Back in the Bush Administration, press reports revealed the corrupt use of U.S. Government grain guarantees to help Saddam Hussein build his war machine before he surprised us by invading Kuwait. When the Justice Department shyly turned away, the need arose for independent counsel to explore "Iraqgate."

No way, said George Bush, already burned by a special prosecution of Iran-contra. His Attorney General instead used a patsy prosecutor until the Independent Counsel Act lapsed.


Well known Marxist William Safire there. Truth and justice was a major concern in that little coda to Iran-contra, just as it was in Iran-contra itself.

brees,

Lets face it. ATT General Janet "Stonewall"
Reno is better at killing off cults and their
leaders like the Branch Davidians of Waco, TX,
than of running the US Department of Justice.

Personally, I don't know why she is the last
member of Clinton's Cabinet to continue to
defend the guy. Maby its because he didn't
tell her to go out onto the steps of the
Whitehouse and lie for him. Who knows? Maby
he has something on her...he does have an
army of private investigators working for him.
Perhaps Clinton, like Nixon, has begun to turn
on his own Cabinet thinking that they were out
to get him. The Vast, Right-Wing Conspiracy
knows no boundaries...
