Aside from Mostly-Fraud’s corruption (hoarding a large stash of her elderly mother’s money while allowing Medicaid to pay her mother’s health bills, among other things), one of her aides, Susan Lindauer, has been charged with spying for Saddam Hussein. Moseley-Braun, when questioned about Lindauer, denied even remembering her, an obvious lie. She would remember her own aide. She could have at least said, “I know her but I don’t know anything about the spying.” But she was more interested in covering her own ass than in condemning a spy for Saddam.
Wasn’t there also a scandal involving an African national she was dating that was involved in bloody tribal politics back home? Something like a former war criminal, cleaned up and acting as a DC lobbyist, tied in with one of those drugged child/cannibal armies? And massive unpaid phone bills from calling back to Africa? I think she tried to pull a string or two for him.
I know, it sounds like one of those black helicopter conspiracy nut stories, but was the Clintoon years. After Ms. Mosley-Braun lost her reelection campaign Old BJ shipped her off to be ambassador to some little country that had never done us any harm, Luxembourg or new Zealand or something, got her out of the papers and pumped up her resume. Now the lickspittles in the media can call her Madame Ambassador whenever she gets a headline in the “local” section.
