THANKS for posting Zhang again .....
YES, he always nails it .....
If I recall correctly, Zhang is the one who coined the phrase: 'I declare from henceforth, my political writing shall be considered a blood sport' .............. this is NOT an exact quote ... but conveys the sentiment.

While Bush appointed great leaders to the Departments of Justice and State they can't get anything remotely positive from those agencies while Clintonian lackeys are obstructing progress. Ashcroft and Powell need to kick some lazy butt around like Donald Rumsfeld has in the Department of Defense(insert Ric Flair "Whooo" here). Don's the man.
I would love nothing better than to see a certain someone biting their while the rope is adjusted and the drop recalculated.

lip. I swear this keyboard is through. Biting his lip and probably thinking about how hot that witness looks through the window. Mrs. Foster? Remember that time...

And the Republicans? They sat on their asses and did nothing.

Evidence that the Chinese don't only pay Democrats. You could almost see the frustration in the faces of the younger Republicans going after Clinton with the only weapon they were allowed. They knew what Clinton was guilty of; if we knew it, they most certainly knew it; but they were never allowed to mention it publicly.

The Lewinsky affair became the weapon of choice because it wouldn't cause any collateral damage among Republicans. But going after Clinton for his Chinese connections very well could have unintended consequences. We know Alexander Haig and Kissinger were involved in the Long Beach business from the Chinese side, and Kissinger at least is deeply embedded in Chinese ventures. Bush Sr seems to have some Chinese exposure.

The often repeated line that the Lewinsky affair "didn't rise to the level of impeachment" was, in my opinion, perfectly true. It didn't. The Constitution is very clear; impeachment follows when a president is guilty of bribery or treason.

But both bribery and treason could be easily and reasonably inferred from Clinton's dealings with the Chinese. He met with the head of China's weapons industry more often than he met with Monica. The Democrats have never denied receiving the money from China, and they have never denied the favors that Clinton did on China's behalf. They only deny that there is a connection between the two. There was, they say, no quid pro quo. In one universe the money is given and received, and in a completely separate but parallel universe the technology is transferred. But since the two universes are parallel, there is and can never be any provable connection between the two.

But of course, while they can not be faulted for saying it, we are not required to believe it. Which brings us back to the question of why, having Clinton dead-to-rights on both bribery and treason they would stoop to a Clinton-sponsored, Reno ordered, $50 million dollar investigation into his recreational pursuits while allowing them to bottle up the non-investigation of Chinese espionage inside the Justice Department. Where, despite the change of administrations, it remains hermetically bottled even today.

And the answer is that China does not only invest in Democrats. Starr was a good soldier, and obeyed unto destruction. Senior Republicans were spared an unwelcome intrusion into their private financial affairs, and the younger ones were left bewildered by the betrayal of their elders. Clinton's felonies remain protected by the misdemeanors of his enemies; you can't bring him down unless you are willing to bring down your own with him.

"The whole thing boils down to the Clintons' corrupt nature and their absolute lack of patriotism."

What is the author talking about? Why, nobody I know is more loyal to Communist China than Bill and Hillary Clinton. Lack of patriotism my foot.

Great article and front and center reminder about the EX-TRIMPOTUS.

ESPECIALLY NOW THAT SOME MAROON IN NORWAY IS PUSHING FOR CRINTON TO BE THE NEXT HEAD OF NATO!!!

Hey, Mr. Impeached President - we know you had Ron Brown murdered. I'm confident all of your evil will be exposed you traitorous, murdering, intern-boffing, communist, raping pig.

(Whew, I must have been due.)

Mr. Zhang once again tells it like it is.

Thanks for the ping. Anything written by Peter Chang is always worth the while to read.

The Democrats are no longer a party that could hold within its ranks Americans of such integrity as Scoop Jackson. Anyone worth their patriotic salt has long since abandoned the "win at ANY price" party.

I only hope to hear its death-knell in my lifetime.

Thanking the Lord for His intervention in the decision of the SCOTUS in 2000, and the Florida patriots who stormed the doors during the ballot stealing and prevented the further destruction of this country by the Democratic Party, led by Al "Buddhist Temple" Gore.

No offense to honest Buddhists intended.

Anyone know Peter Zhang's history? Enjoyed his writings for years but I have no idea what he does, where he lives (Australia?), where he went to school and his ties to the mainland.

Don't you realize that they were just trying to make other nations equal militarily so that our military dominance wouldn't, and couldn't, be maintained.
Military dominance can't be allowed in today's interconnected, "global" world. Simply evening out the playing field, as it were, making all things equal.
(do I need an /sarcasm or did I make the point?)

Thanks for the post and ping!

It will be interesting how history paints Clinton. Hopefull the revisionists will stay away and let the reality of a disgraced administration come forth.

He sure hits the nail on the head -- and I hope that when future historians talk about Clinton's legacy, they will know the truth about his treasonous nature.

Revisionists, be gone!
