Clinton Hit with White House Coke Allegation

At least five witnesses have given published accounts alleging knowledge of Bill Clinton's cocaine habit while he was Governor of Arkansas (see: Media Mum on Clinton Cocaine Witness List). But that was all long ago and far away, right?

Not so fast.

Now a new witness has apparently emerged charging that the President of the United States has coked-up right there in the White House.

The explosive charge is reported in Wednesday's Investor's Business Daily:

"There is also a new allegation that Clinton, who insists on keeping his medical records secret, snorted cocaine while in the White House -- specifically in the East Wing theater, where he, staffers and friends are known to regularly watch movies.

"'We have it on extremely reliable authority that according to the Secret Service, the president has used cocaine in the White House theater,' said Judicial Watch Chairman Larry Klayman. 'The impression is that it [Clinton's alleged coke use] continues to this day.'

"He would not elaborate other than to say Clinton was observed allegedly snorting coke with others. Klayman's source is a new, walk-in client of Judicial Watch, a public-interest law firm suing the White House over several scandals." (See Investor's Business Daily Main News Page, click on Press' 2 Standards on Coke Issue.)

Is there any other evidence of Clinton coking-up inside the White House? You be the judge.

According to presidential biographer Richard Reeves, Clinton "tries to avoid heavy lifting or meetings after he has taken his allergy shots because he is so punchy; he has trouble thinking coherently." (New York Times, Nov. 3, 1996)

What's in that allergy medicine, anyway? That's what onetime White House physician Dr. Burton Lee wanted to know before he was instructed to inject Clinton with a vial of the stuff in 1993.

Here's how NewsMax.com covered the incident last October:

"There have been substantial questions raised about the true nature of those injections. The New York Post's Andrea Peyser reported in September 1996 that during the first week of Clinton's presidency an unusual package with an Arkansas postmark turned up in the regular White House mail. It contained a vial of 'mystery serum,' as Peyser described it, labeled as allergy medicine. White House physician Burton Lee was instructed by Clinton's appointments secretary, Nancy Hernreich, to inject the president with its contents.

"But the world-renowned Lee refused to do so. He told Peyser that the vial was inadequately labeled and that, in any event, he would not inject the president with anything without first checking Clinton's medical records.

"Lee was told that Clinton's Arkansas doctor, Susan Santa Cruz, had his medical file. But when he called Santa Cruz she told him she would have to check with Hillary Clinton first before she could release the records to Lee. Lee expected that Santa Cruz would do just that, and that Hillary would quickly order her husband's file released to him.

"He was wrong. Just one hour after his phone call to Santa Cruz, Burton Lee was fired from the Clinton White House. An unnamed Army doctor relieved Lee and apparently injected Clinton with the 'mystery serum' without checking his medical file. Lee told Andrea Peyser, 'There isn't any doubt in my mind that the person who fired me was Hillary.'"

Then there's Monica Lewinsky, who knows a thing or two about the president's personal habits. She reportedly told Linda Tripp that Clinton sometimes seemed to "zone out" on her. "I think he's on drugs," concluded the White House intern, after many hours of up close and intimate contact with the alleged First Cokehead.

This allegation is nothing new, Jennifer Flowers said on the Larry King Show and on The Rush Limbaugh Show, and Hard Ball, that Bill was a cocaine user. He even offered to get cocaine for her and she declined because she was not into that type of thing. Bill's brother has or did have a cocaine problem. She suggested that people visit her website for all the details.

And where, oh where, has the mainsstream press gone?

Covered up the Clintons' corruption and evil, just like they've always done....

Before the lab results of 'the stain' found on the blue dress had been made public, I was given information from a highly reliable source working on the hill that traces of an illegal substance had been found. I couldn't help but notice Perot's rabid attack of Clinton along those same lines and wondered if he had recieved the same information as my source. When you consider the widely publicized use of cocaine as an aphrodisiac, and then add that to the widely publicized sex life of president Bill, would anyone actually be surprised? Sheeeeese.

Naturally, these accusations have been vehemently denied by people who work for him.

The sad thing is that this guy is adjacent to the football, yeah I can see it now, wassup, we got incoming? hahahahahahah, jeezz, is the russkies or the slitty-bous, hohohohohohohoh

Maybe it's time to institute mandatory drug testing for politicians as well as heavy equipment operators...

Just a thought. But it COULD cut down on the number of candidates...

Clinton is pathetic. *sniff*

-- Randolph (dinosaur@williams-net.com), September 02, 1999.

As Billy's brother, Roger, stated in the early '90's..."He's (my brother, Bill) got a nose like a Hoover vacuum cleaner"...now that slick willie is lame duck, Westinghouse, GE, Disney, and Time-Warner can all gang up on him because they have nothing to lose. My question is, where's Rupert been for the last 7 years?

-- Uncle Bob (UNCLB0B@Y2KOK.ORG), September 02, 1999.

"Well, yes, but I didn't inhale!"

<:)=

-- Sysman (y2kboard@yahoo.com), September 02, 1999.


Klinton should have inhaled. Then he would have tossed aside his gargantuan, supra-Presidential ambitions in favor of listening to Pink Floyd, Hendrix, and the Dead, and tuning in to "inner space."

