Here's some more laws that Reno refused to enforce, to save her job and to help AlGore the Junior - who asserted in his defense that he has "no controlling legal authority" - avoid a probe of his illegal fundraising: ...Another witness, FBI general counsel Larry Parkinson, told the subcommittee why he felt an independent counsel should have been appointed to investigate Vice President Gore for possible false statements in telling investigators that he thought he was raising only "soft money" when he solicited contributions for a 1996 television campaign with phone calls from his West Wing office. Parkinson said there were four witnesses to a fall 1995 meeting--not two as Reno said in her final decision--who recalled Gore being present when the need for "a hard-money component" was discussed. Gore said he drank a lot of iced tea and often took bathroom breaks, but Parkinson said he did not find that explanation "very compelling." search.washingtonpost.com
