<<Just assuming the worst allegations were true (which I am not conceding), the real issue for me was the spin that those in charge "looked the other way" as some sort of pandering to somebody's special interest, etc>>

The spy was ignored or at least put on hold, sensitive technology was shifted from the State Department to the Commerce Department so Loral could sell it to the Chicoms. At the same time the Chinese Military was donating $300,000 to Clinton. Jeez, was that coincidence "absurd"?

The notion that there was some diabolical menace up there pulling the strings, when it was likely just an oversight, was just absurd.

Now that's ridiculous even for you. The charges are that Chinese obtained every single nuclear weapons system we have including the designs for our most advanced miniaturized multiple warhead. if true, that's one hell of an "oversight." Add that to the fact that the country whcih obtained the information seems to have made a number of contributions to the Chief Executive and even your small mind would have to admit there's a coincidence there that needs a closer examination. Add that to all the people who fled or took the fifth when the campaign cash matter was investigated and things really start to stink. JLA
