Cracks In The Dam?
There's an interesting little item in the Village Voice about questions concerning Cliff Baxter's demise. He was the Enron executive who ostensibly committed suicide, but according to this report, he was talking about hiring a body guard shortly before his death--a behavior more consistent with later homicide than suicide.
But what I found most interesting were these words:
Those who doubt the official line think he's another Vince Foster, murdered in cold blood to stop him from spilling the beans on Enron chief Ken Lay and blowing open the whole scam?offshore accounts, political connections, and all.
The title of the piece contains Foster's name as well. He says it as though it's established fact that Foster was murdered. Gee, while the Village Voice is hardly mainstream media, I thought that it was only "right-wing nuts" who have suspicions about the circumstances of Mr. Foster's strange departure from this world.
Now that Mr. Starr has long departed from the prosecutorial scene, Mr. Ray has submitted his final report, and the Clinton's have been out of office and power for over a year, I wonder if we're going to start to see cracks appear in the official story on Foster?
If either Clinton, or even a Clinton or Rodham relative get indicted and/or convicted for the pardon mess, we may see the floodgates start to burst here.
