Rep.Cunningham Pleads Guilty to Tax Violations…And Hillary Skates Again
November 30, 2005
Once again, the media and law enforcement contrasts between their dealings with the GOP leadership and the DNC/Clinton leadership, is extremely puzzling. The serial criminal violations by the Clinton DNC leadership that I personally know of, and that I detailed to the Justice Department in six separate proffers in 2001-2002, as well as to various media outlets, remain entirely unaddressed. (The sole exception being the half hearted trial of a Clinton underling, David Rosen, intended to provide a convenient Fall Guy to insulate the Hillary/Bill DNC leadership). There seems to be a law enforcement crack down on the GOP leadership with a complimentary media feeding frenzy on the GOP “culture of corruption in Washington”, as reported by the Associated Press today, while there is an absence of any announced investigations or prosecutions of Democrats for similar or more egregious ethical improprieties:
Rep. Randy “Duke” Cunningham pleaded guilty Monday to conspiracy and tax charges and tearfully resigned from office today… Cunningham was chairman of the House Intelligence subcommittee on terrorism and human intelligence…Cunningham’s pleas came amid a series of GOP scandals. Rep. Tom DeLay of Texas had to step down as majority leader after he was indicted in a campaign finance case; a stock sale by Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist is being looked at by regulators; and Vice President Dick Cheney’s chief of staff was indicted in the CIA leak case.
Ironically, each of the allegations and charges reported against the various leaders of the GOP can be found mirrored in the case I have detailed in Paul v Clinton et al., against Hillary and Bill Clinton and DNC Chair Ed Rendell, in connection with the more than $2 million in contributions they cajoled from me.
