Where did you provide evidence of this, beyond saying that it was so?
From: cnn.com :
BLITZER: All right, let's move on then to China where I'm sure are you more than happy to comment. Is there any hard evidence that you know of, that president Clinton made decisions involving national security, sales, exports of US satellite technology to China, in exchange for campaign cash that originated in China?
GINGRICH: Well -- the way you described it, there is clearly no hard evidence at this stage, and I wouldn't want to venture to talk about that.
and:
LANNY DAVIS, FORMER WHITE HOUSE COUNSEL: Well, there should be an investigation to bring the facts out. This is a case of politicians jumping to conclusions before the facts. I think the speaker acknowledged that.
Here are three facts to consider of what we know. Number one -- this is a decision based on a policy that Ronald Reagan initiated, that George Bush himself granted nine waivers since the Tiananmen Square incident. And this is about a right policy, about putting satellites on Chinese missiles and allowing American technology to be protected, but still to take use of that missile ability to get our satellites into space. |
