Audacity of Truth
Whiner-in-Chief:
"[W]hether the grumbling is about Republicans on Fox or bloggers in pajamas, there's a word for what the president and his aides are doing. That word is "whining." And nothing [...] does more damage to Obama's credibility or authority than the sense that a popular president is becoming the whiner-in-chief."

Former FBI Director Louis Freeh Slams Clinton
Freeh has a book, scheduled for release next week, titled My FBI : Bringing Down the Mafia, Investigating Bill Clinton, and Fighting the War on Terror. Mike Wallace from CBS’ 60 Minutes has apparently interviewed Freeh and Drudge has an inside scoop on the interview:
In the book, “My FBI,” he writes, “The problem was with Bill Clinton — the scandals and the rumored scandals, the incubating ones and the dying ones never ended. Whatever moral compass the president was consulting was leading him in the wrong direction. His closets were full of skeletons just waiting to burst out.”
Moral compass? Clinton? Do the words "moral compass" and "Clinton" even belong in the same room with each other?
Drudge goes on to report:
The director sought to distance himself from Clinton because of Whitewater, refusing a White House pass that would have enabled him to enter the building without signing in. This irked Clinton. “I wanted all my visits to be official,” says Freeh. “When I sent the pass back with a note, I had no idea it would antagonize the president,” he tells Wallace.
Returning the pass was only the start of the rift. Later, relations got so bad that President Clinton reportedly began referring to Freeh as “that F…ing Freeh.” Says Freeh, “I don’t know how they referred to me and I really didn’t care,” he says. “My role and my obligation was to conduct criminal investigations. He, unfortunately for the country and unfortunately for him, happened to be the subject of that investigation,” Freeh says.
I can’t wait to read this book. We all know Clinton’s abuses of power were rampant, and that the guy could probably teach a college course on it. Unfortunately he got away with most of it. Thankfully, former Clinton admin officials like Freeh are willing to go on record in discussing what a worthless leader Clinton really was and that’s a good thing for a number of reasons, tops among them being to keep the ex prez. and his minions from successfully re-writing his utterly corrupt legacy.

I will be interested in reading this book now. Mainly because it certainly seemed that while he was FBI director, Mr. Freeh appeared for all intents and purposes to be the Clintons’ lap dog.
I wonder why people like Freeh are coming clean about Clinton instead of resigning in protest of what Clinton was doing when Clinton was breaking the law.
I also posted this.
I remember some friction between the two but it was never played up like the MSM would do now if there were friction between Bush and anyone in the same kind of position.
Not being a mindreader, I have no idea what all Freeh’s after by writing the book. Making a few bucks is probably one reason, and what’s wrong with that? He has a family to support. Stephanopoulus did it and even included a few backhands at the Clintons. Some of what Freeh reveals must hit close to home, as the usual Clinton apologists and demonizers have come out of their [rat] holes to blister Freeh as a terrible Bush supporter and closet Republican. If it comes to a choice between believing the Clintons and Freeh, well…we already know who are serial liars, don’t we.
Brian, this lengthy diatribe of yours will not get posted. This is the second time you’ve outright insulted me at my own blog by saying that I don’t care about my country and by saying that I’m irrational. The first time you insulted me was by implying that I was a racist. I urge you to rethink some of the things you post before you post them. Disagreement with me is one thing. Insulting me is another. –ST
