The Clinton Record On Corruption
The media has always been kind to the Clintons. Their ability to not report certain things, or to find other stories to take attention away always made me wonder if the 'mainstream media' was actually unbiased.
Here are some of the records set during the Clinton administration that most in the media won't report:
Records Set
- The only president ever impeached on grounds of personal malfeasance
- Most number of convictions and guilty pleas by friends and associates*
- Most number of cabinet officials to come under criminal investigation
- Most number of witnesses to flee country or refuse to testify
- Most number of witnesses to die suddenly
- First president sued for sexual harassment.
- First president accused of rape.
- First first lady to come under criminal investigation
- Largest criminal plea agreement in an illegal campaign contribution case
- First president to establish a legal defense fund.
- First president to be held in contempt of court
- Greatest amount of illegal campaign contributions
- Greatest amount of illegal campaign contributions from abroad
- First president disbarred from the US Supreme Court and a state court
Crime Stats
- Number of individuals and businesses associated with the Clinton machine who have been convicted of or pleaded guilty to crimes: 47
- Number of these convictions during Clinton's presidency: 33
- Number of indictments/misdemeanor charges: 61
- Number of congressional witnesses who have pleaded the Fifth Amendment, fled the country to avoid testifying, or (in the case of foreign witnesses) refused to be interviewed: 122
Campaign Finance Investigation
- As of June 2000, the Justice Department listed 25 people indicted and 19 convicted because of the 1996 Clinton-Gore fundraising scandals.
- According to the House Committee on Government Reform in September 2000, 79 House and Senate witnesses asserted the Fifth Amendment in the course of investigations into Gore's last fundraising campaign.
-James Riady entered a plea agreement to pay an $8.5 million fine for campaign finance crimes. This was a record under campaign finance laws.

Whether you like it or not, she's the next prez. It was decided years ago. America has been ruled by the Bush/Clinton dynasty for almost 30 years and Hillary is next in line for Orwellian power. I bet you didn't know that side of me did ya? ;)
well We sure as hell don't elect the prez. That was proven 8 yrs ago. If never before. The Bush's make me wanna hurl, but living here not 30 minutes from his ranch.. it's not a good thing to express your views. Hated his dad too.
What ever side my friend I love you.
I wish Blood and I were still friends even if he did dump me twice! LOL!!
and I miss Evil. I wish people would play the game because it's fun. They make such work out of it. I shall post a post later with my views on that.
hey check your mail over at Guild Portal.
Here in England most of us want to see Hillary in The White House. She is intelligent and far-seeing and okay maybe has some skeletons in her closet but all politicians are slightly corrupt. Here "McCain" is a brand of oven chips (you call them fries) and the guy is obviously too old for leading the most powerful nation on our planet.
Skeleton's are one thing my friend Pudding, but murder is another. She may be far seeing, but then so was Hitler.
