Former Clinton Official Named as Russian Dupe (Strobe Talbott)
Accuracy in Media ^ | March 04, 2008 | AIM Report

Posted on 03/04/2008 7:45:08 PM PST by river rat

Snip..... In what could be the biggest State Department scandal since State Department official and United Nations founder Alger Hiss was exposed as a Soviet spy, a top Clinton State Department official and former Time magazine journalist has been identified as having been a trusted contact of the Russian intelligence service.

Snip... The sensational charge against Strobe Talbott is made in a new book based on interviews with a Russian defector.

Snip... Talbott has been and continues to be a major foreign policy thinker. Back in 2000, when he was named head of the Yale Center for the Study of Globalization, he was described as "a key architect of U.S. foreign policy" during the Clinton years. Talbott now serves as president of the liberal think tank, the Brookings Institution, in Washington, D.C., where he gets paid over $400,000 a year, leads a staff of 277 and presides over an endowment of over $200 million.

Snip.. This is not the first time that Talbott has come under scrutiny for his alleged contacts with agents of a foreign intelligence service. In 1994, when he was being considered for his State Department post in the Clinton Administration, he was grilled by Senator Jesse Helms, a member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, about his relationship with Victor Louis, a Soviet "journalist" who was actually a Soviet KGB intelligence agent. Talbott had been a young correspondent for Time magazine in Moscow.

Of course the headline is wrong. Strobe Talbott is a fellow traveler, not a dupe.

The smarmy, oleagenous, creep was and is totally pro-communist.

I wish I could contradict your post. I wish I could point out how you’re wrong.

I can’t - you’re 100 % right. Thank God you’re also right that there are still some good people left, and new ones joining their ranks.

Is it enough? Will it make a difference ?-that’s the big question.

albott is a start. Scrutiny should also be placed on Anthony Lake, who is Obama’s foreign policy advisor. 13 posted on 03/04/2008 7:56:31 PM PST

“Interestingly, one of Talbott’s closest friends in the U.S. Senate, Republican Richard Lugar of Indiana, has emerged as a foreign policy adviser to leading Democratic presidential candidate and Senator Barack Obama of Illinois. In 2005, Lugar and Obama made a visit to Russia to promote the scandal-ridden “Cooperative Threat Reduction Program (CTR),” also known as the Nunn-Lugar program for its original Senate sponsors. The CTR has poured about $6 billion into the former Soviet Union in foreign aid, supposedly for the purpose of preventing nuclear proliferation.”

OMG!!~ Dick Lugar is a USEFUL IDIOT!

"The only thing that surprises me about this is that I thought the Clinton administration was a wholly-owned subsidiary of the PRC."

The Clintons are WHORES -- ANYONE with the money can buy them.

Drag a few million dollars past the White House, and you'd be surprised at the White Trash it would attract......

They are believers in Talbott's philosophy - that there should be no "nation states" - only a Global Money Pit, that the elitists should dabble within....and distribute according to their concept of "fairness".

Americans had better wake up and either vote wisely or arm themselves.....
because if they continue to vote Leftists into office, we'll have running battles in the streets of our cities....or worse.

This is why crippling the NSA is so important to the left. Yes, we are listening to foreign communication to American citizens.

Good observation. It all does make sense now. I just thought they were stupid and against everything that Bush does. But the reality is quite chilling.

I think it may be too early to find fault with Rush's suggestion....

The LONGER the Democrat fight continues - the more irritated is the scab that exists between the "plantation blacks" and the deeply bigoted and manipulative Democrat leadership..

Also - McCain's campaign leader has publicly stated he will NOT go negative on Obama!
How do you expect to beat a candidate when your strategy is to kiss the ring of their self declared "sainthood"?

Hillary's drive to fulfill her "destiny" -- will drive her to attack Obama with everything, including the Kitchen Sink and purloined FBI files....

The same goes for Obama -- he would enjoy nothing more than to drive the stake into the Clinton cabal's heart -- represented by Hillary...

Here again -- McCain's campaign is TOO AWARE of the negatives that can be used against him for him to say anything necessarily injurious against either Hillary or Obama..

So - in my view - any strategy that keeps this Cobra and Mongoose fighting is GOOD..
Neither will gain strength from the fight - and both will received wounds that can be exploited in the future campaign for the prize..

Again - if one can keep the "enemy" off balance and fighting amongst themselves, it is best to stand away, observe how the effective blows are struck and NOT interfere!
If fact - if there is anyway to arm or to assist the "loser" we should do so to keep the fight going and the enemy "blood" flowing......

I know that makes me sound like an awful person..... But - I've survived life or death struggles by believing the only "fair" fight is the one I win and my enemy loses.
Never give your blood lusting enemy an even break or fair fight.....NEVER.
Not if you value your own life or values.

There can be no "win/win" scenario in politics, when one side is the "cover organization" for dedicated Leftist enemies of the Republic as it was founded....

Welcome to the Forum!

You’ll find a lot more Grunts here than you could imagine...
In fact a couple have “ping lists” set up to alert Marines to Posts of interest...

I’d recommend you ask to get included.
One Ping list focuses on the Courts Marshall cases arising out of the war in Iraq.....
Another is more general in focus..

Semper Fi

Talbott was the idiot who famously remarked that the United States will not exist in the future, there will be NO countries, and everything would be ruled by a One World Government. Is anyone surprised?

I'm certain, especially with the agenda of the left and our Republican candidate who is as left as they come that we are ahead of schedule. The Chinese and Russians are very proud of the fact we have sunk this low. I started saying this in the early 90's that we will see a One World Gov't by 2020 or so...Talbott is just one of the idiots to help facilitate it...
