My dearest apologies, subs. I didn't realize it was specifically the Vince Foster connection you were saying you've never claimed. Have no fear, because by editing just a few key words in my search we can go with this:

If i recall correctly, it was not merely "political celebrity" that gave the Clinton's wealth...
was not Hillary an attorney involved with the original board of directors for Wal-mart - for 6 years?
oh, wait...Bill was governor then...

maybe they made their real money with Whitewater Development Corp ? or the Mena Arkansas airport operations?

nevertheless, i bet it was actual work getting rid of:

James McDougal
Vince Foster
Mary Mahoney
Paul Tulley
Ed Willey
James Bunch
Suzanne Coleman
Danny Casolaro
Barbara Wise
Richard Winters
Jeff Rhodes

and what about the money saved on dead bodyguards?

Major William S. Barkley Jr.
Captain Scott J. Reynolds
Sgt. Brian Hanley
Sgt. Tim Sabel
Major General William Robertson
Col. William Densberger
Col. Robert Kelly
Spec. Gary Rhodes
Steve Willis
Robert Williams
Conway LeBleu
Todd McKeehan

It's all just fake news, Xenophon. You're trying to confuse us with facts.

Hey, you're the one that replied to him on that thread. If this is all some huge conspiracy to frame him I'm going to have to label you and EA as the key Illuminati figures.

maybe because presuppositions and derailments grow tiresome?
But lets look at some more evidence based reasons one might not return (im sure you will freely impose your own reasons - because masturbation is a preferred posting method among many on this thread).
1. Challenged poster on what they put forth as fact with regards to Trump investigation....quickly turned into a tu quoque fallacy, or the old reliable "oh yeah, well there was one time you said this other thing that I disagreed with....so there!".
2. Then the claim was made by a poster that I believed:
Second Amendment: "Clintons have systematically murdered people to immunize them from legal consequences."
2b: "..that Vince Foster's suicide was an ordered murder."
Naturally, I called for a CFR...to which a poster with ample free time posted several citations of my claims that Clintons were murderers, etc. Hey, seemingly fulfilling the CFR, right?....nope wrong.

Second Amendment: none of the quotes support the claim that there were (1) systematic murders, (2) that the motive was to evade/immunize from legal consequences. In fact, the poster cited references where my mention of motive was the pure and simple "money and power" motives. Yeah, maybe its splitting hairs here but the poster put forward a mighty coiffure.
2b: none of the quotes support the idea that VF's suicide was an ordered murder...a murder sure....but i never excluded the notion that the Clintons (together or separate) murdered VF with their own hand(s). I have a certain notion that they are the type of people not afraid to do their own dirty work, especially in the early days.

so yeah....some reason....but that reason truly not being one of finding the eventual response of "troll" increasingly mundane and unimaginative. I mean, i get it, being challenged to support a deeply seated narrative of one's reality can be uncomfortable and difficult...but hey, there is still no evidence of Trump colluding with Russia...no matter how hard you wish it to be true as you squint your eyes; cross your fingers; and purse your quivering lips with prayer.

But hey, believing Trump colluded with Russia is so real...its like those people who believe Vince Foster's suicide was a Clinton ordered murder.

Great quote, Doc. Absolutely frightening how spot on Sagan is.
