(Washington, D.C., March 31, 2009). Freedom Watch, the public interest watchdog founded by Larry Klayman after his 2004 U.S. Senate run, and the protector of civil liberties and freedom, has again asked Judge Royce Lamberth to permit the deposition of Hillary Clinton to go forward, particularly since Mrs. Clinton wants, as usual, to skate out of the lawsuit which landed her in trouble during her husband’s former presidency.
As the country may remember, one of the Clintons’ techniques at keeping adversaries at bay, was to illegally gather confidential and classified FBI files to use against these persons if they ever challenged the Clintons’ behavior in the White House. Caught with their hands in the proverbial “cookie jar” when the House Government Reform Committee was investigating Travelgate, another one of the Clinton capers to hire their friends for the White House travel office (with likely kickbacks to them involved), I filed a class action lawsuit in D.C. federal court against Mrs. Clinton, the FBI and others to address this violation of privacy.
The case moved quickly in the 1990’s, but Judge Lamberth seems to have lost interest when George W. Bush was elected in 2000 and the case has now has been around for over 12 years.
Judge Lamberth, a fine jurist, is, like many federal judges, subjectively influenced by events in Washington, D.C. Mrs. Clinton, thanks to the dismal if not catastrophic performance of “W” and Cheney, has been politically rehabilitated and is now worshipped as a “Goddess” of womanhood and political strength. As a result, now, as the globe trotting Secretary of State under the Obama regime, she wants out of the Filegate case, but Freedom Watch challenged Judge Lamberth to finally do his duty under the Rule of Law and allow the video deposition of Hillary Clinton to go forward. No defendant can be removed from a case without having to give testimony. Even Bill Clinton, while president, was ordered by the U.S. Supreme Court to be deposed. And, Mrs. Clinton is no queen, but instead “citizen Clinton.”
“We are confident that Judge Lamberth will now have to finally order the deposition. Mrs. Clinton is not above the law, no matter how much she and her henchmen, who many attributed to some deaths of key witnesses during the Clinton administration’s scandalous years in the White House, may intimidate this great jurist. Justice must be finally done,” stated Larry Klayman, Chairman of Freedom Watch.
