The average DNC voter has no idea what he or she is supporting. When they find out, our nation is set free.

Just one question: Why has Bush not reopened this case? I know he's had his hands full since Sept. 11, but did he show the slightest interest in this or any other Clinton "irregularity" during the first seven months of his tenure?

There seems to be an unwritten law that says incoming presidents will not investigate the scandals of the previous administration. It's akin to the law about not assassinating other heads of state. Those in power form a very elite club, and they all stick together. The rest of us are just the slaves who row the ship.

I don't mean to discourage you in finding the truth about Brown's death. As with Foster's death, the string of coincidences (missing photos, broken X-ray machines, improbable suicides, shoddy investigations, no autopsy, ...ad nauseum) is just too absurd for any thinking person to believe it was all just an unfortunate accident. Perhaps your method of spreading the truth in geometric progression will someday lead to a real investigation.

I respect your opinion. Sounds a lot like most of my elders. So I had plenty of time to think over their belief. My first dissent is that I am not a "Starr-Gazer" who is trying to pressure one individual and hitch all my hopes in one "Starr". People keep morphing political opinion into a court room. Justice would be sweet, but not necessary to save our country. What I am looking for is to bring discomfort to those who destroyed the whistle blowers' careers. Those who destroyed those careers, whether directly or indirectly, are doing this nation tremendous harm. The more that people learn about this, the more uncomfortable they will feel. It will let people know that this is unacceptable.

On the other hand, if this winds down to nothing, no objections, no rise in the outrage level, then the the course is set toward dictatorship.

Now for my second dissent. I don't think you fully understand what is going on in their heads. Machievelli helps explain some of the thought processes. According to Machievelli, severe punishments of former leaders will, in time, trigger desperation in failing leaders. That would ultimately destroy a republic. The leaders of this nation are applying that philosophy in a very extreme way, probably because of the FBI files.

Once public pressure builds, something will give. I don't know how for certain. It might be Bush or Ashcroft, who would be pressured into recalculating their plans. Or it might be a new history book that starts a chain reaction. Who knows? It could be some third party candidate who says it like it is, gets assassinated or illegally has his FBI file exposed, and gets massive public sympathy. It might be a new impeachment vote in the House, shot down in Senate, and then massive protests against Daschle. Or, perhaps this results in more history books that shift public opinion .2 percent and add to the credibility of the other history books that expose Clinton. Or perhaps BET is pressured into interviewing Chris Ruddy and Alan Keyes and this starts up all over again. Or some new, intrepid internet TV station becomes popular and runs it. Who knows what the future in media is? No one knows for certain. Free Republic TV could one day be a highly influential program.

Thus some of us need to keep this torch burning. Others need to keep other torches burning. So, please bear in mind that when you seek to advise someone that there's no point in fighting for Truth, you become part of the problem. Freegards....
