Hillary Clinton’s lawyer is staying very busy
WSJ What don’t David Kendall, the law firm of Williams & Connolly, and clients such as Hillary Rodham Clinton want the public to know?
We’d have thought that question would be on more Washington lips as the report of Independent Counsel David Barrett languishes under seal at the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals. Mr. Barrett is the fellow who began investigating a tax-fraud case involving former Housing and Urban Development Secretary Henry Cisneros but expanded his probe to include alleged abuses by the Clinton Justice Department and IRS.
We agree it’s high time it finished, but this isn’t possible until somebody puts a stop to delaying tactics by lawyers for those named in the report. (Mr. Cisneros himself long ago pleaded guilty, and was pardoned by Bill Clinton in 2001.)
Williams & Connolly–which represents many prominent Democrats, including Mr. Cisneros–had filed more than 190 motions and appeals, one of which alone took 18 months to deal with. Now we are told that yet another secret delay order has been granted by the court. What’s more, Williams & Connolly’s Mr. Kendall–who as far as anyone knows represents not Mr. Cisneros but Mrs. Clinton–has been among those spotted at the courthouse reviewing the IC’s report.
I wonder why Hillary would go to the courthouse herself?

Where does it say Hillary went to the courthouse herself? Not that it would really much matters since she’s a lawyer too.

3-In most cases yes it would be snowy. But this is the Clintons we are talking about. They hire lawyers the way most Americans hire their doctors. They get regular checkups to assure the cancer of another scandal isn’t looming.

The Klintons should just send Sandy Berger to the courthouse to “borrow” the documents.
