Did you feel the same way when Monica's boyfriend sold missile technology to the Chinese for campaign donations?
For the 1 millionth time:
Clinton didn't give or sell anything to anybody. His administration loosened restrictions on technology exports, and a few things got out that probably should not have.The Republican House of Representatives conducted a full investigation and found that while some information was passed to the Chinese by Loral, it didn't amount to much. The CIA, in fact, said that Loral hadn't given the Chinese much useful information, and even the Air Force said that the material given to the Chinese by Loral had increased their capabilities only incrementally. Loral didn't apply for an "export license" to give the Chinese the data in question. They were working with the Chinese, who had a missile failure that destroyed the Loral satellite it was carrying. The Loral techies faxed them some data that pointed to some ways to improve the missile's reliability and performance. No one in the Clinton administration reviewed this data before it was faxed and they were never asked to do so. No "application" was approved. Also it's worth noting that the Republican House of Representatives elected not to pursue the matter as part of the Clinton impeachment. Learn to use fact not conspiracies. All of you Trumpkins got all pissy when Dems did things like this the Reagon and Bush but I now see it ok in your eyes now.
