MURDER, BANK FRAUD, DRUGS, AND SEX
By Nicholas A. Guarino
 
[...continued...]
 
                   -+- Short Report -+-
 
On their 1979 income tax, Hillary valued Bill's used undershorts 
-- donated to charity at the end of their action-studded tour of 
duty -- at two dollars a pair.
 
Plainly, we are dealing here with a couple that gives loving 
attention to detail in matters of deductions.
 
As you may recall, however, Clinton has proclaimed over and over 
that he simply "forgot" to deduct the $68,900 he claims he lost 
on Whitewater. Commentators have been mystified by the paradox.
 
But it's no mystery to me. The reason is obvious: Bill didn't 
deduct the $68,900 because he didn't lose a dime on Whitewater, 
and he didn't want to do time for tax fraud. Period.
 
Jim McDougal put up all the money except for $500 -- and Bill 
borrowed even *that*.
 
But weep not for Jim. Not only was he Bill's partner in 
Whitewater, but he owned Madison Guaranty S&L, which was the 
designated milk cow that provided most of the inflated loans. 
Weep instead for the taxpayers -- like you and me -- who picked 
up the $66 million tab when Madison folded.
 
 
           -+- The Paperless Office Is Pioneered -+-
                     by the Rose Law Firm
 
Will Bill and Hillary go to jail for masterminding all the land 
deals that fall under the label *Whitewater*?
 
I expect they will [CN -- Don't bet on it.] -- not because of 
existing documents, but because of the testimony of subpoenaed 
people.
 
The few remaining documents will play a supporting role, but 
frankly, friend, there aren't many left. According to grand jury 
testimony: On February 3, 1994, right after Fiske became special 
counsel for Whitewater, the nice folks at the Rose Law Firm fired 
up their high-speed Ollie-o-Matic paper shredder and ordered 
courier Jeremy Hedges to slice 'n dice his way into the history 
books by destroying twelve (12) cartons full of Whitewater 
documents. As far as anyone knows, Rose now has no more 
Whitewater records than you do.
 
Actually, a lot of the usual documents were never created in the 
first place. For instance, there was no written partnership 
agreement (don't try this at home). No transactions were written 
up, even though Clinton's real estate agent says there were 
$300,000 in sales. No deeds were ever recorded. And if any 
interest was paid on bank loans, the payment checks are missing.
 
Plus, after Whitewater, Bill got very smart and kept his name 
completely out of every subsequent deal he cut. But the 
Whitewater monies, probably several million, ricocheted from 
shell company to shell company like the basketball in a Harlem 
Globetrotters warmup drill, and every dollar wound up in the 
proper pocket. Beneficiaries included many of the biggest names 
in Arkansas -- like Gov. Tucker, Seth Ward, and some very 
powerful executives from outfits like Wal-Mart and Tyson's 
Chicken -- Clinton campaign backers all. (Campaign records for 
1982 and 1984, the two most suspicious years, have also been 
studiously shredded.)
 
And Bill, who entered public office with nothing but debts, and 
who never made over $35,000 a year as governor, is now worth 
about four to five million. A real rags-to-riches, American 
success story, isn't it? Kind of puts a lump in your throat.
 
But there's one other reason for Bill's success. In a word, 
Hillary. Prepare to be shocked as you learn...
 
 
          -+- Why the Feds Settled for $1 Million -+-
                   on $60 Million in Debts
 
You'll find this one hard to believe, so read carefully.
 
  ITEM: When Madison Guaranty folded, it was somewhere between 
  $47 and $68 million in the hole. The tab has settled at $65 
  million.
 
  ITEM: One of the biggest defaults was $600,000 in loans to 
  one of Madison's own directors, Seth Ward, who is the father- 
  in-law of Webb Hubbell. Webb happened to be Hillary's law 
  partner and until April [1994] was the No. 3 man at the 
  Justice Department -- and assigned to investigate Whitewater!
 
  ITEM: When the RTC cleanup crew took over Madison, Hillary 
  had been on retainer to Madison [Guaranty S&L] for many 
  months.
 
 
Got it so far? O.K. Now, the RTC lawsuit sought $60 million from 
Madison Guaranty's debtors. But here's what happened:
 
  1. Hillary negotiated the RTC down *from* *$60* *million* 
     *to* *$1* *million*. What a talker!
 
  2. Hillary then got the RTC to forgive the $600,000 debt Seth 
     Ward owed the RTC -- every penny of it -- thus leaving the 
     RTC with $400,000 [out of the $60 million owed.]
 
