Kind of made to order for the "anti-corporate power" candidate.

Then there is Hillary Clinton, formerly known as "front-runner" Hillary Clinton or the "inevitable" candidate Hillary Clinton.
It is painful to watch her trying to act human and it would be even more painful to see the Clintons back in the White House that they disgraced in so many ways.
She might even be shameless enough to put him on the Supreme Court, where he could ruin the law of the land, as many of his own judicial appointees are already doing in the federal courts.
What specifically did HRC do to "disgrace" the WH?
Examples of Clinton judicial appointees "ruining" the law of the land?
I practice in a number of Federal Courts and usually rep the underdog. I haven't noticed any bolshevik bomb-throwers liberally ruling my way or finding novel interpretations of the law to lift the masses. But I hold open the possiblity you have some knowledge greater than my own. Please share it.

Judge Henry H. Kennedy Jr.
Operative words are "do" and "HRC".
"do" is a verb. What did she do?
Nice Punch list of '90's talking points, though.

Number of times Hillary Clinton said that she didn't remember, didn't know, or something similar during investigations.
250
Here's another:
"KnowNothing's brother, Hugh Rodham, secured two of the 141 clinton midnight pardons, one for a cocaine kingpin and the other for a snake-oil swindler. Rodham netted a quick $400,000 for his "work" according to various rodhams and clintons and their assorted lawyers. KnowNothing's campaign treasurer, William Cunningham III, himself a law partner of longtime KnowNothing adviser Harold Ickes, helped obtain last-minute pardons for two convicted felons."
Hugh Rodham's a jerk. He's not running for president.
On Hillary Clinton's conduct, you got nothing.
BTW, if you really think Harold Ickes is a KnowNothing, you are viewing life through an unusual prism.
TYFCB
Ickes claimed to "Know Nothing". I'm sure he's a very smart man. Scooter should have been so smart.
Number of times that Clinton figures who testified in court or before Congress said that they didn't remember, didn't know, or something similar.
Bill Kennedy 116
Harold Ickes 148
Ricki Seidman 160
Bruce Lindsey 161
Bill Burton 191
Mark Gearan 221
Mack McLarty 233
Neil Egglseston 250
Hillary Clinton 250
John Podesta 264
Jennifer O'Connor 343
Dwight Holton 348
Patsy Thomasson 420

If she's claiming experience on all the good things she perceived happened while her husband was pres, then she gets the corruption too.
Gonzo,
3049, and that was before the lunch break.
Silly argument. You think Jennifer O'Connor, just for an example, lied about not knowing stuff?
1337,
I'm pretty sure she didn't put the stain on the all-important dress.
202
Not really, but I think Hillary did.
203
I'm sure she knew and she lied when she claimed it was a vast right wing blah, blah, blah.
Yeah,
RMS and the "Arkansas Project" were just figments of her imagination.
TYFCB
It was neither vast nor a conspiracy as it was openly orchestrated by a few powerful people.
She was saying they were lying about her husband when the evidence shows full well she new about his counseling of Monica's throat.
I don't think you will be arguing with the Hillary hater after New Hampshire Umr.
Throat fixation,
The uncontroverted evidence is that he broke down and told her the truth in August of '99.
Plenty of staffers have written about the events of that week. You don't like Hillary. I get that. No need to make stuff up to take that position.
TYFCB.
You Jesusland types are usually strict constructionists. I've just taken a quick look at every written opinion Judge Kennedy has issued.
Looks to me like he strictly interprets the fourth amendment, the separation of powers and, as a bonus, the Federal FOIA.
What's your problem with his legal reasoning. I do hope you're not relying on Karl Rove's pitiful speech at Central Arkansas U where he said the Judge had held illegal something or other the President had done. The Judge never did any such thing. Judge just directed Shrubbie to comply with a FOIA.
But, it's your story so you tell me how Kennedy has "ruined" the law of the land.
TYFCB
Not trying to change your mind. Your set, good for you. We all want Hillary to win.
