Future
Democrat Party Poster Boy Josh Steiner, in 1994
Joshua Steiner, 28, chief of staff at the Treasury
Department, kept a diary in which he recorded devastating things about
his bosses.
He wrote how the White House put "intense pressure" on Deputy Treasury
Secretary Roger Altman to remain in a position that could protect the
White House.
Then he wrote how Altman "gracefully ducked" Senate questioning on the
matter, even though Altman was under oath.
Steiner also wrote: "Every now and again you watch a disaster unfold
and seem powerless to stop it."
So why does any of that make
Steiner, a Yale graduate and Rhodes scholar, stupid?
Because when asked in the
Senate Whitewater hearings how he could now attempt to backtrack, his
excuse was "I lied to my diary." [Account]
I
remember, like it was yesterday, watching Senate
Watergate hearing
witnesses escape charges of perjury as Sen. Paul Sarbanes deftly
prodded them into more obscure "I don't remember" testimony.
I remember, like it was yesterday, watching Senate Democrats
under the direction of Sen. John Glenn, change the Senate
hearing
into the Clinton-Gore campaign's money laundering racket, into a
call
for campaign finance reform. For his services, Glenn had several
million dollars in campaign debt paid off, and got another ride into
space. But, he lost his soul.
I remember, like it was yesterday, the gleeful
anticipation with which Washington's press corp awaited Harold
Ickes
running rings
around Rep. Dan Burton's committee that was
investigating Al
Gore's Buddhist nun money laundering scheme. He did— by
simply pulling a Josh Steiner; He lied about his own documents.
Why not? He knew Janet Reno would never refer
a House perjury charge to a federal court. He was praised for his
skillful
performance.
I remember, like it was yesterday, because it was, reading
about
Eric Holder's (Janet Reno Jr,) coming appearance before the same
House
Oversight Committee. This time they are investigating him,
and the president.
Investigating their scheme to get guns into the hands of the
Mexican drug
cartels. Why? So that ensuing murders, committed
using those guns,
would be blamed on America's lax gun laws. So that Democrats
could
move to disarm Americans. Ranking member, and Second Amendment
foe
Elijah Cummings (D MD) "released
a 95 page waste of paper
and taxpayer money report,
alleging that top Justice Department officials did not authorize the
program, despite evidence showing otherwise."
America can no longer win a war, or control its borders if
today's
elected Democrats have any say in it. Nor can we return to the
Rule of
Law if they can help it. They are, simply, a
plague.
(Note) This
began as a proper
rant. Proper rants must be ripped off in one breath, and this
was.
All of it in one long sentence. Unfortunately I had to make
dinner, and in the intervening time succumbed to spell checkers,
 punctuation, and links. Sorry.
Ain't worth warm spit now, but trust me. I was livid. . |
