Kafka Goes to Alabama

The central, daily question of our tiny household.

 

Remember jgmacg, accused men are always the most attractive.

 

Kafka can't go to his right.

 

Fraulein Burstner thinks I'm on fiyah. Frau Grubach, likewise.

Josef K. is drafting off my heat.

 

This may haver been a Capone-like case.

Maybe Siegelman was prosecuted for the wrong thing, I don't know. But he – like most deep South governors of a certain persuasion (and this crosses party lines, no doubt) – was crooked as a walking stick.

 

Where'd Robert Ray come from? THIS Robert Ray?

Even in that, on Whitewater, he disagrees with Ken Starr -- and with the Pillsbury Report, and with Robert Fiske, Starr's predecessor, who got fired because he didn't pursue what Republican senators wanted to pursue -- which found no criminality in the Whitewater affair. Period. Full stop.
The billing records? What exactly was supposed to be in the billing records anyway? Speculate for me, please.
This is what the Ray reports says about HRC "carrying something out of the building.

"could have been" a "rolled-up sheaf" of billing records sometime in July 1995."

Off with her head!
Ray also criticized the Clintons for defending themselves against a whole panoply of discredited charges including those made by live thief David Hale and dead nut Jim McDougal.
And, anyway, what does this posibly have to do with my question about the career-ending beating poor Ken Starr took, not to mention your fundamental surrender iof your duties as a citizen?

 

Ken Starr as an innocent?

Seriously?

 

1. He leaked information like it was going out of style, not exactly in keeping with your depiction of him as a political innocent.

2. His report read like a B-movie porn script.

3. His investigation into a land deal in Arkansas in the 1980s produced a report about the President getting a blow job in Washington in the late 1990s. If he was just a guy doing a job, what was the job?

4. His investigation lead him to cut deals with people just as sleazy or sleazier than anyone the Clintons were in bed -- literally or figuratively -- with.

 

I have read the report. That's how I know, for example, that the three witnesses on the billing records story claimed to have seen HRC carrying a box of what "could have been" a "rolled-up sheaf" of billing records sometime in July 1995. And only two of them said they saw her carrying any papers, and neither of them explained how they would have known what a billing record looked like. But, never mind. I also read the Pillsbury Report, which exonerated the Clintons on Whitewater in July of 1995, and at $3.5 million a mere $67 million less than Starr/Ray on the same topic. I also know that Robert Ray, at the time he was filing his report, was preparing to run for the Senate from New Jersey and that he empaneled ANOTHER grand jury on the Lewinsky case on the day of Al Gore's acceptance speech, which I'm very sure was coincidental. It is also how I conclude that his mantra -- "insufficient available evidence to establish beyond a reasonable doubt" -- are the words of a weasel who can't give it up. Lawrence Walsh at least got indictments on Iran-Contra.
And, since this is the original topic, are you really going to seriously compare the cooperation given by the Clintons to three special prosecutors, three congressional committees, and god alone knows how many depositions to a White House that refuses to answer congressional subpoenas AT ALL? Your Olympian detachment from all the messiness is a mask for smug apathy, as long as we're reading minds here.
