 I believe Clinton may have allowed himself to be blackmailed by the Chinese and other foreign powers. Here's how....
You can bet your bet your buttocks that foreign intelligence services knew about Monica a long time before you did. Couple this with the fact that Clinton did not want his dealings with Monica to become public. Enter the Chinese, who discretely tell Clinton that they'll keep his dirty little secret if he'll help them solve their ABM guidance problems. Note: I don't know if the timeline for this particular incident works out, but certainly Clinton set himself up for this type of blackmail.--libertylover
 You mean to say cold, hard cash wasn't sufficient incentive for missus clinton? ;)
Chinese blackmail would, I suspect, fall under the category of 'redundant systems.' Or as Sun Tzu put it, 'A victorious army opposed to a routed one, is as a pound's weight placed in the scale against a single grain.... In battle, there are not more than two methods of attack--the direct and the indirect.... By holding out baits, he keeps him on the march; then with a body of picked men he lies in wait for him.' In fairness to Chinese extortionists, though, one should note that the inception of mister clinton's brilliant policy initiative of shoveling nuclear secrets out the door apparently predates Monica. "You can bet your bet your buttocks" missus clinton also "knew about Monica" (along with everything else) "a long time before" all of us poor saps did.
For more than a half decade, the Clinton administration was shoveling atomic secrets out the door as fast as it could, literally by the ton. Millions of previously classified ideas and documents relating to nuclear arms were released to all comers, including China's bomb makers.-

- I believe that this espionage case -- the Chinese -- is the worst in the history of this country. They got just about everything that we have and you'll see it in the out years in their development of their weapons.

- BEIJING (Reuters) - China has launched its first manned space flight from the Gobi desert, Xinhua news agency says, in its bid to become the third country to put a man in orbit after the former Soviet Union and the United States.
- The Shenzhou V, or "Divine Ship V", was expected to orbit the Earth 14 times before returning after about 21 hours.
- Xinhua said the craft carried astronaut Yang Liwei, 38. The launch on Wednesday, 42 years after the Soviet Union put the first man into space, marked a milestone for China's secretive space programme, which analysts say has its sights set on a manned mission to the moon.
