I can't believe no one's talking about this new scandal - of historical proportion with potentially catastrophic consequences. Al Gore illegally conspired with the Russians to keep Congress ignorant of Russia sales of nuclear technology to Iran.

In a classified "Dear Al" letter obtained by The Washington Times, Mr. Chernomyrdin told Mr. Gore about Moscow's confidential nuclear deal with Iran and stated that it was "not to be conveyed to third parties, including the U.S. Congress."

But sources on Capitol Hill said Mr. Gore withheld the information from key senators who normally would be told of such high-level security matters.

The Gore-Chernomyrdin deal, disclosed in a letter labeled" secret," appears to violate a provision of the Nuclear Non-proliferation Act, which requires the Clinton administration to keep congressional oversight committees fully informed of all issues related to nuclear weapons proliferation.
