High-ranking members of Bill Clinton's national security team have joined together to defeat Pennsylvania Republican Curt Weldon's House re-election bid this November - in what looks like retaliation for Weldon's efforts in exposing the Clinton administration's Able Danger scandal.
In June 2005, Weldon went public with news that Clinton administration lawyers prevented the Defense Intelligence Agency's Able Danger group from blowing the whistle on two al-Qaida terrorists who would later pilot the planes that destroyed the World Trade Center.
Though the media downplayed Weldon's bombshell, a number of high ranking Clinton officials apparently haven't forgotten - and they're pouring money into the campaign of Weldon's opponent, Joe Sestak.
According to the Philadelphia Inquirer:
Former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright has given $500 to Sestak.
Disgraced former National Security Advisor Sandy Berger has given Weldon's opponent $1,000.
Disgraced ex-Clinton CIA director John Deutch gave $500.
Former Clinton Navy secretary John Dalton ponied up $500 to defeat Weldon.
Former White House Chief of Staff John Podesta - $300.
Berger's predecessor as national security adviser, Anthony Lake - $500.
Even Hillary Clinton has gotten into the act, contributing $2,500 to defeat Curt Weldon.
$500 donations are "pouring money into?"
U.S. Rep. Curt Weldon called yesterday for Democratic opponent Joe Sestak to return $350 in campaign contributions from Mary O. McCarthy, the CIA investigator fired last week for allegedly leaking classified information to the news media.
Bet The Honorable Weldon kicks their ...well you know.
I don't know. To be honest, it doesn't sound like very big contributions to defeat someone who's been making them look so bad.
I need an address, and so do the rest of us to send $$$, Were close to winning this thing, and rats can't get in the way. Do thoes leftie rats ever stop?
The list of the Clintonista contributors.
Almost like signing a confession.

At that paygrade you gotta reeealllllyyyy hate somebody to can him. Anybody know what Sestak's issue was?
This is going to be some battle this year in PA. Get a popcorn concession.
Who told this pig, Clinton that he could have a "national security team?" Looks like this is a job for the CIA or the FBI. Someone needs to find out what Slick Willie is up to.
Thanks.
"the more interesting side of this story is how Sestak left the Navy. The Navy got a new Chief of Naval Operations and in less than 24 hours he relieved Sestak of his duties ..."
It sounds like this guy is a total a$$hat. I have heard some of the same with people that had to have audiences with his royal greatness.
What does that mean? My prediction is that this guy is a Clinton buttshark with a temper that shouldn't be too hard to raise to the surface. It just needs to be done in a public venue.
Here you go ( http://www.militarycorruption.com/mullen.htm )
"It took the new Chief of Naval Operations, Admiral Mike Mullen, less than 24 hours to dump one of the most disliked officers among the Navy's top brass. Vice-Admiral Joe Sestak, an arrogant and obnoxious "bully-boy," who delighted in being rude and unreasonable and getting away with it, found he was expendable the minute his mentor went out the door.
"Rumsfeld 'yes-man' and weaselly politician Vern Clark will not be missed by many Navy personnel. In fact, hopeful messages are flooding the office of MilitaryCorruption.com that "maybe, somehow," the Navy has finally gotten a CNO who will "put sailors first" and correct the many mistakes of his predecessor.
"It was Clark, a leftover from the Clinton Administration, who promoted Sestak to his third-star and made him deputy chief of naval operations for Warfare Requirements and Programs. Those who dared to complain about Sestak's abusive "management style" were ignored or punished.
"By sacking a previously untouchable top-ranking admiral, Mullen has fired a shot across the bow to others like Sestak that their days are numbered too.
"All this can only improve morale. We 'salute' CNO Mullen for having the courage to do the right thing. It would have been much easier to leave an out-of-control martinet like Sestak in place and not rattle any cages."
are you watching NBC's law and order...outing an undercover cop someone's named 'dana'
I've read that webpage as well, but didn't really know the source.
Isn't that the shadow Presidency that's been in place since January 20th, 2000? From the looks of things, Clinton still thinks he's President and our current President doesn't do anything to dispell that notion.