  3. But wait! Hillary did these two deeds *as* *the* *counsel* 
     *for* *the* *RTC*, not Madison. Incredible as it sounds to 
     those of us who have to live in the real world, Hillary 
     got herself hired by the RTC, and in *that* position, from 
     the GOVERNMENT side, she talked them down to $1 million.
 
  4. Her fee for the RTC job was (pure coincidence) $400,000. 
     Which left the government with $400,000 minus $400,000... 
     or in technical accounting terms, zippo.
 
  5. And who do you suppose was the mastermind who conned the 
     RTC into hiring Madison Guaranty's own Hillary to 
     prosecute Madison Guaranty? None other than the late Vince 
     Foster! When he made his pitch to the RTC, he neglected to 
     tell them about Hillary's retainer with Madison Guaranty. 
     In fact, he even wrote them a letter stating that the Rose 
     Law Firm didn't represent thrifts!
 
 
Vince and Hillary were, by the way, very, uh, close. Not only 
were they partners at Rose, but there's no shortage of people who 
saw them hugging and smooching in public. Arkansas troopers say 
that when Bill took a trip on state business, Vince was often at 
the mansion gates within minutes -- and would stay till the wee 
hours. They also spent a few weekends together at the Rose 
vacation cabin in the mountains. And when Hillary filed for 
divorce from Bill in 1986, Vince was right there at her side. 
(She withdrew the suit [later on].)
 
 
                -+- 178 Years in Club Fed -+-
 
Nobody ever accused Bill Clinton of being stupid.
 
As proof, look at the Congressional hearings. What a hoot! Bill 
had them stacked so that fully 99% of all Whitewater crimes were 
off limits!
 
This left our dignified Congressmen sternly chasing the remaining 
1% of petty misdemeanors with hardly a mention of fourteen years 
of felonies: shell games, killings, break-ins, coverups, threats, 
bribes, thefts, check kiting, payoffs, arson, money laundering, 
fraud, influence of testimony, tampering with witnesses, you name 
it...
 
And Bill managed to focus 100% of the attention on [Roger] Altman, 
[Bernard] Nussbaum, [Lloyd] Cutler and others, with none of it on 
himself. You have to admit, that's pretty smart maneuvering.
 
In February, *The American Spectator* added up two pages of 
Bill's alleged crimes, and the total potential penalties came to 
$2.5 million in fines and 178 years in prison. And *they* just 
listed the piddly stuff, like tax fraud and soliciting bribes; 
they didn't even mention the heavier incidents I listed above! 
(They did include a short roster of Hillary's much lighter 
penalties, totaling only $1.2 million and 47 years.)
 
Is such punishment excessive? I think not. Even if you ignore the 
mayhem, the Clinton economic damage has been severe. Counting 
Clinton's Arkansas Development Finance Authority, which never 
awarded a bond grant without a major campaign contribution and 
Bill's signature, he sucked over a billion dollars from state and 
federal taxpayers.

Please forgive me for sounding dramatic, but this is a dark day 
for the republic.
 
I apologize for giving you such an avalanche of appalling news. 
God knows, I've tried to keep my tone somewhat light, but I 
realize that you are probably still alarmed.
 
Unfortunately, I must now go on to tell you about the impact all 
this is going to have on your own financial future, and that 
could be the worst news of all -- by far.
 
But unlike all the depressing matters you've just read, there is 
a bright silver lining to it. Yes, I do think it's the darkest 
day for the republic since World War II. [CN -- Guarino goes on 
from here to state that "the troubles ahead" will ironically give 
you a great opportunity to improve your finances. He tells the 
reader to open "the enclosed envelope" which I, unfortunately, do 
not have because I received this pamphlet from someone else.]

Footnote: I [Nicholas A. Guarino] serve notice that I am not 
depressed in the least, and that if anything happens to me, I 
publicly accuse Bill Clinton and his circle of power.

CN -- There ends Mr. Guarino's narrative. For the record, I also 
"serve notice" that I am looking forward to the denouement of the 
Clinton mysteries and therefore if anything happens to me I would 
miss the final curtain -- a circumstance I would much regret.
