RICHARDSON MUST RESIGN!

It Is Time For Monica Lewinsky "Greaser" To Go

LOSS OF SECRETS AT LOS ALAMOS RISE TO LEVEL OF CRIMINAL OFFENSES BY CLINTON-GORE ADMINISTRATION

(Washington, DC) With the recent revelations of the loss of still more nuclear secrets in Los Alamos, coming on the heels of previous debacles concerning Wen Ho Lee and others, it is time for there to be some accountability. During the Clinton-Gore Administration few, if any, public officials have lost their jobs over the continuing and growing scandal culture; most notably Secretary of Defense William Cohen and his press secretary, Kenneth Bacon, who released government Privacy Act secrets to smear Linda Tripp. However, the loss of virtually all of our nation's nuclear secrets during this Administration renders even the Tripp outrage minor in comparison.

Secretary of Energy Bill Richardson, who previously narrowly escaped prosecution for being Bill Clinton's "greaser" in the Monica Lewinsky scandal (through making personal visits to her Watergate condo and offering her jobs at the U.N., obviously in exchange for keeping her mouth shut), must immediately resign and face potential prosecution for the loss of nuclear secrets. Given the Clinton-Gore Administration sympathy towards Communist China and Castro's Cuba, it is not beyond the realm of possibility that foreign or other agents were allowed into the lab and that these agents purloined these secrets. If Richardson knew or should have known that this is what occurred, he should also be indicted, just like Wen Ho Lee.

"It is not beyond the realm of possibility that Clinton-Gore Administration officials have participated either knowingly or negligently in the compromise of U.S. national security for the benefit of foreign countries. Recent revelations that the Clinton-Gore Administration was in bed with Fidel Castro over the Elian Gonzalez matter, the proven illegal contributions from Communist China into the Clinton-Gore campaigns, and the ‘turnstile' acceptance of Communist arms dealers and intelligence officers in visiting The White House, all point to the likelihood that the Clinton-Gore Administration has worked, either knowingly or negligently, with foreign and/or domestic agents to compromise the national security of the United States -- all in exchange for campaign contributions and other ‘under-the-table' benefits," stated Judicial Watch Chairman and General Counsel Larry Klayman.
