...this context, Greenspan's close relationship with the Clinton Administration, which burst into the spotlight with his now famous appearance beside Hillary Rodham Clinton at the President's first address to a joint session of Congress in February 1993, has turned out to be useful. "Both sides need each other," says Felix Rohatyn, a partner at the investment firm Lazard Freres.

Others agree with Huguet Pameijer of Simsbury, Connecticut, who thinks "the current bash fest" stems from the perception that the First Lady is "too accomplished, too powerful, too darn inexcusably uppity." But some 50 readers have harsh words for Hillary. While the milder critics deem...

The documents revealed that Mrs. Clinton made nearly $100,000 during 1978 and 1979 by investing just $1,000 of her own money.
