After the reason for the letter became moot, Bush was approached by a stock broker regarding a buyer he had for his stock. Since the underlying rationale for him to sell still obtained, AFTER checking with Harken's lawyers, and his lawyers, regarding insider information and Rule 144 issues, and after they gave him the OK to sell, he did. He then waived the attorney client privilege to facilitate the ensuing SEC investigation. This is all set for forth in this article. There really is no there there, and this hit piece doesn't change the compelling exculpatory nature of the underlying facts.

The media, however, is not concerned with "underlying facts". Especially, if they are "exculpatory"...

This is the point that should be shouted from the mountain top, given that Clinton attempted even to claim attorney-client privilege on "private matters" discussed with his "White House" counsel.
