Dick Morris Reveals Whitewater Secret in New Book

In his new book "Rewriting History," longtime aide to Bill and Hillary Clinton, Dick Morris reveals that he's guarded a secret about the Whitewater scandal for nearly a decade that could have led to Clinton's removal from office.

"What I was not talking about and have not for eight years is an incident that took place in 1996," he told Fox News Channel's "Hannity & Colmes" on Tuesday.

Morris alleged that Clinton improperly influenced U.S. District Court Judge Henry Woods to dismiss Whitewater charges against then-Arkansas Gov. Jim Guy Tucker, who had threatened to go public about Hillary's involvement in the fraudulent Castle Grande land deal.

After Clinton Attorney General Janet Reno ruled that Starr had jurisdiction over Tucker's involvement in Whitewater, Tucker was "furious," said Morris.

Using Morris as a go-between, Tucker sent a warning: "Tell the president that if that SOB wants to play the game this way, I know all about the IDC," the formal business name for Castle Grande.

When Morris passed on the threat to Clinton, "he turned white as a sheet."

"Clinton sat down, put his head in his hands and said, 'Oh my God, do you know what he means?"

Morris said he replied, "No, but I think you know what he means."

Later that night, Morris said Clinton told him, "I took care of that problem today." Three weeks later Judge Woods tossed out the Tucker indictment.

Though the case was later reinstated, Tucker never followed through on his threat, which, according to Morris, could have precipitated perjury and fraud charges against Hillary.

Statute of limitations must be at an end.

Nothing whatsoever could have ever been proved in this incident.

Clinton would have remained above the law.

The 'fair and balanced' FOX should be asking Colmes some serious questions as to whether he would like to continue his H&C position as an 'objective' interviewer....

ROTFLMAO,,, the idea that Hannity or Colmes has ever been objective is hilarious. The show wasn't even designed that way. The idea of "balance" on the show is two wildly partisan political hacks going at each other.

"Clinton opened nuclear labs to terrorist-state visitors !!"

"It's well known that former Energy Secretary Hazel O'Leary rolled out the welcome mat for Chinese nationals. But in keeping with her "openness policy" -- which was an outgrowth of President Clinton's "denuclearization" policy, which called for a global ban on nuclear tests, wholesale declassification of early nuclear-program secrets and lab-to-lab foreign collaborations -- O'Leary also extended the invitation to terrorist-sponsoring Middle Eastern countries. "Every terrorist country was represented at the labs, either as post-doctoral workers and students assigned there, or as visitors," said ret. Col. Edward McCallum, former head of Energy's Office of Safeguards and Security. "Iran, Iraq, Syria ... you name it, we had them from all of those places."

In an exclusive interview with WorldNetDaily, McCallum revealed that, over the last decade, "hundreds" of students from sensitive Middle Eastern countries worked at Energy's labs, including Los Alamos, Lawrence Livermore and Sandia labs, where America's nuclear weapons are designed and maintained. "And we got hundreds of visits from their intelligence agencies -- that we knew about," he added. At Los Alamos, which designed most of the warheads in the U.S. arsenal and stores nuclear materials at its New Mexico facilities, the number of foreign nationals from sensitive countries working at the lab soared to 182 in 1999 from 31 in 1992, internal lab records show. Countries the lab classifies as sensitive are: Iran, Iraq, India, China, North Korea, Russia, Israel, Taiwan, Pakistan and Syria."

There is NO Statute of Limitations fer TREASON...MUD

Frontline PBS did a documentary on Castle Grande and the Clintons. It was very well done and because of copyright issues I will not link or post it. Call up Frontline and put Castle Grande in search. It is informative. Morris left a lot out of his story.

-"Clearly, the war on terrorism is working. Since taking the fight directly to the terrorist where them train and operate, their ability to engage in terrorism has been genuinely crippled, with the number of international terrorist incidents at historic lows since the Bush administration began its systematic effort to root out terrorism worldwide."

Definite proof, I'd say. Good job putting it together like this.

If Tucker is still around, he had better not fly, drive, bike ride or sailing. He had better watch his back.

The best single book I am aware of about the shennaigans of all those corrupt and criminal "Authorities" in Arkansas during the Clinton reign is "Cover-Up" by David Bresnan.

Eeriely enough, I can't locate any reference to this book in a search- it used to show up easily.

[Alamo-Girl]

Hmmm... interesting that it cannot be googled.

[backhoe]

Hmmm... interesting that it cannot be googled.

Yes, that baffles me- I tried other search engines & filters- and nothing at all returned. I haven't searched for it in a couple of years, and back then there were several linkable sites which included secondhand book sales of the title.

I actually talked to Bresnan back in the late Ninties when I ordered the book and had a credit-card glitch that needed resolving- nice chap, interesting to talk to, his book was a "how they did it." Basically, the Clintons got all those Authorities to make million-dollar ( or higher ) loans to all their friends & cronies, that were interest-free and apparently tax-free as well. They essentially bribed and bought their way to power and favor.

And he showed how it was done, step by step, but with the media still madly in love with anything Clinton, his book came & went with little attention. I gave mine to the local library.

Morris accused Colmes of regurgitating talking points that he receives from the Clintons. Colmes stated, "I don't use talking points." Morris said, "I know you use talking points, I used to give them to you." Colmes didn't deny it.

Priceless! I wish I'd seen it -- Thanks!

Fascinating. Thank you so much for the insight and please let me know if you do find it available somewhere!
