Heaven to Betsy…we know enough about those pardons to call them outrageous, among other adjectives like, criminal. But, this is what we would expect from a sex/drug/power addicted sociopath and pathological liar (and his ‘wife’ who wants to rule the world). It’s classic Bubba and he’s not just loved by his fans, he’s worshiped…oh, how they wish that they could get away with half of what Billy’s done!

Also, note the body language of the happy couple: he’s reaching over to hold her hand but they’re both looking away from each other. They have to constantly be on the lookout for the slings and arrows of their unfulfilled karma.

Obama needs to start bludgeoning Clinton everyday with this….I believe this is a center of gravity issue.

More words of wisdom from the silver screen: In today’s installment, “The Untouchables”

Malone: You wanna know how you do it? Here’s how, they pull a knife, you pull a gun. He sends one of yours to the hospital, you send one of his to the morgue. That’s the Chicago way, and that’s how you get Capone! Now do you want to do that? Are you ready to do that?

Hillary Clinton’s Scorched Earch Policy…

With her campaign crashing and burning, and her staff plagued with infighting, back-bighting and power struggles, it allows us to catch a glimpse of what a future Hillary presidency would be like. It would look much the same as it did the last time s…..

Of course they are blocking release of the pardon papers. It was a case of corruption with the Clintons literally selling pardons in exchange for cash to the Clinton Library. One of those pardons involved the Hasidic Jews of NY who delivered their community’s votes to Hillary in exchange for pardons.

I know I’m a newbie here but I must take issue with the post about Elian Gonzalez.

It was the one thing BJ Clinton did right, even though it meant sending him back.

The first reason is that nobody had legal standing in Florida courts to assert custody rights. Once it became clear that his father was going to claim him, the law made a different result impossible. (The Supreme Court validated this with the Troxel v Granville decision)

The second reason is that Elian will never forget that the USA (with all its power) did not keep him from his father. He’s like a Manchurian Candidate sleeper in Cuba, and it is his generation that is soon to take over.

BJ Clinton remembered the hurt of not having a father and he did the right thing by refusing to do it to some other kid.

Hey Clintonistas! I’ve got four words for you!

Freedom Of Information Act!

Any honest investigative reporter out there looking for your big break?

Go get ‘em!

I believe USA Today has already FOIA’d them, or Judicial Watch, and the release was delayed for some time, then what they DID release was so heavily redacted as to be useless.

Bubba, and his spear catcher Bruce Lindsey, keep saying it’s the archivists holding things up, but it is Lindsey who has the final say as Bubba’s representative.

It shouldn’t be that difficult for any media organization (or private individual for that matter) to FOIA these, then sue them in federal court when they refuse. The law says 20 days to comply. I believe it was a lawsuit that forced the original papers to be released, yet they were useless.

Imagine how the press would react if Bush withheld documents pertaining to Abu Ghraib, or Gitmo, or Haditha? or any classified intelligence operation?

REAL SIMPLE: The Clintons don’t want to disclose the $10 million Billy Jeff gets annually from Dubai as an advisor, which will get the far lefties in an uproar, since the Bush administration MUST be the only entity getting rich on ME oil. Quite the conundrum for the conservative haters. Seeing that Billy Jeff already leased the Long Beach harbor to the Chinese Navy and pardoned Puerto Rican terrorists for his “wife’s” votes from that community, along with giving nuclear technology to the Chinese, I’m surprised his Presidential library hasn’t had an “electrical” fire yet….Most exciting of all will be the Democratic convention. Howard Dean will be screaming alright…..Yeeeaaaaaaarrrggghhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Of course the Clintons are blocking release of the pardon records. Of all the scandals of the Clinton Administration, this is the most egregious. This is the one scandal that has the greatest chance of sending them both to jail.

As to Hillary, the pardons of the Hasidic Jew embezzlers in New York City, which gave Hillary that community’s vote for Senator is the most damning.

Why doesn’t Obama go after this issue tooth and nail?

The media are all too complicit in this double standard toward the Clintons.

My favorite was a comment Newsweak’s Eleanor Rodham Clift made at the time of the Marc Rich pardon. She said she had no problem with Bubbah giving Denise Rich’s husband a pardon in exchange for a roll in the hay.

Let’s not forget the pardon for the Rabbi from New Square, Rockland County, when she was running for her first senate seat.That guaranteed a nice bloc vote.

How can they block those papers? Aren’t they official government documents? I doubt there are any national security issues at stake. Well, maybe Hillery’s security or job prospects, but tough human digestive by-product. Seems a Freedom of Information Act request should be enough. Undoubtedly, those documents were constructed on company time.

-Never mind the media should be looking into that Rezko/Obama connection.

-Perhaps SNL will do a skit on BillHillies pardons, the Marc Rich stuff would be x rated though as I imagine Bill got favored with more than cash on that one.

What fresh hell is this? MORE dirt on Clinton inc. deals? I’m suffering info overload-I can’t keep the deceptions straight anymore! I appreciate the Clinton Library holding back even MORE scandals-I don’t know how much more I could stand.
If the Internet had been in full force in 1992, disseminating information as we do now…the Clintons would never have made it to the White House.

There was also the curious case of a fellow named Bachtu, who was a small time federal convict. His family gave $5,000.00 dollars to the Hillary Clinton US Senate campaign in 2000. There is no way that either Clinton would have known him or considered a pardon for this Bachtu character if not for some quid pro quo.
And lets not forget that Fife Symington of Arizona, who was a Clinton supporter who got a pardon as did Ravenal of South Carolina. But Bachtu needs to be investigated.

And, should Obama win the day based on the secrecy of the Clintons, John McCain can go after him on the Rezko matter, using his own words.

Too little attention has been paid to another of Clinton’s pardons: The FARC terrorists. They’re relevant to today’s headlines.

Some enterprising journalist should be tracking down every single one of those he pardoned (to get votes for her) and see where they are today. Were any of them in the Equadoran jungles? Perhaps in Times Square night before last? Who knows…they’re TERRORISTS~~free to roam the country Thanks to Bill and Hill.

Another Hillary act to bash, to renig on her political agreement to NOT seat delegates from Michigan & Florida is to prove her to be untrustworthy, not only domestically, but regarding ANY international agreement. Pres. Hillary will not ever honor her treaties; THAT is the ugliest American and the candidate most likely to destroy the integrity of the office.

Let’s not forget about the outrageous pardon of the FALN terrorists, which make it impossible for Hillary to go after Obama for his relationship with Bill Ayers and Bernadine Dohrn.

Nor about condemning Elian Gonzolez, an innocent child, to hard labor and brainwashing for life in Castro’s Cuba.
