There is a fascinating piece at http://www.politivine.com/... about Hillary’s past. I know that she has a very large skeleton cabinet to be excavated and have long wondered why the media (obsessed with Rezko and Wright) have largely ignored the myriad scandals she has been a part of. This one, though, may get some play.
It seems that Hill got fired back in the day do to some wobbly ethics.
Anyway, read the article

The article in question begins:
Dan Calabrese of the North Star Writers Group has broken an interesting story about Hillary Clinton and her time as a committee staff member during the Watergate investigation.
Jeffery Ziefman, who supervised Sen. Clinton during her time on the committee fired her from the committee and refused a letter of recommendation.
When asked why Hillary Clinton was fired, Ziefman was quoted as saying
"Because she was a liar," Zeifman said in an interview last week. "She was an unethical, dishonest lawyer. She conspired to violate the Constitution, the rules of the House, the rules of the committee and the rules of confidentiality."
Apparently, this was all in an effort to keep E. Howard Hunt from being put on the stand and being cross-examined by the councel to the president.
What I find most interesting about this is that (if this article is to be believed, on which I am agnostic at the moment) Hillary lost this job because she was actually fighting to keep a defendant (Nixon, but still) from having counsel. How anti civil-lib can you get.
Other than that, I think the article can stand on its own.
