It's a fact that the Clintons have a pretty lengthy list of shady dealings, questionable executive orders, criminal associations, etc.

I wanted to learn more about them. This doesn't include Monica. Yes Bill lied under oath, but I am talking about the kind of stories that get buried.

I am not interested in right wing or left wing wise cracks, Clinton apologists, and so on. I just want good FACTS.

Include executive orders, shady business dealings, no-bid contracts, pardons, suspicious deaths, campaign funding, etc.

I welcome your objective answers. Thanks.

Fact: Bill Clinton is THE MOST INVESTIGATED PRESIDENT OF THE U.S. EVER!!! If you want the "down and dirty" ,then read Ken Starr's XXX rated piece of trash and pornography at the local library in history or politics. Bill is no angel, but the worst thing the GOP could find after 6 years and 50 million of political scandal manufacturing, was a BJ. OMG. Therefore, by inductive reasoning, he is verfiably, the most innocent president in history. The impeachment is an ulser on our congress that turned into a full blown mouth cancer when they gave W a fast track ability.

OK, back to Bill. He vetoed good things that needed to be vetoed... so look those up. He also backed the 1997 Telecommunications Act which further "privitized" or something like that so that the tele-communications power was further concentrated in a few companies.Some say it put the power of all of our television, radio, advertising on billboards, & 90% of all the news you get in the hands of about 5 people. He also began the NAFTA crap that further outsourced foreign labor to the US and sent the majority of the jobs somewhere else. Nixon started it, and they all continued the corporate march right over the lives and jobs of most working class citizens. Thanks alot Uncle Sam. All the other crap they say about Clinton, was investigated ad nasueaum (sp?) and none of it was even mentioned in the Starr Report because THERE WAS NOTHING TO IT. If that is not enough for you to know that the guys on TV and everywhere are making up LIES .... swiftboats, uranium in Niger, greet us as liberators, war won't last 6 months, need I go on???

GOPers (repugna-cans) LIE STRAIGHT TO YOUR FACE and then deny it later. It is amazing to watch. Do you realize that at least 2 of the 9 federal prosecutors were actively investigating fraud and corruption in the Bush administration and did you know that Abramoff (#1 lobbyist to the congress)and Libby (Chaney's right hand man) have already been flushed down the commode (put in jail) like what they are??
But all you hear on TV is that it's OK, all is well. Like little boys that got caught with their hands in the cookie jars and they are so young, they don't think you know the truth!!!! Good luck on finding the "truth", because the main objective of propaganda is to "confuse" or "divide everyone" so that the truth cannot be decided. That keeps action at bay and the status quo just like this corporate owned country wants it.
And you are asking about Clinton's shady business dealings??? You start off with a lie also by saying 'It's a fact that...". You are most likely very mislead by our bought and paid for news media or else you too are a GOP shill. Hopefully, this comment will get people thinking critically, so they will understand how to get past the lies and see the truth of the propaganda that you promote by the way you ask your question. Same thing that goes on with the radio, TV and now the internet. God Bless the USA. "All the truth in world adds up to one big lie" - Bob Dylan "If you love me, you will obey what I command. (love one another) and the father will give you another Counselor to be with you forever - THE SPIRIT OF TRUTH. The world cannot accept him, because it neither sees him nor knows him (the truth = the counselor) = Bible John 14:15-17.

guy, are you able to twist a deceive make it sound like the truth or what? Clinton did a wholesale termination with the intention to take suspicion faraway from his firing of the U. S. criminal professional in Arkansas who replaced into investigating him, and Hillary, for his or her involvement in White Water and his misuse of the State Police stress at the same time as governor. added, it replaced into to hearth the U. S. criminal professional who replaced into decrease than 30 days from indicting Dan Rostenkowski, a congressional democrat. you ought to also have neglected the undeniable truth that even the fired US legal professionals admit they 'serve on the exhilaration of the President and could be fired, with or with out reason, at any time, for any reason". Why do not you libs take a breather... CNN is even now reporting proper dems in congress as admitting "no criminal wrongdoing is suspected in this count number".... Its a PR stunt!

