Bill Clinton also approved the sale of technology to China that would allow them to successfully manufacture ICBMs aimed at the USA.

Yes, I remember that. In fact, I think it was to cover up the troubling sale of technology to China that Bill Clinton let the Monica Lewinsky scandal blow up the way it did.

The allegations about the affair with Lewinsky came out within a day or two of the news of the technology sale to China, IIRC. The news media, even the conservative media, jumped on it and completely failed to ask the hard questions about the national security implications of that sale. Bill Clinton could have nipped everything in the bud by saying, “Yeah, I did an intern. What are you going to do about it?” There would have been some media noise about it, but it would have died out quickly. Instead, Clinton chose to obfuscate and lie about the affair, making it into a huge deal—and completely wiping the troubling technology sale to China and gift of nuclear technology to North Korea out of the news. That was his goal. Now that these actions of Bill Clinton are coming to fruition, hardly anyone even remembers his role in bringing about the current situation in North Korea.

When Iran starts making nuclear threats, will anyone remember Barack Hussein Obama’s role in ensuring that they had everything they needed in order to advance their nuclear weapons program?

Clinton and Obama have done more harm to the country and to world peace than the Rosenbergs ever dreamed of doing. The USSR at least was kept in check by MAD. There is little evidence that North Korea and Iran will be held back in the same way.
