Clinton Accuses Bush of Withholding Information from Public

WASHINGTON (Talon News) -- Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-NY) accused President George W. Bush of withholding information from the American people in remarks at a gathering of newspaper editors in Washington on Tuesday.

Clinton said in a one-hour interview before a group of newspaper industry insiders attending the annual American Society of Newspaper Editors Convention that Bush has roadblocked the necessary information that editors need to write accurate stories.

"It's difficult for editors and publishers here to get to the bottom of stories," Clinton said in Editor & Publisher. "This administration, to an extent I haven't seen before, tells the press to go away -- and they do, like most people do when told that more than once."

Directly attacking the Bush administration, Clinton said they do not provide answers that she believes are completely forthcoming.

"Many in this administration are quite expert at saying nothing despite your best efforts to get them to say something," Clinton accused in Editor & Publisher.

Addressing the need for information to be released, Clinton said the Bush administration needs to cooperate better for the sake of the American people.

"[S]o much is at stake now and the public needs more information," Clinton exclaimed.

Alluding to the "right-wing conspiracy" she espoused during her years in the White House as first lady, Clinton told the editors that "the echo chamber of talk radio can drown out a three-part series any of you write."

Clinton said Bush has made "stunning mistakes" in regards to Iraq and blamed Bush for failing to capture the leader of the terrorist group responsible for September 11.

"[It is] insulting that Usama bin Laden is still around to taunt us," Clinton expressed.

When asked to play political soothsayer about the November election, Clinton said of Kerry that "he will" win and guaranteed it was a "better than 50/50" chance of happening.

She said this assertion is "based on hope ... [a]nd an abiding faith and respect for the good sense of the American electorate."

Clinton revealed her husband, former President Bill Clinton, will be actively campaigning on behalf of Kerry.

"He has and he will," Sen. Clinton stated.

I was thinking she hasn't uttered n intelligent word since conception.

But to be fair, perhaps since she quit being a Goldwater teen and became willingly seduced by satanic Marxism.

Sounds like Hillary has had some experience in telling people to go away.

1) We flushed God out of the universities and public square.

2) We pretended the Marxists, socialists, globalists were no big deal.

"What did Bush do, "lose" Rose Law Firm Billing records?

"Did Bush say, "I can't recall" at least 15 times while
before a grand jury?"

No, he refused to let the public see who was on his health care commission, how much it cost, and what was said. And he sent his secretary into Vince Foster's office to get a box of files before the FBI could search it. And he had innocent people in the Travel Office prosecuted just to replace them with his friends. And he got the FBI files on a thousand people. And he used the presidential pardon to obtain campaign contributions.

No, wait, that was Hillary.
