Know your BFEE: Poppy Bush is why there are no Special Prosecutors around when you need one.

From Project Censored 1993:

5. IRAQGATE AND THE SILENT DEATH OF THE WATERGATE LAW

EXCERPT...

As the year 1992 drew to a close, the media seemed unconcerned with the Bush administration's covert, as well as overt, attempts to kill the Iraggate investigation. These also involved the demise of the Watergate Law, which had assured independent investigations of criminal acts by top officials. The law, which provided for appointment of a special prosecutor to investigate top level members of the administration, expired on December 15, 1992.

How many people do you know who know what "Iraq-gate" is?

For DUers and the interested, the late William Safire detailed how: Poppy Bush helped arm Saddam's Iraq

Get it while you can. I've noticed a lot of this history is disappearing from the DU servers and the rest of the Web. Once those of us who know it are gone, do you think Corporate McPravda and LAckademia will cover it for future generations? Going by the past 51 years, I doubt it.
