George Bush Sr. in A Woman in Charge: The Life of Hillary Rodham Clinton, by Carl Bernstein


On Principles & Values: Pardoned 6 officials in Iran-Contra scandal

Bush’s notes legally irrelevant and historically inaccessible, because there were no defendants left in the case to put on trial. Many Democrats and some Republicans believed it a case of the president, in effect, pardoning himself from possible prosecution, because Weinberger’s indictment charged, in part, that he’d lied about the knowledge and active role of then Vice President Bush in Iran-contra.
