He also seduced the American people into believing him, and they won't be sucking on his lolly-pop anymore!

Clinton lied under oath. He committed perjury. He maneuvered subordinates so they would unwittingly lie under oath. That's the highest attack there can be on our system of justice. And by a President whose oath of office requires him to uphold the law of the land.

As for subverting the democratic process, do you think Clinton would ever have won in 1992 if people had known the truth? He lied. Jerry Brown warned everyone what would happen.

William Safire has written many columns concerning the 1996 election. Safire says Clinton stole that election by getting illegal $$$ from many sources, including the Chinese and laundering other illegal $$$ through the Teamsters. Many of the Teamsters have admitted it. Their head was removed and is now awaiting trial.

That allowed Clinton to run an unprecedented campaign of attack ads against Dole. The FEC now says those ads were illegal. They want him to repay $16,000,000 in matching funds.

That's why Reno is being forced to appoint a new IC after two years of obstructing the inquiry. Who said that? Moynihan, last week.

You better believe the Dem pols want Slick out far more than the Reps.

Btw, McLaughlin predicted criminal indictments of 4 Clinton aides in the coming weeks.

Clinton's 1974 remarks on Nixon and
impeachment


Representative Is "Out of Step,"
Clinton Charges

ARKANSAS GAZETTE, 1974

FLIPPIN -- United States Representative John Paul Hammerschmidt of
Harrison is wrong in opposing President Nixon's resignation and is wrong in
questioning whether the president has committed an impeachable offense,
Bill Clinton of Fayetteville, Hammerschmidt's opponent, said here
Wednesday.

In the wake of the president's admission Monday that he had lied about
his role in the Watergate coverup, Hammerschmidt said, "We need to do
our duty as quickly as possible.

We should have done it a year ago."
"I don't see how in the world he can say that when a year ago he was
saying we should forget about it and he voted against giving funds for the
House Judiciary Committee staff," Clinton said.
Hammerschmidt flatly opposed resignation.

"I think it's plain that the president should resign and spare the country the
agony of this impeachment and removal proceeding," Clinton said. "I think
the country could be spared a lot of agony and the government could worry
about inflation and a lot of other problems if he'd go on and resign."


Hammerschmidt said after the president's revelations Monday he was not
sure whether Mr. Nixon's actions legally were impeachable.
Clinton, a law professor at the University of Arkansas, said there was "no
question that an admission of making false statements to government officials
and interfering with the FBI and the CIA is an impeachable offense."



Hammerschmidt's statement "puts him out of step with all the Republicans
on the Judiciary Committee who voted against impeachment" before the
Monday revelations and now are "calling for resignation because of clear
and direct evidence of an impeachable offense," Clinton said.

Clinton said he was campaigning hard across the Third Congressional
District and was "pleased with the response I'm getting."
Although it's "hard to raise money in July and August for a November
campaign, especially after the very expensive primaries," Clinton said, "so far
I've made all my expenses and our planning is going along well."