If no "facts" have surfaced by now -after all the years of "digging" the Concervatives have done to incriminate them- I think it shows there are none to be found. If you REALLY want to hit "pay dirt" -start "sniffing" around the Bush Administration... -THAT stench is going to be with us for a long...-time. :)

The only thing that was found wrong was that he lied about a clandestine affair. In my day it was considered chivalrous to NOT kiss and tell. He hurt only his family. No one died.

When Bush lied thousands died.

Ike Clanton's notoriety is based largely on his conflict with the Earp brothers, especially Wyatt Earp and Wyatt's friend Doc Holliday. The Earps and the Clantons had several political, economic, and philosophical reasons to hate each other, and the animosity grew throughout 1881. Helping to fuel this conflict was Ike Clanton's reputation as loudly boasting in public, drinking heavily, and having a quick temper. He was well known for talking too much.

In November 1879, shortly after arriving in Tombstone, Wyatt Earp had a horse stolen. More than a year later, probably sometime in December 1880, Wyatt was told the horse was being used near Charleson, and Wyatt and Holliday were forced to ride to the Clanton's ranch near Charleston to await ownership papers in order to legally recover it. According to Wyatt's testimony later, 18 year-old Billy Clanton asked him insolently if he had any more horses to "lose," but he gave the horse up without first being shown the ownership papers, demonstrating to Wyatt that Billy knew to whom the horse belonged. Sheriff Johnny Behan later testified that the incident had angered Ike Clanton. It also angered Wyatt Earp.

In October 1880, outlaw and gunman William Brocius, known as "Curly Bill" and a member of the Cow-boys, was arrested for the murder of Tombstone marshall Fred White. Wyatt Earp had arrested him, further fueling hostilities between the Clanton and Earp factions. Later, when Brocius was found not guilty, the tensions intensified.

In March 1881, a bungled stagecoach robbery near Benson, Arizona, that resulted in the killing of two men on the stage divided the two factions, with the Earps believing the Cow-boys were involved, but with Ike Clanton later publicly claiming Doc Holliday was one of the robbers and that Holliday had fired the shot that killed the stage driver. Wyatt testifed that both Frank McLaury and Ike Clanton had agreed to provide information on the capture of the three supposed robbers, named Leonard, Head, and Crane. Later, after the last of these men had died in separate incidents, Wyatt claimed that word of this secret deal began leaking out. Ike Clanton, in contrast, claimed that word of Doc Holliday's involvement, as well as the rest of the Earps' involvement in the robbery, was what was beginning to leak out.

In July 1881, "Curly Bill" Brocius and gunfighter Johnny Ringo were said to have gone to Hauchita, New Mexico to kill two brothers, William and Isaac Haslett, in revenge for the deaths of Clanton Cow-boy members Bill Leonard and Harry Head, who had attempted to rob the Haslett brothers' general store weeks earlier. Later, also in July, Brocius led an ambush attacking a Mexican trail herd in the San Luis Pass, killing six vaqueros and torturing the remaining eight men. All of these combined events fueled the reputation of the Cow-boy gang and added to the tensions around the town of Tombstone.

"Old Man" Clanton was the leader of the group since their base of operation was on his ranch, but he was killed in the Guadalupe Canyon Massacre in August 1881, probably by Mexicans in retaliation for an earlier ambush committed by rustlers associated with the Clanton's. Following Old Man Clanton's death, Curly Bill took over as the new leader of the Cow-boys. However, the Cow-boys faction was not a close knit group, and even when Old Man Clanton was alive, acts of violence, rustling or robbery were not usually committed as an organized plan but in a random manner. Old Man Clanton, as later discovered, was never the leader in the sense that he organized crimes. He simply operated his ranch and allowed the Cow-boys to live and work there. Although history has often portrayed the Cow-boys as being ruthless and the town of Tombstone living in fear of them, this was not the case. In fact, with the exception of Ike Clanton who was widely disliked because of his boasting, most of the Cow-boys were seen as harmless or merely a small nuisance. They also, generally, got along quite well with the town marshal, Fred White, who was respected and well liked by most of the Cow-boys, despite later film portrayals, and much to this credit, they rarely committed crimes inside the town limits, and usually when White was forced to arrest Cow-boys he had the support of other members of the gang in doing so, to include Brocius, who liked White.
