China) and his son, James Riady, are Chinese agents.
In late 1995 and early 1996, Department of Energy intelligence analyst Notra
Trulock discovered evidence Chinese acquired American nuclear designs. He
took his findings to the FBI. A team of FBI and DOE officials traveled to
three weapons labs (Lawrence Livermore, Sandia, and Los Alamos) and pored
over travel and work records of lab scientists who had access to the
relevant technology. By February they had narrowed its focus to five
possible suspects. The main suspect, Wen Ho Lee, would be identified by
early 1997 -- but kept in his position with top-secret security clearance
until March 1999.
Justice Department lawyers inform Elizabeth Mann, a recent Chinese immigrant
who is the Arizona executive of American-based Communist Chinese corporate

Chinese officials keep American investigators away from crash scene. When
they are finally allowed access, they find the highly militarily sensitive
encryption chips are missing even though their encasing is intact.
(Encryption technology denies outsiders access to, or control over, American
satellites in space). Loral and Hughes Electronics' engineers give away
missile secrets to China in the ensuing investigation. Loral executive
Bernard Schwartz is top contributor to Clinton 1996 re-election campaign and
joined Ron Brown on numerous trade flights to China. He was also on
Clinton's short list of potential nominees for the defense secretary
position being vacated by William Perry. A Justice Department investigation
into the illegal transfer of missile technology is thwarted in early 1998
after President Clinton signs a waiver legally allowing the same type of
technology transfer the companies had been accused of doing illegally.

over the accident. Calls for an independent counsel to investigate Brown's
death are ignored by Janet Reno.

Filegate.
A senator sends a note to FBI Director Louis Freeh saying his staff
discovered IRS documents were included in the FBI files that found their way
into the White House. Recently released report by FBI General Counsel Howard
Shapiro made no mention of IRS documents. Shapiro would later give the White
House "the heads up" about information pertaining to the Filegate
investigation and an advanced copy of former-FBI agent Gary Aldrich's book,
Unlimited Access, that detailed drug use and loose security in the first
years of the Clinton administration. After leaving the FBI, Shapiro would

Yeah, we need a Bush back in the White House

the Elder Bush's corrupt regime.
Selling Anthrax spores to Saddam Hussein, obstructions
of justice, lying, pardons of 5 cabinet mebers,
abuses of power, iramscam, contrascam.

Not.

1) Empty headed ditto monkey.
2) A person who actually believes that Bush the Elder had nothing to do with
Iran Contra.
3) Someone who was prepubescent during the Reagan/Bush years.
Unless your choice is 3, I would submit that you need to check into your
local hospital and have yourself sterilized in order to preserve the gene
pool. Shrub is running on his name. If he was Gov. Nobody, a 1 1/2 term
Governor from Texas, do you really think he have gotten this far? So, if
he's running on his name he has to take the good with the bad. Poppy is
simply an unindicted felon, plain and simple! Thanks for playing.

And gosh... haven't the dems been complaining of republicans spewing
hatred???
Well gee... i'm thrilled that the true colors of the democrats have been
shown, so that all are truly equal in their hatred of change and their
hatred of seeing another point of view.
If you don't agree with a different point of view, it's not necessasary to
kill, butcher, poison, quarter, shoot, stab, or nuke it (or any combination
of before mentioned words).

Ok, wise one. Bush Jr. has only been in politics for 5 years. Gore has
made a career in politics for the last 20 years. What does Gore have to
boast about?
