Keywords For Bill Clinton: Employment, Enron, Ethics, Exonerated, Prosperity



BACKGROUND: Bill had his problems, but the bottom line is that we had 8 solid years of peace and prosperity. God help us now!


AMMO

(Employment, Prosperity)

FACT: During Clinton's stay in the White House, over 23 million jobs were created and this country experienced a profound period of peace and prosperity. So far, in the Bush administration, over 2 million jobs have been lost. We are in a non-declared perma-war. The stock markets have gotten crushed. Enron and their like are crashing from corruption, destroying an untold number of family's in their wakes all while the executives leave with hundreds of millions of dollars in compensation. 


(Exonerated)

FACT: The eight-year, nearly $80 million investigation has yielded no indictments on the Lewinsky matter. No indictments on Whitewater. No indictments on the travel office. No indictments on the FBI files. No indictments on the Vince Foster suicide. No indictments all up and down the line. 


(Ethics)

FACT: Do you know how many Reagan administration officials were convicted -- not just indicted, but convicted -- of crimes while, for conduct while they were in office? Thirty. Do you know how many Clinton Administration officials were? One. The Chief of Staff of the Secretary of Agriculture, in a case that involved football tickets. One person.  After eight years and seven independent counsels, dozens of congressional committees, scores of right-wing lawsuits, tens of thousands of investigative journalist pieces -- one person. And that, the Chief of Staff of the Secretary of Agriculture.


(Enron)

FACT: The Chicago Tribune, attempting to tie the Clinton to the Enron debacle as the Bush Administration has been, published a story claiming that, "Lay was no stranger to the Clinton White House, playing golf with the president and staying overnight in the Lincoln Bedroom." This is a complete lie. Ken Lay never stayed in the Lincoln Bedroom while Bill Clinton was president - although he has stayed there before, courrtesy of George Bush Sr. This little truth overturns the major "connection" between the Democrats and Enron in the GOP's attempt to convince people that Enron treated both parties equally.  In addition, Enron donated significantly more money to the Republican party - and to George W. Bush in particular - than they did to the Democratic party. Also, Newsweek reported that the bankrupt company routed more than $50,000 through Americans for Tax to a group called the 21st Century Energy Project. This group, headed by close friend of the Bush administration and conservative lobbyist Ed Gillespie, proceeded to run ads attacking the Democratic party.
