"Whatever I've done, I complied with Senate rules at the time. That's the way every senator operates,"

I am also more important than you.

Case closed.

Cue the Special Prosecutor for the Republican who took a paper clip home.

Dick Morris has been talking about this for the last few days. But Morris goes deeper into it. More Clinton SLIME.

Very interesting. The AP, no less, has Clinton Rodham backpedaling on her abuse of governmental power. Why?

Clinton's campaign has said she reimbursed Gupta at the cost of a first-class flight

What a lovely way to get around campaign donation limits and to buy a government official's time.

“Among other things, the Iraq Study Group warned against sending more troops for long stints in the war zone and initially called for withdrawal by early 2008.”

Which is why she voted to cut funding in mid-2007?

"Those were the rules. You'll have to ask somebody else whether that's good policy," she said.

That could be a great tag line.

I hate this ‘woman’, more than her so called husband.
Disgusting piece of filth.

“Do as I say, not as I do...”

I learned that doing the right thing means doing it ALL the time, especially when people aren’t watching.

If I were a journalist, I’d be asking for the receipts for her payments to good ole Vin Gupta...

Of course this is what got the GOP labled as part of “Culture of Corruption” that the Drive Byes used to get the Rats in Congress. I wonder if CNN and Lou Dobbs will run wall to wall coverage on stuff like this like they did on the GOP?

Is it getting colder in Hades yet?

Hell, a Republican can frown and CNN will have gavel-to-gavel coverage.

I guess there is just no controlling legal authority...

One mustn’t mix with the common folks while one ponders how to finish making the US into a socilaist state, er...communist state!

Move along...commercial jets are for the “little folks”; private jets for the Premier...uh, President.

Didn't some of the Nazis use that excuse in the Nuremberg trials?

I cannot stomach the “woman” either.

There was a point probably somewhere in Clinton’s second term as a Governor where she had to decide: Dance with the Devil or divorce this yahoo.

She decided that ole Bill was going places and rode him for all he was worth.
