10. In the article:
"...she eventually reaped a $60,000 profit."
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-srv/politics/special/whitewater/stories/wwtr940527.htm

This was all part of the right wing witch hunt against the Clinton's. They spent a lot of our taxpayer money following dead ends only to prove there was no there there. They were desperate to find 'something'. What gets me so angry is that the info, the facts are all out there on this administration and it gets ignored.

I'm sure he'll do a completely thorough investigation and get all of his facts straight!

7. Not sure, but she sure made a lot on futures
Bill Clinton's pardon of Marc Rich, a commodities trader, also raised eyebrows
