Appellate Court does not remove Hillary from Peter Paul lawsuit on the merits
October 18, 2005
The California Appellate Court in Los Angeles has remanded the Peter Paul civil suit against Hillary Clinton, et al back to the Los Angeles Superior Court. More importantly, the Appellate Court denied David Kendall’s motion to strike on the merits and remove her as a defendant.
Paul’s motion to bring David Rosen back in as a defendant was denied. Rosen will only be a witness in the civil case. Perhaps this time he will tell the truth.

Senator Clinton Seeks Way Out of Nettlesome Case
October 17, 2005
A lawyer for Senator Clinton urged a California state appeals court Friday to
give the senator a second chance to end her involvement in a politically nettlesome
lawsuit stemming from a star-studded and star-crossed fund-raising gala for her
2000 Senate bid.
During the hour-long hearing, Mrs. Clinton’s attorney, David Kendall, asked
a three-judge panel to order a lower court to reconsider its denial of the senator’s
motion to dismiss the case under a California law that allows certain suits
involving political campaigns or matters of public controversy to be terminated
at an early stage.
"We respectfully submit that the court was in error here," Mr. Kendall
said.
The lawsuit was originally filed in 2001 by an Internet entrepreneur, Peter
Paul, who alleged that President Clinton reneged on a deal to work for Paul’s
companies, Stan Lee Media and Mondo English, after leaving office. Paul claimed
that as part of the deal, he agreed to provide Mr. Clinton with $10 million
in stock, $5 million in cash, and a $1 million donation to the president’s foundation,
and to pay more than $500,000 to underwrite the costs of a fund-raising concert
for Mrs. Clinton that was held in August 2000.

Lil’ White (House) lie?
October 14, 2005
Hillary Clinton’s Freudian slip was showing yesterday in California when she told talk show host Ellen DeGeneres she’s running for President in 2008, as she reported a record fund-raising haul.
But it was all a misunderstanding - at least the 2008 part, Clinton said.
The comedian stumped Clinton during an interview on “The Ellen DeGeneres Show” discussing the upcoming Senate election.
DeGeneres switched topics midstream and asked, “So you are preparing for 2008?”

Peter Paul’s Disappointment In Washington Post’s Hillary Campaign Fraud Story

Editors of the Washington Post
Re: House of Cards, Washington Post Sunday Magazine, October 9, 2005
I was elated to learn that the Post editors assigned a Pulitzer Prize nominated “investigative” reporter to finally report all the facts surrounding the campaign finance fraud that Hillary Clinton’s Senate campaign committed in 2000. (see www.hillcap.org)
Since I am both the contributor of the more than $1.2 million in unreported contributions at the heart of the criminal charges brought by the Justice Department against Hillary’s finance director David Rosen, and the whistle blower whose civil fraud suit against the Clinton’s led to Rosen’s indictment, I had more than a passing interest in the truth finally being published by a “paper of record”.

U.S. Probes Clinton Senate Campaign
October 6, 2005
The Justice Department is trying to secure the cooperation of an indicted businessman
as it pursues Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton’s 2000 Senate campaign for possible
fundraising violations, according to interviews and documents.
The FBI told a U.S. magistrate in Los Angeles two years ago that it has evidence
Clinton’s campaign deliberately understated its fundraising costs so it would
have more money to spend on elections. Prosecutors contend that businessman
Peter Paul made donations because he
wanted a pardon from President Bill Clinton.
