"There things that are sacred.

They are worth more than preserving our image in world opinion. If truth and justice don't matter in the USA then what are we defending that's more valuable?"

Oh, you misunderstand me-- I don't think it was done in order to "preserve our image in world opinion"-- I think it was done for what were agreed to be real, valid reasons of national security-- to protect American lives. I do NOT think it was for appearances. Truth and justice are certainly important-- but some secrets just can't be let out-- they're too damaging, too dangerous.

but some secrets just can't be let out-- they're too damaging, too dangerous.

Agreed.

But can you think of a hypothetical scenario for Vince Fosters's death that would be best to keep secret for resons of national security?

The simpler explanation is that x42 had lots of corrupt schemes going on. (*This is known*) People were often killed to keep them quiet. ( Pretty certain also). Foster's death had all the earmarks of an organized crime syndicate getting rid of a liabilty.

All indications were that Vince Foster wanted "out" and Clinton and friend "helped" him. I believe that there was corruption on both sides of the aisle that would have been exposed. RNC operatives like Caspar Weinberger, Oliver North and Bush senior come to mind. I agree that that a deal was brokered to protect the guilty. The scope of it all is the cause of my disillusionment.

Are John Ashcroft & GWB clueless or part of the coverup?

I don't like either choice. I wish there was another...
