Hey you mentioned all those hearings I remember watching live on C-Span the Senate Whitewater hearings run by Al Damato (R-NY). Richard Ben-Veniste was lead counsel for the Dems. Good old Senator Al started to ask a witness about Mena and drugs and Ben-Veniste pipes in with a line like this "The Senator should remember that I was the lawyer for Barry Seal. I don't think that you want to start questioning who did what in this case as it includes Republicans and Bush " Al shut right up and changed the subject. I saw it happen. Can't give it an exact quote but I 'll never forget the event. Of course anyone who thinks anything happened there is a conspiracy nut. Leason: company men will always protect the company.

I must admit the name Veniste and the topic Arkansas flu have crossed my mind a few times. Nuff said.
