Whiff of corruption. If I remember the details of accusations against the Clinton's they appear to have been numerous. So many in fact that I cannot enumerate and maybe someone here can. What I remember there was Travel gate which was not disputed.But that did not seem to be so serious ? Hillary wanted her friends to have the job.. Seems normal to me. There was the one about the land deal which Susan McDougal went to jail for as she said the charges were bogus and she would not lie to the investigating committee. Starr wanted her to testify AGAINST the Clintons and she would not as she said the charges were trumped up ones and that she had been bribed by Starr to incriminate Bill and Hillary. There was purported murder of Vince Foster which was never proved although in some minds I think the Clintons were held responsible. The Ken Starr investigations seemed to go on forever but never produced any concrete wrong doings. When I later learned that Richard Mellon Scarif was behind a lot of the ruckus always coming up with money to pay for investigations of the Clintons, hounding them trying to get something on them. It was all politics. In my biased mind as I liked Bill and Hillary and thought Bill was a wonderful president who represented this Country well they never had any charge that stuck until the Monica Lewinsky debacle...and subsequent impeachment for lying . The latter was the one thing that I have held against Bill.. The other to me was muck raking. Now, I will be glad to reevaluate my opinion if anyone can tell me what they did that was illegal and proved as I might be very wrong in my assessment. And with regard to Bill and the latest charges we really haven't heard all of the details. I even thought that perhaps he, being a good friend of senior Bush, was trying to help the president in his determination to have the deal go through. I know he brokered the 45 day hiatus. I think.. When I mention follow the money.. There are so many things in the current administration where money has been lost... companies hired and paid without bidding.. e.g. Halburton..that it all runs off my back as just the old political cronyism..You scratch my back and I scratch yours. Inevitable it seems although I wish it were not so. Bill and Hillary have been fall guys for so long I really wish there were proof of their dalliances... C2 maybe you could be more specific and detailed.. YOU DO IT OR NO $... from me.(:(
