That was a long time ago. My last contact was during the Clinton years when I was told that despite DoD cutbacks the black programs were well funded.
Yes, I remember Hazel O'Leary's shenanigans -- something about giving everyone the same badge at highly classified sites to avoid "hurting" the feeeeeeeeeeeeellings of employees.
Precisely.
A very good friend of mine, now deceased (RIP) worked at Hanford and expressed the opinion that Hazel was nuts (in much more graphic language.)
Her ideas were just a reflection of Clinton's: the USA should not be 'superior' to other countries; after all, they have people, too...so who the hell cares about DoD or DoE secrets?
Clinton, however, monetized that opportunity with the ChiComs after they bailed him out in his primary race (see above re Worthen Bank.) I happen to think that Clinton could and should be tried for treason and executed, based on the evidence that is public alone...
