Justice Department.
Heading the probe in the Senate was one Fred Thompson. He was vilified by the Clintonites and their apologists in the media for conducting a witch hunt. Of course, he was right about the Chinese contributions all along.

WARD HARKAVY, VILLAGE VOICE 2000 - Twice in three days last week, Hillary Rodham Clinton basked in the adulation of cheering union . . . They would have dropped their forks if they had heard that Hillary served for six years on the board of the dreaded Wal-Mart, a union-busting behemoth. If they had learned the details of her friendship with Wal-Mart, they might have lost their lunches. . .
As she was leaving the dais, she ignored a reporter's question about Wal-Mart, and she ignored it again when she strode by reporters in the hotel lobby.
But there are questions. In 1986, when Hillary was first lady of Arkansas, she was put on the board of Wal-Mart. Officials at the time said she wasn't filling a vacancy. In May 1992, as Hubby's presidential campaign heated up, she resigned from the board of Wal-Mart. Company officials said at the time that they weren't going to fill her vacancy.
So what the hell was she doing on the Wal-Mart board? According to press accounts at the time, she was a show horse at the company's annual meetings when founder Sam Walton bused in cheering throngs to celebrate his non-union empire, which is headquartered in Arkansas, one of the country's poorest states. According to published reports, she was placed in charge of the company's "green" program to protect the environment.
But nobody got greener than Sam Walton and his family. For several years in the '80s, he was judged the richest man in America by Forbes magazine; his fortune zoomed into the billions until he split it up among relatives. It's no surprise that Hillary is a strong supporter of free trade with China. Wal-Mart, despite its "Buy American" advertising campaign, is the single largest U.S. importer, and half of its imports come from China.
