Angry Hillary threw book at Secret Service agent

WASHINGTON – In a fit of rage, former first lady Hillary Clinton threw a book at a Secret Service agent, hitting him in the back as he was driving her here in a limousine during the 1996 campaign, former Secret Service officers and agents tell WorldNetDaily.

She accused the plainclothes agent of "eavesdropping" on her conversation with another passenger in the back seat of the limo, the agents say. The missile she hurled was a painful message for him to mind his own business.

Hillary Rodham Clinton

"The book hit him in the back, and it wasn't lobbed – she was angry," said a retired uniformed Secret Service officer familiar with the incident.

"She was under the impression that he was eavesdropping on her conversation," he added. "Here he's the driver, but he was eavesdropping? I don't know how you get around that."

He said there was no center divider in her vehicle.

"It was in a limo," he said. "There's no separation in hers, not the one she was in."

The veteran officer, who helped coordinate security in advance of President Clinton's trips, says the book was in the back of the limo. "It was something that she was carrying."

He said both Clintons viewed Secret Service personnel as "Republican spies," since many of them worked in the previous Republican administrations. And they were "very skeptical of us."

Another retired Secret Service veteran, a plainclothes agent assigned to Clinton's security detail, corroborated the book-throwing account. "Yeah, it's true," he said, without elaborating.

Though retired from the service, both White House veterans have found jobs in the Homeland Security Department, and they asked that their names be withheld. Attempts to reach the driver assigned to Hillary's protective detail, also retired from the service and working in another federal agency, were unsuccessful.

A Washington Metro Police detective also recalled hearing of the incident at the time, adding that the former first lady "was pretty sh--ty to the Secret Service guys."

Phone calls to Clinton's office were not returned. The New York senator is on a book tour.

The Secret Service officer who did presidential advance said she often spoke in "unacceptable language to officers and to agents."

He said the lack of respect stemmed in large part from an overriding suspicion allegedly held by the Clintons that agents doubled as Republican plants, relaying dirt to the first couple's political enemies.

Cutting security posts

"When they came into office, because the Republicans were in for so long, they thought everybody in the Secret Service was a Republican spy," said the Secret Service veteran, who calls himself an Independent.

Soon after they took over the White House, the Clintons had agents removed from sensitive areas and permanently eliminated their posts, he says.

"They requested specific posts be removed so that agents in the uniformed division were out of earshot of the conversations," he said.

"For instance, inside the mansion itself, I know of at least two [posts] that were relocated," the former agent added. "One was relocated away from the residence; one was relocated away from the Oval Office."

He said Secret Service brass told agents to keep an "arm's distance," as much as they could, from the Clintons.

"Even on details, they wanted us where we weren't visible," he said.

"We were all spies, all spies. I mean, it was a big joke," he said. "We were giving each other secret names, like 'Agent X, it's time for you to be relieved from your post for right now,' as if we were Soviet agents or something."

The former first lady is said to be considering a run for the White House in 2008.

Her alleged book-throwing tantrum does not fit the cool and controlled demeanor the freshman senator conveys in public.

But early in the Clinton administration, Newsweek reported that Hillary had thrown a lamp at the president in a fit of anger. She later denied the incident took place while suggesting, ironically, that the Secret Service spread the story

I’m sorry but if I were that agent, at that moment in time, my career, my badge and going to jail would have meant nothing to me and I doubt there would have been enough fellow agents around to pull me off that witch.

Judge: “Agent Smith, how do you plead”?
Me: “Guilty your honor AND DAMN PROUD OF IT”!!!

The statute of limitations isnt out either...

That is a federal crime. If you don't think so just assault one of those agents and see what happens.

Laws dont apply to Democrats

This woman is Evil, but to no avail. She did all these henious things and yet she is still a senator in NY with millions of dollars rolling in.

She is truly teflon. A Pubbie makes one random comment and allows themself to be drummed from office. We should learn from her and stop kowtowing to special interests, ie. Trent, etc.

This story has been in several books about Hillary, as well as their total paranoia about the SS and FBI agents being spies. Only people with a lot to hide would behave like this. Someday the real truth will be told of the damage to our country done by this couple, but not in our lifetime. We nearly lost this country.

it never ceases to amaze me.

When I was a cop, I was spit on, hit with claw hammers, stabbed, and any one of a million other things. Once these things happened, the uniform came off and I did what I had to do to protect myself.

Why some evil wench thinks she is above the law and can assault and batter a law enforcement officer ( who she views as a private driver) is beyond me.

I was once asked in college if I believed America was becoming an 'Imperial Society". I said yes.

This proves the point. If Joe in the projects hit a Secret Service agent, he would be gone for 20 years. If Hillary does it, she is a martyred saint. Go figure

Seems to me the agent could have driven Ms. Daisy to her destination, then contacted the local police to file a complaint against her. Imagine the look on her face as she exited her event to find herself being interviewed by officers in front of the press.

Neither of the Clintons are fit for office. Neither are fit to be in any position of authority or to be left alone with children. They are completely without morals.

Every time I hear a story like this I'm astonished - again.
That our First Lady would curse, or throw things at a person charged with protecting their very lives, is just shocking.

Can you imagine First Lady Laura Bush even speaking harshly to someone who works in the White House?

The answer is the true definition of the word "Lady".
