What Clinton didn't say about OKC ~ By Jack Cashill

In this column, Jack Cashill tweaks our fondest memories of the womanizing creep who was called Bubba.

In fact, to the detriment of our national security, the orchestrated Democratic reaction to Oklahoma City shamed reporters and investigators from pursuing Islamic terrorism aggressively.

And the scary thing is that clowns like Clinton are still trying to shame us.

Just when Barack Obama was making us all wax nostalgic for the Clinton era, Bill Clinton goes and spoils it all by reminding us what a uniquely loathsome human being he can be.

On Monday, April 19, Clinton penned an impressively vile little op-ed for the New York Times, which memorialized not so much those who died at Oklahoma City, as those who exploited the hell out of it to save his presidency.

One of those was my radio partner. On April 19, 1995, I was co-hosting a point-counterpoint radio show on Kansas City's leading AM station, KMBZ. The show aired just before Rush Limbaugh, who once worked at this station. The Oklahoma bomb detonated just as we were going on the air.

My partner and I followed developments closely. Early police reports and intelligence briefings led us all to believe that the bomb was the work of Islamic terrorists.

But when the police identified Timothy McVeigh and Terry Nichols as suspects two days later, my partner, a wily and well-connected Democratic strategist, was absolutely gleeful.

He went on the air and issued an All Points Bulletin for McVeigh's "co-conspirators, Rush Limbaugh and Newt Gingrich." He claimed that their hate speech and talk of revolution inflamed the allegedly right-wing McVeigh.

My partner was simply following the DNC talking points. Democrats, the president included, were spreading this same unholy message all across America.

Clinton was more subtle than his supporters. He merely blamed the "purveyors of hate and division." His supporters filled in the blanks.

Clinton did much the same this past Monday. "As we exercise the right to advocate our views, and as we animate our supporters," he said shamelessly, "we must all assume responsibility for our words and actions before they enter a vast echo chamber and reach those both serious and delirious, connected and unhinged."

Clinton was a master of strategic grief counseling. He descended on Oklahoma City with an approval rating in the low 40s and left town with a rating well above 50 and the Republican revolution buried in the rubble.

Late in the 1996 campaign, he would confide to reporters that his road back to the White House began in Oklahoma City.

The truth was much more complex than Clinton pretended. In fact, every witness who identified McVeigh in the minutes before the blast put a short, foreign-looking, dark-skinned man in his passenger seat.
