Were we wrong about Bill Clinton?
Mar 8,2005

Posted on 03/08/2005 12:49:49 PM PST by swampfx

I started lurking here shortly after Freerepublic started, mainly because Freepublic.com was a great source for news the mainstream media would not cover.

I remember reading about how the Park Police could not find Vince Foster’s keys at the location where his body was found. When the former bouncer and White House errand boy Craig Livingstone went to identify the body at the morgue, he reached in the dead Mr. Foster’s pants pockets and retrieved a large set of keys that was missed by all the professionals. That, among other information left me with doubts about the conclusion Vince Foster committed suicide.

I saw a photo posted on FR of Ron Brown’s head. It looked like a bullet hole to me.

The same April 1996, Ron Brown died; William Colby fell out of his canoe and died.

The mainstream media reported William Colby called his wife shortly before he disappeared and told her he was going for a canoe ride. I found out on FR that his friend and business associate, James Davidson, stated Mr. Colby did not tell his wife he was going for a canoe ride. Why would someone make that up?

About two weeks later, Admiral Boorda shot himself in his chest, through his ribbons. The mainstream media said it was because he was wearing medals he did not earn. I found out on FR, the claim was bogus. Admiral Boorda participated in combat operations in Southeast Asia and was awarded two “V” devices for medals he received related to combat operations.

I learned on FR about Kathy Ferguson. She was married to Bill Clinton’s co-defendant in the Paula Jones civil suit at the time of the reported harassment. Later, Kathy divorced Danny and Kathy was dating Bill Shelton at the time of her death. Days after the suit was filed, Kathy shot herself in the head. Six weeks later, police officer Bill Shelton was found on top of her grave. He died of a gunshot to the head.

Barbara Wise worked in the office in the Commerce Department where the technology transfers to China were being considered. Friday after Thanksgiving in 1996 her naked badly bruised body was found in her office at the Commerce Department. She died of natural causes. I read about the police report describing the condition of her body on Freerepublic.

Less than two weeks after Lewinsky had her reported showdown with the President, Mary Mahoney, a former Clinton White House intern was shot several times in a Starbucks where she worked two miles from the White House. Her two co-workers were also shot to death. No money was taken, no one heard any shots. Unless you read the Washington Times or FR, it is unlikely you have ever heard of Mary Mahoney. The Lewinsky acquaintance and former intern was never mentioned in the national mainstream press.

According to Juanita Broaddrick, Bill Clinton raped her. I believed her.

I voted for our current President hoping for a legitimate investigation into the technology transfers to China and many of the other activities associated with Bill Clinton.

Later, it was explained to me it these potential high crimes would not be investigated because of political reasons.

I thought I understood the reason President Bush would not prosecute Bill Clinton for his many crimes.What I don’t understand is why President Bush now embraces a man I once thought was a rapist, complicit in murder, and a man that sold weapons technology to communist China for campaign contributions.

Were we wrong about Bill Clinton?

And you still make that statement about Clinton being acquitted

What a sad chapter in American history and that includes the spineless GOP senators

"I was not aware that Clinton done all those things while President Bush was in office. If so, please submit proof to your local police department, I am sure they will see that Clinton is arrested and prosecuted."

Are you sure I shouldn't just call in Starsky and Hutch while I'm at it?

Wrong. Admiral Boorda was not authorized to wear the combat "V". It has to be specifically authorized in the medal commendation. Boorda's awards did not contain that authorization.

Years after Admiral Boorda was awarded his two "V" devices, the Navy Regulations for awards and decorartions were revised to include a specific wording in the commendation in order for the receipient to wear the "V" device.

It was never the intent of the revision to go back and yank away all the "V" devices awarded because the citations did not include wording from a revision that did not exist at the time of the award.

I received an NCM award with a combat "V" in 1968. The wording in the commendation specifically stated that I was authorized to wear a Combat "V".

Would you mind providing the exact quote from the citation? I would like to compare it with the current regulation, Thanks in advance.

No. But we were wrong to think we'd ever get any justice.

The powerful protect the powerful.

Thanks to that, we have a chance to live the nightmare of a Hillary presidency.

When you received the NCM, was the "V" device attached, or did you purchase the "V" device at the uniform store?

I will admit that my knowledge does not extend beyond what I have read...just like you. However, I do not have 'authoritative sources'--- so you're the first person in my personal or internet sphere who has stated there are 'in excess of 2000' FBI files.

Of course, you're entitled to your 'humble opinion'. I am, on the other hand, going to open a Tinfoil Hat Shoppe in Manhattan. Rather than having football team logos or college names embroidered on the front, my hats will be engraved with the title of the conspiracy theory of your choice.

Cute idea. No, really IT'S A CUTE IDEA.

But better make that "shoppe" a mall where Bill Clinton is concerned...

Actually, as I think about it, my opinion on "conspiracy theories" extends quiiiite a bit further out than BJ.

I've been here long enough to read down a bit before I post and you said what I was thinking

The 43 men that have become president are part of one of the most elite group of men on the planet.It behooves the Bushes to help save the reputation of the presidency.

"...he was charged with most of that, except the treason and the Chi-Com thing, during Impeachment."

He most certainly was not...and don't you recall all the caterwaulin' about how Slick's crimes were to be settled in a court of law, after he completed his Presidency? Who said "Justice Delayed is Justice Denied!!"? Heck, we just go on IGNORING JUSTICE fer the Clintonoids and defending the gutless, spineless speck of a man we made Attorney General in these trying times. And JOHN ASHCROFT FAILED TO DO HIS JOB!!

He failed miserably...MUD

Oh, good heavens! When are you nutballs going to let go of the Great FBI Files Conspiracy? I am truly sick to death of that high school crap.

If the dreaded FBI files were ever going to be used, they would have been years ago.The fact that we have a government pretty much run by Republicans proves how stupid that theory is.

Find a new one. How 'bout...

BEWARE THE BUILD-A-BURGERS!!!!
