it shows the Clintons were much more actively involved than we had any idea; that the McDougals put far more money into the project than did the Clintons; and that they clearly used money from the savings and loan to supplement the Whitewater venture. I think we need to and should pursue it. Further, there is a new revelation of how Mrs. Clinton received legal business from Madison. She told the public that a young associate, Mr. Massey, brought the business to the law firm. Then Mr. Massey appeared before us and said he did not bring any business to the law firm. So then she said it was Vince Foster who brought it. She changed her mind. McDougal said that Bill Clinton urged him to give business to Hillary Clinton because the Clintons needed the money. The book reveals that there was a clear witness to that, Susan McDougal's brother, and I think we need him to testify as soon as possible. Many people might say, ``So what, 20 years ago, why is it relevant today?'' There are a number of reasons. First, the White House is engaged in a massive coverup of the entire episode, an inept coverup, but at least an attempt to cover up. We now know what the First Lady truly meant when she told Maggie Williams she did not want 20 years of her life in Arkansas probed by the Senate. We now know why. But it is a true indication of the way they ran things in Arkansas, and they clearly have demonstrated they are going to run them the same way in Washington.
