It would be nice if Judicial Watch would go after real issues, instead of falling into these false issues, already disclosed and investigated issues that the democrats want to use against Republicans.

It ain't gonna happen. Judicial Watch is all about making money. Back in the Clintoon days, I was on their mailing list. They had obviously obtained the names of certified Clinton-Haters and sent out regular solicitations for donations. They were suing the Clinton Administration for this and for that and claiming to be uncovering all kinds of dirt. (Actually, none of their suits ever amounted to a hill of beans.) Fortunately, I never gave them any money.

Now, they have gotten the names of the Bush-Haters and here come the mail-outs asking for donations so JW can prove what crooks Bush and Cheney are. It's all a big joke, and klayman is raking in the dough.

The only difference is that when Klayman was attacking Clinton, he was either ignored by the press or depicted as a right-wing nut. Now, Judicial is a respected, non-partisan "Watchdog" group according to current press reports.

Well, it's not working; he took in almost 25 million in 2000 and he only took in 15 million in 2001. Wonder why????

The Clinton years were very good for Larry Klayman. And lest we forget, he filed suit during Recount Hell on behalf of Republican voters, iirc. At any rate, this is about getting one's hands on mailing lists.

As you pointed out, when Larry came to town, he bought the Republican lists, probably from the RNC, or conservative issue and publication outfits. Now that he's going after Cheney, he'll be able to get Dem lists and Dem donors from people like Sierra Club and NOW.

He works both sides of the street, and rakes in the dough big time! It's actually a stroke of financial genius that took some planning.

Of course, I never gave him a dime because I knew that when he was sending out funding requests in 1998, he wasn't doing it for us. Nope, the guys doing it for us, for the Constitution, worked somewhere else. The guys doing the heavy lifting against the Clintons were working for Ken Starr, and were being vilified by the nation for so doing.

Be Seeing You,

Chris
