There were at least two Congressional investigations into the Rich pardon and a NY state investigation, too. All prompted by his wife (or ex-wife's), ah, financial generosity to the Democratic party and to the Clintons. I don't know what may have happened to the investigations, but I doubt they went anywhere.

Clinton now "regrets" the pardon. But he isn't giving the moolah back, so the regret is one of the many Clinton has had whenever he is confronted with an ethically-challenged act on his part.

I doubt that Rich's involvement with Iraq is legal; he may face charges yet again. Rich might have to escape to Switzerland again to avoid prosecution since, obviously, the pardon won't affect any corrupt deals he made with Saddam.

I don't think this will help the Democrats in the upcoming election. They can think of Rich as one of Clinton's chickens coming home to roost.

Barbara Olson, one of the victims of the hijacked jet that crashed in Pa. on 9/11, wrote a scathing book on the Clintons' cupidity in the last days of their Administration.
