'Pod, this is not an argument. First of all, you draw some equivalence between Janet Reno and John Ashcroft - I reject that out of hand. (Get back to me when Ashcroft burns down a compound with citizens inside, or kidnaps a child and sends him off to live under a dictatorship.) Secondly, your assertion that Klayman "couldn't be worse" is pure speculation and doesn't appear to be based on the only evidence we have, which is his past performance.
And I'm sorry - you seem like a decent guy - but you're not always right.
I believe the ump has tossed you. See you next time.
Would that be a Doris Meissner IRS Audit? The equivalent of "Carolina Umps?"
< grin> 'Pod
Look 'Vet, nobody hates Miz Rhino worse than i do for what happened to the BDers.
But the Injustice Department is detaining some guy (can't remember which one) w/o access to a lawyer or a court date because of alleged links to Al Quaeda. Ashcroft approves.
Ashcroft approves also of the Patriot Act. Secret evidence. snooping on your email or your phone calls w/o having to go before a judge.
In my opinion, he is absolutely as corrupt as she was/is. If he wasn't, he would refuse to use those powers and promulgate regulations to make sure they were never used. I think he asked for them (the new powers). There is a moral equivalence here. Maybe he hasn't approved the way out of hand assault and trumped up stuff that happened to the BDers. But, he has shown no inclination that i can see that he wouldn't. Seems way too autocratic/tyrannical to me. Again, my opinion.
AFA being tossed out of the game by the ump, reference my comment about "carolina refs."
BTW, you seem like a decent sort too. But, I am ALWAYS right. This is not debatable. :-). It is a fact of the universe. 'Pod
There are some one here who know the truth about JW. Thats all that matters. The others are as wrong about JW as they are about several other things they support on FR, including other former Pres. candidates and also in trashing Bush.
Ignorance.
(my scope with regard to internal FR politics is far more narrow than I realized..)
I never heard that before, but if true, it's even more interesting than the possible Perot connection, IMO.
It's time for some justice, "because no one is above the law."
Judge Roy Bean device
Will this help get the Audit underway?
Sad, Cartoon Boy. You don't even see the irony.
You heard what the man said: "over my dead body."
