This guy, considering his positions in the house and his reputation, is going to make up some wild stories just to sell books?

Rep. Weldon has been one of the best House members when it comes to terrorism and the Jihadists.

I don't know...

I don't think the NY Times makes a habit of running front page stories about something negative towards Clinton, to help a Republican sell books....

He revealed the information on the House floor in June 2005. Apparently we weren't listening, and the MSM didn't want to bring it up unless it had to since it wasn't Bush's fault.

"Is anybody else suspicious?"

Nope. Read this, and notice the source: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1460891/posts

Curt Weldon says he came across the info while doing research for his book. His timing to release the info close to his book release is suspicious but the fact that the information was found is not.

Are you one of the Hillary supporters on here? You obviously have no idea of the integrity of Rep Weldon who is trying to get the message out about the failure of our intelligence community thanks to the Clintons! The book is the way to get info to people like us since the MSM is not about to tell us the truth unless absolutely forced to do so and even then it will have spin.

Ah lovely! The Clinton mantra. Anytime bad info is coming out, it's all about someone making money on a book, or my favorite defense that I've seen on the threads today......"The timing is suspicious".

It ain't gonna work this time.
