****sigh.....When will this a**hole go away?
What I would like to see when Klinton comes aboard the ship that the entire company simply and silently turns their back to him while in formation. What a statement that would make to whole world.
It will take a lot of Lysol to clean the stench out the People's House (White House) after this jerk is gone.

You can find the price of freedom, buried in the ground.

Here is the reply from mr Congresscritter:
Hello:
This is regarding the UNFOUNDED RUMOR that President Clinton will visit
Vietnam and China, and that he plans to fly the American flag BELOW the
Vietnamese flag on an American Naval ship in accordance with Vietnamese law.
THIS IS AN UNFOUNDED RUMOR THAT MUST STOP NOW!
I have spoken with White House officials. They UNAMBIGUOUSLY state the
following:
1. There are no plans at this time for the President to make such a trip.
2. If he were to make such a trip, there is no way he will alter Navy
regulations requiring that the U.S. flag always fly above any other flag.
According to an official with the National Security Council:
"The White House position is: U.S. Navy regulations prescribe that no flag
will fly higher than the U.S. flag aboard a U.S. Naval ship whenever that
vessel is under way. The President fully supports this policy and has no
intention to direct any changes."

This is the problem with Klinton....there is no limit to how low people will assume he will stoop. Dipping the U.S. flag to the flags of organized criminals, murderers, and oppressors is such a Klinton thing to do that I find it hard not to believe it. If it isn't true, I'm sure Klinton wishes it were. If you wanted to give the country an enema, you'd have to stick the tube right down that f**kers throat. When will this nightmare end!!!

Gentlemen:
In case you might have missed it, here is the catch in the NSC officials statement: "...whenever that vessel is under way."
Now they have given themselves an out. When the ship has tied up, they will lower the US Flag in relation to the Vietnamese flag and their statement is still correct. Linguistic manipulation has always been one of their little tricks.

It just happens that we asked Phil that very question.
(e-mail quote)
Phil; There is one detail that I wish you would clarify. The White House
statement describes the flag policy when the ship is under way. What would
the policy be when the ship is docked in a foreign port? As the Clinton
White House is famous for double speak and partial speak , I believe this
clarification is necessary. Again, thank you and Representative Shows for
your service.(end quote)
We await his response.

Keep us posted on what your congressvarmint says.
Bear in mind that ClintonClintonandGore will at times completely drop a plan when it gets exposed to the public. Clinton may have dropped it because he was caught with his cigar in a humidor.
Question. since when does a congressvarmint shill for the whitehouse?????????? Where does the whitehouse say the rumor is unfounded.

I feel like a broken record, but check www.snopes.com, the urban legend reference database. This story is listed under "currently circulating," and, as is the case with most such tales, is false.

The problem is that with this guy you Could believe it.. Any how how do we know that it isnt true???? Certainly not because he denied it !
Example of denial: "I did not have sexual relations with that woman Miss Lewinski"
Reason why we dont accept his denial: He is a lying sack of spit.(I said spit instead of xxxx for the children).

Uhhhh, extensive research maybe? Documentation? And besides, what would they have to gain by trying to debunk actual news items? I don't see what there is to be skeptical of here.
