Grifter Memoirs John LeBoutillier Tuesday, April 29, 2003 Bill and Hillary have done it again. They have each scammed millions from their gullible, liberal – and hopelessly naïve – publishers. As you may recall, Hillary scored first right after winning her U.S. Senate seat two years ago. She signed a publishing contract with Simon & Schuster that included a whopping $8 million advance. And, in typical Clinton fashion, she signed it before being sworn into office, thus skirting Senate ethics rules. She then used her first payment – $2.1 million – to buy her Washington, D.C., house – where she entertains and raises millions for her fellow Democrats. And, of course, this is all part of the Clinton Master Plan: to elect Hillary in 2008 and thus allow Bill to live again in the White House and to run the government behind the scenes. Meanwhile the clock began ticking on actually writing the book. And, again in typical Clinton fashion, Hillary has repeatedly missed her deadlines. And – again no surprise – she has reneged on her promise to spill the beans on the details the book-reading and book-buying public want to read: l'Affair Monica, Paula Jones, Gennifer Flowers and all the rest of the Clinton scandals. Simon & Schuster is said to be furious over her refusal to include the material that will sell the book and earn back the huge advance they contractually agreed to. Meanwhile, over at Random House, they shelled out $12 million to Bill Clinton for his memoirs. And guess what? He hasn't written any of it yet. Word is that he can't write his memoir until Hillary writes hers because they have to then square their stories! Isn't this typical Clintonism? They are treating their books like works of fiction. And they are treating their two publishers as they have always treated their business partners, friends, staff and constituents. In each case, the Grifter Clintons scam, steal, rip off – and then move on to the next unsuspecting sucker. And the founder of the Counter Clinton Library, Dick Erickson, said, "What fools would pay $20 million for the memoirs of two people who can never ‘recall’ anything and who always ‘lose’ or ‘misplace’ key files and documents?"

Loral's chief, Bernard L. Schwartz, was the single biggest contributor to the Democratic National Committee in 1996, giving $632,000. At the time Loral received its waiver, the company was under criminal investigation by the Justice Department for allegedly having provided China Aerospace with highly sensitive information on how to improve its missile guidance systems in 1996. The Justice Department opposed the Loral waiver, fearing it would jeopardize the criminal investigation. But the White House not only overruled Justice, it rejected the unanimous recommendation of the State Department, the Defense Department, the CIA and the National Security Agency. "It is absurd to suggest that there was political or any other influence on the shaping of U.S. policy on this issue," National Security Council spokesman Eric Rubin said this week. No doubt, like Clinton, he believes the decision was made in "the best interests of the American people." jewishworldreview.com
