clean bill of health

You should restate your question--as it stands right now, i don't understand what you are asking.

By the way, "sth" and "thx" are not words. If you want to discuss English, it helps to use English.

Okay if it's not that clear..
I have this expression " a clean bill of health", I can give you the whole sentence :
In the process of giving us a clean bill of health, he could destroy us.

Kissinger was talking about an investigation.

The problem is I need to translate this sentence and it really doesn't give the meaning literally. So I want to know if it means here, "to be innocent of something" ??

thx !

Never mind !! there are ppl who can understand that.

Without further context, it is not possible for me to say what Kissinger meant, but it does appear that Kissinger is saying that while "we" could be declared innocent in one matter, the process could reveal guilt in another. So, to that extent, i think you probably have interpreted it correctly.

So, people who can't understand the abbreviations are just screwed, huh?

That's good, thank you !

True . . . but you are asking a question on the English Forum.

So please don't speak text or computer messaging style when asking a question. Also, it helps to know the content when asking about idioms or English expressions.

It sounds like the "he" Kissinger is talking about may have "checked us out," determined validity or conducted an investigation. It could also mean that he determined that we were not guilty or doing something wrong.

Get off your high horses, gents. It doesn't matter that this is the English forum.

Neither of you misunderstood any of Safinaz's shortcuts.

Even if there really is anyone that dumb, we can always help them out.

Or get back on your high horses and gallop on over to the Peeves thread. It's jammed full of nonsense.

Set, what of your shortcut of always using a non-capitalized 'I'?

SULLYFISH66, Thanks for your explanation..

JTT I totally agree with you
