Re: John Ashcroft
Declan McCullagh [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote But I wonder who really believes Ashcroft is being absolutely genuine in his responses to Feinstein? In the last election in Texas when G.W. Bush was running for governor he was accused by his opponent of only using the governvorship of Texas as a base to run for the presidency of the US. He promised to serve a full term. If the boss doesn't live up to promises why should the troops?? Virtually Raymond D. Mereniuk [EMAIL PROTECTED] "The Physical Layer Experts" http://www.fbn.bc.ca/cable1.html

Re: oppose nomination of John Ashcroft
Reno probably didn't expect the situation to, um, blow up in her face. It is also undisputed that if they wanted to avoid a show of force, they could have nabbed Koresh during his jogs around the property line or whatnot in the morning. Reese, you blather too much. -Declan At 09:19 PM 1/19/01 -1000, Reese wrote: At 11:54 PM 1/19/01 -0500, Declan McCullagh wrote: On Fri, Jan 19, 2001 at 04:13:32PM -1000, Reese wrote: Then why were the troops laying siege to the compound, instead of snatching koresh when he made one of his frequent trips into town? Because sometimes a show of force is perceved as necessary. oh geez. Why was it necessary to bring in tanks, special forces and gunships for overflights? Why, when if all they wanted was koresh, all they had to do was wait for him to go to town again, and snatch him off the street as he walked down the sidewalk? Who benefited from this "necessary" show of how forcefully Reno et al. could burn wooden buildings with people inside them? Yeah-yeah, the evidence is contested, re: who started the fires. What isn't contested is the armored vehicles poking gun muzzles through the walls. Reese

I also believe that neither Waco nor Ruby Ridge were expected to go down as they did. Neither Reno nor Clinton gained anything from these debacles. What I fault is the general trend toward "militarizing the police," especially the trend toward using federal police instead of local sheriffs and law enforcement. In both cases, Waco and Ruby Ridge, local law enforcement was bypassed, even "kept out of the loop." This should not be acceptable in a constitutional republic consisting of states. There are also fundamental problems with the War on Some Weapons, the War on Some Drugs, and the War on Some Religions. Claims that Randy Weaver had sawed an inch or so off a shotgun, part of an entrapment by Feds who wanted his cooperation in other matters, tell us how close we are coming to being a police state (though we are not yet there in any plausible sense). Claims that David Koresh was mingling in unapproved ways with young women, or was selling weapons illegally (never proved, even after the ashes had been sifted), should have been handled locally, not by calling in federal ninjas. As for Ashcroft, we'll see. Bush won, so Bush gets to appoint his staff. The whole "review by the Senate" thing is a relic of the McCarthy era, actually, and should be done away with. --Tim May -- Timothy C.

$50,000 in 90 days
Dear Friend: AS SEEN ON NATIONAL TV: Make over a half million dollars ($500,000+) every 4 to 5 months from your home for an investment of only $25 U.S. Dollars - one time! THANKS TO THE COMPUTER AGE AND THE INTERNET! BE A MILLIONAIRE LIKE OTHERS WITHIN A YEAR!! Before you say "Bull", please read the following. This is the letter you have been hearing about on the news lately. Due to the popularity of this letter on the internet, a national weekly news program recently devoted an entire show to the investigation of this program described below, to see if it really can make people money. The show also investigated whether or not the program was legal. Their findings proved once and for all that there are "absolutely no laws prohibiting the participation in the program and if people can follow the simple instructions, they are bound to make some mega bucks with only $25 out of pocket cost". DUE TO THE RECENT INCREASE OF POPULARITY RESPECT THIS PROGRAM HAS ATTAINED, IT IS CURRENTLY WORKING BETTER THAN EVER. This is what one had to say: "Thanks to this profitable opportunity. I was approached many times before but each time I passed on it. I am so glad I finally joined just to see what one could expect in return for the minimal effort and money required. To my astonishment, I received a total of $610,470.00 in 21 weeks, with money still coming in." Pam Hedland, Fort Lee, NJ Here is another testimonial: "This program has been around for a long time but I never believed in it. But one day when I received this again in the mail, I decided to gamble my $25 on it. I followed the simple instructions and walaa.3 weeks later the money started to come in. First month I only made $240.00 but the next 2 months after that I made a total of $290,000.00. So far, in the past 8months by re-entering the program, I have made over $710,000.00 and I am playing it again. The key to success in this program is to follow the simple steps and NOT change anything." More testimonials later but first, ** PRINT THIS NOW FOR YOUR FUTURE REFERENCE ** If you would like to make at least $500,000 every 4 to 5 months easily and comfortably, please read the following.THEN READ IT AGAIN AND AGAIN!!! FOLLOW THE SIMPLE INSTRUCTIONS BELOW AND YOUR FINANCIAL DREAMS WILL COME TRUE, GUARANTEED! INSTRUCTIONS: Order all 5 reports shown on the list below. For each report, send $5 CASH, THE NAME NUMBER OF THE REPORT YOU ARE ORDERING and YOUR E-MAIL ADDRESS to the person whose name appears ON THAT LIST next to the report. MAKE SURE YOUR RETURN ADDRESS IS ON YOUR ENVELOPE TOP LEFT CORNER in case of any mail problems. When you place your order, make sure you order each of the 5 reports. You will need all 5 reports so that you can save them on your computer and resell them. YOUR TOTAL COST $5 X 5 = $25.00. Within a few days you will receive, via e-mail, each of the 5 reports from these 5 different individuals. Save them on your computer so they will be accessible for you to send to the 1,000's of people who will order them from you. Also make a floppy of these reports and keep it on your desk in case something happens to your computer. IMPORTANT - DO NOT alter the names of the people who are listed next to each report, or their sequence on the list, in any way other than what is instructed below in steps 1 through 6 or you will lose out on a majority of your profits. Once you understand the way this works, you will also see how it does not work if you change it. Remember, this method has been tested, and if you alter it, it will NOTwork!!! People have tried to put their friends/relatives names on all five thinking they could get all the money. But it does not work this way. Believe us, we all have tried to be greedy and then nothing happened. So, DO NOT try to change anything other than what is instructed. Because if you do, it will not work for you. Remember, honesty reaps the reward!!! 1. After you have ordered all 5 reports, take this advertisement and REMOVE the name address of the person in REPORT #5. This person has made it through the cycle and is no doubt counting their fortune. 2. Move the name address in REPORT #4 down TO REPORT #5. 3. Move the name address in REPORT #3 down TO REPORT #4. 4. Move the name address in REPORT #2 down TO REPORT #3. 5. Move the name address in REPORT #1 down TO REPORT #2. 6. Insert YOUR name address in the REPORT #1 Position. PLEASE MAKE SURE you copy every name address ACCURATELY! Take this entire letter, with the modified list of names, and save it on your computer. DO NOT MAKE ANY OTHER CHANGES. Save this on a disk as well just in case you lose
