When anyone asked about the Chinese money connections, the Chinese espionage connection,..., they would be told that this was being investigated by Justice.

A capsule review of the PBS "Clinton" documentary:

The Clinton Chinese connections (remember Riady, Hwang, Trie, Chung, etc.?) were conspicuous by their total absence from the PBS documentary reviewed by the New York Slimes broad in the posted article. Dittos for Clinton's mysterious trip to Moscow in 1969-70 as an Oxford student, Ron Brown's strange death, the presence of prominent Republicans' FBI files in the Clinton White House ("Filegate"), the federal government's kidnapping and eventual deportation to Cuba of young Elian Gonzalez from his uncle's Miami residence, the sacking of the Branch Davidian compound in Waco, the end-of-term Clinton pardons, and the end of term vandalism of the White House by Clinton staff. Of the interviewees appearing in the film, the large majority were Clintonista Democrats and the only elected Republicans among them - Trent Lott and Peter King - had just about nothing critical to say about him (unless, perhaps, in some material that was edited out). The Vince Foster death was nonchalantly "resolved" as a "suicide" - as insinuated by Bernie Nussbaum's tale of alleged "depression" and a "suicide note" found days later in the White House (in real life, but not in the film, later shown by three world-class handwriting experts to have NOT been written by Foster).

Little doubt from this perspective that the PBS film portrayed Clinton as more of a tragic hero than the completely immoral villain he really was. Not surprisingly, what was produced was consistent with the political biases of the producers.

BTW, to the best of my knowledge, the "Clinton" film is still available for Internet viewing via pbs.org .

I wonder if the name Juanita Broderick will surface?

No mention of her or Katherine Willey or a lot of other Clinton women in the PBS film. But I have one nice thing to say in the defense if the "Clinton" producers: To do a thorough review of all the known Clinton sex scandals with appropriate interviews would require at least another four-hour documentary!

Please see my post # 23.

Bill Clinton is a sex addict.

Yes, but more than that, a rapist. And even worse than that, most likely a murderer. (Remember Vince Foster? Remember the "Arkancides"?)

I understand your interest in the Balkan mess, but at least they mentioned it in the film, though they didn't get it straight. The film was most conspicuous for its lack of mention of a bunch of very important domestic events, events that could only make Clinton look like a tyrant commanding a government out of control.

We have always been at war with Eurasia and will always be at war with Pacifica.
