Absolute Power

by David Limbaugh
ebook
Read a sample Read a sample
When Al Gore tried to win the 2000 presidential election in the courts, it was an unprecedented act in American history. But such legal maneuvering was not unprecedented for the Clinton-Gore administration. One of its first acts was to fire every single U.S. attorney, an unmistakable signal that the Justice Department would serve Bill Clinton at the expense of justice.

Bill Clinton and Al Gore consistently saw the courts as a means to achieve political ends. With Janet Reno as attorney general, they gave the United States the most politicized Justice Department we have ever endured. Instead of objectively pursuing justice, America's federal lawyers became tools to give the president and the vice president of the United States absolute power: Power to put themselves above the law. Power to foil investigations by the FBI and the Justice Department. Power to make brute force option number one at Waco. Power to seize Elian Gonzalez at gunpoint and send him back to Fidel Castro. Power to ignore the Senate's role in confirming presidential appointments. Power to financially shake down legal industries like tobacco. Power to ruin the lives of the "little people" who loyally served the White House but didn't fit into the Clintons' plans. Power to subordinate national security to political fund-raising and foreign cash.

With Janet Reno providing legal cover, the Clinton-Gore administration was able to do all this, and more, with impunity. In David Limbaugh's stunning new book, Absolute Power, you will see just how this happened. It is a comprehensive indictment of the Clinton-Reno Justice Department, detailing how federal law was politicized and precedents were set for a legal war against the rule of law and the traditional civil liberties of the United States.

Absolute Power is a testament to what must never be allowed to happen again, and an unsettling reminder of how the most corrupt administration in history has never been called to account -- until now, by David Limbaugh.
