Talk:Susan McDougal

This page really needs some work.

Background Information

[edit]

Background information would be useful (i.e. Susan McDougal's maiden name, date of birth, how she and her husband got into the real estate business).

C-Span Appearance

[edit]

I saw Susan McDougal on television last night -- I believe it was C-Span. She was speaking at the Little Rock, AR Peabody Hotel.

Her comments were significant concerning the Whitewater case. If someone would like to research this speech and her assertions, I think they are most definitely worth posting.

This article does leave a lot to be desired. Most importantly, I note that I am not looking for her significance to other situations. I am looking for information on Susan McDougal herself, and her experiences. This article on her, though it seems accurate, needs to make her more than just an offshoot of Whitewater. --Spesek 19:24, 6 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hopefully my contributions, based on McDougal's book, have clarified her positions and experiences. Duke Ganote (talk) 20:03, 3 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

"The Hunting of the President" Docu

[edit]

I must say after reading what she was actually incarcerated for in connection with the Contempt of Court charges I feel duped by the makers of this documentary, because they portray her going to jail for refusing to lie. Which always appeared outrageous to me. If she gave truthful answers and was subsequently locked up for "contempt of court". The truth is she refused to answer the three questions stated in the article. That's gotta seem strange. Why didn't she just answer the questions truthfully? OF COURSE a witness does not have the right to refuse testimony of what they know, once they're subpoenaed. I came across this looking up the history of "presidential pardons". Seeing the history of it, from the pardoning of Nixon by President Ford to the Bush (I) pardons of a whole bunch of Iran-Contra guys up to Clinton who pardons dozens of "white-collar" criminals in his last days of office plus said lady, I gotta say this concept of Presidential Pardon authority makes a goddamn mockery of the principle of "rule of law" and a fair justice system. Presidents cherry-pick justice according to their personal affections and preferences. It's a disgrace. --213.54.14.202 23:19, 21 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

RE "The truth is she refused to answer the three questions stated in the article? That's gotta seem strange. Why didn't she just answer the questions truthfully". It sounded lame to me too. Hopefully, the additions and citations from McDougal's book, including Julie Hiatt Steele's experience with Kathleen Willie, clarify McDougal's position.

Fair use rationale for Image:Susanmcdougal.jpg

[edit]

Image:Susanmcdougal.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

Need a picture here. Susan McDougal was a hottie when younger and definitely looked good in orange. I bet she "traded off" for the pardon from Bill Clinton. You know that of to ge true. She is getting older now, so not so sure of it, but may still hit it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 141.116.212.23 (talk) 00:46, 1 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Most of this article is sourced from a book Susan wrote herself

[edit]

We need to find sources that are not written by Susan. I won't have time for a while, but I hope to get to this. Maybe someone can get started on this sooner than later. Kingturtle = (talk) 15:16, 17 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
