Does anyone really think this happened there? I don't want to live in a town that everyone thinks got a problem

Answer 1

It's my understanding that the CIA operated a large drug-smuggling operation in Arkansas, but I'm not sure exactly where it was.  There may have been, and/or are still other airbases, surely - but, yes, it did occur during his presidency.  This is not to say that he may have known about it, except in some oblique sort of way.

People who say the airbase was "his" are wrong.  It belonged to the CIA and they are well-known for drug smuggling and using various countries for various drug-related reasons for financing their secret operations, destabilizing countries and their economies, etc.  The list is long.  

There's nothing that proves Clinton was a "drug king-pin" and to write about it like that is implying falsehoods.  I don't like Clinton, but saying that he was involved, is going too far.  Ask yourself who would benefit far more by drug-smuggling, and then, how would they benefit.
