Former President Clinton lost the codes to nuclear war the day the Monica Lewinsky affair broke, was MIA in the fall of 1998 when a decision was needed on the killing of Osama bin Laden, and was "too busy watching a golf match" to OK a 1996 bombing mission in Iraq, says a blockbuster new book by Clinton's former military aide. Lt. Col. Robert Patterson, who carried the nuclear "football" from May 1996 to May 1998, crosses a line no other "mil aide" has before in condemning his commander in chief in Dereliction of Duty: The Eyewitness Account of How Bill Clinton Compromised America's National Security. "This story had to be told." But a Clinton national security aide, William Danvers, tells us Clinton was never "unavailable for key" decisions and didn't jeopardize U.S. security. One story: The day the Lewinsky scandal broke, Clinton was to trade in his "biscuit" with the nuclear launch codes. But they were missing. "We never did get them back," says Patterson. Then there's bin Laden: Clinton ducked calls from the Situation Room to ok a Tomahawk attack in 1998, then waffled until it was too late.
You may be correct as far as the impact this book will have in the short term out in the country. But this is the kind of revelation that will KILL them in Washington. They will pay a heavy, heavy price...and mark my words, this is the kind of thing that will be a huge millstone around their neck in the months and years just ahead.
His punishment is in his future and I imagine there will be "wailing and gnashing of teeth" on that day.
On that we will agree, unless they should repent. Those of those who have watched the man lo these many years suppose, perhaps rightly, that he is so hardened and so cynical that he never will; but only God really knows that for sure..

| From your lips to God's ears. For years, I've looked forward to the days when the Clinton-era DC insiders were free to talk without losing their retirement pensions or worse. We've known this kind of stuff all along, but the general public was clueless. Maybe this book will help. |
That question needs grave research, a serious matter.
He had to remain silent unless he was called by the special council which he never was. I am sure he was chomping at the bits to be asked but never was.
I find just that fact about Starr and the speical prosecutors office disturbing.
There are other books I am sure, however, these I’ve read but none give the answer I am looking for or I’ve missed it - how could these two despicable people come to wield such power over Americans; the answer partly lies with the United Nations and their intrusion/invasion of America under the Clintons and their cronies of Third World leaders.
We came very close to losing our National Sovereignty under the Clintons; fortunately in the last few months, weeks and days, we have seen first hand just how ineffectual and YES slippery that body of nations can be and are. Quite clearly they exist for money and money only, except they call it aid and America is their Goose that laid the Golden Egg. Read what books are on the list you haven’t and keep the quotes coming from these first hand authors – you’ll never hear it from the liberal press or see it on the media. With a nation of Socialist educators, we have a nation of their Socialist students in places of business, government and among our children's parents who are too stupid to see where they have been led by those who oppose the Republic and the democracy for which it stands - they are too illiterate and don't know it. Keep educating them by spreading the truth about Bill and Hillary Clinton, Americas first Socialist President (s).
God only knows.
All we can do is keep working and continue to pray that the truth will out sooner rather than later.
Sometimes a straw does break the camel's back--and this particular book is far more than a straw.
The encouraging thing is that coverage of it came out in a 'mainstream' publication like this.
Treason charges, with capital punishment, will have to suffice.
I have to disagree, TM. He shouldn't have kept mum with the info he had, regardless.
I find just that fact about Starr and the speical prosecutors office disturbing.
I've never been too satisfied with Starr's behavior either, but if he didn't know what Buzz knew....how could he ask questions?
Note: All the material is on .pdf files.
Christ in Heaven men, is a pention worth your honor???
