BILL BRINGS UP WH INVESTIGATION

[sniffa]

Campaigning solo for his wife today, Bill Clinton was asked what he thought voters should know about his wife that they probably didn't already know. He had a rather curious response.

First, he referred to something he read in a recent book about his presidency, that a survey in the mid-90s found that he and Hillary Clinton were the top two "most vilified people by right-wing talk radio," ahead even of Saddam Hussein. He then said: "I'm not sure that everybody knows she was completely exonerated of all the charges that were leveled against her in the White House. Even by Kenneth Starr, who was a very political prosecutor."

Clinton then quickly moved on, telling a story he often does on the trail about a good friend who, as an anniversary present of the Clintons, offered to campaign for the New York senator in New Hampshire and tell people about the person he knew personally.

Referring to the past investigations of the Clinton White House is sure to raise eyebrows in a nominating contest increasingly focused on change. But Clinton also alluded to a past statement from Obama, when a voter asked the former president about his wife's vote for the resolution authorizing force in Iraq.

1. Bill, your ego is sooooooo big. I think subconsciously he doesn't want Hillary to win.

2. His entire reason for being involved, is to vindicate himeself for the 90's

Now that he knows they may not win, he's decided to beat us over the head with it.

3. Bill only spoke the truth about what the investigation. Oh did

any of you know the Whitewater investigation could have ended in late 95 and early 96. Yep, the republican led committee hired a form, Pillsbury, Madison and & Sutro investigated. The exhaustive report by the Pillsbury law firm had massively found in the Clintons’ favor. The report was prepared by the firm’s Jay Stephens, a former prosecutor—and a partisan Republican. Two days before the Times’ Christmas Eve dispatch, Howard Kurtz noted the way a string of news orgs were burying news of the Clintons’ exoneration: And to all that believe the msm is giving hrc a free pass do not see how they covered up the true story about no crime by either clinton in whitewater.
