"I haven't been "asked for specifics" on either of these topics and you know damned well"

Uh, you have. You then proceed to wave your hands and engage in hyperbole.

"We KNOW that Dodd received a below market loan from Countrywide"

As I pointed out that the time, I bought some property at about the same time as Dodd. Used Countrywide and got about the same deal. Countrywide was a soft touch then. What Dodd got was far from unusual.

"Clinton pardoned an individual, ON THE RECOMMENDATION OF ERIC HOLDER"

Eric Holder was far from the only one affecting his decision. If you read his comments during the decision process, Clinton saw the pardon as a favor to Israel. And, I might add, Scooter Libbey was thoroughly convinced that Marc Rich was innocent of the the tax stuff.

Your accusations of bribery consist mainly of wild speculation and might have beens. As usual.
