Thread Name: BS: William Jefferson Clinton
Subject: RE: BS: William Jefferson Clinton
O.k. Claymore, there are sites on line that talk about Juanita. I could not find any of them that looked like a news site, so have no way of judging. Those are the same kind of web-sites that believe Hillary had Mr. Hubbel murdered. Som people were willing to believe any lie if it related to Clinton, and the wilder and crazier it was, the better. I'm not going to believe stuff that does not come from a a reliable source, like a newspaper. Basically hate mongering and no facts. Hubbel was not a cabinet member and was not indicted, contrary to your assetions, he was a lawyer and committed suicide.

One cabinet member was convicted. That was Cisneros. A jury found that Cisneros actually understated the amount he annually gave to his ex-girlfriend. God, what an awful criminal Cisneros was! What a brilliant hatchet-man Kenneth Starr was, to get a conviction for that! But any old prosecutor can get an indictment for just about anything; they control testimony before grand jury, and no witness or accused is even permitted a lawyer, opening statement or closing argument. Astounding the man did not indict everyone in the place.

And yes, I recall Susan McDougal. She refused to give the testimony Starr demanded, so he put her in jail, for 22 months, I think, but it might be less. Courageous woman, I'd say.

McGrath, just say this. Do you really believe that all that soap-opera is more important than the difference between peace and war? Does it mean nothing, for example, that Clinton did everything in his power to bring peace to Ireland? Or to Israel? All that is meaningless, because he had an affair which an intern, which is what seems to be what really disturbs you?

Is that what it means to be truly on the "left"?
