"Leonard Garment, William Bradford Reynolds and Lewis Libby"

Tiger, the problem with your post is that all of these men were attorneys who represented Marc Rich. They were earning a fee not expressing their personal judgment. For Clinton to say I relied upon that is absurd. He knows that what an attorney may say in the course of representing a client is hardly objective.

GET REAL! Those big-time lawyers are not in favor of a pardon for Marc Rich unless they are being paid currently to get it for him. If they were getting paid they would be for it, since they are not they are against it. That's the way it works in Washington.

>>The actual lies are by these three men who seize on a narrow technical argument that they did not approve the particular pardon to obscure the fact that they have advocated and written for years that the crimes which were pardoned were not crimes at all. They might as well claim that they had nothing to do with it because they didn't hand Clinton the pen to sign it.

The NYTimes went out of their way to show that Clinton lied in their scathing editorial yesterday against Clinton and his insupportable acts.
