A Kerry DOJ will be softer on terrorists, domestic criminals, and enforcing almost all laws. The PC mindset at the DOJ is probably a combo of lifers left over from the Clintoon era combined with the general publicity seeking tendencies of those to go after easy cases that will get them plenty of air-time, such as Martha but proceed with caution on cases that may cast themselves in a bad light, such as appearing to not be properly PC.
As an aside, Martha did not commit insider trading, she committed obstruction of justice which is well settled in the law as a crime and she will serve the time she deserves, unlike Clinton who was equally guilty of the same offense.
Let's call this a live thread now - Ashcroft about to be live on FNC any minute, with the announcement.
Holy Land Foundation has been protected by the clinton administration for many years. If I am not mistaken, one of their attornies is none other than Vernon Jordan.
Can't say I'm surprised...disgusted, yes ... surprised, no.
Thanks, Shermy.
"If I am not mistaken, one of their attornies is none other than Vernon Jordan."
Correct.
The evening after the Tulsa bombing a couple of their people were taken into custody ad held for a few days. Wonder if this will open that back up.
Which female democRAT was it that admired Osama for "building schools and helping the people"?
I was listening to Ashcroft and that name Elashi jumped out.....may be the same one who used to be associated with CAIR.

Whenever there is a prolonged conflict, someone has to be paying for all the bombs, guns, and bullets. I always figured that there must be Americans funding all sides in the Yugoslav wars.

(hoping you understand the joke ... your statement made me smile ... they should be kicked out)
Whether he was or was not, I suspect that last comment was pretty close to exactly right.
Shermy -- Not sure about those familial linkages either, but poking around brought up some proof that Joe Wilson was indeed a "strategic advisor" to Rock Creek Corp. In May of last year, he even has the email address: joewilson@rockcreekcorp.com.
Very strange stuff.

Their ignorance is hilarious. As of May 2003, Joseph Wilson's email address was joewilson@rockcreekcorp.com (See the May 2003 symposium on Africa at www.sahel-club.org/doc/conflict_sem0305_en.doc )
2) Mr Wilson's affiliation at several recent foreign policy conferences was listed as Rock Creek Corp. See ,e.g., http://www.mepc.org/public_asp/forums_chcs/30.asp and http://www.mepc.org/public_asp/forums_chcs/30.asp (Search for "Wilson" --e.g Iraqi Town Hall seminar on April 2003
3) If you look at Saudi Net's list of firms doing business in Saudi Arabia, you see Rock Creek Corporation-- see http://www.the-saudi.net/business-center/links-usa.htm
4) According to the Center for Contempory Arab Studies, a member of their Board is the President of Rock Creek Corporation --Mr Elias Aburdene . see http://www.ccasonline.org/events/Board.htm
5) Rock Creek Corporation is what is tactfully called a "private equity firm" See http://www.cohengroup.net/team-amb.html
6) An October 1996 article in the Washington Business Journal notes re Mr Elias Aburdene: "Franklin National Bank in Washington has hired the former head of Palmer National Bank's international private banking unit, in an effort to attract deposits from well-heeled foreign investors.

Shermy - Nevermind, looks like you guys had a big discussion about Wilson and Rock Creek a couple weeks ago.
"... M. Hussein Al Amoudi who reportedly controls the Rock Creek Corporation which has or had employed the flamboyant francophile former-Ambassador Joseph Wilson."
Thanks for including this info.
Wilson, Clarke and now Berger.....doesn't say much for Kerry advisors.
