Sandy, your pants gone anywhere interesting lately?
I heard an interview on the Rusty Humphries radio show last night...with Bill Gertz...
He just wrote a book about a LOT of the double agents..and mischief in the Clinton Admin.....(to be fair, there probably is STILL some, he says)...and a LOT of what he talked about had to do with the Clinton Admin.'s China policy...
I am NOT surprised that Berger has a BIG China business...BUT, the scary parts are: 1. In a couple years, he will be able to get his SECURITY CLEARANCE back again...which would 2. Serve him well if HILLARY gets elected.
Did you see that thread I pinged you to about the Clinton's possibly HELPING the radical Muslims in the Kosovo??? and you add that to the thread that was up yesterday about Clintons' relationships in Dubai and Saudi Arabia...and one wonders IF Clinton wanted to get Bin Ladin or not...
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm...Sandy the Burglar seems to have landed on his feet.
I wonder of old Hank had a hand in Clinton's giving our secrets to China, in the past.
