The entire issue is a hillary, rangel attempt to create a race baiting issue. That's why it came just after Lott.

All it did was scare the hell out of a lot of soccer moms.
This is such a fear inspiring idea, I wonder how many tens of thousands of UN-democrat votes for the rest of their lives were created.

just like the Timex, clinton's legacy just keeps on ticking

foxnews.com

MIAMI — A California businessman pardoned by President Clinton for a 1983 fraud conviction involving a hair-growth product has been charged with tax evasion.

Agents with the Internal Revenue Service arrested 59-year-old Almon Glenn Braswell on Monday. Federal prosecutors and the IRS had been investigating Braswell and his dietary supplement business.

Braswell served seven months of a three-year prison sentence for falsifying photographs and other documentation for a hair-growth product.

Clinton granted 177 pardons and clemencies just before leaving office in 2001. Braswell's pardon became one of the most criticized after it was learned that the president's brother-in-law, Hugh Rodham, had been paid $200,000 to work on the case. Rodham later returned the money.

Hillary Applauds Rangel for Draft Proposal

Democratic Party presidential frontrunner Sen. Hillary
Clinton said yesterday that she applauds Rep. Charlie
Rangel, D-NY, for calling for a return to the military
draft, as she prepared to accept a coveted spot on the
Senate Armed Services Committee.

Clinton, whose husband dodged three separate draft notices
during the Vietnam War, told reporters that she "applauded"
Rangel for reviving the draft debate, according to Newsday,
although she doesn't see the need to return to military
conscription at this time.

Mrs. Clinton's elevation to the Senate Armed Services
Committee will give her a larger say in Congressional
battles over the military's role in Iraq, North Korea and
other global hot spots, as well as a significant role in
influencing the military's budget.

During the Clinton administration, military budgets were
slashed to the bone, leaving weapons procurement, combat
readiness and troop morale at their lowest point since the
Carter administration.
