Not much mention of this LEFT WING American Terrorist in the liberal news media.

Rudolf is pretty far out there. Not only did he use the cowardly PLO tactic of terror bombs but his target selection was not logical. One can sorta see his mindset with abortion "clinics" but why bomb the city park? It was during the Olympics so it was sure to get publicity but what target could have been more innocent?
On the bright side, the article says that Rudolph will spend the rest of his life in Supermax in the rockies. I've seen that prison on A&E documentaries. It's literally hell on earth. I find that more appealing than a death sentence for Rudolph.
I remember when Ted Kacinzsky (The Unabomber) was captured and how he was put in a positive light by the media.
Where would these people's lives be without manufactured drama?
I don't see why they don't just withdraw his plea bargain and fry the SOB. After he made his deal he gets to release a *manifesto* showing absolutely no remorse and encouraging others to follow in his footsteps? That makes a lot of sense... NOT!
'When one of these extremists puts out a call to action, oftentimes others do try to follow in their footsteps,' said Vicki Saporta, head of the National Abortion Federation, which represents 400 US clinics. 'He clearly is speaking to the extremists who believe in justifiable homicide.'Now is it just me or isn't there in fact something 'odd' (or paradoxical?) about a person who believes in Unfettered Infanticide calling someone else an "extremist" and condemning "justifiable homicide" when she and her ilk believe in the exact same thing. As abortion if anything, sure could be called that by abortion proponents - especially those who believe in partial birth abortions.
It is constantly asserted by media that Rudolph hid in the Nantahala for the entire period the Feds couldn't find him. I got news for them, he walked into a beer joint (where I threw for the dart team) in Jonesborough, TN one afternoon (about five or six years ago) when trying to get away from a female who had latched onto him and he was rooming with; after two very quick beers and a call to a cab company, he left for the bus station and asked that we tell the woman when she showed up looking for him that he had taken a cab to the airport.
Among the items was a fully constructed 25-pound dynamite bomb filled with 20 pounds of screws as shrapnel found across the street from the National Guard Armory in Murphy, North Carolina.The armory was where federal investigators set up their command post to search for Rudolph after witnesses pointed them to the area following the January 1998 bombing of a Birmingham women's clinic.
I am not in law enforcement, so I don't know if it's fair for me to suggest that the failure to locate 25 lbs of dynamite across the street from a command post is incompetence, but it sure seems like that on first glance.
Just to stir the pot long after this article was posted. Today is July 18th, 2005. Eric Rudolph is going to prison forever. I hope nothing but terrible things happen to him there. God may have mercy on his soul, but I sure hope not.
Sincerely,
