Dennis, this is where you and I disagree. From early on, Moose was scripted by the FBI. They--along with the ATF and other federal agencies--not Moose, were running the show. Unless you can show me that the Montgomery County Sheriff's Department had a profiler on staff, the actual profiling was done by the FBI.
It's also likely Moose was more in charge than you'd admit. Look -- the Feds under Ashcroft just recently dropped the Fed charges so as to allow STATE prosecution first. D'ya think that mayhaps the Ashcroftian FBI also let the locals -- that is, Chief "Black Em-Power" Moose -- run the sniper hunt show? If nay, well then pony up the goods that back up your assertion of Fed honchoing up, for in present and demonstrated condition your assertion is the less likely one.
But to get back to Idol Making 101 ... First rule is that Idols are made, not born. Moose is being made into an idol. I don't know about y'all but, personally, I don't cotton to idols. That the Idol of Moose is being crafted right in front of your face, for the purpose of future venerational acts to be forced upon you and I -- that is more important, long-trend-wise, than who pulled the leashes during the sniper hunt.
So very true. I don't why so many people were fooled into thinking that Moose was in charge of anything after about October 6th.
