I don't want to sound like a tinfoiler, but I have often wondered why THIS SPEECH by Senator Inhofe on the senate floor was drowned out by the Lewinsky scandal????/

Here we have our nuclear secrets going off to China and the media is focused on zippergate. Was this by design?

You are wearing my tinfoil hat! That was the first thread I got a Freeper to post on here for me when I didn't know what I was doing!

I have had this sick feeling for a long time that the Lewinsky story was planted to take the heat off of the Sale of Nuclear Secrets to China and the Chinagate investigation in the Senate and the Cox Report. The whole deal with Linda Tripp and the phone calls with Monica never made sense to me -- something smelled about the whole set-up. But then I think Monica and Bill were more than they let on too!

"and the media is focused on zippergate. Was this by design?"

What did Starr know, and when did he know it?

I don't know how you can be a tinfoiler when it comes to the Clintons. At the very least, I don't think they were that upset that Monica came along and took the focus off of China. It was something they could easily spin, and they certainly didn't care about the cost of dragging it out for seven months.

Of course, they could have leaked it themselves because they knew it was a fight they could win. Wouldn't surprise me a bit!

Also, what was the standard operating procedure when another allegation would surface, even more serious than Monica (I say that because they deceived the public into believing it was about her and not perjury and obstruction of justice)?

Sonething like, "Here we go again, people making up all kinds of allegations that will only tie up the government again. It's a vast VRWC! They're trying at all costs to undo the election! We need to move on and do the work of the American people! These people will stop at nothing!"

Monica was the lowest common denominator in a series of scandals that deflected attention off of the more treacherous ones that would have landed Clinton in jail.

I've tried to print 'THE SPEECH" but it won't print. Any suggestions?

Not to give you a short answer, but, Yes.
