President Bill Clinton Lost Nuclear Codes While in Office, New Book Claims
When you're President of the United States, you can lose a vote, you can lose popular
support, and you can lose a round of golf. But you're never, ever supposed to lose the biscuit.
That's what they call the card the president is meant to keep close at hand, bearing the codes that he has to have in order to launch a nuclear attack. And for several months during the Clinton administration, a former top military officer says they lost the biscuit.
SEVERAL. MONTHS. There was an uproar in the late '70s when the rumor surfaced that Carter left the "biscuit" in a suit that got sent to the cleaners - a matter of hours - yet the Clinton administration loses it for "several months" and it's no big deal. Yawn. Just silly American imperialism. But George Bush was responsible for 9/11 happening on his watch. Never mind the 8 prior years of complete and utter neglect of America and her security that passed under his predecessor, the depths of which we are only scratching the surface right now.
We couldn't impeach Clinton while the economy was good, right? Can we impeach him now?
That is all

Clinton got impeached.
Just didn't get convicted.
And there's a better than even chance he'll be back in the White House as "First Husband."
Jay, put down the gun and take your meds. Jay? Jay!!
Another General in another book said BillyBoy lost the biscuit for a few days in 1993. But as to the story you posted, when they came to change the codes, there was no follow up for several months by the DOD (at least, that was what Foxnews reported last night). So what really happened? Looks like we'll have to wait a hundred years until it gets declassified.
Trust me, you don't know the half of it... The story WILL come out eventually...
Was that book written by a former military aide called "Dereliction of Duty"? If so, it was quite an interesting read about how bubba didnt seem to give 2 squirts of piss about national security.
