The Hidden Anger Of Bill Clinton
Investor's Business Daily ^ | Sep 25, 2006 | Paul Sperry

[snip]

I can commiserate with Wallace. Several years ago, as the Washington bureau chief of this newspaper, I also got full frontal Clinton — in my case, for daring to ask him about the Chinagate scandal.

It was the fall of 1999, the occasion a Cajun picnic for the Washington press corps on the South Lawn of the White House.

Clinton, the function's main attraction, was due to make an appearance at any moment. Despite the president's having to wade through 40-plus scandals over the previous seven years, my cohorts in the press were all atwitter at the prospect of pumping Clinton's arm and snapping shots of him with their spouses and kids.

Just 48 hours earlier, four FBI agents had testified before the Senate that Justice Department lawyers had stopped them from pursuing leads back to Clinton in the ongoing campaign-finance investigation.

Chinagate. I remember when Maverick POW John McCain came to Clinton's resuce by laying down his Campaign Finance Reform smokescreen.

His anger is not so hidden. He has had some notable outbursts in the past.

I love this story. It finally shows, beyond any reasonable doubt, Mr. Clinton's lack of character. Remember when Mr. Clinton said "character is a journey." Oh really?

He is a seething megalomaniac who cares only for his image over the safety of his counry.

His political theory of success? My word, that is easily described, and here it is: Talk is precious, action is cheap.

"Fact is, Clinton can't handle the truth. It's a shame more reporters didn't challenge him while he was still in office abusing his power, .... and selling America out to the Chinese communists."

A perfect tombstone inscription for the guy.

Thanks for re-posting! Important stuff! Read it folks, if you are not familiar with ChinaGate. And don't forget to stock up on ammo.

Worth reviewing the article behind this post. There are lots of Chinagate details therein that have faded from the national consciousness. And who better to raise our consciousness than Mia T.?

Does anyone remember Clinton's first inauguration when he was chewing out Dee Dee Myers?

I seem to remember him kooking out on a reporter in Europe recently, but I can't find anything on it.

Or, the SS agent or maybe it was a FBI agent that was in his way. Our fine 15 pound toting Bible Christian let loose with a string of profanity that would make a gangsta blush!

Bill and Hillary actually got into an argument on their way to the inauguration.

About time he got on with it then.
