Hillary Clinton will be asking the questions concerning "document destruction", as she has more experience than anyone in the District of Criminals. Ted Kennedy will be there to make sure everyone has enough water.

"The shredding machines at the Rose Law Firm ran day and night for two weeks as the Whitewatergate investigation got under way...missing documents don't prove a thing..."

Spokesmen for the firm say it began shredding to protect confidential client information during the 1992 primary campaigns, when reporters were discovered rummaging through office garbage. In late January, after special counsel Robert Fiske announced the start of his Whitewater investigation, Hedges and another courier, Clayton Lindsey, say they spent an hour shredding documents plainly marked VWF. The only lawyer at the firm with those initials was Vince W. Foster. At a meeting with managing partner Ronald Clark and others a few weeks later, they were informed that they would have to answer FBI questions and testify before the Whitewater grand jury. Hedges says they were told to tell the truth and "not to do anything to protect the firm." But when Hedges informed senior partner Jerry Jones that he would tell the FBI he had shredded Foster documents, Jones replied, "Don't assume they were his documents." According to Hedges, when he answered in turn that he was certain, Jones told him, "Don't assume that they have anything to do with the investigation."

"I don’t care if you have proof that he raped a woman, stood up and shot her dead, you’re still not going to get 67 votes."

Sadly those aren't the words of Democrats but a (so called) Republican majority in the Senate.

It perhaps best sums up the corruption and condition of the Senate, the government entities, and, the Americans in general, whose ignorance is the sperm of apathy. If you don't know, you can't care. Of course, we're living in a time when George can't be on a wall in the communist incubators called public schools.

When the confiscators start saying they're "deeply troubled", then the backslapping, booze and callgirls will soon be let loose. I wouldn't kid you, either.

I have a copy of a Human Events interview with House Manager Rep. Cannon "How the Senate Fixed the Impeachment "Trial" ...no links just a copy of a FR post from July, 1999... too lengthy and not relevant to post here.
