The Clintons have finally made their tax returns available--not surprisingly on a Friday afternoon. They are downloadable here, but what immediately jumped out at me is the fact that the Clinton's reported over $109 million in taxable income from 2000-2007.

Thant figure includes $51.85 million in Bill Clinton's speaking income, $29.58 million from his book, $10.46 million in Hillary Clinton's book income, plus her Senate salary and his presidential pension. They paid $33.78 million in taxes during the period, and donated $10.26 million to charity.
