TENNESSEE UNDERWORLD
Officials say Gore killed drug probe
Mayor: Top fund-raiser, pal had 'clout to shut down an ongoing investigation'

In Part 3, senior Tennessee law enforcement officials say Gore killed a major drug trafficking investigation in their state that allegedly implicated several of the vice president's long-time friends and supporters.

The series was researched and written by native Tennessee reporters Charles C. Thompson II and Tony Hays. A long-time veteran of network news, Thompson was a founding producer of ABC's "20/20," as well as Mike Wallace's producer at CBS's "60 Minutes." Hays is an experienced journalist whose recent 20-part series on narcotics trafficking received an award from the Tennessee Press Association.

SAVANNAH, Tenn. -- If you were rich and politically connected in Hardin County, Tenn., and were under scrutiny for drug dealing by the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation, or if you needed a permit from the Tennessee Valley Authority to run a sewer line on your property abutting the bank on Pickwick Lake, you might have gone to two of Al Gore's money men to get things straightened out.

****************
Gore supporters need to read all 3 parts of this series, the authors of which are respected journalists in their own right, one of whom was a producer for 60 Minutes.

Then come back and tell me that George Bush's arrest 24 years ago for barely being intoxicated and driving too slow compares.

Ron Reece: Your source for this story is worthless. Worldnetdaily.com is the vehicle of Joseph Farah, an extremist conspiracy theorist who sees plots behind his own toast and jam at breakfast. For those who don't know, Farah is one of the most relentless Vince Foster cultists. He also has suggested that Clinton is responsible for the outbreak of AIDS in Canada.
Where do these people come from? Why are they sited as sources for anything other than drivel they write? For those interested, Farah is currently on a campaign to find the Lost Ark, among other things. M2
