I know that the Clinton administration mishandled the situation and perpetuated the abuses. But in 93 & 94, many of us were upset about the murders of Sammy and Vicki Weaver, which did not happen on Clinton's watch. That's what the term "Ruby Ridge" is about. Everything else is partisan politics.

Some have theorized that the Elian Gonzales debacle cost Algore the White house. I wonder how much Ruby Ridge cost George the elder in the 92 election?

Your logic is swiss cheese.

I never said that we weren't upset about the murders of Sammy and Vicki. I did say that in '93 and '94 we were upset with the high level of support the operation seemed to receive by a presidential administration, after the fact.

One can be upset with the murders. One can be upset with the FBI Ruby Ridge operation of August of '92. One can then subsequently be upset when an presidential administration then comes along in '93 and '94 and endorses what happens in Ruby Ridge by its direct actions.
