BUSH STATEMENTS CAUSE ASHCROFT TO BACK OFF OF “PARDONGATE”
U.S. Attorney for Southern District of New York Conducting
Questionable Preliminary Inquiry
(Washington, DC) Judicial Watch, the public interest law firm
that investigates and prosecutes government abuse and corruption,
stands virtually alone in its quest to hold Bill and Hillary
Clinton accountable for their serious violations of ethics and
the law.
First, with regard to what has become known as “Pardongate,” the
recent statements of President Bush that Americans should simply
“move on” and not hold the Clintons accountable for their crimes,
has obviously influenced new Attorney General John Ashcroft into
following his boss's lead in taking an ambivalent attitude toward
the Marc Rich bribery/pardon scheme. The New York Times reports
today in an article by David Johnston that:
“. . . President Bush said on Tuesday that he had little
enthusiasm for protracted Congressional inquiries into Mr.
Clinton’s activities, a lack of interest that officials said was
shared by Attorney General John Ashcroft.” Similarly, in an
article today by Robert L. Jackson and Richard A. Serrano, theLos
Angeles Times reports that:
“The decision by Mary Jo White, a Democratic appointee, to
investigate the Rich pardon came just a day after President Bush
criticized congressional reviews of the matter, saying it was
‘time to move on.’
Bush’s remark dampened interest within the Justice Department for
a criminal investigation, said one source familiar with the
matter, which in turn prompted White to act.”
Given Mr. Bush’s lack of support, the recently-announced U.S.
Attorney’s investigation in New York is little more than “window
dressing” and is unlikely to result in much of anything. Even if
it did, the U.S. Attorney, Mary Jo White, is a Clinton appointee
– unlikely to take any real action against the person who
appointed her, Bill Clinton. Indeed, it is incredible that Mary
Jo White has remained as U.S. Attorney under the Bush-Cheney
Administration, and Judicial Watch is sure that former President
Clinton and Senator Hillary Clinton are pleased that Ms. White is
“investigating” the apparent bribery scheme. Obviously, this is
why Mr. Clinton is now “pleased to cooperate.” A special counsel
should be appointed to head a “real” criminal investigation.
Senate Allows Illegal Hillary Clinton Book Deal
On another front today, the Senate Ethics Committee cleared
Hillary Clinton’s $8 million book deal, proving again that
Congressional investigations and inquiries are for show and not
for reality. Judicial Watch is pursuing justice concerning this
and other Clinton bribery schemes
“The American people should not be fooled by the gyrations of
Washington politicians and a Clinton-appointed U.S. Attorney.
While the Washington press corps likes to write stories about
such meaningless gestures – and gives little, if any,
consideration to the actions of the American people, through
Judicial Watch and other concerned citizens groups – the hard and
sad fact is that we are the only ones who are serious about these
matters. Indeed, just yesterday, I was removed as a potential
witness on the Senate Judiciary Panel “investigating Pardongate,”
apparently by Senator Orrin Hatch – who obviously feared Judicial
Watch’s comments and non-political findings concerning the
ongoing pattern of bribery during the Clinton Administration.
Senator Hatch himself was subject to potential investigation over
his role in the BCCI banking scandal during the Reno Justice
Department reign, and has been the lapdog of the Clinton
Administration ever since,” stated Judicial Watch Chairman and
General Counsel Larry Klayman.
