Hey...Hey....don’t use my name in vain!!

I wonder if there is a list of Cliinton scandals-—I mean up to date of course.

I don't understand how clinton is still alive.

How is it that this girl, now a grown woman, men folk and kin have never retaliated?

I didn’t bother to read the article or the comments on this thread.

The reason I didn’t is because I know one fact.

That is the American people are fed up with one set of rules for them and another set of rules for the ruling self appointed “elite”. That explains the rise of Trump and even the popularity of Bernie Sanders on the left. People have just had it.

It was the first big case in which she showed poor judgment, a cool willingness to mislead, and a level of political aggression that gave even those around her pause.

Actually, that would be Watergate, not Travelgate. But the trip down memory lane was interesting.

After seeing your post, I just spent fifteen minutes reading the ‘reviews’ there - hilarious! I liked the one who gave the book five stars for inspiring so many great reviews.

she had been dismissed from the Watergate legal team for a lack of ethics.

I can be a stickler for details sometimes, but you combine two separate events into one, as many do regarding her role on the Watergate committee.

True - She displayed a complete lack of ethics and was even considered to be reported to the Bar for her behavior.

False - She was not 'terminated' for this behavior. She was terminated because Nixon resigned and the committee's work was over. All temporary hirings were terminated at the same time.

Bill & Hillary Clinton are the Velcro Couple. Everything sticks to them. But no one does anything about it.

The first time the FBI rolled over for Hillary. They were owned after that.

[tired&retired]

without a happy ending; turns out I needed to read Bill’s book for that.

Thanks Lexington Green. I needed a laugh.. You provided quite a few!!!

maybe her earliest, and biggest lie, is to Bubba about how her pregnancy came about and by whom.

the soul of an East German border guard.

This is not apt. The boarder guard is just another working stiff wanting his beer after his shift. She showed them all the soul of a STASI agent, and she still shows her shrivelled STASI soul today.

Her first scandal was Watergate, she was fired for being unethical,dishonest,and a Crook.

[Shanghai Dan]

For the Clintons, a scandal day keeps the prosecutor at bay!

[RonnG]

“Her first scandal was Watergate, she was fired for being unethical,dishonest,and a Crook.”

And fired by her Democrat boss on the House Committee to impeach Nixon. That’s karma

[Rembrandt]

“She was terminated because Nixon resigned and the committee’s work was over.”

I’ve never heard your version of this before. I’ve always heard she was guilty of over zealousnesss. I think I will stay with the versions I’ve heard before and dismiss yours as “what a Democrat would say.”

Don't take my word for it, take Jerry Zeifman's word:

In 1999, nine years before the Calabrese interview, Zeifman told the Scripps-Howard news agency: “If I had the power to fire her, I would have fired her.” In a 2008 interview on “The Neal Boortz Show,” Zeifman was asked directly whether he fired her. His answer: “Well, let me put it this way. I terminated her, along with some other staff members who were — we no longer needed, and advised her that I would not — could not recommend her for any further positions.”
