Doc's DIS-patch
Friday, March 13, 1998 --- New York (APJP) -- Did you receive the very same mailing that The Doc himself received some time ago? It went something like this:
And, knowing full well that both Publishers Clearing House and American Family Publishers are coming under increased press, legal and IRS scrutiny, you knew the mailing was going to spell even more trouble for the Paula Jones Legal Defense Fund.
If you are a regular American Politics Journal reader, you already know that John Whitehead, grand high poobah of the Rutherford Institute (a tax-exempt "foundation" whose specialty seems to be defending white separatist "Christian Identity" wackos now providing her legal defense) has already gone public with complaints that the PJLDF has not forked over one red cent to Rutherford, who are now handling all things legal with regard to Paula's lawsuit against President Clinton.
In fact, it looks as if the money is being used to pay the lubricious scamstress Miss Jones' personal expenses, including kennel fees for her pit bull (or is it for herself?).
Now, what kennel fees have to do with anyone's legal defense is a little bit beyond The Doc's comprehension.
But I digress (if only slightly).
Yesterday, the Rutherford Institute accused the PJLDF of fraud in a statement far more public and emphatic that before; in fact, they are threatening to bring the matter to the IRS!
Yes, the IRS, conservative America's number one target for "downsizing."
You have to love the irony in all of this: a conservative group going to the despised-by-conservatives Internal Revenue Service to "drop the big one" on another conservative-aligned group! Especially after Jones, through spokesbimbo Susan Crapenter McMillions, made the ridiculous (not to mention unsubstantiated) claim that Clinton "sicced" the IRS on Jones.
Hey, honey, maybe it was those Jones tax returns your pals stupidly posted to the World Wide Web -- then yanked off after the Jones got the audit letter -- that clued in someone at the IRS that Jones was living at what can politely be described as a tad above her means!
Rutherford spokesperson Nisha Mohammed (whose very employment by Whitehead et al is living "proof" that these defenders of White Supremacists and ex-Nazis are equal-opportunity employers, though they probably resent it) said "We have not received any money from the Paula Jones Legal Fund" and that Rutherford was "the only organization authorized to pay documented legal expenses."
Including her previous lawyers, Gil Davis and Joe Cammarata, we wonder?
Meanwhile, the Rutherford Institute has turned over complaint letters to US District Judge James Michael... the very same jurist with whom President Clinton's lawyers filed a motion claiming that Jones is merely seeking to enrich herself... just as the PJLDF has begun another round of fund-raising!
The hilarious irony is that the Rutherford complaints may well bolster Clinton's claims about Jones!
So next time you get a mailing from the Paula Jones Legal Defense Fund, you and the rest of our nation may just be a winner...
When the case gets thrown out of court!
'Nuff said.
