Subject: Wars and Rumors of War

		Wars and Rumors of War

		  by J. Orlin Grabbe

	Clinton continues to escalate the Iraqi phase of 
his 1996 Presidential Election Campaign.  Either five or 
seven F117 Stealth fighter planes were dispatched to 
Kuwait today from Ft. Bragg, North Carolina.  Kuwait 
was the only country in the region that would allow the 
U.S. to use its airstrips in its little foray into Iraq.  The 
more the public sees of Saddam Hussein's face, Clinton 
figures, the less they will notice the silly putty undulating 
in his own.  

	I reported that Hillary Clinton was plotting with 
three government thugs from I3 to kill competitor Dick 
Morris.  I said I3 worked for the Pentagon.  Some wanted 
to know if I really meant J3, the Operations Directorate of 
the Joint Chiefs of Staff.  No, I3 is not J3.  Further 
checking shows that I3 is actually part of the National 
Security Agency (NSA).  I am told that anyone in covert 
operations at a reasonable high level knows about I3.  
(Ask your friendly neighborhood spook to fill you in on 
what they do.) 

	Will Bill Clinton issue blanket pardons to 
convicted Whitewater and other felons?  Perhaps he 
would try, if he could resign his office and face no time 
himself. But  I hear he has about 100 years lined up ahead 
of him, if he wants to play hardball.  I suspect that Bill 
will not try too much funny stuff, but will be extremely 
cooperative in any way that will reduce his personal time 
spent in the calaboose (even though you can get all the 
drugs you need in federal prison these days).  

	I watched Susan McDougal's little performance on 
T.V.  I suspect her lawyer expects to be well-rewarded for 
this PR performance on behalf of Bill Clinton. Meanwhile, 
Susan put on her makeup and metal cuffs, and went to jail.  
All her huffing and puffing was based on one gripe:  no 
one had offered her a deal.  So she made up the deal she 
wished she had been offered, and then dramatically turned 
it down in a burst of publicity.  She played her role okay, 
but I thought Steve Reeves was much more impressive 
in *Hercules Unchained*.

	There is probably a lesson for Bill Clinton in all 
this.  But a few extra lines of coke should take away those 
blues.
