If there ever was a vast right wing conspiracy, this much is now clear: it certainly never included President Bush - whose Justice Department is now defending New York Sen. Hillary Clinton in a lawsuit brought by Clinton White House whistleblower Sheryll Hall and Judicial Watch.
Over their objections, "the Bush Justice Department represents Hillary Clinton in this lawsuit free of charge, saying that it is in its 'discretion' to represent private parties," the legal watchdog group said in a press release Wednesday.
Hall was the White House computer expert who alleged that Mrs. Clinton was part of a conspiracy to force her out of her job after she told investigators about a data base compiled on the former first lady's instructions that illegally used White House social lists for Democratic Party fund-raising.
Hall also exposed the White House e-mail scandal, where millions of subpoenaed e-mails on some of the most serious Clinton scandals were withheld from investigators.
But despite her heroic efforts to expose Clinton White House wrongdoing, Justice Department lawyers were arguing against Hall yesterday - and instead for Hillary Clinton, a sight that was nearly too much to take for Judicial Watch Chairman Larry Klayman.
"I had to shake my head in wonderment at the sight of the Bush Justice Department working hand in hand with the DNC to defend the Hillary Clinton-led conspiracy to use the White House computer systems for illegal fund-raising," he complained.
"Rather than improperly giving Hillary Clinton free legal representation in this private lawsuit, the Bush Justice Department ought to be prosecuting her for this illegal database and retaliation."
Don't you mean Ms Hall believes she was retaliated against ? Isn't that what the court will decide... if, indeed, she was retaliated against ?

The Screw Party system knows how to protect itself. With each passing day I see less and less difference between the 2 parties.
What do you mean "now"? Bubba-2 has been covering for Bubba-1 and Bubbette! ever since day 1,and the suppressed reports of the WH being trashed by the Dims leaving. Months ago he blocked investigations into voter fraud and pardon selling by the previous Bubba's.
See your new Bubba? He's the same as your old Bubba.
What I can't get over are the people who blindly follow Bubba-2 and who are willing to make any excuse for anything he does. Face it,so far he has been to the left of Bubba-1 on everything he has done. He's created new bureaucracies,spent more on public education that even the Dims wanted,created the so-called Patriot's Act,as well as the "Office of Reich Security". He has further stated that he will sign anti-gun legislation if Congress sends it to him,and that he wants to make "instant citizens" out of 3 million illegal Mexican aliens.
We would have been far better off if Goober had won the election.
