Dick Clarke: Hillary's Kind of Hawk

Human Events ^ | 3/26/04 | Terence P. Jeffrey

I have felt from the beginning that Hillary was writing his script (with a ghost writer, unnamed of course). This just reeks of the PIAPS!

"Alone in the room, on her knees, Mrs. Clinton was praying."


I think not. Assuming the position, maybe...

[Maria S]

This "non-fiction" book has to be THE largest piece of revisionist history every written! And the Clintons must be ever sooooo proud of Dick...

[Mike Bates]

"I opened the door to the next room, which had been set up as a chapel," writes Clark. "Alone in the room, on her knees, Mrs. Clinton was praying."

Always time for a Black Mass.

"Alone in the room, on her knees, Mrs. Clinton was praying."


I say with great confidence that this never ever happened.

I think the whole commission hearing was a dog and pony show. It was conducted to let the different parties vet their excuses for inaction. I did not hear a solution offered to prevent an event like Massouri's flight training without learning to land and arrest by Michigan State authorities holding him because the FBI would not arrest him.

How about the two Saudis in San Diego watched by two FBI agents who tried to warn the authorities in Washington? We might carry it a little further to Prince Bandar's little princess that paid their expenses. An explanation might be offered as to how the Bin Laden family and some of their Saudi friends were flown out of the country immediately following 9/11 when the rest of commercial aviation was grounded for two days. The hearing was just window dressing so the public would be diverted from other questions that need answered.

If anything was accomplished other than trying to shift the blame game, it was a good demonstration on how ineffective our bureaucracy can be expected to be on domestic security. Both administrations have failed to come up with solutions to our security problems because our government is so large and unwieldy. As long we insist on all roads leading to Washington in a centralized setting, we are vulnerable.

Hillary always had a special fondness for "lifelong batchelors" like "Double-0 Dick" (as she affectionately calls him ).

She often used the close ties she worked so hard to develop to Benazir Bhutto to "pull his chestnuts out of the fire" in Pakistan, Afghanistan and India. Yes, her close ties to Bhutto were invaluable to America in it's battle against the Taliban and AlQueda.

What a disaster Clarke would have had in SW Asia if America hadn't relegated all other concerns in the area to secondary importance to Hillary's "woman to woman" relationship with Bhutto!

I have wondered just what was in Clarke's FBI file that someone is using to manipulate him.

[Zack Nguyen]

"Others (Clinton, the first Bush, Carter, Ford) might have tried to understand the phenomenon of terrorism, what led 15 Saudis and four others to commit suicide to kill Americans. Others might have tried to build a world consensus to address the root causes, while using the moment to force what had been lethargic or doubting governments to arrest known terrorists and close front organizations. One can imagine Clinton trying one more time to force an Israeli-Palestinian settlement, going to Saudi Arabia and addressing the Muslim people in a moving appeal for religious tolerance . . ."

Lord help us. Thank God a strong President was in charge of our terror war.

Referring to Robert Gallucci, a member of the United Nations Special Commission on Iraq, Clarke casually states: "Gallucci and I had both been anti-Vietnam War protestors in the 1960s."

Well now. That explains a whole lot. Somebody needs to alert the VVAW ping list.

[CyberAnt]

I agree - and the goal is to discredit the WH and Condi all at one time. It's a great plan .. but it's not working!

Plus, I noticed this statement from Clarke about he and another guy: "we were anti-Vietnam War protestors in the 1960s" - did Clarke know Kerry from the anti-war stuff ..?? I mean .. did Kerry and Clarke cook this up? This is very interesting.

[petitfour]

You do not register as a Republican or a Democrat in the state of Virginia. If you want to vote in a primary, then you just vote. No problem. Richard Clarke is either ignorant, or he lied.

Hubby and I voted in the Virginia primary for a democrat. That doesn't make us RATS. We just wanted to vote against Kerry as many times as possible.

[Libloather]

"Mrs. Cheney was more than just a family member who had to be protected," writes Clarke. "Like her husband, she was a right-wing ideologue..."

Whoever got a hold of this perp, they paid him enough to say anything. I can only hope he's convicted of perjury - just like the *Crintons...

[MEG33]

This book is just outrageous!Quotes here.

Over here!

Clarke is the POSTER BOY for why federal bureaucrats should all be fired and we start over from scratch.

It's total proof we need to revamp the system. I'd rather just pull names out of phone books to fill the jobs, we'd be better off.

[Fledermaus]

Amazing...the Patriot Act makes Ashcroft a Nazi willing to send us to the gas chambers while Reno acutally DID KILL American citizen's with no authority and should have been arrested for treason, convicted and shot.

Oh, but she said, "I'm sorry". Boy, I bet Hitler is spinning in his grave knowing all he had to do as apologize on Oprah to get a pass.

I awake every single day wishing nothing but horrible, painful deaths and eternity in the farthest depths of Hell for these turds.

Thanks for ping, Meg.
Terry Jeffrey can really write.
This is gold.

Precisely.
They undermine.
Recall Reno's DOJ.
