SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — An appeals court on Monday dismissed a lawsuit that accused Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton and two former advisers to President Clinton of conspiring to discredit Gennifer Flowers after she claimed she had an affair with the former president.

Flowers sued James Carville and George Stephanopoulos for defamation in 1999, after they suggested in talk show interviews that the audiotapes she used to try to prove she and Clinton had an affair were doctored.

Flowers amended the suit in 2000 to add the former first lady, whom she accused of conspiring to plant false reports that the tapes were doctored.

On Monday, the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals unanimously upheld a Nevada district court ruling that the claim against Hillary Clinton was barred by the state's four-year statute of limitations.

IMO she was the only good-looking one of the lot that came forward.

Before this enters the dustbin of history, keep in mind who it was that claimed the tapes were doctored.

Thanks for the links. It is easy to forget all the details. More should be made of the Pelicano connection to Hillary.
