Hillary Rodham Clinton to Repeat History
No, not Hillary Rodham's Book "Living History," but John Kerry's history of concealment--also, known as "lying history," for which the Clinton's are so skilled. Surely, you remember that former Presidential candidate John Kerry (D-Mass) agreed to release all of his military medical records for public scrutiny but still has not done that. He just needs a little more time, but we gave up long ago on counting the days. Now, the next likely Democrat nominee for President, Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-NY), has some records from her White House days that are locked away, and she might also need a little more time to open them. Of course, neither one has anything to hide. Why would you think that?
Archivists say the former first lady's documents at her husband's
presidential library won't be released until after the '08 vote.
Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton cites her experience as a compelling reason voters should make her president, but nearly 2 million pages of documents covering her White House years are locked up in a building here, obscuring a large swath of her record as first lady. ....
But, if Hillary Rodham Clinton has nothing to hide, she will open up those records--just like John Kerry did. Right? It's not like those files are lost like the Rose Law Firm records that were suddenly found, years after being subpoenaed, in, of all places, the White House. Remember that?
After nearly two years of searches and subpoenas, the White House said this evening that it had unexpectedly discovered copies of missing documents from Hillary Rodham Clinton's law firm that describe her work for a failing savings and loan association in the 1980's....The release of the records is the latest of several instances in which the Clinton White House has declared a document search to be exhaustive, only to later stumble on important material. For example, White House officials initially said that Vincent W. Foster Jr., the deputy White House counsel, left no indication of why he committed suicide on July 20, 1993. But later, an aide found the remnants of a note describing Mr. Foster's disenchantment with Washington. ...
But, HRC will claim that it's not her fault, as seven years after leaving the White House is still not enough time to organize and destroy review critical files. Maybe if she is elected, she can appoint Sandy Berger to be in charge of the National Archives to expedite that.
Know what? Senator Rodham Clinton is going to be pressed for those files by her opponents, and the mass media will give her a pass on this. After all, electing a Democrat is more important than journalistic integrity. Who would have guessed?
So, we might have eight more years of Clintonese lying, back-room deals, pardons, and payoffs ; but, I bet that no one will accuse her of having an affair with a White House intern. No one needs a favor that badly.

"Gosh, Folks, someone from the General Services Administration (the drones that do much of the skut work for the government) must have misplaced..oh..about a zillion boxes of personal papers." Sure, Mrs. Clinton. We buy that, and we also buy that your husband is an entirely honest and completely truthful man....forget what the federal court judge said and the fact that he was disbarred.

She did, however, offer to autograph copies of her book...
