I wonder what kind of goods the Clinton gang had on Robert Ray? He sure was a big disappointment. I'm glad Barbara called him on his weakness. I wonder if Ray ever worked with Ted Olsen?

After Bush took Office, Jon Turley said ''no lawyer will prosecute clinton because no one wants to be the next Ken Starr''
When Bob Ray accepted the job, he was willing to be the next Ken Starr
He said ''I know they'll put me thru everything Starr was put thru, but the principle 'No man is above the Law is worth it'''
He said ''my dad was in Vietnam and told me what went on there -- whatever they do to me, it can't be as bad as that''

He had been planning to Indict slick a month after he was out of Office
and just before the election, he said ''a lot hinges on the election''
(I was already campaigning unceasingly for George, after Ray said that, I campaigned unceasingly for GOP Congress -- so Ray would have the backing he needed)

However, the instant Gore conceded for real, and George was President-elect, GOP leadership was all over TV telling George to Pardon slick
and I bet behind the scenes the power brokers of GOP were pressuring Ray to deal -- to give George a fresh start for his administration
When Ray realized no Democrat and no Republican wanted him to prosecute slick -- he no longer wanted to continue

The principle that ''no man is above the Law'' is dead
It was courageous and trustworthy for the GOPers (and the 5 Democrats in the House) to vote to Impeach and Remove slick when he was in power
Our Republic would not have been saved without it
But we would have arrived at a new glorious level -- if the GOP had put principle first when George was in power
Love, Palo
