The Independent Counsel

In their new book, "The Hunting of the President," Joe Conason and Gene Lyons detail the right wing's machinations to whack Bill and Hillary Clinton, a ten-year campaign that helped trigger the president's mpeachment. Central to this effort was the so-called "Arkansas Project," a dirt-digging effort financed by Richard Mellon Scaife and run by R. Emmett Tyrrell, Jr., editor of the "American Spectator." As this invoice shows, the Project hired former Army spook William T. "Tom" Golden to nose around, a process which led Golden to meet with a source in Ken Starr's office about that Hillary Clinton indictment (TSG's still waiting on that one). Hard to believe the independent counsel crew wasn't so independent after all, huh? And, hey, don't be cheap, buy the book here.(1 page)

Wow, it's nice to see that Tim McVeigh found a prison soulmate in Unabomber Ted Kaczynski.
