Louis Freeh Unprofessionally Blasts Clinton 60 Minutes and Book

Sorry that it's Drudge - but it is a book and 60 Minutes interview coming up. IMO Clinton should've kept his zipper up, but real sleazy of Freeh to unload like this. Freeh has a ton of skeletons in his own closet, including not having an FBI prepared to stop 9-11.

Former FBI Director Louis Freeh says publicly for the first time that his relationship with President Bill Clinton – the man who appointed him – was a terrible one because Clinton’s scandals made him a constant target of FBI investigations. Freeh discloses this and many other details of his dealings with the Clinton White House in a new bombshell book: 'My FBI : Bringing Down the Mafia, Investigating Bill Clinton, and Fighting the War on Terror' -- set for release next week.

Freeh has taped an interview with Mike Wallace and CBSNEWS '60 MINUTES' to be broadcast Sunday, the DRUDGE REPORT has learned.

In another revelation, Freeh says the former president let down the American people and the families of victims of the Khobar Towers terror attack in Saudi Arabia. After promising to bring to justice those responsible for the bombing that killed 19 and injured hundreds, Freeh says Clinton refused to personally ask Saudi Crown Prince Abdullah to allow the FBI to question bombing suspects the kingdom had in custody – the only way the bureau could secure the interviews, according to Freeh. Freeh writes in the book, “Bill Clinton raised the subject only to tell the crown prince that he understood the Saudis’ reluctance to cooperate and then he hit Abdullah up for a contribution to the Clinton Presidential Library.” Says Freeh, “That’s a fact that I am reporting.”

The most unsavory of those investigations was the one concerning Clinton and Lewinsky. The White House intern had kept a semen-stained dress as proof of her relationship and a Clinton blood sample was needed to match the DNA on the dress. “Well, it was like a bad movie and it was ridiculous that…Ken Starr and myself, the director of the FBI, find ourselves in that ridiculous position,” he tells Wallace. “But we did it…very carefully, very confidentially,” recalls Freeh. As he explains the plan in the book, Clinton was at a scheduled dinner and excused himself to go to the bathroom. Instead of the restroom, he entered another room where FBI medical technicians were waiting to take a blood sample.

He was horrible in his job and was never a good choice. he never tried to do anything better, he just complained over and over again.

60 minutes gives more attention to a wimpy has-been Republican cashing in on trashing Clinton, than to the forgeries and fraud and war profiteering perpetrated by the Bush/Cheney gang that got us into a war costing thousands of lives and hundreds of billions of dollars.

To think he spent the taxpayers money getting DNA off a semen stained dress. The only people ridiculous in this incident were Freeh and Starr who came off as two voyeurs. Freeh himself is a bad movie as he was incompetent, vengeful and an obvious right wing patsy.
