Mark Penn, Clinton’s Georgetown/DC pollster who is the ‘Worldwide President and CEO of Burson-Marsteller’, the mega public relations and lobbying firm, made two contributions to Hillary Clinton for $2300.00 each. Curiously, Penn’s address is listed as Miami, Florida, 33140 and his occupation as CEO of Penn & Schoen.
No mention of Burson-Marsteller.
But, according to the Burston-Marsteller website, “Mark Penn is worldwide CEO of Burson-Marsteller and President [not CEO] of Penn, Schoen and Berland. As CEO of Burson-Marsteller, Mr. Penn oversees a global network of 94 offices and 1600 employees that brings world-class public relations to companies around the world.” Penn works out of the D.C. office. Sounds like he’s pretty busy.
So, why no mention of his employer Burston-Marsteller?
Penn’s wife, Nancy Jacobsen Penn, a Clinton fundraiser, was paid $10,000 by the Clinton campaign. She, too, made two $2300 contributions and listed her address as Washington, D.C.
So, where does Penn live and who’s his employer?
OTHER PEOPLE’S MONEY - NOT ALL IN THE FAMILY
A review of Hillary’s contributors shows no one named Rodham or Clinton made any contributionS to her campaign. Not one.

For the Clintons money flows in a single direction. Towards themselves and to support that which benefits them. It is unnatural for them to donate. It defies their sense of entitlement, the depth of which caused them to actually have a gift registry upon leaving the White House, government property and furniture in tow. Also cite the inability of their charitable foundation to actually donate the money, pending rewards to charities of favorite donors I am guessing.
I found the following quote at this site. What a great fit.

“Burson Marsteller (BM) is a large and powerful public relations company which is adept at creating a positive image for corporations involved in unethical business practices including human rights violations, environmental destruction and animal-testing. Many of these companies have faced public scrutiny and even convictions for their various activities.”
