Kimba Wood? There’s a blast from the past! Wasn’t she the judge who BJ Clinton tried to nominate for the Supreme Court early in his first term but had to withdraw her name when it was revealed she was once a Playboy Bunny in one of Hefner’s clubs? Or was she the other one who had to withdraw when it was discovered she was paying her Hispanic maid under the table with no Social Security taxes being taken out? Old boy really could pick them, huh?

She was Bill Clinton's second nominee for Attorney General but had to drop out...third choice was Janet Reno. Hillary had evidently laid down the law to Bill that the AG had to be a woman.

Curious how a Clintonista just happened to be assigned to a case designed to take down the man who beat Hillary in the election...no recusal.

Kimba Wood was appointed a federal judge by Ronald Reagan.

It was discovered that Woods had an illegal immigrant nanny before it was illegal, and paid the employment taxes. Her nomination was withdrawn after the Clinton administration leaked information about her having been a table dancer in response to discovering that while liberal, she wasn’t a nut.

Zoe Baird, was the one with an illegal any she didn’t pay taxes on.
