Well put!

Comparing RET's comments on the Clinton Chinese connection and the recent running arguments over the Russians' attempted resurgence, one can turn back the clock and start to note some interesting waypoints to ponder.

In 1993 when the Boy President first met Boris Yeltsin, the meeting was polite and seemed promising. But as Yeltsin and his interpreter were leaving, Yeltsin turned and muttered soto voce to the other, "Sotsialist." Good call, Boris.

When the Russians then implored the U.S. to provide them aid and assistance in setting up a capitalist form of economy, the Clinton administration went out of its way to either ignore them or send people who were going to be offensive to the Russians and thus ignored. It would seem that the Boy President, probably aided and abetted by his spouse, the future HRH Hillary I, to punish the Russians for giving up on "The True Faith," according to HRH Hillary I.

Then the Chinese connection rose to national scrutiny and the usual Clinton attack machine responses to beat it back, including missing witnesses, defected donors and other lapses of memory or ethics which got them off the hook.
