Enter Stage Right - A Journal of Modern Conservatism The fate of the alpha female By Joe Schembrie Recent revelations by biographer Gail Sheehy, alleging that Hillary Clinton ordered the bombing of Serbia, should not be surprising to veteran Clinton watchers. We've known since HillaryCare that Hillary is the dynamo for militant liberalism within the Clinton duo. And while Bill Clinton's perversion is well-known to one and all, Hillary is always at the heart of all the non-sexual ethical revelations: Whitewater, Cattle Futures, Vince Foster. Hillary is the Alpha Female of an amazonian troika that comprises the terrorist face of ...

Even trade wars have their shadow side. And even allies snoop around, when big money is at stake. So when negotiators from 134 World Trade Organization nations convene in Seattle next week to set the agenda for high-stakes trade talks, they'll be armed with every scrap of information they've been able to scoop up from sources both public and private. Information, some of it covertly gathered, will be the coin of the realm at the four-day WTO meeting. Richest by far will be the U.S. negotiating team, endowed with the latest economic and political intelligence gathered by the nation's $30 ...

Esquires are not Citizens of the United States of America Esquires by John E. Trumane all rights reserved As the story goes, there is a painting somewhere in the vast hallways of the Smithsonian museum which shows British soldiers boarding a sailing ship, muskets in hand. The ship is in an American port, and the soldiers are returning home after the War of 1812. There is a problem with this picture which may not be immediately apparent to the casual viewer. Our history books tell us that the British lost that war. History should also tell us that the ...

DENVER (AP) — Police have changed their policy on so-called no-knock search warrants because one man was killed in an apparently unfounded raid. Ismael Mena, 45, was shot eight times by Denver SWAT officers during a Sept. 29 raid. Officers said they found Mena in a shooting stance, pointing a gun at officers and refusing to lower it. Mena's son, Heriberto Mena, said his father's friends and neighbors think he may have thought he was protecting himself against an intruder. Police and Denver district attorney's office are investigating. Under the new policy, a police supervisor must now approve all requests ...

1. Are there any gun control measures you would support? Should every American citizen have unlimited access to firearms? Should citizens have access to every variety of firearm? Where does one draw the line -- after all, theoretically, if one has a natural right to arm one's self, one should have the natural right to arm one's self however one sees fit. In such a scenario, what intellectually prevents someone from owning a tank, or an anti-aircraft battery? There is no gun control measure I would support. Every law-biding, responsible adult citizen should have access to whatever firearms he or ...

Seattle has banned all 1st amendment rights to free speech in a fifty block area surrounding the WTO. Anyone speaking out or carrying any visible sign against WTO within this area will be arrested. A couple of hundred peaceful protesters who were singing patriotic songs have been hauled away to the old Sand Point Naval Air Station, where they will be incarcerated. The crowds are gathering. Many, many police in riot gear. Armored personel carriers and National Guard. Clinton and his SS guards in hotel behind lines of armed guards. Welcome to the new world order.

12/1/99 -- 1:07 PM Board Denies Parole Discharge For Aspiring Lawyer PHOENIX (AP) - A state agency refused today to lift an admitted murderer's lifetime parole, clouding the law school graduate's quest to become a practicing attorney.

Hamm, who passed the bar exam earlier this year, said after the 3-2 vote that he did not know whether he will try in the meantime to be allowed to practice. He said that because he remains on parole, it is uncertain whether ...

Did I miss something between last night and today? I went into FR and didn't have to log-in, and replied to one post as a test; then I did a search for any news on Seattle and all I get is from yesterday. Then I went to Drudge and there was this Link to excite.com. There were 50 arrested this A.M. and no mention of Clinton's arrival or where exactly the protesters were being restrained from the venue proper. Has Jim put this subject off-limits, or is it just "Old News"?
