probably the most solid under Ronald Reagan was Wedtech. there were a lot of convictions of members of the administration on that one. the most sordid, as was proved on Sept.11 was Iran/Contra- we caught a pretty good case of blowback on that one. we may have heard about felonies under Klintoon, but the fact remains that in the United States, without proof, crimes don't exist. And I wouldn't have itany other way. would you?

It is simply not true that the crimes don't exist. What is true is that we will not hold an accused criminally liable and jug the bastard unless the proof which can be brought forward and introduced into evidence is sufficient.

The standard for civil liability, as OJ Simpson has discovered, is must lower, a preponderance of the evidence.

The most galling thing about Slick and his minions is that they openly and overtly lied, destroyed evidence and intimidated witnesses with threats of, and actual, governmental assault such as IRS audits. AND THEY GOT AWAY WITH IT!

Don't try to even suggest that the Clintons are not criminals -- they are just extraordinarily successful criminals. That does not earn them any more respect. They are scum.

Sorry, your logic is flawed. We have evidence that a crime took place. The proof is needed to convict someone of that crime. A dead body is evidence that a crime took place, even if nobody is ever convicted.

You seem to be working on a new klintonian mantra, to go along with "you will find no evidence". I find it interesting that every accusation of wrongdoing against the klinton krime kartel was answered with "you will find no evidence", rather than "I didn't do it".
