Shall we hold our breath until MSM mentions this: And the allegations about Strobe Talbott could prove damaging to the Clinton machine and the Democratic Party in general

Is THIS the real reason The Clinton Duo are so anxious to get back in the WH again?????

Promotes the U.N.

Ironically, Talbott has been about town promoting his own book, The Great Experiment, about the need for "global governance" and expanding the power of the U.N. in foreign affairs. His book ignores the role of Soviet spy Alger Hiss in founding the U.N. but thanks George Soros and Walter Isaacson, formerly of Time but now with the Aspen Institute, for their input on his manuscript.

Talbott also gives thanks to convicted document thief Sandy Berger, Bill Clinton's national security adviser who now advises Hillary's presidential campaign; Soros associate Morton Halperin, formerly of the ACLU; Javier Solana of the European Union; and Bill Clinton, "for helping me better to understand several aspects of his view of the world and America's role in it."


With all of these high-powered connections, the story about Talbott being used by the Russians seems to be a story worth reporting or commenting on. However, if the media examine the charges against Talbott, they might have to deal with other evidence and information in the book about how spies for the Soviet intelligence service manipulated the U.S. media.
