And we all know Wallace is NOT A CONSERVATIVE!
A QUESTION For Everybody...
If Bill really did order BL's assassination, wasn't he in violation of the prohibition against direct assassination enected by Ford and Carter, and upheld by Reagan????
Doesn't it apply EXCEPT in a time of war??
I don't remember Billy declaring War, do you???

In a section of the order labeled "Restrictions on Intelligence Activities," Ford outlawed political assassination: Section 5(g), entitled "Prohibition on Assassination," states: "No employee of the United States Government shall engage in, or conspire to engage in, political assassination."
Since 1976, every U.S. president has upheld Ford's prohibition on assassinations. In 1978 President Carter issued an executive order with the chief purpose of reshaping the intelligence structure. In Section 2-305 of that order, Carter reaffirmed the U.S. prohibition on assassination.
In 1981, President Reagan, through Executive Order 12333, reiterated the assassination prohibition. Reagan was the last president to address the topic of political assassination. Because no subsequent executive order or piece of legislation has repealed the prohibition, it remains in effect.
