Bipartisan congressional negotiators squelch independent counsel's findings
Though it has had scant attention from the mainstream media, a bipartisan effort to squelch an independent counsel's final report on Clinton-era abuse of the Internal Revenue Service and Justice Department has gotten the attention of Web activists and commentators, causing a growing call for the release of the document that is said to including damning evidence against the 42nd president and his administration.
Over 10 years ago, independent counsel David Barrett was charged with investigating former Clinton Secretary of Housing and Urban Development Henry Cisneros in relation to his lying to the FBI about tax fraud he committed trying to cover up payments to a mistress. Though Cisneros pleaded guilty in 1999, Barrett, in the course of his probe, found evidence of wrongdoing within the IRS and Justice Department in relation to the Cisneros fraud.
Reportedly, Clinton team members tried to interfere with Barrett's investigation, which has cost $21 million, including conducting surveillance of his office.
An IRS whistleblower told Barrett, a Republican, of a cover-up surrounding the Cisneros matter.
Writes columnist Robert Novak: "The informant said a regional IRS official had formulated a new rule enabling him to transfer an investigation of Cisneros to Washington to be buried by the Justice Department. Barrett's investigators found Lee Radek, head of Justice's public integrity office, determined to protect President Bill Clinton."
Columnist Emmett Tyrrell, who has called for the release of the entire Barrett report, writes:

He stammered that his job was to work with the opposition. I told him, flat out, "I voted for you to defeat the Left, not hold hands and be friends!"
Great line, now if only more people felt this way. I don't understand why it's so difficult for Republican politicians to work against Democrats. The excuse I hear a lot is "we see them everyday, off and on all day, and we see them at night at various functions". If anything, you would think that would prompt them to really work against them, but we are in the "hold hands and be friends" phase of party politics, I'm afraid. Sure, they'll snipe at each other in the press, but when they are in the same room, they pretend that none of that exists.

Damn well not the Republicans. Lame, sick, cowards. If they don't get off their asses this November will be a wake up call. Getting rid of the RINO's should be a major priority.

We need Rush to grab a hold of this and spend some serious time dissecting it. There has to be a way to get to the truth one way or the other.
