How often do we need to rehash the Clinton/Bush years?
“Earlier today, I ordered America's armed forces to strike military and security targets in Iraq. They are joined by British forces. Their mission is to attack Iraq's nuclear, chemical and biological weapons programs and its military capacity to threaten its neighbors… “Other countries possess weapons of mass destruction and ballistic missiles. With Saddam, there is one big difference: He has used them. Not once, but repeatedly. Unleashing chemical weapons against Iranian troops during a decade-long war. Not only against soldiers, but against civilians, firing Scud missiles at the citizens of Israel, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain and Iran. And not only against a foreign enemy, but even against his own people, gassing Kurdish civilians in Northern Iraq. â€The international community had little doubt then, and I have no doubt today, that left unchecked, Saddam Hussein will use these terrible weapons again. " Speech from the Oval Office by President William Clinton, explaining his attack on Iraq reported by The Associated Press Wednesday, December 16, 1998 http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-srv/politics/special/clinton/stories/clintontext121698.htm Bill Clinton was impeached on December 19, 1998. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ENAV_UoIfgc President Clinton orders attack on Iraq in 1998 Do a google video search on "democrat wmd" to see how many Democrats insisted that Saddam had WMD, all the way back to Al Gore in 1992. Arthur Levitt, Jr. was the longest serving head of the SEC. Do a Google search on him, see what pops up. He was appointed by Clinton in 1993 and again in 1998. He left in 2001, so he covered the entire Clinton administration. Levitt gave Madoff a free pass because they were both members of the Harmonie Club, a social club for the ultra wealthy in NYC. Madoff was first reported to the SEC in 1992: http://www.guardian.co.uk/business/2009/sep/02/bernard-madoff-sec-report Report: Regulator was tipped off about Madoff fraud as early as 1992 "a suspicion of trouble at Madoff Investment Securities arose as early as 1992 when customers of Avellino & Bienes, a fund that invested all its money with Madoff, complained about documents making a seemingly impossible promise of "100%" safe investments. Although the SEC shut down Avellino & Bienes, the agency only made a "brief and very limited" examination of Madoff." Avellino & Bienes was shut down by the SEC in 1993, the year Levitt took charge. Levitt also gave a special exemption to Enron, exempting it from accounting rules. This special exemption led directly to the Enron scam and the subsequent meltdown of the company, which took down a major chunk of the economy with it. It also led to the discovery of similar fraud at many other companies, fraud that got its start in the Clinton years. If I was going to pick one individual who was most responsible for the rampant fraud of the Clinton years, it would have to be Art Levitt. How many times do we need to go over this before the libbies can remember it? They seem to keep forgetting...
