Clinton and CIA drug-smuggling through Mena, Arkansas....
Find it hard to believe that the CIA has been busy flooding America with cocaine surreptitiously imported through Mena Airport, Arkansas? Find it incredible that President Clinton, apart from his main job of selling America to the Communist Chinese, has been actively pursuing a part-time vocation as a cokehead in preparation for his role as guardian of America's nuclear trigger?
Well, out of a wealth of abundant written resources and evidence, all virtually ignored by the main-line press, we've selected the following pertinent and highly-illuminating quotes from Roger Morris' brilliant and fascinating 526-page book, "Partners In Power: The Clintons And Their America", a book which we highly recommend you order and read if you truly want to see where America is headed under Bill and Hillary Clinton!
[Roger Morris, incidentally, won rave reviews for his previous book, Richard Milhous Nixon: The Rise Of An American Politician, and has also been honored with both a Guggenheim fellowship and the coveted Bronze Medal for the finest investigative journalism nationwide. He holds a doctorate in government from Harvard University, served as a foreign service officer, and acted as senior aide to Dean Acheson, President Lyndon Johnson, and Senator Walter Mondale.]
Meanwhile, in the remote pine-forested Ouachita Mountains, some 160 miles to the west on the Arkansas-Oklahoma line, in country once the refuge of border bandits and anarchists, local officers happened upon suspect air traffic, stores and truckloads of weapons, and even Spanish-speaking strangers carrying out military exercises in camouflage uniforms. Nearby a local IRS agent and state police investigator glimpsed the sillouette of a multibillion dollar gunrunning, drug-smuggling and money-laundering operation, an enormous criminal traffic carried on for at least five years with what the U.S. government's own documents secretly record as the collusion of organized crime, the Central Intelligence Agency, and other Washington institutions. By their sworn statements, couriers for the operation carried duffel bags stuffed with cash into local Arkansas banks, then watched as obliging bank officers apportioned the money among the tellers for cashier's checks, each transaction just under $10,000 to evade the IRS reporting requirement.A tentacle of the Iran-Contra scandal, and only part of a larger, still darker underworld of national security policy run amok, the vast crimes were effectively sanctioned by Ronald Reagan's White House and later covered up by George Bush's. Yet what went on in the Ouachitas in the 1980's was essentially condoned as well by a third and future president then sitting in the Little Rock statehouse, where the drugs and intrigue were topics of avid interest and frequent discussion among the governor and his state police escort. The episode was destined to be known for the obscure town where the principal smuggler and government operative based his aircraft, a tiny Arkansas county named Mena.
[And...]
On one of the 1983-84 videotapes filmed by local narcotics officers, Roger Clinton [Bill Clinton's half-brother] was said to tell a supplier jauntily, "Got to get some for my brother. He's got a nose like a vacuum cleaner." Years later, after the suspicious murder of her husband, Jane Parks, the resident manager of an expensive Little Rock apartment complex, would tell Ambrose Evans-Pritchard of the London Sunday Telegraph that during the summer of 1984 Roger Clinton had been a non-paying guest there for two months. The governor was "a frequent visitor", the Telegraph reported. "There was drug use at these gatherings....and she [Parks] could clearly distinguish Bill's voice as he chatted with his brother about the quality of the marijuana they were smoking. She said she could also hear them talking about the cocaine as they passed it back and forth." As at the mansion, there were said to be numerous women, often strikingly young. Tenants complained of the noise made by the partying Clinton brothers in B107.There would be still others to substantiate similar accounts. A teacher and social worker named Sally Perdue would describe similar occasions in her late-1983 affair with Bill Clinton when he would smoke marijuana and use cocaine regularly, pulling joints out of a cigarette case and shaking cocaine out from a small bag onto a table in the living room. "He had all the equipment laid out, like a real pro," Perdue told a reporter. Still another witness, a convicted drug drug dealer and informant named Sharlene Wilson, who was a bartender at Le Bistro nightclub in Little Rock, testified to a 1990 federal grand jury in Arkansas that she had sold cocaine to Roger Clinton as early as 1979 and had watched, at both Le Bistro and at the infamous toga parties at the Coachman's Inn on the outskirts of the state capital, as Roger passed the drug to Bill, who "would often snort cocaine."
[Before Clinton's half-brother's indictment on charges of drug distribution and conspiracy, itself the result of courageous action by dissident state-troopers who refused to countenance a cover-up..].
"I don't think she [Hillary Clinton] ever knew how much coke Bill had snorted with Roger or how many girls they'd done together," said one state policeman, "But we knew she'd tell him to feed ole Roger to the feds for the sake of his career, and that's what he ended up doing."
[Which had the following perhaps not-unexpected result...]
Clinton called a press conference for a brief statement with no questions, reading his remarks red-faced and "visibly shaken," as a reporter noted. "My brother has apparently become involved with drugs," he said with irony and hypocrisy only a few insiders could appreciate, "a curse which has reached epidemic proportions and has plagued the lives of millions of families in our nation, including many in our state."
[And after Roger's finally unavoidable arrest and conviction, we get this gem...]
"I feel more deeply committed than ever before to do everything I can to fight illegal drugs in our state," Bill Clinton said in a rehearsed statement outside the courtroom as his half brother was taken away.
[And, finally, by way of summary...]
"I think he's an habitual liar. He's done it all his life, and it's just business as usual," former close aide and fund-raiser Bert Dickey would say later, echoing a judgement that began to form for many in the 1983 maneuvering. "I don't think he's got a conscience. He can be true-blue one minute, and the next minute you're out of there." At the same time, aides and others found an imperious double standard. A legislative assistant thought Clinton "very casual about the truth yet very scrupulous about what somebody else told him."
