Judicial Watch report formally accepted by House Judiciary Committee

''IT'S NOT JUST SEX, STUPID"

Complements Starr Report and Details Impeachable Offenses in Filegate, Chinagate, IRS-Gate, and Trustgate

Yesterday evening, the Judicial Watch Interim Report, which is 145 pages in length with nearly 4000 pages of supporting evidence and documentation, was entered into the official record of the House Judiciary Committee's Impeachment Hearing. It details impeachable offenses with regard to Clinton scandals which have commonly become known as Filegate, Chinagate, IRS-Gate, and Trustgate, and was compiled from evidence gathered in Judicial Watch's 20 on-going cases concerning the Administration. The Judicial Watch report can also be found on various internet sites, including http://www.JudicialWatch.org.

"No longer can Democrats and other apologists claim that the Clinton scandals only concern sex. A review of the Judicial Watch report, which now has the endorsement of the House Judiciary Committee and complements the Starr report in setting the parameters for the impeachment inquiry, proves that President Clinton must now answer for his conduct concerning the invasion of privacy rights of American citizens, the sale of seats on trade missions and likely breaches of national security, the misuse of the IRS to retaliate against perceived adversaries, and the illegal solicitation and receipt of monies into his legal defense funds, which in the case of Charlie Trie resulted in over $600,000 in Chinese cash being laundered at a time that The White House was passing national security information to Trie.

"In brief, the formal acceptance of the Judicial Watch report by the House Judiciary Committee is recognition that Judicial Watch is a major player in uncovering the full facts about the Clinton scandals. Judicial Watch thanks Congressman Bob Barr for his courageous and patriotic work on the Judiciary Committee, and for his having introduced Judicial Watch's report, without objection, into the Congressional Record," concluded Larry Klayman.
