--> Did the US Supreme Court just elect John McCain?
Clinton is certainly right that it is a tragedy that 200 American jobs were killed in a corporate deal that also exported sensitive military technology to China. But she forgets to mention that it wasn't George Bush who was in the key position to stop it -- it was Bill Clinton.
If guilt by association is your cup of tea, then read on, because I have a couple doozies to share with you!

In early January 1996, three weeks after having attended the
Christmas reception at the White House, Cabrera was arrested
and charged with importing 6,000 pounds of cocaine into the
United States on boats through the Florida Keys. Late last year, he

Drug Smuggler Made Clinton Donation in Cuba, Investigators Say
By DON VAN NATTA Jr.
New York Times
April 4, 1997
MIAMI -- Jorge Cabrera, a drug smuggler who has emerged as
one of the most notorious supporters of President Clinton's
re-election campaign, was asked for a campaign contribution in
the unlikely locale of a hotel in Havana by a prominent Democratic
fund-raiser, congressional investigators have learned.
The investigators said the fund-raiser, whom they identified as
Vivian Mannerud, a Cuban-American businesswoman from Miami,
told Cabrera at a meeting at the Copacabana Hotel in Havana that
in exchange for a contribution he would be invited to a
fund-raising dinner in honor of Vice President Al Gore in an
exclusive enclave near Miami.
Ms. Mannerud owns Airline Brokers Co., an airline charter
service that operates among Havana, the Bahamas and Mexico.
On his return to the United States several days after that
meeting, in November 1995, Cabrera wrote a check for $20,000 to
the Democratic National Committee from an account that included
the proceeds from smuggling cocaine from Colombia to the
United States, said the investigators, who spoke on condition of
anonymity.
Within two weeks of the contribution, Cabrera met Gore at the
dinner in Miami. Ten days later, Cabrera attended a Christmas
reception at the White House hosted by Hillary Rodham Clinton. At
the events, Gore and Mrs. Clinton posed for photographs with
Cabrera, who has two felony convictions dating from the 1980s
and is now in a prison here on a drug-smuggling conviction.
I want to mention this as this is my FUNDRAISING DAY --
David Sirotta, Dan Van Natta, AND MIchael Rivera use this blog as source material.
In the Michale Rivera case (and Chris Floyd, too) - they tell people to STAY AWAY
for this blog. Sure, then they can make money off my work, cherry picking the
work I do.
They never even say thank you. They don't give me a dime. Where do you think
That Sirota got that Carlos Slim picture? Have a guess.
So give me a dime. Do it today, or they don't get to cherry pick me
because there won't be anything left to cherry pick; this blog will be
GONE.
A sorry loss for everyone, in my honest opinion.
Virginia
The coffeecup is right down there.
contribute, please.
I want to stay alive so that my story can be told!!
I need your help!!
See peterfpaul.com
My story is even worse since I don't have a family to bail me out.
These little notifications will be on every blog item I post until I get
enough money to stay afloat.
Don't let SEXISM carry the day anymore.
I am a GREAT investigative journalist, I deserve a break,
I really do.
I'd like to get my shot at writing a book too.
I have a long list of great books I COULD be writing.
And they might ACTUALLY help humanity instead of feeding
Bashers who haven't been out in the streets and on
the TRUTH circuit for forty years like I have.