-- coprolith (coprolith@rocketship.com), September 02, 1999.

Bill and Roger maintained an apartment in Little Rock where they would meet, do drugs, and entertain women on occasion. According to their landlord at the time, who gave an interview to Ambrose Pritchard, paramedics rushed to the apartment in the wee hours one morning to haul an unconcious Gov. Spooty to the emergency room where he nearly died from an overdose of some drug or combination of them. The nurse who treated Slick has also made a statement in the past but now refuses to talk further. It seems her safety and that of her children has been threatened . All of this should be regarded as a national emergency in normal times by any sane population. It no doubt explains many of the Pres's insane risk-taking personal behaviors. Firing the White House doc. for requesting his medical records? My God, if that's not a tip off what is? And how is this lunatic going to react when the merde hits the mixmaster in 2000? Beam me up fast Mr. Scott!!!!!!!!!

-- doktorbob (downsouth@dixie.com), September 02, 1999.


Bill John as they used to call him. He also snorted the white stuff, some say. But who'd believe hookers? Mostly, they don't wear dresses.

-- joe (eat@joes.place), September 02, 1999.

Does anyone else find this new allegation is "timed" since it was Geo. W last week?

Not that I mind...I'm just asking.

-- eubie (eubie@justasking.com), September 03, 1999.


Even if he does cocaine, if someone asks, all he needs to say to the american public for them to believe him is..."yes, I tried cocaine, but I did'nt inhale!"

-- Richard (trubeliever@webtv.net), September 03, 1999.

I have an idea why people like Clinton. Yes, they say he's doing a "good job", whatever that means. But they knew about Gennifer Flowers from the beginning. I think people did believe her. People have done things that even though their conscience tells them "...it's wrong" since forever, but I think we are living in a time when "conscience" is pretty doggone dull. Clinton allows for a certain smug satisfaction, even a sense of moral superiority. "Gee, he's the Prez, and he's worse than I am. Well, don't be so hard on the poor guy as long as he does a 'good job'." They just don't wake up to the truth that the "good job" Clinton has done is to sell our country down the river.

-- Mumsie (Shezdremn@aol.com), September 03, 1999.

Dan Lassiter was Clinton's chief campaign contributer in Arkansas, and then ran all state bonds for the Clinton state government. Dan Lassiter is currently serving a long sentence in a Federal prison for cocaine importation and dealing. I am sure this is merely a coincidence.

-- Spidey (in@jam.commie), September 03, 1999.


One wonders why Ken Starr did not do more with this information, and not rest his entire case for impeachment on the disgrace with Monica? This behavior is clearly illegal, while the Clinton supporters could claim, "A person's sex life is their own business." Any guesses?

-- Elaine Seavey (Gods1sheep@aol.com), September 03, 1999.

Where is Nancy Reagan?

"Just say no Bill"

-- David Butts (dciinc@aol.com), September 03, 1999.


If true, Congress could (and should) remove him from office immediately.

From Article II, Section 1, Paragraph 7: In case of the removal of the President from office, or of his death, resignation, or inability to discharge the powers and duties of the said office, the same shall devolve on the Vice President, and the Congress may by law provide for the case of removal, death, resignation or inability, both of the President and Vice President, declaring what officer shall then act as President, and such officer shall act accordingly, until the disability be removed, or a President shall be elected.

I can't think of a better disqualifying factor than drug addiction.

Perhaps WDC was afraid of loosing their best party 'source'. Rather than starting at the 'bottom' and working their way up, in the war on drugs, they should begin at the 'top' and work their way down. Naturally we would loose a great number of our 'public servants' this way. Best to go back to sleep America.

Go back and read Spidy's post. That tells you everything you need to know about Bill Clinton on this issue, unless you are in total denial of the way the world works. And of human nature.

Now, go back and read it again.

Get it?

Daughter drops dime on Energy Department official, wife

WASHINGTON (AP) - A senior policy adviser at the Energy Department and his wife, a well known anti-nuclear activist and lawyer, have been charged with growing and possessing marijuana after their 16-year-old daughter turned them in.

Robert Alvarez and his wife, Kathleen Tucker, turned themselves in to Takoma Park, Md. police on Monday, 11 days after their daughter, Kerry Tucker, told police the couple had drugs in their basement. They were released on their own recognizance.

The couple's lawyer, Steven Kupferberg, told The Washington Post that the charges ``will eventually be lowered to simple possession.''

Kupferberg said Tucker uses the marijuana to treat migraines and chronic muscle pain. He said their daughter was staying with family friends by order of a Montgomery County District Court judge.

Alvarez was fired from his politically appointed job at the Energy Department after their arrest.

Tucker helped bring national attention to the plight of Karen Silkwood, a lab worker at the Kerr-McGee Cimarron Plutonium Plant in Oklahoma who died in a suspicious car crash in 1974 after she went public with alleged safety problems at the plant. Her story was made into a film starring Meryl Streep.

Tucker went on to head the Health and Energy Institute, an advocacy group in Washington that deals with radiation health issues.
