Truman, Thank you for the Loral links. I was sorry to hear Bob fall
into the "they all do it trap". No President has the technical
background to determine if a waiver would involve sensitive material.
That is what the State department employs experts for. The prior two
administrations had waiver recommendations from their State
departments . Clinton's State department recommended no waiver
for the specific technology Loral wanted to export. This is a huge
difference. Clinton needs to explain why he overrode his State
department experts. This is a stretch but Clinton's reckless behavior
leaves him wide open to blackmail.

Best regards,

Duke

TB: RE: <Schwartz knew enough about the Washington game to give one million dollars>

You mean you don't believe Mr. Schwartz's assertion that Loral's generous contributions had nothing to do with the decision to permit shipment of highly sensitive technology to China ? ? ;-))

Crony capitalism. Isn't that the system that is currently collapsing in Indonesia ? Are we headed in that direction thanks to an indifferent public ?
