Books Paint Critical Portraits of Clinton (Hillary 'Seriously Feared' Indictment by Starr)
The Washington Post ^ | Friday, May 25, 2007 | Peter Baker and John Solomon

"A Woman in Charge: The Life of Hillary Rodham Clinton," by Carl Bernstein,

SNIP

"Her Way: The Hopes and Ambitions of Hillary Rodham Clinton," by Jeff Gerth and Don Van Natta Jr., reports that during her husband's 1992 campaign, a team she oversaw hired a private investigator to undermine Gennifer Flowers "until she is destroyed." Flowers had said publicly that she had an affair with Bill Clinton while he was governor of Arkansas.

SNIP

At one point, Hillary Clinton was convinced she would be next, worried that Whitewater prosecutor Kenneth W. Starr would indict her for perjury or obstruction of justice arising from statements she made under oath about her work for Madison Guaranty Savings and Loan, the Whitewater investment or long-missing billing records. "When I say there was a serious fear she would be indicted, I can't overstate that," Fabiani told Bernstein.

SNIP

In Bernstein's account, both Clintons went to great lengths to keep the lid on his infidelities. At the behest of Wright and Hillary Clinton, two partners with Hillary Clinton at the Rose Law Firm, Webster L. Hubbell and Vincent W. Foster Jr., were hired to represent women named in a lawsuit as having secret affairs with the governor. Hubbell and Foster questioned the women, then obtained signed statements that they never had sex with Bill Clinton. On one occasion, Bernstein reports, Hillary Clinton was present for the questioning.

Bernstein also reports that Bill Clinton, with Morris's help, pressured Wright to issue a false statement denying comments she had made to David Maraniss, a Washington Post reporter, for his book, "First in his Class," in which she said Arkansas state troopers had procured women for the governor.

An implied threat with possible compensation is probably more like it.

"...Webster L. Hubbell and Vincent W. Foster Jr., were hired to represent women named in a lawsuit as having secret affairs with the governor. Hubbell and Foster questioned the women, then obtained signed statements that they never had sex with Bill Clinton."

I've always suspected that the demise of Vince Foster (however he really died) had everything to do with him finally getting sick of cleaning up messes for the Clintonistas. Maybe he told Shrillery he was through, maybe they had a blow-up over managing ongoing scandals, and/or she thoroughly demeaned and degraded him as only a cold-hearted ruthless B***H like Shrillery can do. Whatever happened, he was through with the Clintonistas and then they were through with him. [he may well have been a suicide, though it does appear that the body and evidence were tampered with, but he would not have been driven to take his own life had Shrillery not ruined it first]

Rubbish. The Klintoons were happy when he got the job. Remember? He’s a shill in this whole game.Get with it people - The Klintoons are above the law. This Immigration is above the will of the people. The country is not represented by the people. It is an oligarchy with a fraud MSN. Bush & his adoped brother, Bubba, come from the same elitist / globalist creations.

go back and read the FR research, he was murdered and bill clinton gave his widow about a half million in cash from a brief case he carried that night when he personally visited the widow. Don’t believe it....there is more than enough evidence to convict the Clintons of murder, bribery, fraud, conspiracy and abuse of authority in the murder of more than 100 people connected with there rise to power.

My take is that he shot himself because he was being set up as the fall guy for Travelgate, and that he shot himself in his office. To me, this neatly explains everything.

A few years ago, the second page of Vince’s autopsy was up on the web and I happened to read it for the one day it was up [don’t ask, I can’t prove it was in fact the second page of his autopsy not a forgery, and I have no idea why it was disappeared so quickly). How many suicides do you know of where a person shoots self behind the ear with a .22 then places a .38 in their mouth and pulls the trigger?

No! He was in the process of preparing the federally required documents related to the Clinton’s finances. There was evidence that Foster had set up Swiss bank accounts for Hillary in the millions, and possibly for Bill, and that since he was supposed to file the federal election forms for them, he as a lawyer was conflicted about the illegal transactions. Apparently, when he balked about completing the forms, he was visited by Patsy Thomasson, the key Arkansas Mafia contact in the White House who took care of such matters, for several hours in closed quarters. She was the last person who reportedly saw him alive. The White House video tapes that would have shown
Foster’s arrival and departure disappeared. Interestingly enough, Clinton’s long-time body guard from the Arkansas days was appointed to head the FEMa program in Arkansas at $90,000 a year the day after Vince Foster died...curious coincidence!
