I think if you check the latest latest reports, you'll find those stories true. Of course, Big Media probably didn't report it prominently.

The facts are a bit different in the case of the China/Loral connection. Clinton DID go around the department that normally approves the sales of technology and it DID involve his largest donor. Please post if you know of something that refutes those facts.

I agree that the trashing of the whitehouse story has been a bit ridiculous. Note that GWB has seperated himself form this story since the beginning by saying "lets move on". He can't help what some of the politicos do to TRY and make points with the public.

What is frustrating about making points with dems like yourself is the getting an answer to a different question than is asked (although my wife does it too and she's a repub). In this case you are comparing what some republicans have claimed (although GWB did not) is the same as what Clinton did. Also, wrecking a few keyboards (or claiming someone did) is a 1 on a scale of 1 to 10 and selling missile technology to our biggest potential enemy is a 12 or 13 imo.
