The Boston murder case is the one where the FBI helped gangsters frame a couple of innocent people for a murder. The Clinton/Gore fund-raising crimes have been well documented here on FR. There is no excuse for covering up either. If Clinton did this nobody on this site would be defending the act.
How can we claim the moral high-ground if we support Bush when he does things we condemned when Clinton did them? Supporting Bush when we condemned Clinton for the same thing gives the clintonistas grounds to claim we didn't oppose Clinton because he was wrong. We opposed him because he is a Democrat.
This action is wrong. It is a slap at the rule of law and a slap at congressional oversight and separation of powers. Dan Burton should drag Bush's butt into court and get those documents.
Apparently not.
Dan Burton can't protect the confidentiality of his OWN documents; one of HIS OWN PEOPLE leaked a memo during a critical time during the investigation of Clinton.
Nope. I wouldn't give Burton anything, especially with Waxman looking over his shoulder.
Before rendering any kind of judgement I would want to know exactly what is motivating the Bush Administration here. In Clinton's case we knew exactly what was motivating him because HE was the target of the investigations that he was trying to hide. If it turns out, for example, that the case of the Boston murders has some connections to a prominent Massachussetts family of bloated drunks who happen to hold certain positions in government, then I can understand exactly why this kind of information should not be shared with other branches of government.
