the Bush Justice Department decided that any criminal charges would not be made public until after last fall's presidential election for fear they would be seen as a politically tainted vendetta by the Bush Administration."

Which is exactly how the MSM would have portrayed it.

The decision to keep the politically awkward indictment under wraps allowed Mr. and Mrs. Clinton to assume high profile roles attacking President Bush on the Iraq war, as well as a whole range of domestic issues, without having to answer questions about their role in Rosen's case.

As if anyone, especiially the MSM would have asked these questions,

While I guess I don't really care - What ever happened to simply disclosing the indictment when it comes down, in the normal course. ANY interference by anyone in the process is wrong, whether it is to rush it or delay it for political or other advantage.

Hopefully, Sandy Burglar will be next............

Aw ... how kind, how clever!

What a blessing it is to have the Liberal Press to blame for such moves.

Reminds me of the time the GOP Senators "split their consciences" and passed the Schumer Amendment 87-13 lest Gore get any good press coverage for breaking what they would have has us believe was gonna be a "tie".

Don't know that I'll stick around to read the comments on this thread. I'm not one who enjoys listening to the abused defend their abusers ... particularly where concerns the enabling of objective "Evil" sorts like the Clintons.

What a pathetic joke.

"Although the 10-page indictment does not indicate whether others, including the Clintons, were suspected of wrongdoing, Justice Department spokesman Bryan Sierra told the Times, "All we can say is that there are no additional subjects at this time."

Hmmmm. Methinks his nickname is Bravo Sierra.

Dang if you do and dang if you don't!!

[TommyDale]

How many people think the DemocRATS would have acted similarly, if the situation had been reversed?

[Excuse_My_Bellicosity]

Unlike the DemonRats, who engaged in a full-court press to taint Bush's election. The got Hollywood to make bogus documentaries, they spun all news events to appear as negative as possible, they engaged in document forgeries, the list goes on and on.... It sure says a lot about both campaigns and their supporters, doesn't it?

At this time???

Kind of makes a person go Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

BRING ON THE POPCORN!

[sofaman]

I'm sure that the Democrats would have handled this with the same discretion. (/sarcasm)

=== former finance chairman David Rosen was actually indicted in 2003, the Bush administration kept it secret till the indictment was unsealed late Friday


Perhaps this is just timed so that the Moral Party's loosening of its own standards in order to wipe the slate clean for Delay won't appear quite so hypocritical.

[COUNTrecount]

Do you think Berger the Burlar is secretly indicted too ?

[F16Fighter]

Though Hillary Clinton's former finance chairman David Rosen was actually indicted in 2003, the Bush administration kept it secret till the indictment was unsealed late Friday, a move that spared the former first couple and the Democratic Party significant embarrassment during the height of the 2004 presidential campaign.

The obvious question:

Why has the President been treating the Clintons with courtesy and kid gloves (or even velvet gloves) after all the back-biting, criticism, and innuendo these two creeps have heaped upon him?

[tjg]

This was a smart political move on the part of the Bush admin. During impeachment, the Clintons effectively turned themselves into martys. Any legal action taken against Hillary will be portrayed as such by her staff, the democrats and the MSM.

Expect similar treatment of Sandy Burger. THere is no political profit for the GOP in pursuing this stuff.

[rodguy911]

Tonken says he handed out checks to "certain pols" that were "illegal". And he personally witnessed a "brown bag" stuffed with cash going "someplace it shouldn't."

Sounds like business as usual for the Clintonistas.

Was Paul the guy that wound up in jail in S.America? Anyone know?

[Arkie2]

There's got to be a liberal spin to this about how Bush manipulated this. I'm waiting to hear it. I'm sure we'll get the talking points on how it's Bush's fault on tomorrows talk shows.

Wow - "Double secret probation" for a whole year ...

as we all know, the clintons wear teflon underwear.

Rush will have a field day with this on Monday.

Anyone notice if it's in the MSM? I never view, nor read, anything from the MSM.
