I didn't realize Judy Miller's lawyer is Bill Bennett's brother

Wolf just sprung the "comment" on him in an interview about Judy. Brother is pissed he wasn't warned about it.

6. How is it weird? He's an excellent, excellent attorney.
Were I in a tight spot, and had the cash to retain him, I would absolutely want Bob Bennett representing me.

13. I think I recall Bob Bennett saying no, they're not very close.
This was in an interview back during the Lewinsky nonsense.

5. Think you are mixing up families. The Bennett who acted as
Clinton's attorney during the impeachment is a brother to the Bennett with a gambling problem who is suggesting aborting all black babies. Same family different spectrums on the decency scale. (I get their first names mixed up.)

9. Yeah, Bob laid the smack-down on Blitzer
Edited on Fri Sep-30-05 02:32 PM by OKNancy
for straying off the topic. I recall reading a long article about the brothers and how they remained close even though they are on different ends of the political spectrum.
