Of course, this all only applies if you want to insist that elections aren't massively rigged almost everyplace. Let alone who actually becomes the behind the scenes 'golden boy" and gets the air time and thereby gets 'picked" in the primaries.
I wish some Pakistanis would show up at my airport so I could parole them in and get a promotion.
Keep me posted.
There are only four Regional Directors, and they report directly to HQ.
We have not let any Mexican tuckers into the US yet. While this is being pushed, it has not happened yet.
Have you noticed how many on this forum attempt to defend the indefensible and apply some machivelian convoluted esoteric meaning to what the Prez and congress is doing?Just like the clinton's disciples. The dem's liberal programs are being initiated, but, they apply the aformentioned meaning the actions taken.
I have a problem with the misleading headlines, and the tabloid quality of their press releases.
Judicial Watch did not "uncover" anything related to the INS case, yet they claimed just that on another release. In fact, a citizen came to them with the information, and a need for help. Other citizens have come forth since as a result of that.
Neither Bush, nor Ashcroft had anything to do with the promotion of this individual anywhere, and to expect that either one of them could possibly have intimate knowledge of that level of Federal government operations is absurd.
There's something real creepy about using lies and distortions in a PR campaign promoting your ongoing struggle for truth and justice.
If Larry truly wants to win these battles, God Bless him and my apologies.
I also suggest that he should make whoever writes JW's press releases immediately available to the industry, and then find someone who can simply tell us the truth.
See...there we go again.
No, he's not.
There are others, among them the Landmark Legal Foundation, doing the very same thing.
Okay, if you really WANT Larry to succeed, you might want to put accountability in the right place and perspective. Your "he can't know everything" argument is a poor explanation, not to mention overly simplistic, as to why this man was promoted to a higher position within the INS. Of course Bush and Ashcroft cannot know EVERYTHING that goes on internally within government bureaucracy, but because of this, that gives them an even greater responsibility to appoint compentent people to those positions. Obviously, this did not happen, and you instead choose to blame Larry Klayman, one of the only people around fighting for Justice for the Cuban-Americans whose rights have seriously been infringed by the Federal Government.
So tell me, what has the Bush Administration or the Justice Department ever done to help the Cuban-Americans down in Miami whose rights have been infringed? Where is their accountability in the whole process?
You are attacking the wrong people here; Larry Klayman and Judicial Watch are doing EVERYTHING they can to help these people, while on the otherhand, the Justice Department is doing nothing to prosecute the real criminal here--those who didn't bother to obtain a search warrant to enter into a private citizen's home and those who harrassed peaceful protesters. The 1st and 4th Amendments were violated here by our own government and the Justice Department is doing nothing. Perhaps they have forgotten that American citizens have the right to peacefully assemble and protest and that Probable Cause and a search warrant is needed before they bust into someone's home. Ironically, Klayman and Judicial Watch are and you are attacking them.
Bush wouldn't even have known about this, and Ashcroft wasn't even in office yet.
More JW BS.
