Bill Clinton and FBI Director Louis Freeh

Louis Freeh who was FBI Director during the Clinton Administration is coming out with a book that promises to paint the Clinton Administration in a less than good light. Dr. Sanity has the story:

Clinton is Freehed
Louis Freeh, former FBI director under Bill Clinton is coming out with a book and from this report, it sounds like Bill Clinton's legacy (such as it is) will take a direct hit:

In the book, "My FBI," he writes, "The problem was with Bill Clinton -- the scandals and the rumored scandals, the incubating ones and the dying ones never ended. Whatever moral compass the president was consulting was leading him in the wrong direction. His closets were full of skeletons just waiting to burst out."

The director sought to distance himself from Clinton because of Whitewater, refusing a White House pass that would have enabled him to enter the building without signing in. This irked Clinton. "I wanted all my visits to be official," says Freeh. "When I sent the pass back with a note, I had no idea it would antagonize the president," he tells Wallace.

Returning the pass was only the start of the rift. Later, relations got so bad that President Clinton reportedly began referring to Freeh as "that F…ing Freeh." Says Freeh, "I don’t know how they referred to me and I really didn’t care," he says. "My role and my obligation was to conduct criminal investigations. He, unfortunately for the country and unfortunately for him, happened to be the subject of that investigation," Freeh says.

Looks like a good read -- and people called Regan the "Teflon" President. Clinton was the master. And the Clinton Library? I posted about this here and here are the two photos:
