Much of what follows is being told for the first time: how the Clintons got into the investment, how the McDougals tried--and failed--to get them out of it, how Hillary all but single-handedly managed the investment after 1986, how she dealt with the banks that lent them money, including negotiating a loan renewal with a bank whose parent company was trying to get her husband to sign legislation it wanted.

...Castle Grande tract because, as a subsidiary of Madison Guaranty, it could hold total investments of no more than 6% of Madison Guaranty's assets. So Madison assigned the right to purchase part of the property to Seth Ward, Webster Hubbell's father-in-law, for $1.15 million.

I strongly hope that the assailant will be apprehended and have lent my support to the police in their attempts to identify him--for example, by seeing to it that notice of an HUPD advisory describing the assailant is presented to all students as they log in to the FAS computer systems.

The 1930s was a decade of ruthless strongmen, in both European politics and Hollywood movies. Gangsters, mesmerizing in their amoral ambition, were the men of the moment; they lent a sick thrill to the front page and entertainment section. This Richard is such a fellow, Hitler as Scarface.
