From Wikipedia (which is accurate in this reference)...

During a 1996 Congressional inquiry into the "Filegate" scandal, (US Representative Tom) Lantos (D-CA) told witness Craig Livingstone that "with an infinitely more distinguished public record than yours, Admiral Boorda committed suicide when he may have committed a minor mistake." Boorda, the Chief of Naval Operations, had taken his own life after his right to wear Combat V decorations had been questioned. Lantos was criticized by some...who interpreted the remark as a suggestion that Livingstone too should kill himself.

Everyone knew exactly what Lantos meant - he was suggesting that anyone willing to rat on the Clintons and their multiple scandals should kill themselves. Lantos had a heavy Hungarian accent and Rush Limbaugh had a lot of fun mimicing Lantos' accent and quirky comment at that time. I'm surprised you don't remember it.

It was the first thing that came to my mind (including Lantos' heavy Hungarian accennt) when you posted the Obamacide comment.

Ahhh, gotcha !

That particular despicable episode had slipped into one of memory's increasingly numerous cracks, accounting for my having seemed so thick .. lol !

As vile as the Clintons were/are, those bygone days seem almost naive in comparison to the traitorous regime of this halfbreed muzi fagboy.
