Despite the Republican rout last month and the unusual scorn he elicits from some people, Bill Clinton is the most admired man in the U.S., according to a new poll. And First Lady Hillary Rodham Clinton tied with Mother Teresa as the woman most admired by Americans, a CNN/USA Today poll of 1,016 American finds. The second most admired man is another controversial Democrat and lately a successful international peace maker: former President Jimmy Carter. Former British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, former first lady Barbara Bush and talk show host Oprah Winfrey occupy third, fourth, and fifth place...
...expanded into a full-scale investigation that has gone beyond Espy to include Tyson Foods and its relationship with Bill Clinton as Arkansas Governor.

Billy Ray Dale, former White House travel office chief, pleaded not guilty to embezzling money paid by the news media for travel with the president, and asked the judge for the right to subpoena records from Hillary Rodham Clinton and other White House officials to prove his innocence. Among the records sought are those of the late Vincent Foster, the deputy White House counsel who committed suicide. Dale is accused of wrongfully pocketing at least $33,297. "Mr. Dale never spent a penny of government money or media money," his attorney, Steven C. Tabackman, said outside court. Dale claims that...
