Sen. Inhofe Documents Clintonβs Culpability in Chinagate
June 24, 1999
(Washington, D.C.): One of the most courageous and principled security policy
practitioners in
elected office today is Sen. Jim Inhofe (R-OK). Sen. Inhofe is a member of the Senate Armed
Services Committee β whose Readiness Subcommittee he chairs β and of the Senateβs Select
Committee on Intelligence. In these capacities, he has worked tirelessly to promote the Nationβs
security and to hold accountable those who are jeopardizing it.
In an impassioned speech on the Senate floor yesterday, Sen. Inhofe embellished on
themes
concerning President Clintonβs responsibility for the burgeoning scandal now known as
Chinagate that he initially brought to the attention of his colleagues on March 15th.
The Center
takes pride in circulating excerpts of the most recent address by this distinguished member of its
Board of Advisors.
The Clinton National Security Scandal
Senator James Inhofe
Senate Floor Statement
June 23, 1999
Mr. President,β¦I am going to pick up on the incredible but true story of the Clinton
Administrationβs betrayal of national security and the scandalous coverup that continues as we
speak. β¦
Though you would never realize it by listening to the national media or the Clinton spin
doctors,
the recently released Cox Report has revealed a wealth of information on how the Clinton
Administration has undermined national security to simultaneously pursue its misguided foreign
policies and self-serving domestic political agendas.
The Clinton Scandal
On the one hand, there is the mind-boggling story of how the Clinton Administration
deliberately
changed almost 50 years of bipartisan security policiesβrelaxing export restrictions, signing
waivers to allow technology transfers, ignoring Chinaβs violation of arms control agreements and
its theft of our nuclear secrets, opening up even more nuclear and high technology floodgates to
China and others-thus harming U.S. national security.
On the other hand, there is the continuing coverup-the effort to hide from Congress and the
American people the true damage that has been done to national security and the Clinton
administrationβs central role in allowing so much of it to happen on their watch.
Over three months ago β on March 15th βI spoke on this floor about Chinaβs
theft of the W-88
nuclear warhead. I spoke about how serious this was to our national security-how it was a story
with life and death implications for millions of Americans.
I told how President Clinton was directly responsible for downplaying the significance of
and
covering up this story. While the information on the W-88 design-the crown jewel of our nuclear
arsenalβwas stolen in the late 1980βs, the theft was first discovered in 1995 by this
administration. I told how it was this administration and this president who deliberately covered
up this vital information from Congress and the American people and, at the same time, lulled
our people into a false sense of security by repeating the lie that there were no nuclear missiles
targeted at Americaβs children.
At that time, I spoke of six proven incontrovertible factsβ¦and let me repeat them now:
President Clinton hosted over 100 campaign fundraisers in the White House, many with
Chinese
connectionsβ¦..
