What a cute effort to diminish the effectiveness of the Ken Starr investigation. There is also a whole list of women who have charged President Clinton with various sexual charges.
The Whitewater convictions. The convictions included:
- Jim Guy Tucker, Clinton’s successor as governor of Arkansas, convicted on three fraud counts and removed from office.
- John Haley, Tucker’s attorney, convicted of tax evasion.
- William J. Marks Sr., Tucker’s business partner, who pleaded guilty to conspiracy to commit fraud.
- Stephen Smith, an aide to Clinton when he was governor, who pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor count of conspiracy to misapply funds. Clinton later pardoned him.
- Webster Hubbell, a Clinton political supporter who was a partner at the Rose Law Firm, where Hillary Clinton worked, and later served as associate attorney general. He pleaded guilty to embezzlement and fraud in connection to phony billing records at the law firm.
- Jim and Susan McDougal. Jim McDougal was a banker and Clinton supporter convicted of 18 felonies who served time in prison until his death in 1998. His wife, also a Clinton supporter, went to prison on multiple fraud convictions. She famously sat in a jail cell for 18 months on a contempt charge, refusing to answer questions from Starr’s team about whether Clinton lied in his testimony during her Whitewater trial. Clinton pardoned her just before leaving office in 2001.
- David Hale, a banker and Clinton supporter who was a key witness in the Whitewater case. He pleaded guilty to defrauding the Small Business Administration in an unrelated case.
Clinton never faced charges related to the land deal, but years later Starr pursued perjury allegations related to the president’s testimony in a sexual harassment suit filed by former Arkansas state worker Paula Jones. Clinton claimed in a deposition that he’d never had sex with White House intern Monica Lewinsky. She kept a stained blue dress that proved otherwise.
The House of Representatives impeached Clinton, but the Senate did not convict him.
Liberals Falsely Claim Ken Starr Probe Got 'Nothing'
