Why Bush Justice rolled over for Sandy Berger

As I watched these events unfold two years ago, I presumed that the Bush DOJ chose not to exploit these stories for reasons of national security. Although seemingly unrelated, both of these stories lead to the same larger secret, a secret that Berger risked his career to conceal, a secret that if revealed had the potential to destabilize the nation during a time of war.

As I have since learned, however, the Bush White House is not fully in control of its own Justice Department and FBI. In truth, the decision to protect Berger may have more to do with saving the Clinton legacy than with stabilizing the nation.

Ping!

[Txsleuth]

I read that today...and was just as angry,..but since I am babysitting, I couldn't ping you...

This is exactly the "shadow government" that has been talked about on Frontpagemagazine.com....David Horowitz.

BTTT

[Txsleuth]

I heard on the radio today that the 6th person is entering jail today...over the Enron scandal.

Now, I realize it was bad..and hurt a lot of people financially..and they all should have been busted...but,

IF Pres. Bush's Justice Dept could get THEM, with their power and influence, and money...then we KNOW that there had to be some reason that Berger got off so easily...because what he did was VERY BAD!!

I had forgotten about Salinger. Here's a link:

The ring of ungodly protection. Cosa Nostra, Ph.D.

You have to think back to the eighties.

Remember when the Horsefaced One went to Nicaragua with his little committee to investigate certain 'fund raising' activities by a certain three letter federal agency?

I suspect he was 'read in' to the overall goals of the program.

Now Berger served as an adviser to Carry plus he can embarrass GHWB and Slickmeister? Too much horsepower there.

I'm surprised that this Administration didn't 'Travelgate' all the witnesses (destroy their credibility) and ignore the whole thing.

..."Let's hope our next President - Duncan Hunter - will not have to make nice with the cronies of his predecessors - from both parties."


Amen!

Duncan Hunter looks like a fine rep for us.

Thanks for the ping, STARWISE!

And why hasn't Bergler been indicted??? Why should a Rat get preferential treatment???

Bush can't indict anybody.

Although it's pretty obvious, no one, and I mean no one will believe it, not even Jack Cashill.

Let's see, we have bombings, we have an airplane shot down with what hundreds of people say was a missile, and we call it a conspiracy theory.

We have the 9/11 Commission with one of Clinton's people who had to be on the Commission (Jamie Gorelick).

We had Sandy Berger stuffing TOP SECRET documents in to his underwear and stealing them as he was preparing for the 9/11 hearings.

So you ask WHAT WERE THEY TRYING TO HIDE?

Isn't it OBVIOUS that the bombing, the airplane shootdown with what HUNDREDS of witnesses say was a missile were terrorist attacks sponsored by a foreign government? The government was Iraq. Jayna Davis spelled it out clearly in her book, THE THIRD TERRORIST. John Lehman during the 9/11 hearings holds up her book and tries to make sense of it all, but he fails miserably, because the unthinkable happened.

Clinton simply made the decision that YOU, the American public, was not going to be told that this was terrorism. Instead, it's a center fuel tank explosion. Instead, it's a right wing nut case named McVeigh, even though the truck bomb was too small to have destroyed the Federal Building in Oklahoma City. And we have to ignore the dozens of witnesses who swore they saw McVeigh and Nichols in the company of EIGHT IRAQI defectors from GULF WAR I. What did the government do with these Iraqis who cheered when the Federal Building was blown up? Nothing, not one thing.

Now you can't believe it's true that President Bill Clinton ORDERED Federal Agencies to ignore and surpress all ties to Middle Eastern terrorism in those couple of incidents, but he clearly did just that. You try to figure WHY the Military raised hell about ABLE DANGER being publicized. You can't figure out for sure WHY we invaded Iraq. You can't because you don't believe that the ties of terrorism lead back to Iraqi attacks against the United States.

Crazy Theory? Tell me something else that explains hundreds of people taking out a full page ad in 2000 that accuses the FBI, the NTSB, the CIA of lying. They say they don't know why, but they know the government is lying.

WHY?

Because Clinton did NOT want to fight Iraq in the mid 1990's. Peace, prosperity, re-election. There are still people writing letters to the editor saying they miss Clinton. The problem is that Clinton did NOT take care of business, he let and encouraged the problem to grow into 9/11.

And Bush can't let you know either, the truth is unbelievable but the consequences might be more severe than anybody can predict. So we play these games and we listen to our press wonder, trying to explain what in actuality is very simple: Clinton screwed us royally a decade ago.

[Lancey Howard]

I agree in spirit with most of what you say, but frankly, it's basically old news around here. We know that Clinton was a corrupt snake in the grass who failed miserably to address the terrorist threat and who, in fact, actually enabled the 9/11 attacks with considerable help from Gorelick.

What I kept looking for as I read your post was your explanation for why the Bush Justice Department is as corrupt as Clinton's was, and even more importantly, why Bush is apparently too weak to do anything about it.

Well, I'm with you on why clinton didn't want this exposed, and I'm with you on the continuing problems in the FBI, which was complicit in many of these things. But why is Bush playing the game?

[STARWISE]

How would word getting out about what we all clearly know .. how badly the Clintons hurt us .. hurt Bush?

[MarkL]

Cashill's articles have some interesting theories.

He was a terrific radio talk show host. He used to host a show in KC. Unfortunately, they paired him up with this moronic raving moonbat named Mary O'Halerin, and at best, she was just annoying.
