Absolute power

the legacy of corruption in the Clinton-Reno Justice Department

Edición de la obra Absolute Power

"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."--BOOK JACKET.
