Obviously this jerk is a former "Rockefeller Republican". For those who do not know what the term means, suffice it to say that it is the equivalent of the modern day RINO. Trouble is, back in the 50s-70s, the Republican party was dominated by these jerks. These guys were super liberal, and would be indistinguishable from Democrats today in their policies. Think Lincoln Chafee or Jim Jeffords.

Here are some other prominent Republicans of yore, who had similar anti-conservative viewpoints:

* Bob Packwood

* Lowell Weicker

* Earl Warren

* Warren Rudman

I could give more examples if you wish. This wing of the party was flushed down the toilet with the emergence of Ronald Reagan, thank god, but some dregs still survive.

...reserving the right for preemptive attacks against any power that would threaten our security, that really troubles me.

So he's saying we can never strike first, no matter that the threat is imminent and/or potentially devastating. This guy is so out of touch with reality. Out in Left field, so to speak.

Tim McVeigh's defense attorney

From the same source I cited:

Stephen Jones is an attorney working in Enid, OK. He is a former aide to Congressman Paul Findley.

Wait.

Wait.

OK. Tin foil hat ON!

ENID, Oklahoma (CNN) -- Stephen Jones, Timothy McVeigh's one-time lead attorney, is convinced that his former client exaggerated his own guilt to shield others from prosecution in the 1995 Oklahoma City bombing.

I view him as, in a sense, the most dangerous guy in the world because he commands enormous military power and he doesn't have to get the consent of anyone to use it. His assertion of special privileges as world policeman, reserving the right for preemptive attacks against any power that would threaten our security, that really troubles me.

So he is troubled that President Bush is willing to go after those that would threaten our security, well, I find that very troubling. Actually, I agree with him to this extent: President Bush is the most dangerous man in the world. He is dangerous to the terrorists, to the Democrats, and possibly the French. I, however, do not feel at all threatened by President Bush but I do feel threatened by the terrorists, the Democrats especially, and even sometimes the French.

"He shows off a woodcarving signed by his friend Yasser Arafat." I wonder if he also has a member of his family who is living some alternative lifestyle and he thinks that is great too and that the young wipper snappers don't respect our values. Give me a break he is very old and nobody remembers him for anything like his speech at the Berlin wall.

Well this congressman is either a liar or an idiot...maybe both?

He is a former aide to Congressman Paul Findley.

I am quite familiar with S. Jones, his work, and his writing re the OKC bombing case. I was, however, unaware of that particular association with Findley.

Tinfoil hat? It must get uncomfortably warm under there...

That, in a "nut"shell cinches up any idea of how delusional his thought process is.

Yes, I totally agree. Bush is the most dangerous man in the world: to all terrorists, communists, socialists and, more importantly, Demonrats.
