LAS VEGAS — President Clinton conceded Sunday that the administration mistakenly obtained the FBI files of more than 300 people, including many top Republicans, in late 1993 as the result of a "completely honest bureaucratic snafu" involving security clearances.

His chief of staff, Leon Panetta, told reporters that "obviously a mistake was made" and apologized to the people whose FBI files wound up at the White House. Clinton did not apologize directly, but said "I completely support" what Panetta said about the affair.

Evil people the Clintons are. Just downright evil. No conscience at all. Probably demon possessed. Both BJ and Hillary. Sick sick scumbags who belong in prison.

I haven’t forgotten. Nor have I forgotten Sandy Burglar (typed in my best Rush Limbaugh voice) stealing records from the National Archives to protect the Clintons from the 9/11 commission. His only punishment was a $10K fine and a 3-year suspension of his security clearance.

Where are the FBI pre-dawn raids knocking down doors, shooting dogs and hauling folks off in handcuffs in their nighties?

FBI Files Fiasco
After congressional Republicans discovered that the Clinton personnel security office improperly collected some 700 background FBI files of Republicans — including former Secretary of State James A. Baker, former National Security Advisor Brent Scowcroft and former spokesman Marlin Fitzwater — many in Washington thought the Clinton White House faced its most serious ethical crisis yet.

It is best practice to preface the title of the post with "FLASHBACK: "

If you ever get a chance to watch the movie “Wild in the Streets” then you’ll see where Clinton got the idea for this.
