From Congressman Duncan Hunter:
Under the nuclear test ban, computers with extremely high computing speeds are needed to design nuclear weapons using mathematical modeling and computer simulation of nuclear explosions. In fact, the United States spends about a half a billion dollars a year for supercomputers to maintain and improve its own nuclear weapons stockpile. Countries such as China that do not have nuclear weaponry as advanced as ours, have an even greater need for supercomputers if they seek to develop new miniaturized warheads with higher yields.
During fiscal years 1996 and 1997 the Chinese imported 77 supercomputers from the United States under the relaxed supercomputer regime of the Clinton Administration. Most of these computers were exported to China without a U.S. government-issued export license. Computers that were between 2,000 and 7,000 MTOPS (millions of theoretical operations per second) in computing speed could be exported to China and other “Tier III countries” without a license if they were supposedly to be used for non-military and non-proliferation end-uses. Consequently, the United States government did not know the identity of the intended end-users or even that the export had taken place until after the export had occurred. Subsequently, the government found out that some of these supercomputers ended up in locations that were associated with the development of missile systems and other weaponry.

Yep, what a great president. Are you Clinton fans immune to nuclear fallout?
Connecticut Rep. Chris Shays said on a talk radio show Wednesday that, based on secret evidence he reviewed during the impeachment controversy, he believes President Clinton raped Juanita Broaddrick, not once, but twice.
Talk-show host Tom Scott of Clear Channel Broadcasting, New Haven (WELI 960) asked Shays about the mysterious impeachment "evidence room," prompting the GOP moderate to say that Broaddrick "disclosed that she had been raped, not once, but twice" to Judiciary Committee investigators.
Shays, who is often hailed by the New York Times for his independent judgment and good sense, found the evidence compelling:
"I believed that he had done it. I believed her that she had been raped 20 years ago. And it was vicious rapes, it was twice at the same event." Asked point blank if the president is a rapist, Shays said, "I would like not to say that it way. But the bottom line is that I believe that he did rape Broaddrick."
And Shays voted against impeachment!
