Well, I can’t edit the post now. Plus the website was down for several hours overnight, and I didn’t have much time to work on it and get it posted at the time slot I targeted it for. I compose my articles quickly online and get them posted ASAP. I put my explanatory remarks at the top because more people would complain if they were at the bottom, or if they weren’t included at all. Maybe some professional journalist will come along and do a better job with it in a real publication. That happens occasionally.

I know that your stuff is more entertaining for a general audience. But so far, I’ve been lucky to expose some Clinton scandals of real consequence that seem incredible at first, but were eventually validated in the course of time. I know that I take risks and go out on a limb sometimes, but so far, it’s worked out very well. I have some advantages in having observed the Clintons for several years before they became national figures, I’ve had Bill Clinton in my face a time or two, and I’m personally acquainted with some of their close friends and colleagues, so I have good sources of information. I know of other Clinton scandals that I can’t post about without exposing my sources. On the infrequent occasions where I’ve made an error, I make an effort to acknowledge it and set the record straight. After posting here for over ten years with no serious mishaps, I’m not inclined to change my methods.

I’m confident about my interpretation of the SEC document. I’ve been following the developments closely in this long-running scandal, and there are some other factors that I’m not going to discuss on a public forum. The bottom line is that Bill Clinton’s contract will not be renewed again. He can still earn money by selling books and giving speeches, but he is out of the only private sector corporate employment he’s had in last 26 years. He is effectively fired. He was lucky to get the job at all after his law license was suspended. The suspension is over now, so he may no longer be considered radioactive, but I’m sure there will be plenty more Clinton scandals in the future, and I intend to keep publicizing them when I find them.

And if I’m wrong - in the extremely unlikely event that he gets a new contract at InfoGROUP, I would probably be the first to post that info.

I can appreciate your concerns, but considering the time we’ve both been on this forum, I would have preferred that you contacted me with your concerns through the FR mail system instead of nagging me on a public thread.

I would have preferred that you contacted me with your concerns through the FR mail system instead of nagging me on a public thread.

The reason for the public "nagging" was to prevent someone out there from posting your comments in a blog or article as if they were part of the original story. Remember, quite a few folks check out the FR for material for their own stories. My "nagging" alerted them not to use your comments as if they were part of the original story. Oh, and the reason I noticed this in the first place is that I was about to use it as a source on another blog until I noticed I never saw the opening remarks at that source. One has to be very careful on these things. The left will use any opportunity to discredit conservatives.

From the story, Clinton per se, did nothing wrong, but his pal sure did.

The Clintons knew that they were misusing corporate resources at the expense of the shareholders on their flights to Switzerland, Acapulco, Bill's cruises on the company's megayacht with the all-female crew, etc. And it's unlikely that Bill Clinton brought much business to the company - except for the CNN presidential polling contract, which was obviously intended to help Hillary's campaign more than InfoGROUP.

No hits in google.

I'm shocked.

In mid-July a half a million images of 0bama's alleged birth certificate simply disappeared from google image search.

I use live search now.

I certainly am not disagreeing with you. I was pointing out that the story did not mention any wrong doing.

"The information was learned from a court settlement filed with the SEC and the Court of Chancery in the State of Delaware "

Isn't Biden's son Beau, Attorney General of Delaware?

Live search.

It’s free.

It’s here:

*sigh* It’s Microsoft.

(And they just “improved’ how they present image search results). *double sigh*
