Subject: Re: THE CORRUPT CAREER OF ALFONSE D'AMATO
dporter@magpie.com (David Porter) supplicated thusly to the portals of
heaven:
=>Get your facts straight. There is not one molecule of evidence, hearsay
=>or otherwise, implicating Bill Clinton or any member in his administration
=>in Whitewater. Hillary Clinton is at the center of the probe and she's
Lessee....
Web's in the crowbar motel.
Altman "resigned" in disgrace.
Tucker is now plea bargaining with Starr.
Lindsey went underground.
Nussbaum "resigned".
Thomasses is outre.
Gearan was "transferred."
Hillary was subpoenaed by grand jury.
Vince is dead.
"Evidence" is determined by the court, not by ABC News or the NY Times
or the Washington Post. On the other hand, obvious conflicts in sworn
testimony are on the record, for all to see and hear, somewhat
transcending the notion of "evidence". But we'll give you the benefit
of the doubt and agree that - technically - there is as yet no
"evidence," as the trials have not yet begun.
Nonetheless, you might want to tape the following to your refrigerator
door for imminent review. Note that Web, while previously sentenced
for the "unauthorized taking" of client and firm funds, may have
plea-bargained his way out of the obstruction issues. Yet 18 USC 1001,
1502, 1503, 1505, and 1512 *do* call for some additions to this list
(Hillary, Thomasses, Williams, Ickes, et al.).
But you can't have everything, now can you.
