Get off Gravy train i am rather tired of letters such As bad attitudes april 4in which a German family member criticized the attitudes of americans in Europe.

Absolutely yes. The Metal is by definition what we Are required to Doto be successful during a War. Does he think that Drill and ceremony of uniform appearance will impress the enemy into submission i would bet that the writer does t even know the full Metal for his unit. To come up with Quality training study the entire Metal along with All supporting tasks and find areas in which you Haven t trained recently.

Commentary by Paul Craig Roberts some people including some als Are arguing that in Light of the Clin tons commitment to guaranteed health care for All and to taxing the Rich the Whitewater scandal is just a Flea on the Back of a cow simply not important in the scheme of things. This View is mistaken. It is liberals after All who believe in the administrative state. But for this version of Good government to work government Agen cies have to be insulated from politics. Clinton cronyism both in Little Rock and Washington undermines Liberal Confidence in the regulatory apparatus. For example the Friend of Bill Over seeing the Resolution Trust corporation Roger Altai an saw As his first duty to warn the White House of the upcoming criminal referral of Madison so with its connection to Clinton s gubernatorial Campaign committee and Whitewater development corp. This was a breach in the Independence of the Etc. The liberals Case for big govern ment also depends on openness in government. But with the Clinton facts have to be pried put by relentless pres sure. They dribble out one at a time subtly changing the Story. Without con Gressional hearings and an aggressive Media the Public will never know the full Story because the special prosecutor s full report which is not a Public document will be based on secret grand jury investigations. Liberals believe too much in govern ment not to be outraged Over its use for self dealing. How can the Clinton undertake to regulate our health care if they can t regulate their own behaviour this is a Rhetorica question but it is not meant in a partisan Way. Nor has it yet been evenly vaguely established that any thing illegal has occurred involving the Clinton -.-,. A v but if government is organized for the Benefit of those who run it then the concept of the Public interest becomes hol-low.-,. Truthfulness is also at stake. The Clin tons campaigned against greed and against Corner cutting fast Buck artists however luring the greed decade Hillary piled up $1 million in investments and income for her family. The ways in which she acquired these assets Are no fully disclosed. For example the records show that mrs Clinton opened an account for $1,000 on oct. 11,1978, and made $5,300 on that investment the., next Day. There Are those who question whether she could have done this without favourable treatment. To have made $5,300 that Day mrs. Clinton would have needed to hold at least 12 contracts valued at Over a Quarter of a million dollars. To speculate on that level Wall Streeter say she would have needed $-14400 in her account. / /.-. Someone they say was bending the rules for her. If that is True then Why would anyone Bend the rules for a then Young woman making less than $25,000annually As a lawyer a person they think does t have to believe in conspiracy theories to see a political connection. At that time her husband was Arkan Sas attorney general and on his Way to becoming governor Why concern ourselves with some thing that happened 10 or 15 years ago we worry because it is an indication of character and More questionable acts show up later. According to newspaper reports an unnamed investigator for the Etc named Clinton s 1984 gubernatorial Campaign committee As a suspect in the criminal probe of Madison so. Report edly at least one investigator suspects that the Campaign May have conspired to illegally Benefit from depositor funds diverted from the so. There Are also suspicions by competitors that Clinton gave the state s Bond business to those who financed his subsequent campaigns for governor and presi Dent. All in All the Clinton approach to government does Little to inspire Confidence in government. For liberals that s a problem. A Scripps Howard news service anal a tag 6ukukx. That s right Mark.
