The W. Post damaged national security by reporting the Lewinsky affair

[bluestateguy]

They exposed a private relationship between the president, the most powerful man in the world, and a young White House employee. Their careless exposure of this incident embarrassed the president, made him look bad in front of other countries and needlessly distracted his attention away from the nation's business, which included national security matters. It resulted in the Secret Service being forced to testify under oath as to the private actions of the President, which set a dangerous precedent. I call upon the Justice Department to launch a full scale criminal probe of the Washington Post for damaging national security.

1. Absolutely true

And since Clinton took Al Qaeda seriously, even actively sought to decapitate it (in 1998), one could say that the impeachment onslaught and media frenzy -- all for a small lie about a sexual affair in the oval office -- led to 9-11.

But perhaps the impeachment, and where it led, was what was intended all along. If so we can only call the operatives in these affairs what they are, traitors.

3. I often make this argument

I tell Republicans that maybe, just maybe, if they had been busier working on legislation to protect our airports instead of being a bunch of perverts snooping into Bill Clinton's sex life, we would have protected ourselves better from Al Quaeda.

2. And Whitewater was a terrorist sting operation

And the bastards blew everyone's cover before it could complete it's work.
