Did you know a Commission report exists that exposes ugly, festering Democrat corruption at the highest levels of government?
Did you know that this report might ruin Hillary Clinton’s chances to run for president and even jeopardize her reelection campaign?
Did you know that Democratic Senators Byron Dorgan, Carl Levin, Dick Durbin, John Kerry and Congressman Henry Waxman, with the help of Democratic judges, suppressed key portions of this report?
Did you know that the suppressed sections reveal some of the most obscene abuses of power in the history of the presidency?
If you’ve never heard of the Barrett Commission Report, I’m not surprised. The liberal news media continues to refuse to give the story the coverage it deserves. They don’t want you to know that this unexploded bombshell exists.
Here are the facts:
On May 24, 1995, David Barrett was appointed to head a commission investigating President Clinton’s Housing Secretary Henry Cisneros, who was accused of paying hush-money to his ex-mistress, committing tax fraud, and lying to the FBI.
During the course of his investigation, Mr. Barrett uncovered a scandal that dwarfed the Cisneros fiasco – the Clinton Administration’s use of the IRS and the Justice Department to bully, intimidate, and silence political enemies.
For the next several years, Mr. Barrett and his team – initially alerted to the abuse of power by a whistle blower at the IRS – widened their investigation to include the IRS (headed by Hillary Clinton’s old college chum, Margaret Milner Richardson), the Justice Department (headed by Clinton crony Janet Reno), and the White House itself (headed by co-presidents Bill and Hillary).
The Barrett Report discusses in detail the cases of people whom the IRS and the Justice Department persecuted on orders from the White House. These included women who had accused President Clinton of sexual misconduct and even rape: e.g., Paula Jones, Juanita Broderick, and Gennifer Flowers. All three were targeted for audit by the Clinton-controlled IRS.

Since this was a publicly funded report, and does not affect national security, it should be available under the Freedom of Information Act. Anyone game? Paging Doug from Upland, pick up the white courtesy phone...
Hey, it was worth the $20 I just paid to send out the blast fax and a special message of my own. I'll never give up hoping that justice will prevail regarding the Clintons.
Only through the letter "L". She was exposed before she received M-Z.
Why should we have to make a contribution to have Grassley, Sensenbrenner and the rest of the Republicans do their jobs? Sounds like we would be bribing them.
Everyone be patient. The report is going to be released...it's just that the wheels of justice proceed at a slow pace...somtime after labor day and just before the November elections.
Actually they are not teflon anything. They have a shield, a protector called the MSM. The MSM could villify and probaly have them both imprisioned if they treated them with half the hatred they reserve for reps.
I hope so!
Everyone always underestimates Bush. Don't you know that the dems & MSM can't change the subject and blame any of this on Bush? He's publicly extended the olive branch to the Clintons too many times. It's called rope-a-dope.
Please spend $20 for the blast fax. It'll be the best money you ever spent in order for the Barrett Report to see the light of day.
Is that true or are you joking?
Perhaps in an election year, the time is not ripe... not just yet.
That may be a good ploy. If the report is released too soon, it'll give the dems ten months to "Bork", I mean "Starr" prosecutor Barrett. This way, the dems won't have time to gin up the hatred and lies about Barrett. And they can't start trashing him now because all it would do is call attention to the report and their dirty deeds. Sounds like good rope-a-dope strategery to me!
We need to do our part and let Grassley & Sensenbrenner hear from us, especially if we want this report to see the light of day.
Here is Grassley’s statement upon preliminary review of the report.
"I first want to commend David Barrett for his non-partisan work on behalf of the American public. His job was filled with hurdles and stone-walling, and today’s release is a positive start to giving the taxpayers a look into the last 10 years.
“After a preliminary review of the report, the findings seem very troubling. And, despite the significant redactions, I can see why so many people were fighting to keep the report from seeing the light of day. The Independent Counsel’s statement that his office came upon significant evidencethat Clinton administration officials at the Justice Department and the IRS had acted improperly to prevent the independent counsel from investigating Mr. Cisneros' possible tax offenses is of deepconcern. American taxpayers have a right to expect the federal government to enforce the tax laws fairly and equally. The conclusions cast a very troubling light on the actions of the Clinton administration that suggest that high-ranking officials did not believe the tax laws should apply to friends of the Clinton White House. Proper and equitable enforcement of the tax laws is a bedrock of our nation and faith in our tax system, and I will be reviewing this matter with the highest priority.
“As we continue digging into the details of the report, I'll know just how significant the redactions are and will be able to determine how to proceed in the upcoming months."

The problem is that "citizens and constituents" are often ignorant of the facts, misinformed, and/or apathetic to the circumstances thanks to the MSM. How many "citizens" do you suppose know that have heard ABOUT the Barrett Report? How many "citizens" do you suppose have heard about it, are aware of its scope? How many "citizens" do you suppose have heard about it, know about its scope, and realize its implications? How many "citizens" are going to actively write their congresscritters to request a taxpayer paid-for FULL report?
My guess is less than 1/2 of one percent.
I personally have "hand written, E-mailed, and phoned" the offices of Senators Talent and Bond as well as my rep, Sam Graves. (NO RESPONSE)...chirp...chirp...chirp...
Maybe (I"m hoping) the report's release will be more effective at a later date? (if anyone remembers by that time)
I agree. Plus the "old news" angle plays here too. Served up fresh would be best.
I don't know if this is self-delusion or not but it seems to me that the administration has become pretty adept at using the other fella's momentum to take him out of the play.
Probably wishful thinking.
I agree
Speak for yourself. There is no need to denigrate everyone else.
How did I "denigrate" everyone else?
Everyone always underestimates Bush. Don't you know that the dems & MSM can't change the subject and blame any of this on Bush? He's publicly extended the olive branch to the Clintons too many times. It's called rope-a-dope.
Just W playing poker again.
Too bad that doesn't apply when the leak is of national security information.
