I always believed that Grand Staircase would one day be the way to put Clinton in jail. The quid-pro-quo was so obvious, coinciding as it did with Lippo sourced contributions. I have been hoping that SOMEONE would be pissed off enough to pursue the matter, and that maybe Leavitt would be that person. One way or another I'm sure that he and Bush have already decided what they will and won't do.

Clinton stalled the legal challenges by enabling the exchange aggreement May 8, 1998. Compromised.

As I remember: Announcing the Escalante Grand Starcase monument, Bill Clinton showed disrespect to Utahns, including Utah leaders (even in the lateness of informing them, not to mention consultation process) and made the announcement in Arizona (Grand Canyon) instead of Utah. Gov. Leavitt was not invited, but Gov. Matheson's widow did attend. The monument status put the stops to the planned development of the coal deposits. It caused quite a stir here to say the least.
