thanks ctay for your honest and thoughtful critique.
Call me an "establishment" believer if you must, but I would not generalize the history of any agency based on Janet Reno and Ol' Pres "Tail that wags the Dog" Clinton's admin...much like Obama, when the fire heats up...suddenly a major news event is pushed to the front as a distraction...I bet this tragic failure was caused by a rushed need for news to cover-up...travel agency scandal or trying to push socialized health care? Who knows...
it doesn't appeart to me that you have a closed mind or a disregard for the truth. Excellent. There's good and bad in every gov't. agency... it's always a small faction that are operating outside the law. The day before 9/11/01, Rumsfeld reported that the DOD was missing 2.3 TRILLION dollars, never heard another word about it to my knowledge.
Have you ever watched the Clinton Chronicles? He ran a cocaine operation out of Mena, AR and the trail of dead bodies left in the wake of his political rise is amazing... mostly suicides no matter how many times they were shot.
These criminal activities are not limited to one party. The diff. parties exist only to make us think we have a choice.
