1. You mean Clinton Co started the camps.

If it was awarded in June 2000, the process started in early 2000.

2. I don't know that.... That is putting the cart before the horse...

I know * Co. has been planning this since before his selection and I know military leadership really likes rethuglicans. I do not know if Clinton had anything to do with them. I do know that they were not posted until way after he was no longer the president.

The documents are very strange...
