Judges: Flowers Can Sue Hillary
KARK-TV ^ | 11-13-02 | Unknown

Posted on 11/18/2002 2:55:49 AM PST by PeaceBeWithYou

A federal appeals panel has revived Gennifer Flowers's defamation suit accusing Hillary Rodham Clinton of masterminding a campaign to discredit her claim of an affair with Bill Clinton.

The panel ruled 3-0 that Flowers could try to prove the former first lady, now a senator from New York, conspired against her with two presidential aides, George Stephanopoulos and James Carville.

Still, the court said Flowers faces an uphill battle and must convince a Nevada judge there is evidence of a conspiracy before the case could proceed to a jury.

The controversy dates to 1992, when a supermarket tabloid wrote that Bill Clinton and Flowers had an affair while he was Arkansas governor.

Bill Clinton denied the accusations, so Flowers held a news conference to play audio tapes she said were of secretly recorded intimate phone calls between them.

They've drug this on so long, will the statute of limitations hinder Flowers' cause?

In Arkansas, in cases of libel, slander, etc. the suit must be filed within 3 years of the occurance(s). However, I think this case was filed in Nevada in a Federal court, so all that may be different.

How much money from Hitlery's book deal do you think Ginny can wrestle away from the slimmy X-first lady?

It would be interesting to see Hillary's answers in the deposition if it ever gets that far.

Right! I can hear it now - "There's no record of me doing that."

Of a truth the American people are ill- served by their "elected rulers" from the top to the bottom.

Filthiness and foulness are rife in all areas of our Socialist government as a result of our(we the people)willing acceptance of the governance by the corrupt Clintons and their enablers.

The stench in the nostrils of Americans of their continuing presence and influence will be in our experience for decades to come.

I have no recollection of such a statement.
