Some of you may find this of interest. Perhaps not. Either way here it is.
The actual list is way to long, so check the link, below are a few examples from his appointees.
I post this just to show that the "wheels" did not fall off of Clinton's bus, just as they are not falling off of Bush's. When you are President you will always have people around who will make errors or people who are dishonest.

LIST OF ALLEGED CRIMES IN THE CLINTON ADMINISTRATION
June 24, 1996
For several years, the Washington Weekly has published a compiled list of alleged crimes in the Clinton administration. Current events quickly make the list incomplete, necessitating updates. The list, now including 33 Clinton appointees, is by no means exhaustive, but does include activities before taking office.
BERNARD NUSSBAUM, Former White House Counsel
(1) Obstructed justice in the Foster suicide investigation by
blocking access, removing documents, lying about his removal of
documents, and by retrieving Foster's pager from Park Police.
(2) Attempted to quash a Whitewater investigation at the RTC
through White House liaisons.
Nussbaum has resigned and is under investigation for lying to Congress.
GEORGE STEPHANOPOULOS, Senior Advisor
(1) Took a $600,000 loan below market interest and with
insufficient collateral from Nations Bank, a bank having business
before the Clinton Administration.
(2) Lied to Congress during Whitewater hearings.
(3) Attempted to have Whitewater investigator Jay Stephens at the
RTC fired.
MIKE ESPY, Former Agriculture Secretary
(1) Took bribes from Tyson Foods Inc., which was under regulatory
control of his Agriculture Department.
Espy has resigned and is under investigation by a Special Counsel
ROGER ALTMAN, Deputy Secretary of the Treasury
(1) Lied to Congress during Whitewater hearings. (2) Lied to Congress about having lied to Congress. (3) Instructed Ellen Kulka and Jack Ryan at the RTC to block the Whitewater investigation by L. Jean Lewis. Roger Altman was forced to resign.
RON BROWN, Former Commerce Secretary
(1) Has taken bribes from almost everybody. Says it is part of
the way Washington works. The allegations are too numerous
and complicated to be detailed here.
Ron Brown was still under investigation by an Independent Counsel when he died in a plane crash in 1996. The investigation continues.
LES ASPIN, Former Secretary of Defense
(1) Through criminal negligence was responsible for the death
of Army Rangers in Somalia. Has never been held accountable
in public hearings.

WILLIAM KENNEDY, DAVID WATKINS, PATSY THOMASSON:
(1) Fabricated charges against White House Travel Office
personnel to have the business taken over by Clinton friends.
(2) Coerced FBI and IRS agents into complicity with this
scheme.
Kennedy and Watkins have resigned.
CATHERINE CORNELIUS, Travel Office employee
(1) Removed documents from White House Travel Office.
Because those documents later became the subject ofa trial
against Office Director Billy Dale, that could amount to
obstruction ofjustice.

(1) Lied to Congress about the composition of the Health Care Task Force and the size of its budget. (2) Obstructed justice when she removed documents from the office of Vince Foster.
MARGARET WILLIAMS, Chief of Staff to the First Lady

of Vince Foster.

1990, he signed withdrawals from Peny County Bank, the president
of which has pled guilty to conspiring to conceal these
withdrawals from the IRS and FEC.

(1) Was seen carrying a box from Foster's office the morning

Clinton's political enemies, a violation of the privacy act.
In light of this record, it is appropriate to mention those Clinton Cabinet Secretaries who are not under investigation and have never had criminal allegations raised against them:
RICHARD RILEY, Secretary of Education
WARREN CHRISTOPHER, Secretary of State
In this administration these secretaries must be considered beacons of morality.
