Clinton's Economic Espionage Led to Intelligence Failure

The recent 9/11 Commission hearings demonstrated that America failed. The hearings allowed the current and former top officials of the Justice Department, the FBI and the CIA to assert that they were underfunded and hindered by legal red tape.

While such claims may be true, it is a fact that the Clinton administration revamped the missions of the FBI and CIA following the fall of the Soviet Union, directing large segments of our national intelligence apparatus toward conducting commercial espionage.

In short, President Clinton assigned the CIA, NSA and FBI to help U.S. corporations win foreign contracts. Clinton diverted our intelligence and law enforcement agencies to "commercial" espionage when he classified some economic programs to be of national security.

Richard Barth left the Clinton White House to work for Motorola as Assistant Director for International Trade Relations in 1993. He joined an impressive crew of former Clinton administration officials that left government work for greener pastures at Motorola.

Curious passage -- they can't have been there long! "Whut up?"

For 8 long years, Clinton undermined, in every way possible, the stability and even the future of our Country (think China) by killing the Military and our capabilities at home and selling nuclear and air power information to China.

I long for the day when, on national television, the great gate of Leavenworth Penitentiary will gape wide to receive the 42nd President of the United States.

Then, all we will have remaining to do is to tear down the LBJ Library (aka the Temple of the Deified Lyndon), abolish MLK Day, and overthrow the government of Vietnam, and history will have been (more or less) repaired.

I have been saying for several years now that many of those who voted for this conman will not live long enough to see the total of the damage he has done, we will be paying for this one for a century if we survive. What really breaks my heart is that he is so obviously full of garbage that anyone with one eye open could have seen it.

Is newsmax on the list of outlets that must be excerpted? Just curious.

Let's ask him. Carl, it's still okay for us to post the whole article, right?

But most important was making sure that all nations negotiating with us bought Tyesn's chicken, a pause that refreshes pal from the good old party days in Little Rock.

Yes, Clintonism from Little Rock to the global village.

I believe that somebody was blackmailing either Bill or Hillry or both of them and it was someone big enough that their whole administration was designed in paying off the blackmailer(s).

Reason why all US Attorneys had to go post haste!

I can attest from firsthand knowledge that this was indeed the case.

That UN program "OIL for FOOD", that ripped off the people of Iraq was probably conjured up by this same bunch.

No, Bill Clinton was very clear how he would handle international turnmoil, Mogadishu. Bill Clinton not only ran because he did not believe the US had any right to be there, he could not understand why we needed to go back and retrieve the bodies of our troops. Remember? It was a peacekeeping mission.....to him it was flower power and a little dope? He handled terrorism the same way, we had no right to infringe upon their beliefs, regardless of the fact that their design was death upon the US. In Clinton's heart of hearts, he believed we had it coming.

BTTT.

They never will. Them and their ilk dream of the day when he is King of the world. Their lips are so firmly adhered to fat behind that they only write what they hear, Klintoon talking out of his arse.
