during the administration of george h.w. bush, oversight efforts uncovered soap dishes that cost $117 and pliers that cost nearly $1,000. in some cases, the department of defense admitted some high prices didn't even pass the smell test. true, better deals were negotiated. people tried to make some changes, but to offset losses on lower prices, the contractors jacked up overhead and management charges, making the overall contract price the same. exercising oversight on these contracts is like working with a balloon. you know the famous balloon. you squeeze it in one place and the problems pop out someplace else. under president bill clinton, a report by the government accountability office, as we know it here, the g.a.o., revealed one defense contractor paid its top executives more than $33 million a year, an amount that was reimbursed by the federal government as part of the contract. now, i happen to agree that a company has the right to pay its executives whatever it wants. however, when the government enters into cost reimbur

somebody which is a title to do that can't be the act element of a crime for example president george h.w. bush pardoned caspar weinberger and five other people on the eve of their trial for corrupt purpose in order to make sure that they didn't come back and testify against him but nobody suggested that would constitute either a crime or impeachable offense alan you know though you are smart and i we go back a long way or an old plan yeah you know. and you know i read that you dined with dirt with the president you appear on fox news regularly that alan dershowitz would become a hero of the far right is an anathema yeah yeah i mean first the i'm not here of the far right i am hero of some people on the right and i'm a devil to some people on the left look i dined with president obama dined president clinton i don't think any american should turn down an invitation to dying president he wanted to talk about the middle east i'm deeply involved in the middle east peace process as you know and a close friend of benjamin not that you know who i know president abbas and i've been asked for my advice
