ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (AP) -- Nuclear scientist Wen Ho Lee testified that he was a scapegoat for Energy Department security lapses and never knew why.

Former Energy Department counterintelligence chief Notra Trulock is suing Lee, claiming the Taiwanese-born scientist defamed him with allegations that Lee was targeted because of his race. Lee made his comments Oct. 10 in a deposition under questioning by Trulock's lawyer.

Calling Senators Kennedy, Leaky, Schuemer, Kennedy, Feingold and Feinstein!!!

Where is your outrage on the trampling of Wen Ho Lee's civil liberties? You going to drag Janet Reno's shaky keister up to Capital Hill for a grilling? Hummm?

Well, I think most Freepers have a real good idea "why"--it was so someone higher up, maybe more connected to the Clinton/Reno crime family, could get away with it all. After all, the dems needed whatever campaign finances funds they could raise from the Chinese, and the Chinese, of course, expected something for their trouble. Mr. Lee, alas, was all too convenient.
