Hillary Clinton turns 60

Hillary Clinton turns 60 today.

In honor of Hillary's special day, I direct your attention to an article in the latest edition of Newsweek magazine, about the future president of these United States.

In "Papers? I Don't See Any Papers," Newsweek political writer Michael Isikoff looks into the massive cover-up by the Clintons to prevent access to Hillary's papers during her White House years.

"More than 21 months after its trove of records became subject to the Freedom of Information Act—barely one half of 1 percent of the 78 million pages of documents and 20 million e-mail messages at the federally funded facility are public, according to the National Archives," Isikoff writes.

What is in those papers the Clintons don't want Americans to see?

Hillary Clinton rivals Richard Nixon as the most flawed individual ever to seek the presidency. And we all know how Nixon's presidency turned out.

Just like the Nixon Tapes, the "Hillary Papers" could shed light into how morally corrupt these woman is. But knowning how powerful the Clintons are and how much control they have over the mainstream media, don't expect to see the Hillary Papers until after Madame Clinton is sworn into the presidency.

The Newsweek article is a revelation and uncharacterstic for a left-leaning publication.

More from Isikoff's article: Documents NEWSWEEK obtained under a FOIA request (made to the Archives in Washington, not the Clinton library) suggest that, while publicly saying he wants to ease restrictions on his records, Clinton has given the Archives private instructions to tightly control the disclosure of chunks of his archive. Among the document categories Clinton asked the Archives to "consider for withholding" in a November 2002 letter: "confidential communications" involving foreign-policy issues, "sensitive policy, personal or political" matters and "legal issues and advice" including all matters involving investigations by Congress, the Justice Department and independent counsels (a category that would cover, among other matters, Whitewater, Monica Lewinsky and the pardons of Marc Rich and others). Another restriction: "communications directly between the President and First Lady, and their families, unless routine in nature."
