This is outrageous and should be in an Obama mailer.

President Clinton and Vice President Gore visited East Liverpool while campaigning for election in 1992; at that time, Mr. Clinton said that, if he were elected, WTI would never be allowed to operate. But the huge incinerator began burning hazardous waste in 1993.


Mr. Clinton has not returned to East Liverpool since he became President in 1992.

WTI failed part of its test burn in 1993, releasing four times more mercury than allowed. Children at the elementary school were tested for mercury in their urine prior to WTI operation and again six months after the facility started burning as part of a state health study. In the first test, 69 percent of the children tested negative; the follow-up test found that nearly the same number tested positive.

I wonder if the would have allowed this if Chelsea was attending this school. Such caring for the children of America - how heart warming.


I can't wait to hear the defense of this.

1. You're Calling Out A Clinton For Lying?

2. To me this is more than just a lie. It deals with the health of children.

If a Republican had done this, this board would be outraged. So where is the outrage? You get a pass because your a Democrat? This is a example of what bitter partisan politics has done to this country. Anything is okay as long as it's a member of my party doing it.
