ANOTHER GHOST FOR GORE
Is Al Gore looking nervously over his shoulder? He should be -
because the lingering campaign-finance scandal from his 1996
re-election effort is catching up with him, even if the
mainstream media have lost interest.
Two bombshell revelations this week underscore the need to keep
this issue alive, despite hysterically disingenuous cries of
"partisanship" by congressional Democrats.
First, the House Committee on Government Reform released a memo -
kept secret for nearly three years - by FBI Director Louis Freeh
warning that Janet Reno's Justice Department was turning a
deliberately blind eye to Gore's involvement in fund-raising
illegalities.
According to Freeh - a Clinton-Gore appointee - Reno was ignoring
"reliable" and "compelling" evidence of Gore's active involvement
in illegal fund-raising. That evidence, he noted, conflicted with
Gore's own testimony - and suggested that Reno was wrongly
accepting Gore's version at face value.
"In the face of compelling evidence that the vice president was a
very active, sophisticated fund-raiser who knew exactly what he
was doing, his own exculpatory statements must not be given undue
weight," Freeh warned.
He also called for a total overhaul of Reno's fund-raising
investigation - switching the targets from low-level bit players
to the very top of the administration: President Clinton and a
"core group of aides." That's because, Freeh noted, "most of the
alleged campaign abuses flowed directly or indirectly from the
all-out efforts by the White House and Democratic National
Committee to raise money."
Freeh's advice was ignored.
That's understandable - two top FBI officials have testified to
Congress that the head of Reno's public integrity section, Lee
Radek, told them he was under pressure to save the attorney
general's job by not appointing an independent counsel to
investigate the fund-raising scandal.
In fact, when Freeh learned of Radek's remarks, he wrote Reno
that they "would be enough for me to take him and the Criminal
Division off the case completely." Once again, his warning was
ignored.
Now the same House committee has disclosed that every single
e-mail originating in Gore's office from March 1998 to April 1999
has disappeared - despite federal law requiring them to be
archived. Gore's office blames a mysterious "technical
configuration error."
That might seem reasonable - had it not followed an earlier
disclosure that the White House refused to turn over thousands of
subpoenaed e-mails dealing with everything from Monica Lewinsky
to Filegate.
And that officials at Northrop Grumman, which administered the
White House computers, said they'd been threatened with "jail" if
they told anyone about the e-mails, which had been redefined as
"classified" documents.
The coverup now underway by this administration rivals anything
seen during the Watergate era. Except that this time the national
media have lost interest - and no agency in Washington can be
trusted to investigate it.
So it falls to George W. Bush and the GOP to start holding the
veep's feet to the fire. There are important questions that need
answers.
