Maybe it was pure bullsh*t.
Maybe it is, lp boonie, but then this was the same author/FBI agent who revealed the “condoms as Christmas tree ornmanets” at the Clinton White House. When that story made the rounds (I lived in DC at the time) it was dismissed as partisan sniping and “obviously” false. Then the Lewinsky/Jones matter broke, and unconventional Christmas tree ornaments were small potatoes in comparison.
The College of Physicians and Surgeons had to sue to get the Hillary Health Care Task Force to make public its records. The Clinton Admin tried to block that, but Judge Royce Lamberth (I believe that was who it was and the correct spelling) ruled that Hillary’s task force, using public moneies, had to make their documents public under the Freedom of Information Act.
So the attitude and secrecy and paranoia and arrogance that typified Hillary’s “birthing” (her term) of a “health care plan” are hardly out of line with what Aldrich recounts here.
