Politics : Clinton's Scandals: Is this corruption the worst ever?

Some dare call it treason


"The more you look into this business of the
transfer of advanced, sophisticated
technology to the Chinese military, which
seems to be clearly for campaign
contributions, the harder it is to stay away
from words like treason," says House
Majority Leader Dick Armey.

The obvious question that statement raises, of
course, is, "Then why shy away from such
words?"

I've been using that word for some time. It's a
powerful word, a compelling word and an
accurate word to describe what Bill Clinton
has committed, not once, but several times as
president.

We all know about the Loral Corp.'s transfer
of technology that permitted the criminal
regime in Beijing to better target U.S. cities
with nuclear weapons. I believe the
Rosenbergs were executed for a crime similar
in nature, but one which actually left our
civilian population far less vulnerable.

One little fact still overlooked, in fact, to my
knowledge, still unreported by any other
news agency in the world besides this one, is
that Loral was at the time of the transfer and
remains today in a formal business
partnership with the Chinese military. In other
words, President Clinton approved, over the
objections of his Justice Department and State
Department, Loral's use of Chinese rocket
technology to boost sensitive satellites into
orbit when its chairman, Bernard Schwartz,
the biggest individual contributor to his 1996
re-election campaign, was working
hand-in-glove with, arguably, the most
oppressive regime on the planet. Schwartz
was Clinton's first choice, by the way, to be
secretary of Defense.

Another overlooked angle on who owns
Clinton dates back much further. Do you
know who was the largest contributor to
Clinton's first presidential race in 1992? Can
you guess who provided more campaign cash
than the National Education Association, all
other labor unions, any political action
committees and all other individuals and
families? Mochtar and James Riady. And do
you know who the Riadys are? Besides being
Indonesian billionaires, they are strongly
suspected by Clinton's own FBI of being
intelligence agents for Beijing. Their history
with Clinton goes all the way back to his
earliest political days in Little Rock when he
first sought to become Arkansas' attorney
general. Why were these billionaires, so cozy
with the Chinese Communists, interested in
this relatively obscure politician as far back as
the 1970s?

Clinton's long and profitable relationship with
the Riadys raises the question of his motives
behind the federalization of Utah's Grande
Staircase of the Escalante, the largest coal and
mineral reserve in the U.S. The area was about
to begin mining the highest quality coal
available in the world, with a value estimated
to be $1 trillion. The only other coal that could
compete in terms of quality comes from a
mine in Indonesia owned by, you guessed it,
the Riadys.

Then there's the little matter of the former U.S.
Naval Base at Long Beach, Calif. A plan is still
under consideration to turn the base over to
the Chinese Overseas Shipping Co., or
COSCO, a virtual subsidiary of the Chinese
military and a den of Communist spies. Who
was the architect of this incredible plan? The
president of the United States -- Bill Clinton.
The president held two meetings, one in the
White House with his chief of staff and
deputy secretary of defense, to lobby for the
deal. The White House proposed the concept
to local officials in Long Beach.

You want more? Clinton denounces U.S.
politicians who accept American tobacco
money and gratefully takes it himself from a
Chinese government-owned tobacco
monopoly. Clinton hates automatic weapons,
but weeks after a Chinese gun-running
company, Poly Technologies, is caught
attempting to smuggle 2,000 AK-47s into the
U.S to arm L.A. street gangs, the president has
coffee with the head of the firm in the White
House. Clinton hates U.S.-made
semi-automatics, too, but when Wang Jun,
president of that same Poly Technologies,
escorted by Charlie Trie, visits the White
House, the president approves a shipment of
more than 100,000 such weapons into the
United States. Clinton's own staff warns him
off John Huang, an operative of the Riadys'
Lippo Group, yet the president personally
intervenes to get him a top-security clearance
at the Commerce Department. I could go on
and on. But you get the picture.

There is only one logical conclusion to draw
from this pattern. The president of the United
States is, at best, severely compromised by the
Chinese and, at worst, bought and paid for by
them. Either way, it spells the same thing --
treason with a capital T.

And, yes, all you Monica Lewinsky fans and
cigar aficionados, treason is most definitely an
impeachable offense.
