We touched on this yesterday, and I'm told that we've received a mess-o-emails asking me to put something about it on the Nuze today. Ok .. so here we go with the abbreviated version of Hillary's shenanigans when she was working for the House Judiciary Committee during the Nixon impeachment mess. If you want the full story click here to read the column by Dan Calabrese.
http://www.northstarwriters.com/dc163.htm
* Hillary Rodham gets a spot on the legal staff of the House Judiciary Committee upon the recommendation of a lawyer pal of Ted Kennedy.
* The man who hires Hillary is Jerry Zeifman, a lifelong Democrat.
* The House Judiciary Committee is investigating Richard Nixon with an eye on impeachment.
* A question arises as to whether or not Nixon is legally entitled to counsel during the investigation. If so, his council would be allowed to cross examine witnesses appearing before the panel.
* The concern about having counsel for Nixon cross examine witnesses centered on E. Howard Hunt. Democrats on the committee feared that Nixon's counsel would elicit information from Hunt that would be very damaging to the Kennedys. *
* Zeifman tells Hillary that Nixon is entitled to counsel. He cites documents in the committee's public file referencing the fact that Supreme Court Justice William O. Douglas had representation four years earlier while he was being investigated.
* Hillary removes the documents from the committees public file and places them under lock and key in her office where they are not available for media or public scrutiny.
* Hillary then prepares a brief for filing with a federal judge which falsely states that there is no precedent for an official being investigated by the committee to have legal representation during that investigation.
* Nixon resigns before Hillary has a chance to submit the brief in which she makes knowingly false claims.
* Zeifman then fires Hillary. Hillary asks for a letter of recommendation. Zeifman says no. This was only the third time in Zeifman's 17 years with the committee that he had refused a letter of recommendation.
Zeifman told Dan Calabrese that if Hillary had actually submitted the brief she most likely would have been disbarred. We're trying to arrange for Jerry Zeifman to be a guest on the show today.
So .. all you Hillary fans out there. Here we have your hero once again hiding documents that could be damaging to her cause (Rose Law Firm billing records, Vince Foster's files) and then committing an unethical act in preparing a brief on a point of law she knew to be false. And you want this lady to be our president?
Oh ... and why haven't we heard about this before? It seems to me that the media would be interested in this level of dishonesty and unethical behavior by Hillary Clinton.
Just like Devo....way ahead of your time.
DO NOT FORGET_ Hildabeast left Chelsea as the de facto First Lady when she became the NY senator. I can see her doing the same shuffle with that senate seat. Senator Chelsea Clinton. You have to “kill” the Clinton Medusa politically, socially and spiritually. Those last two are already dead within them. Two down, one to go.

Where did you get that idea?
That is more important than winning the White House. I we can get a veto-proof majority of AMERICAN-TYPE conservatives in both houses they can see that who sits in the Oval Office will have to play it straight in the TRUE INTEREST OF America.
Bootz is a dick head.
Are you trying to start a fight or just being a jackass? Either way, what he has to say is one helluva lot more intelligent thatn wht you have come forth with so far.
He is still a dick head, he and O’Reilly are twins.
FROM WIZBANG. LOOK WHAT HAPPENS WHEN SOMEONE DARES TO MAKE A CHARGE AGAINST HILLARY. THIS LIFELONG DEM GETS SKEWERED.

Boy howdy, ain’t this campaign fun?
The crap never stops flying, and it always manages to land on those most deserving of a faceful of crap.
This time, it’s Hillary Clinton. She doesn’t talk about it much, but her experience in matters presidential extends well before her inauguration as First Lady and Co-President on January 20, 1993. Almost exactly 20 years before that, she was on the House staff that was preparing the impeachment of President Richard Nixon.
And her old boss from those days recalls her and her then-colleagues (Bernard Nussbaum and John Doar). He reports that the three of them attempted to subvert Constitutional rights and clear orders from their nominal bosses in their attempt to railroad Nixon into a completely unfair Impeachment hearing.
Of course, Nixon deserved to be impeached, but even he should have had a fair trial. That was too much to expect from the young Hillary Rodham, who wanted Nixon denied access to counsel and the Committee denied power to do any of its own investigating. She seemed to be on the “hang ‘em first” persuasion on the matter.
Now, if in 2004, George W. Bush’s Texas Air National Guard service from the early 1970’s was fair game, even with the alleged main accuser long dead, how the hell is Hillary Clinton’s service in the would-be impeachment of President Nixon not worthy of discussion and investigation? Especially in light of the fact that her boss at the time isn’t speaking from beyond the grave with a faked memo, but is alive and has been telling this story to anyone who will listen for almost a decade, at least?
There has to be at least one honest journalist out there who can dig through the records and find out if Hillary’s old boss, Jerry Zeifman, is telling the truth.
And we don’t have to rely on the “fake, but accurate” meme this time around.

Actually Mary Mapes is busy this month condemning the Los Angeles Times for running a story about the Tupac Shakur murders that was based on crudely forged documents.
Yes, the irony was reaching Stage 3 levels.

You should have done a little research before you posted.
I thought we were supposed to be better than Gunga and Mary.
There’s plenty to trash Hillary with that is better documented than this.
You might want to go to Zeifman’s web site and look around.

Kobe, I just called for an investigation. I didn’t say it was true, just that at this point, it was a hell of a lot more convincing than the fake Bush/Texas Air National Guard stories were when CBS ran with them.

Just because someone is nutty doesn’t mean their story might not be true.
However, I recommend waiting until AFTER the convention to get started on this stuff.

KobeClan:
From a John Dean review of Zeifman’s book “Without Honor”:
John Dean: The House Judiciary Committee’s recommendation in 1974 that Nixon
be impeached was nearly thwarted by a sham congressional inquiry, according to this blistering expose. Zeifman was chief counsel to the committee during the impeachment inquiry... He charges that John Doar, special counsel to the inquiry, intentionally orchestrated a charade because he feared that a thorough investigation of the Nixon administration’s government-sponsored crimes would let out of the bag Kennedy- era sanctioned murders carried out in the name of national security...
Like I said, he’s a nutter.

I just listened to Boortz’s interview with Jerry Zeifman, we get him starting at 6pm and I was working. What a compelling interview. I remember reading about this a few years back too and posted it in my blog, of course this is when the witch was running for senate.
Too cowardly to anser, huh? That kinda puts you in the dick head category, doesn't it?
Now why don't you try contributing some decent discussion to the thread, or go back and play in your sandbox?
Is that all you got out of the article?
You again Martha. and up yours.
Look, queer boy/girl/whatever, go on over in the corner and play with yourself — noone else is interested in you childishly filthy trash mouth.
A side splitting laugh moron.
You queers have a rather odd sense of humor.
No, I already commented elsewhere.
