1.8 Million Clinton-Gore emails found

1.8 MILLION CLINTON WHITE HOUSE E-MAILS FINALLY FOUND!

(Washington, DC) - Judicial Watch, the public interest law firm that investigates and prosecutes government corruption, said today that the government, in a court filing January 9, 2002, has admitted that it found 1,844,242 e-mail from the Clinton-Gore White House. This e-mail has never been searched in response to subpoenas and documents requests from Judicial Watch, Congress, and independent counsels. The e-mail were restored at a cost to taxpayers thus far of $12,066,346. The e-mail, which is in the custody of the National Archives, must now be searched pursuant to court orders.

Judicial Watch, which is prosecuting the Filegate $90 million class action lawsuit on behalf of those whose FBI files were misused by the Clinton White House, first exposed the e-mail scandal in early 2000 through its client Sheryl Hall, a former top computer official at the Clinton White House, who testified that incriminating e-mail concerning virtually all the Clinton-Gore scandals had never been produced as they should have in response to document requests and subpoenas. Another Judicial Watch client, former White House computer contractor Betty Lambuth, also testified (along with others) that high-level White House officials threatened Northrop Grumman White House computer contractors to keep quiet about the hidden e-mail or face jail and firing. These threats occurred in the middle of the Lewinsky scandal. The scandal was the subject of a months-long evidentiary hearing that included the testimony of the late Charles Ruff, John Podesta, and Cheryl Mills. The court is in now considering whether to commence criminal contempt proceedings. A decision is expected soon.

“We are confident that the e-mail contains a treasure trove of information concerning Filegate, Chinagate, and, yes, even Enrongate. Any incriminating e-mail will be part of renewed Judicial Watch efforts to put the Clintons in jail,” stated Judicial Watch Chairman and General Counsel Larry Klayman.

Oh, well. It's worth it I suppose. Will they post the emails to the web?

During the Lewinsky scandal, the press kept referring to the $40 million investiation. I kept thinking "If we investigate corruption only up to some set dollar figure, we are only going to encourage corrupt leaders to become more skillful in their stonewalling and obstruction of justice". Some costs must be borne in defense of freedom. If this nails Clinton, it would be worth every penny.

Why??? Judicial Watch is overreaching. There are very few in this country who want the spectacle of a clintoon trial. I sure don't, and I dislike those vermin more than almost anyone.
Just let them go away! If other countries want to give billy vast sums, that's their problem. I don't care if they get rich, as long as they no longer have control.
And there's no way that hilly could ever be elected as Pres or VP. Let's not spend any more money on them than we have to.

If they have been in the custody of the National Archives, we won't find anything. These guys were on C-Span recently salivating over the possibility that a few minutes of the Nixon tapes might be restored while all the time they had the Clinton/Gore e-mails...the 1.8 MILLION e-mails? DC is spiritually toxic and contageous, it appears.

Clinton is still a popular fundraiser for corrupt democrats. Nailing him is still a good thing. Plus there is a good chance we can put the final nail in the Gore in 2004 campaign and Hillary's senate reelection in 2006 too.

For now, this'll be kinda like a lottery ticket.

It's fun to imagine what *might* happen . . .

All kinds of juicy things might be in there. Mark Rich stuff? Monica? Something we haven't even heard of yet?

Nailing him is still a good thing.

Plus, to really get to him, I bet the thing he most fears is something tarnishing his 'legacy'.

Even if there's no actual illegality in there, this could still 'ruin' his legacy. In many ways, it was the paranoia, crude language and racism in Nixon's tapes that did him in almost as much as the lawbreaking.
