It's deeply troubling that the Bush White House is pressuring GOP
letters in Congress to back down in their investigations and hearings
into President Clinton's pardons, says the Citizens' Investigative
Commission (CIC), a branch of the Council of Volunteer Americans.
"Especially when more evidence surfaces every day that there was a
'quid
pro quo' with [fugitive financier] Marc Rich and dozens of other
felons," points out CIC Executive Officer Scott Lauf.
Who is busy this week distributing bright yellow, Monopolylike "Get Out
of Jail Free" cards to virtually every congressional office on Capitol
Hill, "to serve as a symbolic reminder of Bill Clinton's mocking of the
rule of law and his blatant abuse of his presidential power."
As one can see by today's art feature, rather than Monopoly's Community
Chest cards, these yellow fabrications say: "Clinton Chest: Get Out of
Jail Pardon -- This card valid only if felon pays $$ to Bill & Hillary
Clinton."
