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:

Maybe that's gotta be the reason. I remember how pissed off I was when Judicial Watch finally won in court that GW Bush & his admin would have to release the transcripts of Clinton's 11th hour pardons..... and GW Bush's admin instead completely sanitized and blanked out nearly 90% of the documents & verbage related to the hundreds of late hour pardons. I can't believe that GW Bush continues to suck up to Clinton again & again, while Clinton turns around at every opportunity to slam & critize GW Bush. Is Bush that much of a wimp or does he just like getting slammed by Bubba as a sign of affection?

The cigar is bigger than her, lol.
Sounds like a job for the Swiftvets, Freepers, Dittoheads and Hugh-gonauts.
Tony Snow has been on it...
Hope both of you had a Merry Christmas!

You should be on the WH "rapid response team"
LOL!
You're GOP campaign contributions at work
That would be us, wouldn't it?
"Tony Snow calls for the release of the unredacted Barrett Report, at least once a week on his radio show."
Perhaps we should all get behind Tony and give him some support. Or maybe he'll have a poll on his web page...hopefully, one where you can only vote once. (I've known of libs taking advantage of polls by voting numerous times.)
"Maybe they are waiting for the proper time."
If anything, they'd be looking for someone to take the fall for them.
"The NYT, LAT, and WaPo are simply the propaganda arms of the RAT party."
New survey says Wall Street Journal now heads the list.

Narration: The President sent the IRS to harrass his critics. The president had his friends obstruct the investigation. The President arranged for spying on the Special Prosecutor's office. His Administration tried to cover it up. Now his friends in Congress are blocking the Report after spending millions of taxpayer money.They are afraid it will ruin his family member's run for the Presidency. Don't let The President get away with this crime. Call your Senators and Representatives. Tell them to release the Barrett report.
Never mentioning its about Clinton, I bet a bunch of Bush haters would be outraged and call.
How true. Even the GOP wimps out on these investigations against the demorats.
This is your "Two-Party Cartel" at work again protecting the elites in the one faction. Gawd forbid we would rid ourseleves of these felons in the dem party. We might actually then get a true conservative agenda. Those elites - who by the way own these Congresscritters - won't allow this to happen. So as I've stated for 7 yrs here- keep voting in this corrupt cartel & get this type of government.
