That would be none other than former President Bill Clinton, who spoke this weekend at the funeral of Richard Scaife, a billionaire conservative and key figure in the so-called 鈥渞ight-wing conspiracy鈥?who spent millions touting presidential scandals and backing some of the most harsh critics of Clinton during his years in office.

But again, this type of danger is not without precedent. The concern in years gone by was over Australians fighting in Afghanistan or Somalia.
