GOP targeting Clinton on phone-call snooping

Republicans plan to seize on an allegation from the 1992 presidential campaign to tarnish Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-N.Y.) on the red-hot issue of government surveillance.

Government surveillance will be at the forefront of the political debate this fall as congressional Democrats and President Bush square off over legislation allowing electronic spying on U.S. soil without a warrant.

Republicans are focusing on an allegation in a recent book by two Pulitzer Prize-winning reporters, which suggests Clinton listened to a secretly recorded conversation between political opponents.

In their book about Clinton’s rise to power, Her Way, Don Van Natta Jr., an investigative reporter at The New York Times, and Jeff Gerth, who spent 30 years as an investigative reporter at the paper, wrote: “Hillary’s defense activities ranged from the inspirational to the microscopic to the down and dirty. She received memos about the status of various press inquiries; she vetted senior campaign aides; and she listened to a secretly recorded audiotape of a phone conversation of Clinton critics plotting their next attack.

Has anyone researched any of this?

1. If Gerth is associated with it then it is bull

2. The spying network Bush has set up is a very big reason I didnt vote for Hillary

I dont believe she (or Bill and their insiders) are above using anything they can against their perceived enemies, and having the vast unconstitutional spy network Bush has in place under the control of the Clintons wouldnt be good in my opinion.

I also believe if she's elected President her Congressional allies will block resolutions to stop spying on American soil to keep that apparatus in place to use against not just Republicans, but against those big name Democrats who didnt back her nomination.
