Magnequench, Weapons Technology with a nice little bow on top. Thank you Clinton!

While I'm sure Hillary is having a lot of fun making the 3 am ads that tell you Clinton will keep you safe, but what makes you think she will? And could it be that the biggest threat to our National safety may be Bill Clinton himself? Surely can't feel safer because of the deal with Magnequench in 1995. Indianans might remember Magnequench, a Valpariso company that worked with Rare Earth magnets. Rare Earth magnets are used for among other things, as a main component of guidence systems in smart bombs.

In 1995, Clinton allowed for the sale of Magneguench to a consortium of comapnies which included two Chinese firms. According to the Clintons NOW, they had been assured the company would stay in the US. In 2003, that consortium moved Magnequench's production to China. You might think that if they had been "assured" this company would not move that they would have protested loudly, especially considering that we were in a war on terror and all. But there was stunned silence and only now are the Clintons saying anything about the Chinese assurances. So in essence Bill Clinton gave the Chinese our weapons technology in a nice neat package.

Now, Clinton supporters might scream "Bill's not running!" and they'd be right. But if we look at the same six degrees of seperation game we play with certain reverends, Hillary Clinton is directly advised and occasionally may be intimate with the man who sold our weapons secrets to rather large foreign country who also holds a lot of our national debt. Now she wants to scream at Indiana voters about Bush letting Magnequench go but the ink on the sale papers dried under Bill's administration. Kind of makes you wonder who is running things over in Clinton Land somedays.
