Well, Vince Foster's suicide was not bloodless...and even Ken Starr felt it was a suicide. This, like allegations about GWB's military service, have been probed and argued so many times...I just can't see it having any traction. Wrestling with clinical depression, Foster was prescribed a mild sleeping aid/anti-anxiety pill, Trazodone, over the phone by his doctor, though he only had taken a few before he died. The next day, Foster was found dead in Fort Marcy Park, a federal park in Virginia. He was found with a gun in his hand and gunshot residue on that hand. An autopsy determined that he was shot in the mouth and no other wounds were found on his body. A suicide note of sorts, actually a draft of a resignation letter, was found torn into 27 pieces in his briefcase, a list of complaints specifically mentioning the Wall Street Journal and complaining "I was not meant for the job or the spotlight of public life in Washington. Here ruining people is considered sport." Investigations by a coroner and independent counsel Robert B. Fiske concluded that Foster had committed suicide, though some suspect a cover-up. After a three-year investigation, Whitewater independent counsel Kenneth Starr[9][10] released a report also concluding that the death was a suicide. en.wikipedia.org query.nytimes.com _____________________________ 65% of the American Public now look favorably on the Clinton presidency. If the republicans are going to beat her, it won't be with old hijinks or bad acts. It has to focus on her policies, like the ill-conceived "money at birth" business.
