Wow! Thanks for posting this story. I had heard about this scandal a few years ago and never thought it would see the light of day. Interesting screenname given your posting history. Welcome to Free Republic! :-)
Wow. I thought this scandal had been lost forever.
He get that great expert on Scottish verdicts, Sen. Specter, to be his barrister.
(((PING Clinton Scandal alert)))
Put some ice on it.
Very interesting!
Has the Honorable Senator Specter weighed in, given that he is the preeminent scholar in regards to Scottish Law.
The collecting of this tainted blood in Arkansas prisons during the time Clinton was governor should have been a huge scandal but as usual, it didn't get the light of day because the liberal press was protecting RATS.
Why the heck are prisoners' blood being used for anything? Of course the vast majority of it will be infected with something. If BJ signed his name to the paper, he should be brought up on charges.
Maybe we will then find out what the meaning of "is" is.
Welcome!
I just hope ClinToon didn't donate his own blood.
The Ottawa Citizen 10/4/98 Mark Kennedy ".The controversy over how a U.S. firm collected tainted blood from Arkansas prison inmates and shipped it to Canada has spread to Vince Foster -- U.S. President Bill Clinton's personal confidant who committed suicide in 1993..Now, five years after his mysterious death, two developments have prompted questions about Mr. Foster's knowledge of the U.S. company's prison-blood collection scheme: - There are signs that Mr. Foster tried to protect the company called Health Management Associates (HMA) more than a decade ago in a lawsuit. - And a major U.S. daily newspaper recently reported that Mr. Foster may have been worried about the tainted-blood scandal, which was just emerging as a contentious issue in Canada, when he killed himself in July 1993..Indeed, on Sept. 16 -- eight weeks after Foster's death -- the federal government announced the public inquiry, to be headed by Justice Horace Krever. During the course of his work, Justice Krever unearthed the Arkansas prison- blood collection scheme and wrote about it in his final report last year. However, no mention was made of Mr. Clinton until last month's story in the Citizen, which drew on documents obtained from Arkansas State Police files."
WorldNetdaily 9/29/98 Joseph Farah ".Here's the story: In the early 1980s, while Bill Clinton was serving as governor of Arkansas, his administration awarded a contract to Health Management Associates to provide medical care to the state's prisoners. The president of the company was, naturally, a long-time friend and political ally of Clinton and was later appointed by him to the Arkansas Industrial Development Commission. Later, he was among the senior members of Clinton's 1990 gubernatorial re- election team. As part of the deal HMA struck with Arkansas, in addition to treating the prisoners, the company collected their blood and sold it. Because of the exploding AIDS crisis, U.S. regulations didn't permit the sale of prisoners' blood within the country. But HMA found a willing buyer in Montreal, which brokered a deal with Connaught, a Toronto blood-fractionator, which didn't know the source of the supplies. The blood was distributed throughout Canada by the Red Cross. Sales continued until 1983, when HMA revealed that some of the plasma might be contaminated with the AIDS virus and hepatitis. The blood was also peddled overseas. .Galster charges HMA officials knew the blood was tainted as they sold it to Canada and a half-dozen other foreign countries. He also alleges that Clinton knew of the scheme and likely benefited from it financially. "We now have solid evidence he not only knew about it, but he signed off on it," Galster told the Calgary Sun.."
Praise be! Who didn't think this was swept under the rug forever? While Clinton was using his executive powers to stalk women, innocent people on several continents were being given death sentences. What a sorry sack of @$*%!!
Drag in Libby Dole since she was the head of the Red Cross and they helped move the blood to these countries during that period.
I wonder if Bill and Hill left themselves enough cover story evidence like they usually leave behind as they habitually schemed to rig the evidence for a future way out in case one of their scandals were discovered.

They say the Scots are so tight , they can squeeze blood from a turnip. If they can squeeze truth from Clinton, they would be the first to do so.
Shouldn't we just save the poor Scots the trouble of trying to get an answer out of him? His testimony will read something like this:
"I do not recall"
"I have no recollection of that"
"Those documents cannot be found"
