So Why is HRC Buying rounds of beer, when she can't pay her bills?
I heard on the TeeVee last night, that HRC walked in to the (now infamous) bar, and announced that she was buying the guys there a round of beer.

WTF is she buying beer, when she hasn't paid the freaking SCHOOLS yet for leasing their places? And did she ever pay back the girlscouts for the cookies? That takes a lot of nerve. Only the scummiest of scum would do something like that.

Just Sayin'

7. Can she do that, since she was campaigning?
Somehow I doubt that.

2. PA used to close the bars during voting hours
Edited on Tue Apr-15-08 08:55 AM by JPZenger
PA used to have a law requiring that bars close during voting hours so that candidates can't buy people drinks and then drag them down to the polls. That used to be very common.

9. She is trying to appear like she is not part of the elete.
So what better than to slam down some shots and beer in a bar?

Tho it seems to have backfired against her campaign in my view. To a small degree.

8. I agree. Unless I am mistaken there is still multiple people who have not been paid by the campaign!
I hope she pays the debts soon.

10. ABC: Owes Money to High Schools, Colleges, Small Business, Health Insurance Cos.
http://blogs.abcnews.com/politicalpunch/2008/03/debt-be-not-pro.html

The above article describes the $8 million in debts of the Hillary campaign, including moneys owned to her own high school, community colleges, and many small businesses.

The largest debts that were not paid were for health insurance for her own employees. Ironic, eh?

11. Maybe she can't pay the bills BECAUSE of all the beer
Lots and lots and lots of beer and Crown Royal. It would certainly explain a lot about her campaign.
